Nuka Rant

SarcasticGoodGuy said:
The best we can hope for is another 3rd party fallout game. Obsidian won't be making it, no way will Todd, Pete and Emil let themselves be upstaged with another game like New Vegas. It's a shame because I'd want to see the fall of the Legion, or even what happens to the Shi.

So long as Bethesda don't touch the west coast, we'll be fine.

I wonder how Ubisoft or EB games will handle Fallout...
 
I was hoping for Hello Games' take on the franchise.

Yes guys, there will be deathclaws. No deathclaws.
You guys like feral ghouls? Here are some zombies.
Side quests? Sure.... side quests released in DLC.
3 factions to pick from: Brotherhood, Minutemen, NCR (we referenced NV, buy our game!)
The 3 factions are fighting over a large water pump.
There will be a multiplayer arena mode.
Supermutants are now krogans.
Charisma and intelligence are removed completely, it's now LEAPS. "loot, exploration, action points, strength"

Wrong.

'Yes, we will make the game... umm... multiplayer...'
 
Honestly it wouldn't surprise me at this point if they give the game to Telltale.
We could have a linear story with no branching options (except a few times where you can save a character only for them to stupidly die 10 minutes later), probably a Borderlands art style, and awesome quick time events.

Yeesh, I mean sure. I enjoyed their games (lol) but... not for Fallout.
 
I could see them trying to turn it into an MMO or multiplayer FPS with looting and crafting, complete with buyable currency and microtransactions. Considering how they've burned all their goodwill on this game and season pass, I see it only getting worse. But the funny thing is, the thing Besthesda won't realize, is that any hopes for the level of sales 4 had, will not happen again. Too many people feel burned, even cheated.

On that note, I wonder if the backlash from this game is actually further lowering our chances of seeing another Fallout game by Obsidian (if we just pretend for a second that there ever were any chances). The top hats at Beth don't strike me as guys who wouldn't let their huge ego get in the way. After this mess, I kinda doubt they would ever let Obsidian or anyone else prove that they'd handle the franchise better.

Don't forget the two sovereign masters of Bethesda are Cash Grabs and Laziness. If they can get someone else to make a Fallout game, which they get the money from, they will do it.

because we're negative and ungrateful.

Whenever someone calls me "Ungrateful" or "Entitled" or something like that, I like to remind them that I purchased the game, with my money. I'm not grateful, because I brought a product from a company and was ripped off.
 
The sad thing is, I'd rather pay

Which makes the whole thing a lot sadder.
I don't know about you, but the best chance we have is if MCA is allowed to work on Fallout 5 or whatever comes next.
But I doubt that'll happen, for starters, Bethesda do indeed have huge egos, they don't want anyone to prove they could do better than them. They let Obsidian do that once and it but them in the ass (people still prefer New Vegas over F4, in fact, I think the general opinion that F4 is a disapointment, even by Bethesda standards).

Maybe they learn from this experience, the fans who have stayed since Skyrim will only perish with time, and they need to win back the trust of their fans (those who enjoyed Oblivion and F3).
I think we're a lot closer to those guys than we like to admit, at least I need to check online somewhere.
But yeah, most people do indeed want another Obsidian Fallout game, but it's not in Bethesda's best interests to let them in the long run. It may make them money, but people would always say that Obsidian did it better (you'll get the odd person here or there who says NV is crap or so) but people generally prefer either 3 or NV.

I think I know why, and it's mostly because people see F3 with rose tinted glasses.
 
fallout 4 mediocre right to the end -nma i feel sorry for chimps that paid 50 dollars for the season pass but nuka world isn't worth getting angry over it's worthy of being mocked relentlessly
 
So I just installed it to finally finish up Fallout 4 and maybe write a review.
It blows. At least so far. You come in, get through a bunch of traps and kill a dude, BOOM you're the boss of three factions now. None of this shit makes sense.

What about where if you help them, they still like to talk shit about you? Classic.
Like I said in another thread as well, Unarmed users get the shaft in this DLC, whereas everyone else gets a broken weapon for their perk to burn through the game even faster than before.

You're going to be able to walk into every guild in TES 6 and become the leader by saying "hello."

No, you'll be given a backstory that you're the leader of every single faction present in the game, and the plot is you have to clear out dungeons and reward them to your factions. Then you'll have to fight whichever of your 26 armies you gave the least dungeons to.

TES VI : Valenwood

Making a review on something jarring and suprisingly as unfun as Nuka World should not be but it is is no easy task. There's so much to tell and in the mean time so little. But it's actually one of the lesser problems.

When I made this thread, I began writing it in review format. It quickly devolved into what it is now, a rant. Because I can't assess the pros and cons of a piece of shit. It's just a piece of shit, it's so jarringly wrong there's nothing else I can say about it.
 
I'm watching a clip of Preston Garvey getting "pissed off" (seriously his VA cannot emote to save his own life it seems) at the Sole Survivor for being a raider, saying the Minutemen will stop them and "You've betrayed us!"

Then in the same conversation he says "I'll follow your orders as a loyal Minuteman..."

He knows the Sole Survivor has done horrible shit, betrayed what the Minutemen stand for and says "I can never trust you again" yet stays loyal because the S.S is the General?

Yeah he won't be a follower anymore, fuckadoodledoo.
 
Again Bethesda being the "creative" people that they are have recyled a previous faction and ruined it. The Hubologists, a high tech faction with an understanding of space travel, have traveled to Nukaworld to get their hands on a fair ground ride UFO, which they intend to fly into space. Why do Bethesda insist on constantly bringing factions from previous games to their shitty east coast setting?
