Giant Bomb interviews J.E. Sawyer

ToastMan

First time out of the vault
There's a video interview with project director J.E. Sawyer on New Vegas. They cover their Fallout roots, karma and reputation, including the difference between pissing off minor (Goodsprings) or major (NCR) factions, weapon mods and companions.<blockquote>GB: You guys at Obsidian have this background with the initial Fallout games, and this is kind of a spiritual successor to those. In the few months we got left before this game comes out, would you recommend people go out, get on Good Old Games or wherever, and kind of play the original Fallouts?

JES: I would always recommend that people play the original Fallouts, whether New Vegas is coming out or not, because I think they're really fun games.</blockquote>You heard the man.
 
Hehe loved that last answer.

Also liked what he said about companions - hopefully they will be worthwhile. I just hope they will solve the engine fuckups connected to them - I just found Fawkes in FO3, had him with me for a few hours (I like friendly supermutants and he really is a badass with his gatling laser) but the constant getting stuck behind objects and having to run around few hundred meters to get to me was really annoying, so I sent him away. Gamebryo just really sucks in this.
