Still trying to figure out i've not installed this game yet, there was a lot of promise for Far Cry 2 but that nosedived for me. But from what i've read here in this thread, Fallout 3 isn't too far removed from something like WoW, right? So then i should enjoy it, right?

And FOOL? Fallout Online, right?

Right?

Just finished it, I liked the game but the ending was lacking imo.

The whole time playing I kept thinking it was so much better than Far Cry 2 and in so many ways, but the ending felt just as boring imo.

A better cut scene would have been nice I think.
there are like 12 different cut scenes (maybe not 12, but at least 4,) depending on if your character died and what path you chose and what not http://www.1up.com/do/blogEntry?bId=892 … Id=5696848

Well you do quests and get XP and level up and put points in skills etc

So it is an RPG so I guess similar to WoW in some ways. MMORPG's and RPG's are fairly different in most cases though.

Get it, it is easily GOTY material.

i sure hope it's not like WoW.  it plays a lot more like a shooter as far as I'm concerned.  then again the only RPG I played before this was Diablo 2.

Well, they're both similar in respect that they're RPGs...but F3 has 1) a deeper story 2) a better setting 3) weapons and mini-nukes 4) sexy VATS death scenes which NEVER get old

Well the principle of gameplay seems very similar to WoW, you got to understand that WoW is a great game but the fantasy lore and characters aren't to everyone's liking, which is fair enough. But lets not start another WoW thread hi-jack, i just wanted to state that the similarity to WoW attracts me to this game.

I actually have Fallout 3 and i'm going to install it when i have a spare hour at the weekend, i got some time off over Xmas and WoW does get boring when your mates aren't on so i shall have some time to plough into FO3

Did you...read the post?

I said F3 has a better story and a better setting than WoW. Which it does. The Fallout storyline is immense and actually seems realistic, and the setting (a bombed out DC) is 10x better than...whatever the fuck WoW has to offer. Azeroth, is it?

You cant really say that definitively. Sure, WoW makes up another story arc whenever they want a new expansion and it is not really based on anything but well...wait.

Still, some people like fantasy others like more real-ish stuff.

Lol Warcraft's world is a cheap knockoff of Warhammer.


FOOL = Fallout Online. A super duper top secret unannounced project which everybody knows about because they paid $5mil to get the rights for it from Bethesda.


Reports also say that if it goes gold then Bethesda get 12% of all sales and subscription profits. D:
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

Yeh, but Blizzard invented MMO's and classes. Not to mention the aggro system, mounts, levels, raiding.

Hilariously, a "friend" of mine asked me a while back whether other MMO's I have played (LotR:O, Conan, WAR etc) had classes and the agro system. He actually thought WoW had invented aggro....I just lol'd.

Roffle my waffle.

Well, one way or another I've been playing for an hour, with sound! Amazing.

I went back to megaton to sell off a few things and work on Moira's quest when...

Spoiler (highlight to read):

I finished the water processing quest too. Going into the plant, I saw Leo Stahl instead of that old guy. I asked him what he was doing and he said it was none of my business. I mean, he was sitting in that poor old guy's chair! So I found Leo Simms to go blow his head off, because, you know, he was obviously a theif. Turns out there was no dialouge for that option. I took matters into my own hands. Lost karma for blowing his head off, but got ~100 caps. I looked him up on the interwebs, turns out he was a med addict, not a theif. Haha.

This I realized after looting his key and taking his stuff that was ~3 feet from his brain splatter.

Oh well. I have enough good karma to balance it out.
