The answer is Bethesda. This is how we ended up with Fallout franchise being completely different from Fallout 1 in depth, writing quality, atmosphere, internal world integrity. Fallout 1 was hard sci-fi which took itself seriously. Fallout 2 took some mis-steps but it was still a world...

So not only Jay Wilson was responsible for ruining Diablo 3, but Leonard Boyarsky gave it a kick in the nuts with his "original RPG ideas".

Well... I admire your enthusiasm.

That is certainly a lot of effort that went into creating a worse version of Fallout intro...

Will I get paid for playing Fallout 4? 'cuz that's the only way it's getting on my computer.

To rewrite Fallout 4, you have to start by rewriting the source code. Otherwise you're just trying to mod Call of Duty into Fallout.

We've arrived to the time when people actually call Fallout 3 "good RPG" on NMA. Oh my how things changed for the worse.

In terms of entertainment value Fallout 4 rests somewhere between cleaning up my cat's vomit and drinking chocolate milk 6 months past expiry date.

Swedish socialism only lasted even that long, because they still had some capitalism backbone in there generating the wealth.

Anyone who believes in communist/socialist ideas is a hopeless cretin, whose views were allowed to fester at a safe, big, comfortable distance away from any country which has tried to implement these ideologies into practice as its main system.

What happens if you get a quest from NPC1 to kill NPC2, and in the middle of the quest the game updates, and you moved NPC2 to another location, or removed NPC1, or changed the quest consequences, etc? How do you handle savegames in an open-world game that is constantly updating?

I've yet to see any proof that Bethesda aren't dense or inept. It's just that their ineptitude matches the quality of the product they're shooting for, aimed at the lowest common denominator. A good giveaway of their competence level is that their buggy games are usually fixed by fans.

This is a well-edited and articulated video, however it does not match my vision of a Fallout game. Fallout's most important qualities to me are: 1) The goal of imitating a PnP game on a computer, where the small description screen plays the role of a DM, and the gameplay rewards you for using...

Is the OP on drugs? I tried to read that post, but it's an incomprehensible mess. Guess that's what happens when you try to defend the indefensible.

Fallout 3 is like clinical depression. The world as gray and filled with stupid people.

I tried to read the OP and couldn't track what he was talking about...

Never expect Bethesda to successfully produce emotion in the player. These are the people who are giving you the invulnerable dog.

I've been saying this for years... Bethesda should take a cue from "Reign Of Fire" film's universe and merge Fallout and Elder Scrolls franchises into one. Post-apocalyptic dragons. It is not my kind of game, but it would be a very Bethesdurr thing to do.

It rhymes with "all out".

I had to do a double-take at VDWeller's post because he talks with the same seething disdain as I do.
