If Bethesda do screw up Fallout 3 then the least of their concerns will be letter bombs.PurpleRain said:
I'll make sure of that.
Richard Garriot had a hilarious comment about fan mail at a speech he gave one time. He said there are basically two kinds. 1) You suck and I hate your game. 2) Great game...but you really should have fixed this, this, and this.PurpleRain said:
Unfortunately, I've yet to read about Bethesda focusing on solving problem other than shooting people in the face, much like the only way to solve quests in the Elder Scrolls.

I hadn't played Fallout 1 or 2 in their hay days. I also haven't finished either (busy gaming season when I downloaded them). However Fallout 2 was very enjoyable, had good story elements, and used interesting RPG functions (mostly taken from pen&paper games).WlknCntrdiction said:
The only drawback for me was that many feats or abilities (can't remember the term used) were pretty useless. Though that can easily be said of many other great games, so I don't hold it against the developers.
considering that every human in Oblivion looks like they have Down Syndrome, there's tons of room for improvement. i have high hopes for Fallout.
When a game has a lack of immersion so big that even Wow could beat it. It has a serious problem.
the lack of immersion in Oblivion is bad, but definitely no worse than WoW. if you don't believe me, then how many times have you kicked the shit out of Ragnaros and repeatedly saved the kingdom?Random argument man said:
the biggest room for improvement is the combat. the combat in Oblivion is serviceable. However, if those sword mechanics were present in a non-RPG game, people would be up in arms with how limited and repetitive it is.
the only thing making the combat bearable is the fantastical notion that your attack is slowly becoming more and more powerful, even though most of your enemies are difficulty scaled anyways, ruining any feeling of character growth.
the only sign that i was getting stronger was one day when i woke up and realized i could one hit kill rats. woooO!

I'll admit that while I have a big ol' raging hard-on for the Fallout series, Bethseda looks like they're doing a really good job. I can tell you right now; I will love this game. I can look at screen shots of a game in early production, read a few tidbits, and instantly decide whether or not I will enjoy the finished product. I've never been wrong, although I may just be a stubborn fool.
I just wish someone would make a GURPS Fallout supplement.
