Fallout 3 has Liam Neeson as your dad, therefore it cannot by any metric be bad. That said, New Vegas is still better. Why do goons and gamers seem to have so much trouble with the concept "not as good as ≠ bad".

A Fancy 400 lbs posted:Why can't people think FO3 is bad? NMA over reacted and they judged before playing it, but that doesn't mean anyone else who thinks it was bad is just an NMA troll. Because it's not an objectively bad game. Not doing what you (not you specifically) wanted the game to do does not make it bad.

I'm a California native. I just adore the idea of my state running the world (it would be a disaster IRL). I was doomed to be an NCR patriot even before I'd heard of Fallout.

I liked Point Lookout actually, maybe it was just because I liked Desmond. Plus the nifty double barrel it added. The loving bullet sponge enemies were a terrible pain in the rear end though. Operation Anchorage was pretty awesome, especially the sneaking stuff at the beginning. Although I couldn't help thinking how much better it would've been with the OWB Stealth Suit.

OK now I've got a new frustrating bug! For some reason the game refuses to play radio station music on my Pipboy. I can hear it fine from background radios, but all I get on the Pipboy is Mr. New Vegas reading news and announcing songs.

Well I solved the music problem. Turns out it was a codec problem, not the game itself. One new codec install later and I'm immediately greeted by Johnny loving Guitar.

If there's a Fallout set in New York, there has to be a Beneath the Planet of the Apes community living underground and worshiping a big ol' nuclear missile.

There's something funny (and kinda touching in a silly way) about how one of the most successful experimental vaults was the one filled with compulsive gamblers.

I did Daniel's version of HH once to get the achievement. Every other time I tell him to pack sand and go all Psalm 137 with Joshua. I wish Obsidian had been able to give Caesar some sort of special reaction to me showing up at the Fort in the Burned Man's armor.

Ddraig posted:Siding with Joshua seemed like the logical conclusion to the story and by far the most satisfying, even if it was a bitter victory. Yeah, Honest Hearts is easily my favorite of the DLC stories because Joshua and Daniel and the Survivalist are such well-drawn characters and their stories are legitimately compelling. Plus it gives me one of my favorite video game weapons ever.

thrakkorzog posted:How far away from the Dino are you taking her? If you're standing right outside the fence it won't work. Boone's trying to make it look like an accidental shooting. Try taking her over to the bridge past the Dino. Also, make sure it's at night when Boone is on his shift. Well that explains it, she keeps wandering into the stupid rocks on the near side of the bridge and turning around. drat it.
