I'd like to first point out you stated you gave up then imediately continued the arguement.

On the subject of the DLC you probably should have used a spoiler. Now it is ruined for EVERYONE!

Spoiler: Spoilered like it should be. (click to show/hide)

I have to agree that I don't like the whole "aliens started the war" thing. But for a different reason; I preferred when we didn't know who started the war/fired the first nuke.
Did aliens fire the first nuclear weapon or just start the war? I'd forgive starting the war, because it was the nuclear weapon usage that created the Fallout universe.

I think the 5 addons that cost 50$ is the real damage bethseda has done. Come on! Back in the day, Developers used to release these things for _FREE_.

As in, I gave up on the subject that it is unrealistic.

Then picked up on the new topic about aliens.

Yeah. Especially how small these are. I mean, an arm and a leg plus your first born baby just for a few lines of code and a couple of megs on meshes and textures.

... still shittingly unrealistic, and so what if in the 50's they didn't have a clue about science? Wait, let's do a game about controlling storms, since in old times, they thought gods made them. Oh wait, it's been done. Oh well.

Delishus ED is working fine for me.
And i find it sorta ironical that everyone goes butthurt when they hear about ED, yet pretend not to care about it

Weren't you listening? It's not that they didn't have a clue about science, it's that science works in the way they think it work. It's not unrealistic for them, because they live in a totally different universe which validates all their scientific theories. Whether or not its unrealistic in this universe is absolutely irrelevant.

it's that science works in the way they think it work. It's not unrealistic for them, because they live in a totally different universe which validates all their scientific theories.

I think their just handwaving it.

They're, but yes, it is a handwave. It does, however, explain everything and checking out the wiki shows that they went to some lengths to do so.

[BigFatDwarf]

Still, wouldn't this be at least more public? Like, in the description available everywhere?

WHAT THEY HAVE: Live in the post-apocalyptic America, arising from a vault, to find your Dad.

WHAT THEY SHOULD HAVE: Live in a completely different universe with alienz OMG and lazar guns and everything is different and there is absolutely no connection to the real reality uh. Lulz. LOLZOR OMG oh yeah we rock.

-----------------------------------------

Besides Interplay never intended the Fallout universe. I mean, they made the game for the lulz and with a lot of humor, like playing Tarot with ghouls and such. Then Bethesda came in and made it shit.

What's with Bethesda anyway? There were days like Morrowind and Daggerfall, two great games. Then they started making crap like Oblivion, Fallout 3 etc.

They made Fallout 3 all a serious game, where people try to survive and all.

As opposed to the laughter-packed Fallout 1 and 2, with people making revolts because they felt like it and A LOT of Easter eggs. Like the Police Box in 1, reference to Doctor Who. And in 2, an OOC talk in-game why there are no children anywhere.

Really, I don't know why they didn't just make a new name for F3. Fallout 3 seems too much like pissing on the series.

[Zironic]

I played morrowind. I was unimpressed. I feel like I could run around for hours, with nothing to do. Oblivion at least had some great game design in giving me non main story related dungeons.

My dream game - Open world/lots of dungeons of Oblivon/Skill system of Morrowind/A main, endless dungeon like roguelikes/items like roguelikes/godslikeroguelikes.....

GLaDOS quote(directed at bethesda):
"I feel sorry for you, really, because you're not even in the right place.
You should have turned left before."

They made a wrong turn at the exit of ESIII(Though it took them a while to get completely off track)

Edit: also "Good people don't end up here"

[Jackrabbit]

Each to their own, I guess. I liked the "Oh my God, you killed Kenny!" in Fo2.
