    Uh, that would be because they never betrayed their roots. They knew exactly what game they were since the player was a little top down pixelized Tony Montana in GTA. They only added what would enchance to the open world mobster experience and ruthlessly cut away the chaff. They didn't add...

    *nebbish whine* "Weeeelll coming out of Skyrim, it was how do we tell a good story while maintaining a big open world where you can do what you want? Like, at the end of the day you are sacrificing some control over ... good flow of a story to let the players do whatever they want. Uhm, having a...

    What Makes A Good Fallout Game?

    If you just threw your script into Bethesda's P.O. Box absolutely royalty free, why would they ask you for anything? I'd just post it here on NMA in the fanfiction section, dude.

    What Makes A Good Fallout Game?

    Ffs, if anyone has been living in a building for more than a month's length of time make the interior look at bit clean. Dusted, debris not all over the floor. Skeletons cleaned out. New wallpaper put up. Even Raiders don't like stubbed toes.

    What Makes A Good Fallout Game?

    Let the kid dream damn it >:U We are always ranting and raving about how a chimp could do a better job than Bethesda on this forum, it's not like he has a particularly high bar to jump over. If he makes a two hour long quest with an engaging story and multiple paths I'll be more engaged than...

    What Makes A Good Fallout Game?

    Differences? Well, I mean they're two entirely separate beasts as gaming concepts. It's like describing the differences between a dog and a horse. But, okay. I can give you the definitions of each at least. Roleplaying is simply controlling a character or a party of characters in a...

    What Makes A Good Fallout Game?

    Again, it depends on the story you want to tell. If those themes highlight and add to, say, a current dilemma the main character must face? Then sure. What's not cool is a billion dry bytes of lore spread out on a bunch of disconnected terminals around the world because.

    What Makes A Good Fallout Game?

    I'm a little concerned with where you're going with this, and gotta pull a flag and call a timeout for a second. It sounds like you're wanting to shove in and expand on Fallout things for the sake of showcasing Fallout things. Stop. You are falling into the exact same trap Bethesda did. Nobody...

    Are there any FO5 references in FO4?

    Co'mon, we all know deep down it's the Cabot quest. Fo 5 is going to be about disturbing the cursed mummy of your great great great great granddad , who also happens to sound like Liam Neeson and is a scientist in all of the things. Those Ancient Zetans and their Cuthulu god can't be fought off...

    What Makes A Good Fallout Game?

    For the love of god, yes. Fallout should not be about pumping a hundred rounds into a bullet sponge until it dies. A maxed leveled 10 END character should still only be able to take 5 - 8 shots to the chest with a 5.56 round unarmored. Anything past that is superhuman, and should only be pushed...

    What Kind of Music is FALLOUT missing.

    I always viewed Fallout pre-war as a society that was celebrating another era's style as a throwback rather than just never evolving from the 50's. Same way we're having a nostalgia love affair with the 80's today, but we're not still making our media with synthesizers and 8 millimeter. So with...

    Fallout 4 DLC Tweet gets a lot of Flak

    I know Pete Hines is definitely feeling the love. Re-tweeting to at least two death threats a day on his twitter has been his new normal for about a year now. Still, I don't think he can actually do anything with that information. I was listeing to Matty's HAM radio podcast when he had Fo4's...

    Name a thing you DON'T hate in Fallout 4

    If it were me writing, I would have Nate and Norah be pre-war scientists working at MIT. During their breakfast with Codsworth they're having a mild philosophical debate about their experiments at work, Nora being more empathetic to synthetic rights and on the Railroad side of the issue...

    Name a thing you DON'T hate in Fallout 4

    Personally, I don't think there is any possible way of doing that pre-war set up without still making a mile wide contrived exception that will only serve to eventually break the story later down the road. And all of that for what? So we know the apocalypse we can spend all game observing...

    Name a thing you DON'T hate in Fallout 4

    Fallout 4 gave me a deep nostalgia for 2006 . . . ? Er, uh ... Oh, uh, I liked all the activity and intensity and unique animations and effort and protagonist observational dialogue put into the pre-war Sanctuary intro, before the game completely gave up.

    My experience roleplaying in Fallout 4.

    I was busy all last week engineering a way to utilize GitHub and an open contribution policy so something like that might be possible. One person making a whole new main quest? No. A small team? Unlikely that it'll take less than ten years. But if every contributor on the nexus were able to...

    My experience roleplaying in Fallout 4.

    Don't worry, I'm not. Just busting your balls and keeping NMA's rep up. Sorry, first post and a positive outlook on 4? That's a paddlin'. They did it to me on my first post, it's like Fight Club that way. :) In total honesty? I really like what you did to Preston, that's really funny. I just...

    Nuka World Discussion

    So how 'dark' do you think this DLC will go? Basing the DLC off the only thing that really can be compared with Fallout 4, the Star Wars Prequels, I believe this will be Bethesda's 'Revenge of the Sith'. They're going to take all the 'meh' criticism and go 'Oh man, quick! We must go so dark...
