Ah, so that is where Goldsman went. He was on the writing team for Star Trek: Discovery but did not come back for season two because of "issues in the writing room" (yeah, that was the biggest problem of season one). However, since the writing of Star Trek: Discovery was a sloppy, disjointed...

I don't know. If you want to wear pumps and wield an M-16 (with underslung grenade launcher, of course) while charging the beaches at Normandy or Iwo Jima, go for it. I have no idea why people don't just say "Meh, it's not historically accurate. No women stormed the beaches at Normandy or Iwo...

There are Super Mutants. There is a new faction of "semi-feral" Ghouls who can use weapons to kill you, before they eat you. I think there are "regular" feral Ghouls, but I am inferring that from a developer interview. "All the old enemies of previous Fallouts will be in Fallout76, as well as...

From most of the interviews, YouTube ads, even the E3 reveal, my response to FO76 has been: Nope. No thanks. Next? But, I watched the NoCLip Making of Fallout 76 documentary and my view changed to: Huh. Maybe... If I could log in with some real world friends... this could be really fun...

I have no idea what he was trying to say. It comes across as though he has this preconceived scripted idea of how players are going to react in every instance. It just sounds out of touch and weird. Remember Dragon Age:Inquisition and the "awesome button"? This sounds eerily similar. FO76...

Thank you! Let's see... "If you see a sign that says 'Ammo' in a Fallout game, you know that is an NPC are you are like 'OK, whatever but they are NPCs'. But, if you see a sign that says 'Ammo' you know a player made that, and that's a different... a very different mood' and it's very...

So, WTF should we expect from this game? I thought that they wanted "a little bit of risk, but not griefy" PvP across all servers? If you can't see a server, how could you join a PvP free server if you wanted to? Could you post a link to this Q&A? Or what i should google for? My searches...

We'll see as they release more information. They are creating "incentives and advancement opportunities" for PvP and co-operative playstyles (though PvP and Co-op players must share the same server). This sounds more like a weird social experiment than pure survival. Bethesda has become...

Q:"Can you play offline?" A:"You can not. Even if you are playing by yourself, doing quests, you will see other players."-Todd It's around the 5:50 mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdYtulRRfDU "There are robots and terminals and holo-tapes..." This is where quests come from. If you...

Well, it just struck me as odd that they would assure those watching that "their servers were reliable" and would be "here for the foreseeable future". If the servers were optional, why mention their stability when addressing "online multiplayer experiences"? That does not mean they will host...

"We love dynamic game systems. So we thought: why don't we put multiple nuclear silos on the map and let you... do whatever you want with them." - Todd That sounds like "nuke your friends" to me (especially considering they killed the players in the cutscene with a nuke). But perhaps this is...

This E3 reveal is confusing and nonsensical. "Every character is a person." "Open-world survival, every person a character." Look Toddy, while plenty of players asked for multiplayer, one of the biggest issues with FO4 was the "truncated dialogue system". I'm glad those that asked for...

There is a reason, just sloppy in it's delivery. In Fallout 2, the Enclave wanted to make a modified version of FEV that would "purify" the wasteland. Anything that had been exposed to FEV would be killed. However, since more than 80% of the population of the US has been exposed to FEV to...

I played on the persistent world "Avlis" and other CoPaP worlds for years. Still have friends I met there who I play PnP with. Which D&D era is my favorite? I've played quite a few editions. All of them were flawed gems. Currently, my group is playing Pathfinder and TORG.

I completely agree with you. Overwatch does not have a focus on story, but on gameplay. So, while this method is a poor use of the medium, it is understandable.
