I don't really mind the perspective as such, 1st, 3rd, what ever, but it kinda aches what kind of gameplay it demands today.

In any number of ways. The wasteland was ripe with new stories to tell that did not have to forcibly latch on to the elements of the original two other than the background lore and the central theme. BoS, SM’s, Enclave, ghouls, deathclaws... they could’ve been fables in the new land told by...

Bethesda's idea of "scavenging" is that a big bag of shit opened up in the sky and littered its contents all over the landscape for the player to pick up, anyway.

"It looks like a shooter so it has to work like a shooter." Yeah, that's how these games always go down. As shooters with just a bit of RPG dribbled on top. As far as combat goes. Too bad, as otherwise everything looks mostly fine.

It doesn’t really matter in the end ”who” made the game. If it was someone other than Bethesda, they’d be getting the shit thrown at them (or praise if the games were any good, as Bethesda would). But it just so happens, that it is indeed Bethesda who is the author of 3 sorry excuses of a...

It was a common complaint that the game was linear because of that southward U-turn, because it wasn't eeeeeeezy to go other routes (while the game was really easy even in harder difficulties). It was a stupid complaint and claim. Understandable, if one wasn't good at the game, but stupid in a...

I wish there had been one.

I don't really have arguments one way or another, nor do I wish to undermine you efforts to be, but if "reimagining Fallout" is the goal and to not "emulate it's mechanical foundations", I would think it'd be more rewarding to actually reimagine it, instead of just importing it to another engine...

Well, I wish you luck with your endeavor and hope you'll have fun with it. Sincerely. But I don't personally see what the real accomplishment there is (beyond "we managed to do something", which is just fine...if that's what you want to do) if the intent is to simply transfer the story and...

But why?.jpeg Does the world need a Fallout (1) FPS?

Fallout 3 was the biggest disappointment, left the worst taste in my mouth, and thusly is the worst game in the series. Bad games as they were, still, 4 was an expected continuation of the chosen shit ridden path, and PoS was decidedly a spinoff so not really worth considering. 76 is... not...

The experience is more important. I’ve always rejected the idea, that seems popular in certain circles, that Fallout is just an interactive storybook. The writing and lore do need to be adequate and respectful of the original style and quality, obviously, but it’s still just one part of the...

Same here.

Now they're both dead. Or, Nietzche is. God was never even alive.

I'm sure they could do it, and probably would too, but I sincerely hope they won't. Not every game needs to be a motherfucking first person shooter.

Wasteland 3 seems like the last best hope for something actually Fallout like. Gotta hope it sells and M$ allows the series to continue without turning it too into a first person shooter. As for Outer Worlds... I'm really not sold on the gameplay. FPS with bullet time... fucking hell... can a...

Have to see if it even matters at all which is better. Or if both are shit. The trailer to TOW wasn't very good. Just a run-off-the-mill FPS game with unfunny jokes. The only reason I'm even mildly interested at this is because of the people behind it and that it was only just revealed and we...

This all also reinforces the notion from 10 years ago that Fallout to Bethesda is just a petri dish to pour all kinds of shit in to see how it grows. And unlike before, now they might have noticed that black mold probably isn't healthy, and removing the fungi that produces it might also be...

Bethesda is kind of consistent in how they like dialog to work in their games. Already with Fallout 3 they said "Dialog wasn't the battle we wanted to take", and lateron with Fallout 4: "Now you don't have to click through the dialog, you can just walk away!" And now there's no dialog at all to...

Not hoping, they know. This thing’ll blow over at some point and then it’s all forgiven and forgotten. And it’s business as usual.
