    Over-Reaction? Justification?

    Would you like me to delete the post, then? Anyhow, I wanted to say that I agree completely with Moving Target, and no, I won't let my love for the originals and *actual* writing get in the way of a decent gaming experience. I am going to procure a copy of Fallout 3, and be entertained for...

    Over-Reaction? Justification?

    Recently, I read in the popular magazine "Game Informer" a letter by a Fallout fan who takes an optimistic viewpoint on Fallout 3. Needless to say, the person who wrote a response was supportive of that person, and proceeded to call people who took a more pessimistic view point stupid (that...

    Some suggested issues with Fallout 3 that aren't issues

    Back to the Brotherhood of Steel point. I am sure most of you are already aware of this on some level, but the Brotherhood of Steel does help people... so long as it benefits them in the end. For instance, do you think the Hub's police force was able to procure advanced Combat Armour and...

    Biggest Problem With Fallout 3?

    After reading some posts on this thread, my fear is confirmed; my opinion is backed. Bethesda, from reading interviews between them and magazines, is comprised of immature fools who believe that violent death is funny. It's physical humor at its worst. When I first saw their E3 gameplay...

    Biggest Problem With Fallout 3?

    The way I think of it, I would only be happy if Fallout 3 was an Isometric Turn Based RPG with sprite-based graphics, made by Interplay, of course. Well, that is not going to happen. The way I see it, Bethesda's new game is merely their own take on the Fallout series. I will play it, keeping in...

    Biggest Problem With Fallout 3?

    Sorry; I haven't monitored this thread in a while, but Caesar was dead when Lepidus was a Triumvir, I believe you are referring to Augustus (Octavian). Also, as my Avatar suggests, I named myself after the Consul and Censor Marcus AEmelius Lepidus, not the Triumvir of the same name (not that...

    Biggest Problem With Fallout 3?

    I agree completely with this point. Is it just me or does every Fallout game (excluding the original, of course) misunderstand the Brotherhood of Steel and think that they are a bunch of heroic saviours and guardians of the wastes. (I find this especially frustrating, because the greediness of...

    Biggest Problem With Fallout 3?

    I am not sure if somebody suggested this before, so by no means am I trying to beat a dead horse. Anyway, I was just wondering... If Bethesda were to, say, re-label their upcoming title Fallout: [subtitle], rather than claim that it was a direct sequel to Fallout, would you have less of a...

    some fallout-esque pictures

    Those are really nicely done. Did you use an old SLR cammera for them?

    Rate the avatar above yours.

    The Avatar above mine gets a 2 out of ten, because that guitar looks like something that comes with Guitar Hero, which I dislike. (The signature is pretty neat looking, though!)

    Things that happen to you in Fallout that you just laughed?

    I laughed when I finally figured out that Hubology is a parody of Scientology. Also, when the Vault City computer said that a shipping accident caused Vault 8 to recieve a crate of water chips, while the other Vault [Vault 13 ]recieved Vault 8's second GECK. Irony at its finest.

    Archetypal Hero?

    I am not sure whether or not the Dweller was born in Vault 13; if he wasn't, one may allow the point of "raised in a far away land". I also think that Vault 13 was consecrated after the Vault Dweller was born, so I decided to discount that point. I didn't think, however, of the Vault...

    Archetypal Hero?

    The game never stated details concerning the Vault Dweller's birth, so we can only assume no for that detail.

    Archetypal Hero?

    So, I was bored recently and decided to determine how standard the hero of Fallout is using a system called the "Raglan Hero Pattern", which is a system of 22 points used as a standard path a Hero follows in classical myths. However, this pattern can be tested against non-mythological...
