Tim Cain on Fallout and Fallout 3

I do see it as a chance for the mainstream gaming community to embrace the Fallout series. From what I have seen, casual gamers that have been shown the original Fallout games were quick to appreciate the detail that went in to those games. Even if Fallout 3 is a gross mutation of the original quality of the series, it may just show the light to the uniformed masses about what it could/should have been. This could then persuade Bethesda to adopt a more traditional stance with further Fallout titles.
Yes, and TES forums are crowded with XBox 360 owners who played Oblivion and now demand an ESF V with depth and complexity of Daggerfall.

No, no, Morrowind fans are usually the eloquent ones. The average conversation on ESF goes more like this:

Morrowind fan's post: Oblivion is by no means the best RPG ever. It isn't even a real RPG, but more of an action/adventure game dumbed down for the console crowd. Reading your post I wonder if you played any *real* RPGs in the past (and no, Final Fantasy doesn't qualify). Once you have played legendary RPG classics like Neverwinter Nights, KotOR, and yes, Morrowind, *then* you can call yourself an RPG fan.

On other TES boards-related news, we have a guy starting a thread to complain about "Oblivion's nay-sayers" (the thread was then attacked by many many Daggerfall fans and was, of course, locked because "it would certainly result to flaming"), and another guy starting a thread because he was feeling extremely sad that his RESPAWNABLE NPC (the one you can get after completing the DB storyline) died. He said he had named him "Mike" and had been through a lot with him. OK...

Soon the TES boards will also be flooded with the PS3 Oblivion users. Given the hatred between PS and X-Box owners, the noob wars that will occur will be interesting :P

Edit: Maybe it's old, but I just found out that typing "Oblivion sucks" in the TES boards automatically gets changed to "The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is the greatest game in the history of the universe". :lol:
