Mordaedil posted:There is a distinct lack of those kind of things in New Vegas and it is a bit more linear and driven than FO3, where you could really explore in any direction from the word go. You can finish the game in New Vegas without even meeting Benny again.

RagnarokAngel posted:That isn't what he means. I know what he means, he's just saying it really badly. Fallout 3 is infinitely more linear than FO:NV. Sure, you can sequence break a bit - but you can also do that in NV and there's stuff like the above.

theblackw0lf posted:I challenge you to find a better written RPG than Mask of the Betrayer in the last 10 years. (Except maybe New Vegas, which of course they also developed). Alpha Protocol, KOTOR2? This is really incredible news and I'm going to donate an amount of money that should be larger but I'm poor, once I get my desktop working again.

Evil Fluffy posted:Given past games like Dungeon Siege 3, I'm not all that caring for Obsidian being involved. I know NV was liked despite the bugs but Obsidian can drive something off a cliff pretty well. Can't get myself to throw more money at them just because of this. Well, ok then. Dungeon Siege 3 is kind of the antithesis of the popular perception of Obsidian games (with some basis in fact - reach exceeding grasp) so I'm not sure how that ties into it but your choice.

Lurdiak posted:While we're talking about Fallout 3, can anyone explain to me what it was about that one family of cannibals that pissed people off so much? Every single time someone wanted to diss Fallout 3 compared to New Vegas they'd bring it up, but I'm playing through FO3 again and met them for the first time, and I didn't really notice any logical inconsistensies or anything. Who, exactly, do they eat? Who's wandering around the wastes? Why haven't they been attacked by raiders? The location by itself isn't internally contradictory, it just doesn't make sense as part of a wider world - ala having a town full of children next to a town of slavers.

VaultAggie posted:So I've donated 15$ to this just out of sheer love for Obsidian but having never played Wasteland, I have no idea what to expect. Is it an isometric game like Fallout 1 and 2? I've tried looking up info but it's all very vague and uninformative. What should I expect? Think Fallout 1/2, except more squad based and themed around the eighties rather than the fifties. Fallout was a spiritual successor to Wasteland.

Evil Fluffy posted:Combat is tile-based and turn based, complete with adding cast time to your initiative when you act, delaying your moves appropriately. Fights in the later games like Dark Queen of Krynn can be a bigger pain in the rear end than Baldur's Gate 2 fights*. BG2 fights are fairly simple anyway.

Having choices have consequences beyond the cosmetic was good, though. Nothing should (without knowledge from outside the game) stop you from finishing the thing, but you should be able to make things easier or harder on yourself.
