As soon as you pick your first lock or hack your first computer terminal you're going to be hooked.ĭon't be such a rabid fanboy dude, don't get me wrong I agree with what you said but there is plenty to criticize BethSoft about when it comes to the games they develop and without peoples criticisms of previous titles there would be no push for innovation, I think we both think this will be the best BethSoft title produced to date but personally I know there will be plenty I am not so happy with, and to be frank now I couldn't touch the Fallout or Elder Scrolls franchises without a metric butt ton of mod's to improve, flesh-out or fix the base game after the first time I play through it.

I can't wait for the game to come out and shut every one up. It's how much detail and content that has been coded into that map that is important.Īnd from the time they have spent on dev? 5-7 years apparently, this should be absolutely mind blowing. For example you go to an airport which looks awesome and could have contained an amazing story but no, every building is locked and it's literally just a flat runway with a couple of rad scorpions on itįallout 4 can have a tiny tiny map. In New Vegas the main thing that crippled the game was its actual detail. The Keller Family Transcripts for example which led you to the Experimental MIRV took ages to complete because you needed all of the transcript holotapes.Īny way, might be getting to the TL DR point but what ho. There were easter eggs and mini quests absolutely everywhere. That was just one tiny slice of what you got if you explored Fallout 3 properly. She thought he had abandoned her but no, his 'Moonbeam' had it all wrong. Thankfully due to me exploring another building I found out that her father had died whilst holed up in a hotel trying to find her. I ended up discovering Sidney (could have been Sydney) any way, a woman with an attitude. For example, one evening I decided to venture into one of the buildings hidden at the back of the White House.

The key issue with a Fallout game has always been things to do. The metros were absolutely enormous, so pretty much doubled the size of the DC area map. We also need to remember that a lot of what happened in Fallout 3 happened under ground.

Yeah a big map is good, but one that is detailed and has a bit of life to it is much better. Just remember that they could easily make the map bigger, but then everything would be too bloody far away from eachother.
