Hmm...It was never made clear to me whether or not they were classified as a species (mules and hinnys).
That said, since both mutants and ghouls are born as humans, I don't think they'd be considered a new species.
And to my knowledge, the defining difference between mutants and ghouls...
Ghouls are humans with their skin falling off. Same biological structure, just deformed.
You might be able to make the argument that Super Mutants are a different species, but being as they are the next evolutionary link from humans, they are more of a race of humans than they are a different...
YAAFM
Since when has Fallout ever been about the combat? One of the best parts of the first games was that the combat was almost completely ancillary. In FO3, it's so incredibly pervasive, it's disgusting. The FO3 combat system would have to be a LOT better to justify this.
All Fallout 2...
Well, since Bethesda isn't worried about canon, this could very easily become canon. That said, if this is the case, then there's no good goddamned reason for you to have to kill him.
I didn't realize there was a hill into town after I had already killed him. Imagine my surprise when I was walking up the main road of minefield, picking up mines, and all of a sudden I get shot in the arm.
I would have to say Arkansas was the best battle of the game. I think I brought him...
A Vic-type party member would be great for FOO. Not only to cover the flank, but for his repair skill. It's too damned expensive paying others to repair your weapons, and it's annoying being forced to increase your repair skill when the level cap is at 20.
This could be avoided by removing...
I like shooter games. The first game I remember playing is Wolfenstein 3D. Duke Nukem 3D, Goldeneye64 and Gears of War (the first one) are 3 of my top 5 favorite video games of all time. FO and FO2 are the other 2 :D
I was thinking Pennsylvania would make more sense as well. It would fit better with the "The Pitt" story.
That said, there are 4 commonwealths in America. Two are north of DC (Mass and PA). Though I imagine everything from Boston to Fairfax would have been wiped off the map. 5 of the 6 Ivy...
Trying not to get too far off topic, you're right that the AI isn't so great, but what are you talking about "a shooter without headshots"? Gears of War had the best headshots ever... Nothing more satisfying than the crack of the head exploding in a glorious shower of blood and brain matter.
I'm aware of that. I wanted to make sure she'd understand, which is why I didn't call her a self righteous bitch.
No...it's a little sapling, one leaf, 3 branches.

Has anyone else gone to Megaton after Raven Rock?
At Raven Rock, Nathan was wondering around talking about how the Enclave isn't who they say they are, etc. Then I went back to Megaton and he was there spouting off "God bless the Enclave" and so on...
confusing...
Well, considering they've developed and published the best selling computer RPG, computer Strategy game, and MMORPG of all time, I can't really blame them with not wanting to branch out.
I canceled my SC2 preorder when I found out they split the game into 3 full price releases. That pissed me...
