Fallout:Brotherhood of Steel

Just how bad WAS FOBOS anyway?
Not cringe-worthy, but merely unremarkable. Bland, boring. Not even the "b00bies" make up for it. I'm sure you can find better uses for your money.

 

And FOT was infinitely better.

- When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.

Okay, well I think I've been convinced not to get it myself, maybe lay a hint and if someone gets it for christmas, then no money of mine spent. If/when I hate it I can just toss it...or give it away.

 

However, I'm not going to get it now due to what everyone is saying here. Not wanting to start anything, but since I haven't played...in brief...why is so many people so liking Vampire. I had heard it was a buggy as heck game?

 

Should I really spend the time and money to hunt it down (going to need something else to whittle my time now that I'm not getting FOBOS)?

People like it because it's a very good game with great dialogue, well thought-out characters and some really fun quests. Other people like it because of the bleak goth-friendly setting, but you can take that or leave it.

 

You might have to take some precautions to get it to run right (it's a RAM hog), but it's worth it. My system is strictly middle-of-the-road, and after I patched and disabled several graphic tweaks it ran fine with no bugs.

baby, take off your beret

everyone's a critic and most people are DJs

If you can get past some of the worst combat ever, and its inherent bugginess; you will find BL to be a great game.

 

Fantastic dialogue (mostly), great characters, good role-playing, a decent story and an atmosphere second to none; BL is well worth playing.

I love the combat. Its the best part of the game. I played through as all the different clans just to see how many ways there were to kill your enemies.

 

The atmosphere and dialogue is good to. Not too much dialogue either. Just a good amount without bogging the show down.

 

And there's also bloodboil.

 

I'm so easy to please. o:)

Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.

I like the isometric, fantasy, "beat'em up" games. It's kind of like diablo, except that your hand doesn't get tired from clicking. The controls are a lot better.

 

If you're curious and it's only $5, buy it. It's cheaper than renting it in most cases.

FOBOS was a fun game.
How can someone lose so much credibility in so few words, is beyond me. If I ever need advice on what game to buy it's certainly not going to be you that I listen to.

 

FOT was actually a game, with story and some good dialogue. FOBOS is a steaming pile that I wouldn't touch with a 10' pole.

Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel was an average game. It was made using a great engine, had good graphics and an extremely pleasing setting. To me. Unfortunately, it was also not Fallout, it was badly written (with some of the most pathetic characters ever) and strictly linear.

 

It did provide a few hours of fun in co-op though.

 

And saying that someone loses credibility for liking a game that you don't like is stupid, at best.

Volourn has credibility???

 

:(

Just because you're a bit thinner than your even fatter mum it doesn't mean you're in excellent physical shape, if you could fit through the door and view the normal people you'd notice that cheeseburger boy. Squid suck.
