Fallout 3

Recommended Posts

Oddly enough, I kind of agree that Fallout 3 will probably bear little or no resemblence to the game we all know and love beyond the title and setting.

 

I wish Obsidian had gotten the Fallout contract, but will nonetheless take a wait-and-see attitude, and hope for the best. I'm not going to bad-mouth Bethesda on something they may or may not do at some unspecified future time, though. I'm optimistic enough to hope something good might come out of it. If it sucks, oh well, we're still no worse off than we are now. :thumbsup:

"IGNPC: Can we expect something similar to the work done on Morrowind, in terms of that style of game experience?

 

Pete Hines: Again, it's early to say, but it wouldn't be a leap of faith to say that we plan to use technologies in development otherwise. You could make some fairly safe leaps of faith that it would be similar in style. We're not going to go away from what it is that we do best. We're not going to suddenly do a top-down isometric Baldur's Gate-style game, because that's not what we do well."

 

Go go Bethesda!

That's the one thing I am happy about. Top-down isometric sucks for immersion (at least for me). The rest of their promises.. Well, time will tell. I won't hate the game before it is even released.

At least Bethesda have plenty of money to throw at F3, if they throw enough at the dialogue and story they'll (hopefully) be halfway there.

Yay! Fallout In Name Only

Games have to evolve eventually. Otherwise they just die off. I'm hoping that Fallout 3 is a great porduct that captures the post-apocalyptic environment. Bethesda is a very solid developer. But it's not in our hands, so there is no real reason to worry.

Fallout already was a commercially successful franchise. It already made money. Of course, it didn't made as much money as something like Knights of the Old Republic. Question is, why does it need to sell that much?

 

Because game companies are companies, and companies need profits to stay in business.

 

Game developers may desire to make the players happy... but they need to stay in business as well.

Troika needed some profit to survive. Profit from Fallout. But, because of Bethesda, they couldn't take the rights of Fallout sequels. They tried, but Bethesda was richer.

 

So, the only developer which deserves to make Fallout 3 is dead now. I think this is a good reason to hate Bethesda.

Troika did not deserve to make Fallout 3.

"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."
