[SOLDIER First]

and they might be making fallout 5 :3

[Rolan7]

It explained most things, because Obsidian knows how to write and make the story fit in well with the setting. :3

New Vegas is... arguably my favorite, though it's kinda apples and oranges compared to FO3 and the originals.  Apples oranges and kumquats?
But a setting being hard (in the sense of hard-sci-fi) doesn't mean the writing's good.  A good story can be hard or soft.

I doubt it. They were talking about making a sequel to NV a little before FO4 came out, so if you're going to get your hopes up for a new FO game from Obsidian, that would probably be the one, a couple years down the line.

[SOLDIER First]

fallout 5, a sequel to new vegas... whatever it might be, it's obisidian, and i'm excited

[Bluexdog]

Wait was it announced!?

Spoiler: Mild 'The Big Dig' quest spoilers- it's a shit quest anyway so don't worry (click to show/hide)

Ugh. So I meet Bobbi in Diamond city to see what the hell she wants. A lame dialogue ensues in which I have pretty much no dialogue options, especially not a "fuck no" option which would make much sense.
As soon as she reveals her plan, I do the logical thing and stand up to go report the security threat to the guards.
Wait, what? The game doesn't give you an option to do that. Well then, guess I'll have to take it to the Mayor himself. Oh wait, he's a completely useless NPC with a couple of bland lines of dialogue and no real interaction with the PC, I forgot about that.

So what the fuck am I supposed to do? I'm not about to work with some filthy ghoul to undermine the only decent settlement of the Commonwealth.
This is like that terrible Skyrim bullshit all over again. I swear, if Bobbi turns out to be unkillable, I'm giving up on this game.
I've run out of patience with Bethesda.

Also, why am I sometimes simply unable to build things in settlements, with no actual explanation as to why?
I have all the materials, the thing just doesn't show up no matter where I try and place it.


Edit: My worst fears are confirmed. About this game, anyway.
Guess it's good only for screwing around with the character creation- unless you feel like playing just the way the devs want you to, and share their boner for the ridiculous, badly-written factions they filled it with. Ugh, and I can't even mod the game to be not-shit, since I play on console.

Editedit: This has actually upset me quite a lot. Huh. I expended a fair amount of energy defending this game from some of its critics, and now all of a sudden I hate it. This also means I'm pretty much out of games to play, games that I feel like playing at least. I'm actually feeling pretty sad about this. Weird.

[TheBiggerFish]

Er...Have you played Undertale?

[Yoink]

I played the demo. I did it wrong and things got way too sad. >.>
Perhaps I'll buy the latest Mortal Kombat game when I get paid, I played it briefly at a friend's place and it is pretty dope.

Anyway! Enough of this derail!

* Yoink disappears from the thread in a puff of smoke.

Yoink, trust me. Finish the quest. I guarantee you'll like how it turns out, especially if you make the decision I think you will.

Just, uh. Beware of the buggy one-off mechanic.

[Krevsin]

Considering FO3's Colin Moriarty, yeah.

Didn't he mention that he and his father came to the Capital Wasteland by ship when he was a child? Pretty sure that was the explanation he gave in game for what an Irishman was doing running a pub in a radioactive crater.

The problem is he doesn't sound irish, he sounds like an american doing a terrible irish accent.

[Sergius]

Maybe Cait put her vocal cords in a refrigerator for 200 years and just recently took them out?

That seems to fix any logical problem in Fallout these days.

[Bluexdog]

Its probably the pshyco

Nonono, it was clearly the institute. She was a part of their secret super soldier program that failed and was released into the wilds.

[Yoink]

But... Irish people sound like Americans doing terrible Irish accents.

Yoink, trust me. Finish the quest. I guarantee you'll like how it turns out, especially if you make the decision I think you will.

Just, uh. Beware of the buggy one-off mechanic.

I might have to take your word for it and give it another shot. Still breaks my heart that I am unable to kill everyone, though.

Heh. You'll enjoy the ending, I promise.
