    New Vegas in 2020

    The biggest thing really is that the issues of NV are little things that can be tweaked for the most part but Fo4 and 76 have major integral problems aren't things that you can fix. You can add weapon sway, recoil and other things to NV. You can't replace the very structure and story of Fallout 4.

    This may also be an unpopular opinion but I dislike the idea that the world of Fallout has to be so rigidly 1950-1960s themed. I don't know if it qualifies as headcanon since they are in some of the games but more modern firearms like MP5s, P90s, and others are perfectly fine and exist in the...

    Another really minor one but one that bothers me is why there's such an inconsistency with the coloration of Advanced Power armor and why Mk. I and Mk. II aren't visually distinguished at all in game. Sometimes it's grey so light to the point where it's almost White and then sometimes it's pitch...

    I had always assumed that ghouls came about because of a mixture of radiation and airborne FEV.

    New Vegas in 2020

    The fact that bethesda dared to comment on the Mojave with a reference to something as stupid as a "lost alien city" hidden beneath the desert still angers me.

    New Vegas in 2020

    If you could go back in time and give them the resources and dev time necessary sure. Unfortunately the Obsidian of now isn't the Obsidian of back then and with how The Outer Worlds ended up I don't have a lot of faith in a hypothetical NV remake which is already an impossibility anyway.

    New Vegas in 2020

    I think it absolutely does. The vanilla gameplay and engine may not be as good as Fallout 4 but it's still leaps and bounds above Fallout 3. As far as the story and world building (which imo should be these game's greatest strength) very few games have come close and none of them are Fallout games.

    If T-60 exists at all it's a new post-war armor made by the Brotherhood after salvaging Enclave tech. T-65 or whatever from Fallout 76 isn't real. If they really wanted to make Advanced Power Armor pre-war then it makes even less sense to have the Secret Service wear this other super secret...

    We're the courier, but no package deliveries?

    Less quests outside of Vegas that require you to pop in and out of the strip would be nice as well. Kills the pacing of a questline when I can do 75% of it and then have to wait until I go to the strip to finish it which may be quite a while. It's strictly a roleplay thing which won't matter to...

    NCR is actually the best ending, isn't it

    The problem is Mr. House only needs to get lucky once to achieve a system where a benevolent benefactor like the Courier is unnecessary. The NCR on the other hand needs a lot of individual pieces to go right and for those pieces to not suffer over time. Once Mr. House gets the chip from Benny...

    Fallout 4: New Vegas

    This stuff is cool as a curiosity but it'll never replace New Vegas proper. Seems like a lot of effort to try and jury rig Fallout 4 to function how 3/NV did natively and without the 10+ years of mods that those games have. All Fallout 4 has over them is better gunplay and visuals (kinda...

    Gun Control

    Noted red book carrying socialists like John Locke, Thomas Hobbes and Adam Smith. :facepalm: Argue whether or not without (the undeniable) US intervention in South American politics they would have problems all you want but you have to be a real brainlet to act like US foreign policy hasn't...

    I guess in the interest of player choice sure but it feels like keeping a rabid dog in your room because you think it's cute.

    I agree with most of these in spirit but a lot of the specifics seem really out there and in the case of sparing Mr. House and putting him in a special robot body, completely ludicrous and lacking any motivation at all. I just can't come up with a reason a Courier would go against Mr. House but...

    NCR is actually the best ending, isn't it

    I disagree with this. Mr. House has pretty meticulously planned his moves after acquiring the chip for a very long time. With the NCR and Legion weakened from duking it out over the dam House with his army of (possibly upgraded) securitrons would pretty easily force out either faction. House I...

    NCR is actually the best ending, isn't it

    I think the biggest problem with this is that all of these positive outcomes are because of the Courier's direct intervention. It says a lot that in order for the NCR to not completely bungle the entire annexation of the Mojave/Legion War they have to have a deus ex machina main character come...

    Things you like from Fallout 3

    I'm surprised to see so much love for The Pitt honestly. I thought it was pretty bland except for the area where you collect the ingots and some of the cool weapons.
