    A first look at Magic the Gathering - Fallout. Available March 8, 2024

    I assumed all these things from other franchises were self-contained spinoff games, not meant to be compatible with the main MtG game. Nope...they're all perfectly legal. If Wizards of the Coast isn't taking their game seriously anymore, why should anyone else? Well, I guess they're doing...

    A first look at Magic the Gathering - Fallout. Available March 8, 2024

    Me: "Hey, lemme show you something real quick. Go to google images and type...Magic the Gathering Fallout" Her: "What... ...huh?? Is this real?" Me: "Heheh.." Her: "Wow, I wonder what people are saying about this. What about that forum with all the old school Fallout fans? I bet they're gonna...

    Cain on Games (Tim Cain's YouTube Channel)

    I can just imagine the news headlines now... Post-apocalyptic: Forum Built on Hate Harbors Neo-Nazis An ancient Fallout forum full of bitter, longtime fans of Fallout 1, 2, and New Vegas has a secret. While many of its users spend most of their time posting about hating Bethesda, one of their...

    Cain on Games (Tim Cain's YouTube Channel)

    It's pretty rare to see a guy with a rainbow avatar and another guy with a swastika underneath his username happily coexisting on the same forum. Don't think I've ever seen that anywhere else on the internet. As for Tim Cain's videos, I've seen a few so far and they offer some cool insight. I...

    Does anyone else realize how stupid Arthur Maxson being sent East Coast is?

    At least they set their game on the opposite end of the country and didn't directly invalidate any of the events of the previous games. Imagine if Fallout 3 were set on the West Coast but it was otherwise exactly the same, and then Bethesda said that Fallout 1 and 2 are just "Legends" and...

    Does anyone else realize how stupid Arthur Maxson being sent East Coast is?

    I wasn't trying to be pedantic, I just took you literally and honestly thought it was what you were saying. Your claim seemed like a huge overexaggeration but I see what you meant now. -- Wow, yeah they must've sent the Maxson kid later. It's pretty hard to justify or explain that decision...

    Most powerful Fallout 3 character

    If you're a fan of Fallout 3 this is a dangerous place for you to be. The franchise was sold to Bethesda; fans of Fallout 1 and 2 were (and are) not happy with their treatment of the franchise, and this is a very old school forum. Don't misunderstand, I have great respect for these veteran fans...

    Why do people think Fallout 3 was actually good?

    I agree, VATS is not tactical combat, and Borderlands is a better game if the user wants a "gunporn" game. Borderlands doesn't match up to Fallout 3 when it comes to being open-world or having RPG elements such as side quests, dialogue, lore, etc. though. Borderlands was very linear and very...

    Favorite Fallout 3 Quest

    My favorite Fallout 3 quest...hmm...in the base game, most of the vanilla quests are around the same level of fun for me. If I had to pick one, it'd be helping those ghouls get into Tenpenny Tower. Some people hate the quest, some claim it has huge moral complexity. I don't think it's all that...

    Does anyone else realize how stupid Arthur Maxson being sent East Coast is?

    Things Fallout 3 tried to do (yes, they did try, whether or not they succeeded is another matter): Consistent lore building References to the first two games Open world genre Real-time combat First person view Cool environments to explore Optional side-quests with different outcomes So...

    Your opinion is worthless

    Speaking from personal experience, it can be exhausting and frustrating for a fan when part of the fandom will relentlessly bash certain Fallout games at every opportunity. I used to not understand why they would do it, and I'd wonder why all Fallout fans couldn't just get along and stop with...

    Some NVIDIA GeForce drivers render Fallout 1 in black & white monochrome

    I'm making this post to help anyone in the present or future who runs into a problem with Fallout 1 or 2 displaying in pixelated black and white or monochrome. Last night I ran into a huge display problem in Fallout 1, on a PC that previously ran it no problem. I use Windows 7 64 bit, NVIDIA...

    There being more than one species of Super Mutant is stupid

    Risewild just leaked Fallout 5 without so much as a spoiler warning

    There being more than one species of Super Mutant is stupid

    I was about to write "This is why they won't ever make a Fallout game on a different continent - if they did, they won't be able to come up with a believable excuse to recycle the factions again!", but then I really thought about what Gizmojunk just said and...yeah, even if the game were set on...

    There being more than one species of Super Mutant is stupid

    Risewild - " It took them only 1 year to go from Broken Hills to Washington." While this travel time of 1 year is possible, especially if the Power Armor benefits their speed - where did you find the information to on their departure and arrival dates or travel time? I'm not doubting you, I...

    There being more than one species of Super Mutant is stupid

    I thought so, too - Power Armor in the StarCraft series works like this. But Ugly Kid said "the BoS walked from coast to coast, while most of them were wearing power armor", so it seemed like he saw the presence of power armor slowing the group down. I can see that happening; maybe because not...

    There being more than one species of Super Mutant is stupid

    Exactly this. It's all calculated corporate brand exploitation and nostalgia-baiting. A google search also shows this: 2161 - Fallout 1 begins 2241 - Fallout 2 begins 2254 - A Brotherhood of Steel squad led by Owyn Lyons is sent to Washington, D.C. on the East Coast to search for...

    There being more than one species of Super Mutant is stupid

    I get a new e-mail notification for a thread over a year old and the same thing is still going on in it. Statements about how poorly Bethesda, specifically, has handled the franchise as a whole, conveniently ignoring the fact that every Fallout game, regardless of who produced it, has had...

    Fallout 76 now has $10 monthly and $100 annual subscription

    I'm pretty sure during my attempts to defend Fallout 76 I said there was no way Bethesda would be actually stupid enough to add pay-to-win microtransactions or monthly subscription fees to the game. Looks like I was very wrong. Allow me to make amends for my failure by posting a video...
