I've yet to play any RPG that captured my attention and imagination as well as Fallout did. Every time I play an RPG, I compare it (intentionally or no) to Fallout, and they never quite measure up.

 

I just hope the guys who are making the next one remember it as well as I do

I installed the demo but I get a black screen when I try ot play it.

Demo? Those things are still around?

That's how people play games before they buy them...

Yeah, you can get the demos at any Fallout community site with an FTP (DaC or NMA, nominally)

Considering how old Fallout is i didn't think there were any demos left.

Fileplanet, maybe it's because I'm using XP and I have direct X 9.

Try playing it in compatibility mode. Right-click the .exe file and go to properties. Go in win95 mode.

Thanks, if the demo is anything like the real game than I think I'll pass. I was expecting an ugly version of IWD but this is just gruesome.

Hey, the game's almost 10 years old, dawg. DAWG. Represent!

I just was expecting better because of what I've heard. Oh ya and I hate the combat system. I shoot, have to walk around. Be attacked and than repeat.

Fallout is the best there is, the best there was, the best that ever will be.

If this type of thinking persisted, then we wouldn't get games like Fallout.

Fallout clones!

I wonder how many of us would think the same thing if we hadn't played it all those years ago?

 

I wouldn't be surprised if half the people that claim to love the game so much wouldn't even give it a second look if the originals were never made, and suddenly were released today.

Fallout clones!

Bethesda: It's not what we do well. "

To be honest, I don't know if I'd like a clone.

 

The nice thing about NOT being a clone is that it means it's possible for us to get something different that is actually better.

I may not like clones. I could never get into Diablo clones compared to the game itself.

Or worse.

Yes that's always a possibility.

 

But if you get laden with Fallout clones, it's going to sour your perception of the style.

 

And as I said, if people were content with just making clones of the good games back in the day, we'd never get a Fallout.

Well, some people don't mind playing the same games over and over again.

Certainly we do not.

Wouldn't they like playing a better game over and over more?

Can there really be a game that's better than Fallout or Fallout 2?

Better in what? I prefer simple 2D games like Fallout and BG over something like Oblivion or soon to be released NWN2. It had a great story and wicked humor that I liked.

So why bother keeping up with the gaming industry at all? You already have FO and BG.
