Internet Kraken posted:I wonder if the Outcasts from Fallout 3 are gonna be anywhere in it. People complained about how Bethesda basically missed the point of the Brotherhood in 3 by turning them into goodie two shoes, but at least they acknowledge their original attitude with the Outcasts. Plus their armour looked sweet. With any hope the DC Brotherhood we'll likely see in Boston haven't aged so well in the years after F03 and NV. Lyons is probably dead and if cracks of traditionalists were showing then, they've probably reverted to some of their older ways without the softies being in the highest reigns of power anymore. But it would also be interesting to see what became of the Outcasts themselves all the same. Wrath of the Bitch King posted:It would be cool if the Enclave were anything but terrible in these games. They were interesting in the older Fallout games but in 3 they were just bleh. My personal wish is that any Beth game in Chicago uses ED-E and sort of flips the script between the Enclave and the Brotherhood. The Enclave Remnants are just looking for somewhere to settle after being chased between east and west coasts and a certain chapter of the Brotherhood's gone all Steel Menace. One's kind of "nicer" than the other, but you could possibly transform the Enclave into something arguably benevolent while you become strange bedfellows fending off Brotherhood Scum.

bloodychill posted:My heart sank a little when I was watching that new gameplay vid and saw it had the exact same mini-games just moved to a new engine. I may have been one of three people who liked the hacking game when they first introduced it but they needed to do something else this time around. Hacking is different now in that instead of telling you you've got 2/5 or whatever characters right, it just says "Likeness ##". Which is a really oddball change honestly. I was hoping lockpicking would have a cutaway of a lock with the pins and tumblers exposed as I really like those for some drat reason, but I can understand not everyone would appreciate the change.

Does bethesda give review copies of its games to sites/annoying twitch personalities? They seem to be really committed to not letting anything leak.

Internet Kraken posted:I think the idea behind Fallout 3 was supposed to be that because the capital got nuked so hard, rebuilding was not something the people there could do easily. The lack of resources combined with the lovely state of, well, everything meant that people were locked into a perpetual cycle of just barely managing to survive. It definitely wasn't executed correctly though. One thing that bugs me about Fallout 3's environments, and I think New Vegas is guilty of this as well in some areas, is that even the ones people live in look filthy. Yeah it makes sense that their buildings are all ramshackle and focused on functionality over aesthetics. Doesn't make sense that everyone leaves tons of poo poo just lying on the ground instead of cleaning up. It also really lowered the stakes when the plot point was basically that of Fallout 2 all over again. Just now instead of wiping out the population of California/etc they're using their nearly invincible army of extremely mobile powered infantry to poison the local water supply in order to wipe out the Republic of Dave and really put the squeeze on Megaton. Oh no.

Review copies have been sent out and the embargo is up the day before release. They're giving the reviewers plenty of time to play so I don't think they're really trying to hide anything though.

Just now instead of wiping out the population of California/etc they're using their nearly invincible army of extremely mobile powered infantry to poison the local water supply in order to wipe out the Republic of Dave and really put the squeeze on Megaton. It wasn't exactly the same. Poisoning the water was only President Robot's plan to wipe out all the undesirable mutants and contaminated folk. His second in command, whose name I cannot remember, was trying to take control of the water purifier so the Enclave could distribute the water and effectively control the area as a result. So the President was going to purge the land while the general just wanted to set up the Enclave as "benevolent" rulers. This would of worked better if the general didn't talk and act like a stereotypical villain and the Enclave also wasn't being cartoonishly evil. Luceid posted:thats what i thought too but everyone just kept saying its "pulp" to be like that so i guess it is what it is I can get calling ramshackle settlements pulp but why does the inside of every house have to have a bunch of poo poo covering the ground? Its just pretty dumb that the major difference between a place like Tenpenny Tower and Megaton is that the former has recovered the long lost technology of the broom.

I think maybe its possible that people in a post-apocalyptic world especially outside of things like organized city settlements would stop caring about decorum, prolly be depressed and crazy, etc Like there are goons with bedrooms messier than the houses in Fallout

That doctor has all his weird junk that he keeps for brain problem reasons in good order. It is a century and a bit more after the bombs fell iirc, not to mention New Vegas and the surrounding area got by a bit better thanks to Mr. House. After that amount of time there is no reason to be living in scrap heaps and garbage piles the way it was mistakenly presented in fallout 3.

You know what actually bothers me is that they keep listening to the same old world music and don't bother to form new bands. Like, if post-apocalyptic movies like Fury Road and Six String Samurai have taught me something, it's that original bands are pretty key to having a good time in the wasteland.
