It would be awesome if V101 was a sort of counterweight to Project Purity. What I mean is we could have James (now less of a Saint McGoodguy and more of an optimistic idealist) and Amata (who would be more pragmatic and slightly cynical having to deal with both dissidents inside and dangers...

Well, that's it then. Reward for helping the ghouls is a badly stiched mask, that spent an unhealthy amount of time being rubbed against ol' Roy's rotting ballsack. I shudder to think where he got the materials. That just made the only sorta gray moral choice (not so much thanks to the...

Personally, I could always relate to Burke, seeing as he seems to utterly despise the people of Capital Wasteland. Honestly, if you think about it, better view from your balcony is more valuable than 10 Megatons. Besides, flooding the TT with ghouls was out of the question for me due to...

Amata is just one position on the long list of pathetic, pointless characters. There is, however an extremely satisfying (and the most rational, given the circumstances) course of action during that quest: Download FNNCQ a fallout 3 slavery overhaul...

Apparently 'I couldn't have commited any of those crimes, I wasn't even born for most of the war' is not a good enough alibi for the NCR. Doesn't an accusation of war crime require a war crime to be accused of? Seriously though, Arcade is hunted when NCR wins, but escapes. This is...

You know, when I am stuck somewhere in any game, my usual plan includes googling a walkthrough, checking the wikia or if I'm exceptionally pissed off, leaving the game altogether. What is certainly not on my to-do list is bitching about it on a fan forum. It is not even on the 'remotely...

Ah. I stand corrected. On a related (to the topic at least) note, there was something that was bothering me for a while now. Let's assume for a moment that Fallout lore still stands in FO3. So does basic logic. Outside of those times when both are openly defied, that is. This leaves us with...

Morrowind creatures weren't level-scaled. The guys you are killing at Ghostgate are some grunts, the 'dreadful and unstoppable enemies' are the big 'Dagoth' guys mostly sitting in their fortresses. Morrowind was actually kinda good in that regard. For instance, stealing from a daedric shrine...

Yes. Oblivion, to be specific.

Point. But even so, the game failed to make me curious. And what's exploration without curiosity? If you encounter a ruin in FO3, do you ever think 'I wanna go in there, maybe I'll find something cool'? I don't. Because whatever I find, it'll be the same or very similar to stuff from the last...

Funny thing is FO3's main quest goes beyond just ripping from FO1 and FO2. Let me remind you: 1. You start by escaping an underground complex. You get to return to the complex during a sidequest. 2. You meet members of a knightly order near the begining of the game. You help them fight against...

You misunderstand my point. My point is that I don't feel compelled to explore in Fallout 3, because pretty much everything I'll ever find will be the same old crap. My point was not that I could make better weapons in GECK, but that Bethesda didn't bother to make them stand out and make them...

The weird part is that they made Sydney, who was actually a kinda decent, likable character. Nothing special really, but outstanding for FO3 standards. Combat oriented too, so that is just perfect companion material. There's even a mod that makes her a follower...

Hunting for parts of the Survivalist's journal is a show of true mastery in doing it well. Because you'll end up running around the entire Zion, discovering Clark's stashes, piecing together a story. And the best part? It's worth it in the end, because that is one hell of a story.

Good FO1 Dialogue 'The Unity will bring about the master race. Master! Master! One able to survive, or even thrive, in the wasteland. As long as there are differences, we will tear ourselves apart fighting each other. We need one race. Race! Race! One goal. Goal! Goal! One people . . . to move...

Dialogue 'I was worried about those Ghouls. Now I can get back to worrying about important things, like what color to dye my hair. Thanks for everything!' Random Tenpenny Resident. Pretty much everything from Dukov. Excuses the radiation immune companions make when you tell them to activate...

I found that what pushed me to exploration in such games was the promise of something unique. Could be an item, a note, information - anything. The point was that finding this elsewhere was rather unlikely. This does not happen in FO3. I didn't feel compelled to explore, because what would I...

That comparison between FO1 and FO3 doesn't make much sense to me. It's just a basic idea, almost every story can be summarised like that. If you want to compare two stories, go for the specific themes that appear in it. Like 'going to the previously locked headquarters of a knightly order after...

How about this?

AI of everything in Beth games should be changed. The NPCs usually have 3 options when in combat: 1. Charge! 2. Fire! 3. Run! There's not really much more. Ever seen someone take cover or try to get behind the enemy? How about a guy with a melee weapon charging at someone with a Gatling Laser...
