Fallout: New Vegas first review
- Thread starter WorstUsernameEver
- Start date
It's amusing how everybody here is discussing a bad review completely ignoring Pete Hines podcast that is linked in the initial post as well. And there is some interesting info there. Like it is stated (for a first time I believe) that low intelligence PCs in FNV will have special dumb dialogs just like in F1/2. And that was not in F3 if I'm correct. So again kudos to "Obsidian".

this is old, old, old news. so no...it's not really amusing at all that nobody is commenting on this.

Plus, it is not dumb dialogues just like in F1/2, but a few not-that-smart lines here and there. No ugha-ugha dialogues in New Vegas.

What? I don't get it. What's he saying?
Eternal said:I kind of wonder how often Obsidian checks NMA. I figure that Bethesda completely ignored us but I get the feeling some of the oldies at Obsidian still check the site every now and then
Probably look around.
Peronally I think there is even a high chance that New Vegas will poke fun at / make a reference to NMA or older Fallout Fans.
For example there are already 2 confirmed references to the Something Awful (Yes, I'm fully aware that some of you hate them) forums where Sawyer posts regulary.
And he locks the comments. I was going to suggest he play more than one day (if he did play it) and come back and write an honest, in depth review. Oh well.
The guys entitled to his opinion. The only problem is that the article in no way shows that his opinion has any foundation. It's basically every preview ever written combined into a couple of paragraphs. Then a couple of things thrown in like his praise for Fallout 3's amazing story and the fact that it's the first game.

I do trust Obsidian will deliver a much better story than that pile of crap Bethsoft tried to pass off.

Yeah, no reason to waste time listening to that guy. No way the reviewer played New Vegas yet... and how he liked "fallout" 3's story better is beyond me. He probably also loves Halo's story. This is also precisely the same reason I stopped reading reviews / previews a long time ago... the gaming "journalism" industry is pretty abysmal these days.
Oh, and while Mass Effect 2 was kind of fun, the story was pretty lame. Graphics were the best aspect of that game, but if the story/content blows, why waste time playing. Which is why I never understood while people loved military FPS games.

I'll reply to this after the embargo ended. I'm playing it for review purposes, so for now all I can say is that there's a problem with that review, that is going to happen a lot with the first reviews online. More after the embargo ends.

I think I can trust your opinion just a little bit more. I'm not worried about me liking the game - I know I'll be buying every Obsidian game that comes out. I don't want another Troika. It's other people that I'm worried about.

Wow, I hope no one really believe that review.I mean all that guy ranted about were the out dated graphics .No critique on combat,characters,quest,or consequences and choice. That was such a joke!

It's currently at a "Views temperature" (You'll understand if you use N4G) of 630 degrees! That means LOADS of people are reading this review and, most presumably, taking it seriously....
Reading over the review a few times it becomes blatantly obvious the reviewer hasn't touched the game:Everything he says is so vague, with a few word changes, it could be a review for any sequel. Note how he NEVER refers to ANYTHING specific in the game. He doesn't mention anything previews had already said. He is just some shit-stirrer trying to cause some controversy. : evil:
It's bastards like this guy who take sales away from developers, especially the fact it's the first so-called "review"
