That shot of the
Vault Dweller and
Dogmeat walking through the remains of suburbia is nice; certainly puts me in mind of
The Road, which many of the developers have name-checked. (If
Bethesda could capture even five minutes of
that atmosphere, then it might go some way to repaying the insult.)
Come to think of it, there's my vote for
Favourite Post-appocalyptic Project in Development; the movie of
The Road. Every time I sat down to read that book, I needed a hug from my girlfriend afterwards to ward off the sense of hopeless doom.
Still, those
Supermutants and
Ghouls look absolutely terrible . The main problem is that not one of them looks as though it could string a sentence together, let alone hold a personality beyond
"Supermutant SMASH!" or
"urghhh! braiiiiinzzzz!"... Horrible, horrible, generic monsters.
Perhaps, if I just wander around in the back-waters of
Fallout 3, scratching a hobo living with my trusty
hunting rifle slung across my back and dog by my side, without putting on a clunking suit of
Power Armour or wielding a
minigun in anger, then it might not be that bad?
D'yer think?
