Are you retarded or just a troll? The point of the Great War was that it didn't matter who caused it as the end result would have been the same. It was to show how the paranoia, nationalism, militarism, corruption and hogging of resources by the worlds nations and political officials lead to mankind's downfall. I guess that is too deep for you. I reckon you thought Fallout 4 was a storytelling masterpiece.
Well considering neither Bethesda or Zenimax have any noticeable investment from Chinese Investment or Tech firms (IE: Tencent) this is a pretty baseless prediction.
That's one perspective, I guess. Maybe they wanted to explain why rather than leaving it up to speculation that it was China. But I honestly think that leaving in that alien log was an accident on Bethesda's part.
In their Fallout Shelter or 76 trailer for China they edited a lot of stuff out that mentioned China's part in the Great War. Video games are big in China and they are a bigger market. All these game companies want that Chinese money. Just look at Sony. They censored any references about the Hong Kong protest and banned users that mentioned the Hong Kong protests for Chinese users. Expect more pandering from game companies to the Chinese market.
Because Bethesda wasn't the creator of Fallout. It was Interplay. In the previous Fallout's that you didn't bother to play or read up on on the Fallout Wiki probably because you don't have the attention span for, they explain this. If you actually played the originals you will see why most of us here either hate Fallout 3 or at best just think that it was a decent post-apocalyptic game but a bad Fallout game.
I know one day I'll play it, so I'm not going to read the lore.
Then buy it. It is on sale right now on Steam and GOG for their Winter Sale. I get the feeling though that you are going to get bored and hate it as unlike 3 Fallout 1 and 2 don't hold your hand and your stats actually matter when it comes to interacting with NPC's and what endings you get. You can't max out your Special stats and some dialogue is locked with certain NPC's if certain stats are too low.
I purchased it a few days ago, I just don't have a charger for my computer. And I know enough lore to carry a conversation about the franchise.
All you know is Fallout 3 and New Vegas which you consider not as good as 3. Again, if you actually knew the lore you would see why most of us here and on the Codex hate Bethesda Fallout's.
What are your thoughts on Dead Money?
It's probably, in my opinion, the best DLC. Although others here will say Old World Blues but I actually hated Old World Blues and thought that it was a over glorified house mod with annoying characters. In Dead Money I love the atmosphere, the lore of the Sierra Madre, the companions, the story and how your stats and perks matter in interacting with NPC's in the DLC. You have to really plan ahead before doing that DLC instead of jumping into it head on.
Mmm, I find it interesting how once you know what you're doing, it's extremely easy. I love just everything about it, the only issue is the only good weapon is the Holorifle. As a physical character, the Melee and unarmed weapons suck lol.
Because in Dead Money, like the survival horror games that inspired that DLC, you have to learn and adapt. Once you do you begin to get the hang of it. Yeah, I will agree that the melee and unarmed weapons aren't really that good but Honest Hearts and Lonesome Road kind of make up for it. The Holorifle is more or less a treat for energy weapon characters. Since I like playing a gunslinger character I didn't get much out of it.
I wouldn't call Operation Anchorage and Mothership Zeta average.
Ah, yes. The super linear main quest, where you can't actually roleplay because there are no choices, filled with fetch quests where you don't matter one bit because someone else could have done what you did, and it also doesn't make one lick of sense is better than New Vegas's. Sure.
Honest Hearts does not make up for it. At all. There isn't a unique Melee weapon in any DLC except Lonesome Road, and, even then, it's for Luck build. And Salt Upon Wounds Power Fist isn't that great. At least in OWB you get the Saturnite Fist.
Yes but to get it you have to play through Old World Blues.
Well, I don't really roleplay so that isn't much of a problem for me. And I think Zeta is good and Anchorage is slightly below average. You can roleplay as an evil character at the end with the FEV but I agree in the main quest you can't really roleplay very much.
I know, OWB is absolutely awful. I'll stick with Fist of Rawr lol. What did you think of The Pitt?Yes but to get it you have to play through Old World Blues.
I didn't think of it that way, I guess you're right, it does hurt the mentality the series had built up over the years. But I do still think logically it makes more sense that the aliens would do it. Then again, in our own timeline we came so close to nuclear war so many times it's possible that it was an accident.
Imagine not roleplaying in a roleplaying game.
It isn't. It's three hours of linear corridors shooting bullet sponges with characters that are just stereotypes. Thinking it's good is an insult to actual good DLC.
