    Chris Avellone on Fallout 3

    In a game where danger only comes in the form of a few QTE encounters, I don't see how you wouldn't avoid the typical issues people have with escort quests.

    Neat indie post-apoc RPG After Reset announced

    But what color are the third zones!? The suspense is killing me.

    Obsidian CEO Talks Working on Fallout Again

    I'd kill for another New Vegas. If that falls under the purview of bad games, so be it.

    Last chance to buy Fallouts cheap on GOG

    I believe their distribution rights end after December 2013.

    Game journalism is a disgrace

    The story has had virtually no presence outside gaming forums and enthusiast blogs. It's fucking pathetic that none of the usual suspects wrote so much as a pip about it. You think it's unimportant "tired nonsense" then please elaborate and tell us why, in particular when it HAS sparked a lot...

    Game journalism is a disgrace

    Oh my god no. How low can this go? (I think these sorts of editorial bits slightly outside the site's usual subject matter are fine).

    J.E. Sawyer on the Legion, money and miscellanea

    This should be the old thread, but to access it you'd need both an account ($10) and the $10 archives upgrade (which I don't have). :shrug: That's a pretty fucked up way to describe Nipton. e:One thing I will say about the Legion is that Caesar was one of my favorite characters in the...

    J.E. Sawyer on the Legion, money and miscellanea

    Idk if you were aware but filtering posts by user on the SA forums is trivial (click on the question mark below the user avatar). Voilà. You don't need an account to do this. Not saying this isn't a neat digest, just that it could've been a whole lot simpler to compile in case you weren't...

    Rock Paper Shotgun Wasteland 2 interview

    Ah, 'kay. That's sensible and realistic.

    Rock Paper Shotgun Wasteland 2 interview

    I was surprised by this. Is Fargo suggesting the project might almost be complete in five months? With no engine, most of the writing unwritten, no art assets at this point in time, isn't he being very optimistic? I was thinking at least a year from now.

    J.E. Sawyer on Fallout weapon skills

    Then don't you think a disclaimer during character creation warning about the late appearance of EW would be enough, in so far as your complaint here is concerned? Questions of balance and viability should be separate considerations. It's a hard thing to manage because you don't want a...

    Fallout Archaeology: Foreigners about Fallout

    Heh, I was flipping through this very issue a few days ago. Reading old ŚGK numbers really hits home how the advent of free click-supported internet content has lowered editorial standards, but also how we choose to consume it. Anybody know of an internet archive with classic Polish gaming mags?

    Feargus Urquhart on how Obsidian and Bethesda view Fallout

    Hehe, Bethesda knowing the Fallout lore better than Urquhart. "Bethesda called the little Monopoly man Vault boy, whereas we used to call him Pip boy." (Or he accidentally said the opposite of what he meant).

    Bethesda gets FOOL rights, Interplay gets $2 million

    That sucks but seems to be the exception. In any case, with GOG so far they never took away the ability to download delisted games. We'll see come 2013. Edit: Reading up on it just now, it seems that at least for PlayStation users, the content was downloadable as long as it was purchased...

    Bethesda gets FOOL rights, Interplay gets $2 million

    There've been a number of games on GOG that were removed because of expired licence agreements or what not and in all the cases the games remain available for re-download to those that bought them beforehand. I don't know any of the legalese behind it, but it's a precedent that's been...

    Bethesda gets FOOL rights, Interplay gets $2 million

    End of an era. Things must be pretty desperate for Herve, and the figure doesn't even cover legal fees. I never truly expected the rights to revert - though man, what a fascinating shitstorm that would be -but I thought they'd eventually niggle their way to a double digit settlement. This is...

    The Vault is now on Curse.com

    A welcome move. Wikia pimping their sites is obnoxious; with all the horrible flash heavy bloat. This looks more inline with the initial wiki conception, even if at the end of the day for both parties it's a business.

    Unmasking the Gamers: J.E. Sawyer

    Yeah but that's exactly not what Sawyer was talking about. That conversation with Caesar was sort of awkwardly handled, as it seemed weird he'd have the patience to explain himself to a wasteland ignoramus he'd just met. That seemed contrary to his abrasive character. If handled a bit more...
