Even if you "import" yourself into any game narrative, you're still generating a different "you" than You really are. Different stimuli = Different outcome, to say nothing of games with forced/fudged story arcs. Someone who's willing to steal as their in-game character might be far too...

Well VTOL is one thing but if every design is using the exact same VTOL engines and layout, even when they're shaped like fighter planes from WWII, it rubs me the wrong way. It's mostly that last one as the culprit: There's literally no need for that shape. Realism may not be your goal, but...

Hello everyone. I understand that this section isn't designed for advertisements of any kind, but it was the only place that seemed to fit the bill. Hence if it's deleted, no harm, no foul, but at least hear me out. Quite a while ago I was inspired to develop a forum-based nation-building RPG...

Yes, but consider how narrow that DR% range is, and how low the damage is. Throw in AC and DT and you're already shooting mothballs at the target.

The sore lack of vehicles or any mounted transportation puts a big dent into Mad Max-ish roving bands in southern deserts or great plains. Not that this can't be changed... Cults forming around technology they 'don't' understand would be fascinating to see, a cross between Warhammer 40k and the...

Armored: 50% DR JHP -> Enemy now has 75% DR -> 2x dmg = 20 nulled by 75% = 5 dmg AP -> Enemy now has 25% DR -> 1/2x dmg = 5 nulled by 25% = 3.75 dmg Armored: 55% DR JHP -> Enemy now has 80% DR -> 2x dmg = 20 nulled by 80% = 4 dmg AP -> Enemy now has 30% DR -> 1/2 dmg = 5 nulled by 30% = 3.5 dmg...

The fuck are you on about? "Western-centric?" "Naive sentiments?" Funfacts: - Fallout was made BY westerners, FOR westerners, IN a western culture, ABOUT western culture, FOR western consumption. This offends you or something? Tango Sierra. - Big and dark (not black, in any game) compared to...

Actually mother was referring to the FO2 design. She just thought the FO3 design was "stupid."

Not even a New York made of 100% art deco? Empire State Laser? Come on. Besides, more room for expanding divergence lore, like Communists doing 9/11, or Wall Street being replaced by some other portion of the city where all the energy conglomerates are headquartered.

I'm more surprised and disappointed that they didn't look more like established U.S. Army units. The Enclave's entire esthetic is too comically evil; while discussing the artwork and themes of Fallout, the first thing my mother responded to was the advanced power armor looking "malicious." Is it...

Man, what the heck do you think I was using? Lol. Well, that and a bunch of personal tweaks. RTS isn't flawless. In fact the entire "city guard" system was so jacked up I created scripted NPCs from scratch to fill the blank.

I finally came full circle and fell in love with Fallout 3 again. It's so empty that it's the perfect sandbox for free-form modding and roleplaying... why are you looking at me like that?

... You dug up a 9-year old topic, as your first post? Holy Cow. A blast from the past and kind of amusing, but again: Holy Cow.

Well now that you brought the topic up again, here's an update for you: - Found a nation. Rebuild Springvale. Raise an army. Secure DC. - Play as the Enclave. Begin as a Lieutenant with an assigned bunk in Raven Rock, leading a bum squad on busywork missions. Get bored when you realize the...

Fallout 3 squandered the possibilities of other pre-war government agencies or organizations still existing in modified form. The PA National Guard is just a collection of rotting bones, and the Enclave at a miraculously intact Site R could have easily been swapped out for a not-quite-Enclave...
