I used to love fallout. 1 & 2 were awesome when they came out. New Vegas was right up there too. However 3&4 are just poo poo and it’s sad that the poo poo streak is going to continue with 75.

They just feel so drat soulless

There's almost 76 skyrims too, so I guess it's only fair that we get Fallout 76 now.

Also this seems like the first prequel Fallout game, all the others have been in chronological order.

So it looks like another New Vegas kind of spinoff? Im ok with that.

Still need to keep my expectations low, could end up being a battle royale game for all I know.

I think it's cool that Beth have finally gone back on their dumbass 'only move the timelime forward' thing. the aesthetic will actually work now.


edit: vvvvv gently caress, nevermind. I guess it makes sense it wouldn't be a full Fallout game, since all the 3D ones very much have their location as part of their identity.

Fallout 76 is probably multiplayer. It's from a studio that previously worked on a hero shooter, so think Overwatch or, more likely, PUBG.

The other rumor for Fallout 76 is a base building survival game which makes more sense to me than a hero shooter or battle royale.

It's really weird that they're letting people think it's something it's clearly not, it's gonna sour a lot of people on the game.

the teaser looks like it has many of the same assets as fo4 so I would be surprised if it wasn't on the same engine as fo4 and honestly if a studio managed to hack that into a real multiplayer game they probably deserve some kind of award, so my bets are on fo4 base building spin off. Please, please have working vehicles because Fallout 76 immediately made me think of Interstate 76.

I hope if it's a spin-off, Bethesda learns a little from their hype on mods, really leans into it, and actually makes modding more accessible. Having to use, often multiple, third party applications and workarounds to import new meshes and textures and animations into the game is a gigantic pain in the rear end.

I would be okay with this being a Sonic only racer if not for the fact that I remember the story with Sumo Digital talking about how happy they made the developers at SEGA who worked on Skies of Arcadia back in the day when they got to show them the Rogues' Landing track with Vyse flying around the stage. Like it was a real feel-good moment for those peeps that they got to see this IP they left behind years ago get a shout-out like this :unsmith:

My uncle at Nintendo passed me a design document for the Nintendo Direct for E3. It was only one page but it describes how this Direct will open

A totally real internal Nintendo document posted:

Fade in from black. Pitch black room. Single old tube style TV is on, displaying only static. Camera raised enough so you can see the screen above the back of the head of the loan figure sitting on a steel stool watching the TV. It’s Reggie.

The screen flashes to a random person. “The switch is ok but it only has all ports!” Shot changes to a frontal shot of Reggie with a remarkably emotionless expression illuminated solely by the TV.

Switch again to behind the head shot. Screen flashes again. “The Switch doesn’t have any games!” Again it changes to the frontal shot of Reggie, slowly zooming on his face. There’s still no expression. He doesn’t blink.

The shot changes again to be behind him. The TV again changes to another random person. “But where are the Switch games?” As the shot changes the camera has continued to zoom in on Reggie’s blank face. The shot is close, his eyes are unfocused as if staring through the camera and the TV.

The shot changes to a new angle for the first time, showing Reggie in profile with the TV out of view but still illuminating him. There comes horrible, panicked screaming from all the people who have appeared on the screen mixed together in a terrible cacophony. Reggie slowly turns his head towards the camera, recognizing it for the first time. Still unblinking, still expressionless he stares directly at it and says “Welcome to Nintendo’s 2018 E3 Direct” He places a hard annunciation on the T in direct as something black and viscous drops from the left corner of his mouth

I know, even if it wasn't engine limitations, Bethesda still made money off of people doing it the hard way so they wouldn't have any reason to put the extra time and effort in anyway lol

Why is every prime X1X game delayed so much? Sea of Thieves took like 3 years to finally get a release after like probably 5 of development. Scalebound was also pushed a long time until it finally died on the road.
