I don't think that's due to Todd's age as much as it's due to him being an idiot.

I suppose he has to earn some credit seeing as the painting quest in Oblivion is about the only one in the entire freaking game that had enemies that were actually a challenge (the Painted Trolls).

Not bad. I like the Age of Conan shirt it's bundled with too. I'd consider buying it were I American. And had money to burn. And didn't think eBay was the hellish love spawn of Satan and Richard Nixon.

That's a general trend of the kiss-ass gaming journalism industry rather than the fault of any one developer. Until the easily impressed children who are wowed by parties and trips to E3 are replaced by real journalists, this will go on. Why does a developer have to slave away at making an...

Well.. I can't. I'm officially crap at shooters, action games or anything like that.

Sometimes. Other times it just makes you very dead. e.g. The Glow.

The BoS didn't raid the Hub because they traded with them; the Hub aided their survival. And it's not like they had much in the way of technology. Certainly not nuclear reactors which we KNOW they want since they rely on Power Armour but can't make their own. Neither did the Hub have a nuclear...

That always annoyed the hell out of me. "This barren wasteland shall kill us one day, SO LET'S FILL THAT COMFY TEMPLE WE JUST BUILT FULL OF TRAPS AND LIVE IN TENTS!" I'll always lament that there was no "You're all stupid and deserve to die GECK or no GECK, I'm outta here" dialogue option...

There's a problem with several radio stations operating in one area while a technology hoarding group apparently has no interest in seizing any of them.

One could also explain plasma rockets/grenade launchers as an anti-Power Armour weapon deployed by the Chinese. A few units were captured before the bombs fell and are hence very rare. There could even be a sort of side quest where you can turn in into the BoS or somebody for money/kudos or...

And the nuclear cars with their power sources still intact. And the working radio stations. And the big fat nuclear warhead in the middle of a town. Yar! We're the Brotherhood of Steel! Why should we scavenge for technology... oh, wait.

What makes me laugh is that not only was D.C.'s government psychotic enough to install killbots with military grade lasers at train stations. Not only do these killbots react violently for the incredible crime of forgetting your ticket.. but.. in 200 years, nobody has ever thought of looting...

Mistakes easily made if one only gives a superficial glance to Fallout, in order to pretend that they actually know anything about it. At least the ones who admit they know nothing of Fallout have a little more credibility.

I stopped taking anything Penny Arcade had to say seriously when they said Final Fantasy Tactics Advance was a good game.

Not to mention that fusion reactors wouldn't blow up at all. Even fusion bombs need fission triggers to start a chain reaction. Not that a fission reactor would blow up in that manner either, as I understand it. Todd has no clue. His entire reasoning seems to be "lolz Fallout is about nukular...

BURN HIM!! .. what? Fallout 3? No, I want to punish him because the beginning of that comic promised a gasoline/yeast/microwave related explosion and it didn't pay off.

Well hopefully Age of Decadence and Afterfall will get done before I go totally mad because of this FPS saturation. :P

So.. whatever happened to "We're following the spirit of Fallout 1" and "there'll be minimal pop-culture references, none of that Monty Python stuff"?

A viewpoint disturbingly common among Bethesda supporters on their forums, too.

Just to be clear, I for one don't consider Troika above criticism. However I am sick and tired of Troika being bashed for it's bugs, as if other games by other companies never had any! *All* games have bugs. For various reasons. To say "Troika wouldn't do Fallout 3 well because they make...
