I dont care what they are saying about fallout 3.
It became quite apparent to me, after about 2 minutes that this game is not going to retain any of the charming qualities from the original games.
It looks and feels stiff, arcadish, and colorless. It is a shoot em up for kids "look what I can do mom", who were too young to play the orginal fallout anyway. Its all style and no substance.
Lifeless polgyonal debris has replaced the original warm blooded art concepts. No more bullet riddled corpses in a more realistic photodigitized format. NOPE. Look, I didnt expect the same dated graphics, but I didnt expect this pathetic first person shooter either.
The optional turn based combat is an insult to our intelligence.
From day one they had no intention of being faithful.
I dont see any of the tongue in cheek humor. Its a rather depressing greyish desolate landscape with a handful of sporadic 'baddies'. With a whole bunch of stupid over the top bazookas and missiles to kill them with.
There doesnt appear to be any cerebral influences. The original fallout was inspired by sci-fi films, 50's culture, political commentary.... Just the other day I watched a 70's post apocalyptic film "A boy and his dog" and I realized yet another awesome reference by Fallout with the scruffy dog and the NPC character Vic.
It was so amazing what they did in the originals!
So why the f$ck call this fallout 3? Why buy the franchise?
I didnt wait 10 years for this garbage.
It might be a good game... but this isnt fallout.
This is Oblivion:Far Cry 3.
I hope I am wrong. I really do.
