I dont want Fallout 3 from...

Grum

First time out of the vault
I dont want Fallout 3 from "new" BIS I want fallout form "old" BIS.

Old BIS which made a Fallout 1, Fallout2, Planescape:Torment.

I don’t want to have another "LionHeart" Game, from "new" BIS! Yes i like Fallout, no i LOVE it! But looking on the games which "new" BIS made for the last 2 years, i don’t want to see Fallout 3 from them.

Before telling me that i’m an idiot please read this.

And think do you want Action-Fallout like LionHeart with new SPECIAL system like in LionHeart, which "new" BIS wanted to make,
OR
you want RolePlay-Fallout, with almost old SPECIAL system, like good old Fallout 1/2 ?

Here are some interesting quotes from http://www.nma-fallout.com/article.php?id=1594 - Fallout 3/Van Buren Unofficial FAQ

Real-time vs. turn-based combat isn't an aspect of character development, but it is an aspect of gameplay. Some people don't like playing through combat, even in a good system. Some people absolutely hate dialogue, even when it's well written. To accommodate different types of players, we do need to spread our resources.
For me it’s more a definition of action game with less dialogs and more combat.

Will there be talking animals in Fallout 3?
There will be no talking animals or plants in Van Buren.
that means no old humor in the game. And talking animals and plants are part of Fallout!

How many skills will there be in Fallout 3?
Right now, I have a list of 14 skills:
:arrow: 3 combat
:arrow: 3 diplomacy
:arrow: 4 science (including Outdoorsman)
:arrow: 4 stealth.
Like in LionHeart. Just open the character creation kit and you will see what i mean…

Please read the Fallout 3/Van Buren Unofficial FAQ carefully and ask your self a question:
DO YOU WANT FALLOUT 3 LIKE LIONHEART
OR
YOU WANT FALLOUT 3 LIKE FALLOUT 1 / 2?

I choose FALLOUT 3 LIKE FALLOUT 1 / 2, may be from Troika Games! and don’t want to see Van Buren as fallout 3! Because it look like LionHeart!

With best regards one of Fallout Fan!

P.S. I hope one day to see FALLOUT 3... like a real Fallout game!

P.P.S. AND STOP SPECULATIONS WITH FALLOUT 3!


UPD by Grum: I think i posted topic in wrong place :roll:
 
I think you bring up an interesting key point - that even if BIS made Fallout 3, half of the hardcore Fallout fans wouldn't like it.

Perhaps Fallout 3 was going for a mainstream, broader appeal than the Fallout Hardcore?

However, I would like to elaborate upon a few of your points:

For me it’s more a definition of action game with less dialogs and more combat.

I don't think the FAQ was saying that all - I think what the FAQ was saying was that, yes, there is a large demographic that wants to play a game, and not read a game. So, its important to pander to them too.

that means no old humor in the game. And talking animals and plants are part of Fallout!

Forgive me, my memory isn't really good - did Fallout 1 have talking and animals and stuff? The only thing I can remember is the "Moo, I say" secret encounter. Personally, talking plants / animals is a bit "out there" for what is essentially a science fiction game.

"Broader appeal", eh? "Hardcore", eh?
