Watching that MATN video actually has me pretty worried now. I was unaware of the whole no NPC thing and the idea of them all being "dead" but still a thing seems like a loving cop out for engine reasons. I don't know I guess we will see. Also that the main story was added in later is a pretty major warning sign that maybe the people making this didn't pay attention to what people playing fallout we're looking for. Here's hoping there are still those little vignettes that you find that tell a story of an area etc. Like the poisoned social club in fallout 4

MJBuddy posted:One of the videos posted above have a light version of this with a haunted shack that seems to trigger as you investigate the notes left within. If that sort of thing is still present where the environment tells the story then maybe it'll be alright without NPCs. Has anyone seen any raiders in this that weren't corpses?

The absolute worst thing about FO4 was locking the trading posts thing and settlement stuff behind such a high charisma req. Meant that if you went with any sort of different build you got hosed on ever making settlements

Best bet is the plan was to have magazines be in the store. Since this game is trash and they were looking to monetize it however they could. Also yeah i hadnt see the tv spot until the joke one and thats loving stupid with beach boys. How the gently caress do they not say gently caress it and go john denver or really ANYTHING THAT FITS THE OVERALL FEEL OF FALLOUT. That commercial was another warning sign that people who had no loving clue were in charge.

Donovan Trip posted:I speculate that red dead online will thoroughly take over my life the way rdr2 has the last month and that Fallout 76, a 60 dollar game, will never be as good as the free mp expansion red dead online Thats a strong stance but i fully understand it. Im expecting it to be fairly buggy and while i think eventually it will be a mainstay i think initially its first few months will have some issues. This is just from past experience with gtaonline. But they also may have learned quite a lot with gtaonline so maybe not. Also looking forward to all the free content they will undoubtedly drop though we will see if there is a shark stamped gold bar. I do think if its a buggy mess that takes an hour to matchmake me to my friends itll still be vetter that f76 since its free and just additional value to a game people were passionate about making.

DoctorGonzo posted:i fount the meteorite and i was like wtf. i really should take my time exploring in rdr2 Oh yeah i keep finding new things to make arthur sketch like a full set of Mammoth bones. Within the GTAonline framework i can already see a few options for like ownership of ranches or shine operations which then allow a gang to escort deliveries against other players and reverse. Setting up a dynamite trap on a bridge to take out other players should be super fun. Downside is r* hasnt been great on the anti cheat front so we will see where that takes us

Bloody mess was also nice since it meant pieces of the creature would almost always be accessible for looting and not lost to the ether of the Bethesda bug dimension

No Mods No Masters posted:Hitman 2 is great but unsurprisingly a janky intricate stealth puzzle game isn't really keyed in to what the mass audience wants. If Todd had his way, they would prefer picking through piles of garbage for screws and bits of tape Basically this. Its niche these days. Doesnt mean its bad but it doesnt have a huge initial audience to preorder blast and buy day one.

Also ( and i dont remember all the details so i may be a little off) IOI got the rights back to the franchise and im sure there was some weirdness that impacted development there a bit. Its a good game though the first elusive target (think limited time boss character) is sean bean playing an assassin well known for being reported dead but never actually dying which is played very well

The White Dragon posted:is hitman 2 episodic? or is just a big, complete game? how long is it? it looks interesting and fun but i don't wanna grab it if it's short or only half-finished It is semi episodic and downloading those episodes is the one annoying thing (at least on xbox). Though they all come with the game they all install separate due to i assume hitmans file structure. That being said the main game is six missions long ish and they are so far really good (im only at three). Six may seem small but a lot of hitman is replaying with new strategies and discovering all the interconnected details of a level. Sinces its 50% off id say its worth it but that being said hitman 1 goty isnt too expensive and is very similar and also good. the hitman thread would know the best way to maximize your  Edit: not to contradict the earlier two posters what i mean by semi episodic is it can be at later dates with expansions unlocking only what you want to purchase but yes atm it releases with all content. They moved away from the hitman 1 model...... Hitman 1 was still so good though

BillyC posted:private servers and mod capability. let modders do the job This would likely solve the creature variety issue and the stability stuff for sure. Private servers also mean if you decided to go public and they could maybe make pvp a loving thing instead of the abortion it currently is. If you dont want pvp just go private. Downside is that only really works for pc side. Not a bad idea though. Any bets on if that happens because it would mean kissing that loving cosmetics store goodbye for sure.

Donovan Trip posted:Hub town that gets players to hang out and interact, highlighting the best aspect of the game (playing with others) I will say the one positive esque thing i heard about f76 was the organic accrual of people at one town. That was kinda cool in an emergent gameplay way. The shared missions steps is loving barbaric that it isnt already a thing but apparently 76 quest system is loving broken from the ground up. So that would be a good improvement. Your base can just loving disappear? Whaaaaaat the gently caress. Npcs is a pipe dream im afraid i get the feeling this loving engine would shatter if they tried to put anything like that in. Its already a stuttering drooling wreck.( This is why i cancelled my pre order btw. Was getting worried when the pre order bonus was literally just beta access and then someone said all the story is holotapes and i knew that was a loving sign) I still dont know what the gently caress of the factions is. They are all dead good job filling the fridge for loving nobody so yeah anything would help there. VATS is just awful now. Which is sad because there have been games that had slow time mechanics in multi but those probably had competent teams working on them and were trying to asset swap their way to greatness. This game is like bethesda let someone who had ever used rpgmaker to make anime games take over. All asset swaps and poo poo that makes no sense.
