New Vegas is just exactly everything a modern Fallout game should be. Using the lore and world of the previous games and updating them nicely. 3 is just upsetting how much Bethesda didn't care about the world (Brotherhood as space marines, Encalve as nazis) I really really sincerely hope they've learned and at least try and make a Fallout game on par with New Vegas.

They should have Fallout 4 back at the East Coast and another Fallout: Something (like New Vegas) which takes place in the West.

I think the inherent flaw with 3 is that it's not a western the other games are all definitely sort of post apocalyptic westerns, with NCR acting as government, having lonely travellers drift from town to town collecting bounties hunting prey and solving problems whereas 3 takes place in a savage tribal world it was a little out there for Fallout

[QUOTE=DaysBefore;43047953]Except Veronica had a story and was interesting while Skyrim followers were glorified backpacks[/QUOTE] Serana wasn't bad, at least compared to what Bethesda's usual characters are. Everyone else was just plain ass boring. I cannot even remember any of the characters of Skyrim besides Ulfric, and only because he was involved in the politics. Basically, Bethesda's writing talent is not very good. I really wish that they have Obsidian design the quests and stuff for Fallout 4 but that seems unlikely.

However, even they had redeemable characters, especially the Remnants you meet in New Vegas. I honestly liked Fallout 3's world better: it felt a hell of a lot more like an apocalypse had happened. The stakes were much higher too. Rather then fighting for the ownership of a strip of land, you were fighting for human survival in the region. Everything was on the edge of a knife because the Capitol Wasteland was so lawless and brutal that, if you failed, civilization in its entirety in the whole region would fail. The changes to existing lore, however, were big no-nos to me. If they had just left out the contrived bullshit with the Super Mutants, the Brotherhood, and the Enclave and focused on more original ideas then 3 would have been great and still fit in the lore (I could believe that some parts of the Wasteland, like the Capitol, are worse off than others) but those 3 things I listed are iconic to Fallout and are on all the promotional shit. Bethesda needed to show they were making a Fallout game, which is the reason I feel a lot of that stuff made a return, because it was iconic to the series.

All this talk of Skyrim and Fallout makes me want a crossover mod for either game. I know lots of people are sticklers for accuracy or whatever, but that sounds so fun that I wouldn't even give a fuck. I'd love to clear tombs with a BB gun, or shout away Deathclaws.

I've played it to completion about 5 tiems, as a game, it's really fun, but I do dislike the world it takes place in, and compared to New Vegas, it is without a doubt inferior (people who try to claim 3 is better are weird)

I don't know how I would emotionally handle seeing an older Butch to be honest.

[QUOTE=FullStreak12;43048506]How do you trigger Veronica's quest?[/QUOTE] Meet Veronica and head to Hidden Valley.

I can't download mods from the nexus atm for what ever reason. I'm sadden.

The front page says their taking the nexus down for maintenance today.

[QUOTE=Rangergxi;43047923]Is that a bad thing?[/QUOTE] no lol i just remember when fo3 was revealed that is exactly what everyone was saying

[QUOTE=overwatch pvt;43049991]The front page says their taking the nexus down for maintenance today.[/QUOTE] Anyone got an alternate site for me to DL from then?

[QUOTE=Hexadecimated;43050363]So are you guys just ignoring this or what?[/QUOTE] It's already been translated literally a post below it.

I'm excited as heck for PC Fallout New Vegas. yes it's a game I've played 3 times but now I can have visual mods. EEP.

[QUOTE=Mingebox;43048337]I met her in the trading outpost and then immediately disbanded her because she was annoying.[/QUOTE] Veronica was one of my most favourite companions in Fallout: New Vegas since I like the Brotherhood of Steel alot. EDIT 1: and her character development aswell.

(Besides "not enough songs", I intend to add more) Like I said last time I brought it up in thread, I think I decided the theme for this station is "things I expect hippies to listen to" (which justifies Stevie Wonder well enough imo, but I'm a little on the fence about Grand Funk).

[QUOTE=Wingz;43051411]i dont really get why you chose the led zeppelin songs you did cuz theres so many other good ones you couldve used[/quote] Someone else requested Ozone Baby, and I just plopped in Dancing Days so there would be more than one Zeppelin track in there. More isn't a bad idea, any specific song you have in mind or should I just wing it? [quote]and add freebird[/quote] oh god yes

Do you think Blue Oyster Cult would fit in there? They've got some pretty neat songs.

[QUOTE=BananaFoam;43049185] To be fair, the Enclave were pretty much Nazis in 2 as well.[/QUOTE] That's a big understatement. Enclave in 3 were care bears compared to FO2 Enclave. FO3 Enclave just tried to drum up support with their eyebots before poisoning the water supply. 2's Enclave was actively wiping out settlements and experimenting on villagers to produce a form of FEV that kills all mutated life and release it into the jet stream to cleanse the world for re-population with pure humans.
