I partly share this view - F3's a good game, but it's just really average compared to Interplay's first two episodes - the world and story in F3 just isn't as expansive or interesting and it tries to make up for that by mixing in the first person shooter element.Miggle wrote:

Fallout 3 was great, but in comparison to the original 2 or Oblivion, it had incredibly little substance.
I'm sure all the fanboys will come flame the shit out of me, but that's because they've never played an RPG before in their shitty little lives.
Imho the "first person shooter element" makes far, far better than the original fallouts, it gives you a sence of immersion that the originals could never provide (for me atleast, I got pretty bored when trying them)...Rosse_modest wrote:

Where I don't agree is with Oblivion - that was a total waste of the dvd discs and boxes if you ask me. Not worth its weight in paper and plastic - Fallout 3 is definitely better than that.
Mind you, I think the first person shooter element is an improvement on the original top down view - but in this case it simply serves to compensate for a less interesting background story and world. And imo the latter is more important.FloppY_ wrote:

And there is really nothing like exploring the wasteland from a first person perspective...
The originals had allmost nothing that appealed to me...
And I'm no fanboy tbh

You may not have liked the gameplay, that's understandable, but Oblivion had so much more to do.Rosse_modest wrote:

I'm not trying to say oblivion is perfect, and yeah that stuff was all annoying. I especially hated the leveling system.Reciprocity wrote:
Who didn't enjoy exploring the same tunnels and ruins? Closing the same gates to oblivion, over and over? And the 30, totally unique, totally worthless battle axes.
I enjoyed Oblivion, but I'm not gunna put it on some absurd pedestal. And anyone who's only played for 15 hours hasn't done much.

That's what I did, and for those exact reasons. Lo and behold I return to Megaton andFlecco wrote:

The game just had a lot more to do, even excluding oblivion gates, caves, and ayleid ruins (which I avoided) There were a lot of great quests, there were the guilds, there was a lot of shit to do.
I've been almost everywhere in Fallout 3, my only remaining quests are the main one Spoiler (highlight to read):
following liberty prime and the ones where I have to find a load of shit (Nuka Cola Quantum...) The game felt really short and unfinished, just another game churned out for quick money.
Compared to the other Fallouts, 3 was complete shit, but it was still pretty fun for the 30 or so hours I played it.
you can always just convince her not to write the bookFlecco wrote:

There's a possibility of her dying and you fail the quest, though. I believe a message will come up saying "Moira has been killed by Raiders" and it'll say you failed the quest.FloppY_ wrote:
