It was obviously a trap, if thats his best attempt at making well done liars, well, can't say im surprised. In fallout 2, after proving your worth and doing jobs to a shady leader for a gang of bad doers, the guy treat you as a good tool for the right job and offer to give you a holodisk...

Exactly my thoughts

Theres also one that is not from the GDC, but in which he is the speaker and gives a lot of details about it:

I dont, however, when Josh sawyer explicitly says what kind of things everyone did for vegas and almost every part i didnt find forgettable or i outright liked isnt attributed to the boy + after the GCC conference about HZD pretty much pointed such aspects to the guy i can't help but feel like...

Definitively was not perfect, no father is perfect at all.

Since i hadn't elaborate let me give an example Rost is a father figure to alloy and one of the most important characters for Alloy's character dev However he is a tool for the plot and as such he is extremely perfect about everything. He is exiled, treated like shit and excluded by the people...

He is the main writer for both games, was the main responsible for Zero dawn's writing either And well, the entire game is notorious by having really bland characters

The chosen one has a family, friends and a lot of people who know him as a character. Which is the main difference. No, but Frank horrigan is. He has the strength and intimidation + Charisma of a fearsome antagonist even if he is very simplistic in nature, it works as a force to be reckoned...

In game design, we learn that the more elements have strong emphasys on the story/thematic, the most importance we have to give said element to stand out and have importance in the plot. If a game revolves around starvation and general lack of food, there should be an in-game mechanic to...

It doesn't work if your character is part of said setting and interacted with ir previously. Your character should be part of the setting and if he isn't he can't be a real person, therefore, i can't take it seriously. Theres a reason The nameless one in PS:T, the mai. Character at disco...

Replaying Fallout 2 now, make me want to break the question and answer 2 instead But since this is between 1 and vegas, 1. 1 has quite bland characterization outside of talking heads and despite the attempts, story isn't that focused nor well structured but it has lots of background details...

So i finally got to finish Arcanum again, i have chosen to make a new char around the ideas i had in my first playthrough, which means playing a high tech Gunslinger. The main difference is that this time i neglected speech just to see what happens. The game starts and i just find out i...

As said, im also doing arcanum due to its similarities to FO, including being made by Cain himself Should i post impressions here after the playtrought ends either? Or just skip it and post Fo2 only?

Yeps i got the waterchip after i returned And yeps, i plan to play all of them vanilla, only exception are compatibility mods such as High res or Sfall, no unnoficial patches, fixt or stuff tho

I'm replaying the series this year + arcanum, however i rather play only the official titles since theres so many mods and a lot of them have no translation patches or anything remotely close to that. I just finished Fo1 to start with, went with a thief character, finished with 8 kills and...
