Fallout 3
I noticed Fallout 3 on steam just now. Any reports from the field? I LOVED Fallout and Fallout 2. I'll pretend the Xbox version was never released though. This isn't the same play style of course, but if the universe fits the first couple then I am interested.

I played it a bit on a friend's XBox. It was beautiful on the HD tv, but I'd still like to try it on my computer. The game played well.

Just finished my second time through (I've had it for 360 for quite some time now). I can say that this game WILL NOT dissapoint you. It stays true to the atmosphere and story of 1 and 2. You'd think that since its a First Person perspective that it'd be more of a shooter than RPG, but its not. This game is perfect in every way.

So it's not "Oblivion with guns" ?

But Todd Howard said that it was exactly Oblivion with guns.
I don't buy that it stays true to 1 and 2's story or atmosphere. I'll know when I play it, though - planning to get it Friday. I enjoyed Oblivion enough that even if it's a completely shit Fallout clone, an abortion of the series' style and substance, it'd still be an interesting game.

One thing that annoyed me about Oblivion was that there were about 10 voice actors employed for the game and those same 10 voices were used on hundreds if not thousands of npc's. So far in Fallout the voices all sound unique with the exception of the raiders I fought in the Springvale elementary school. The dialogs get a bit tedious since you have the option to ask most npc's alot of questions and you can usually respond with multiple responses depending on how you want your character viewed and developed. Example: Hey Mr, can you help me find my lost husband?: Option 1: Sure, i'd be glad to help Option 2: Fuck off bitch, I go my own way Option 3: what's in it for me if I do help? All in all, so far I have enjoyed it alot. The game feels very large too. Granted i've only put about 3 hours into it but I barely made it out of the vault and through the first "town". According to the world map, i've not even scratched the surface yet. -Icculus {FYC} |
