Lockpick and science. Or one of the two I suppose as you can usually hack a computer to open a door or safe you could have just lockpicked. But either one is the frigging same, over and over again to the point I'd really just have a skip button. In fact each has a 'perk' to try a lock...

I have no problem believing you'd take pleasure in capping Moira in reloading but I find it difficult to believe you could play through this slop a second time. I can barely manage my first play though and it's just painful. I feel compelled to finish and it's taking up most of my free time...

While playing Fallout 3, and leveling up my character, I can’t help but notice that everthing is pretty much the same and there's no reason to replay the game at all. I’ve decided that starting a new game with a guy geared toward being a Ninja would be a completely pointless timesink in which to...

Didn't think I hit anything plot related to spoil or would have.

The main problem is that Bethesda is completely incapable of handling actual adult thought and concepts. They at best can refer to them, often in a childish fashion, that talks about sex like they're in teh 4th grade and afraid they're going to get in trouble if someone older than them...

[spoiler:7da9d88dc5] Yes. Today I found a magic book turning men into ghouls so they could cultishly worship a Yugoloth demon into existance. Yesterday I found a vampire with a flaming sword, then I got a flaming sword, and the day before I met fire breathing fire ants. Beth has...

Today while playing FO3 I found a magic book was turning men into ghouls to worship a Yugoloth demon and bring it into the world through cultish worship. I am playing Morrowind and Oblivion.

I'm not sure there is any non gory death. It seems every single time I shoot someone they decapitate. Like 80% of the time from level 5 on. In and out of Vats, it's getting ridiculous. Even if I am shooting the head it's silly for the head to come off that frigging often. The giggle...

Hand holding can go too far much of the time, although I think a lot of the immersion this and imersion that complaints about HUDs are silly. Still. Removing all waypoints in the game to everyone seems kind of retarded to me considering there are no other directions in the game whatsoever...

The thing of it is, I'd actually really like a confirmation that Todd and Pete even played Fallout 1 & 2 through to completion. I mean really played rather than having someone else give them a run down and bullet points of the highlights. I just don't see anything but a cursory resemblance...

I seriously doubt Beth has the skills required to develop a new system. Nor do they have the mentality to attempt anything really new. Fallout 3 pretty much fails on any attempt at innovation and should be discarded. Any use of the term 'evolution' when referring to it should be purged...

The good reviews still pouring in for FO3 are just insulting. You seriously have to wonder if most reviewers even played the game. What amuses me is how buggy and near unplayable the game appears to be across all three of it's platforms. I mean that's just hilarious to me. It's unfortunate...

Nope. Moly was trying to break new ground with a fantasy that grew with you, and it was a brilliant idea if you listened to him as he was building the game up. Originally the whole game would age with you, including the trees that would grow as you did. He was trying to be VERY realistic...

Ah, Beth's Labor of Love that makes you feel dirty.

Well the original Fable to me sucked collossal Donkey balls. The story sucked, made very little to no sense, the advancement system was flawed to the point where since you aged and no one else did odds are you'd look older than you mom by the time you met her, had magician's choices which...
