[QUOTE=Saxon;25940787]PC version came out this year though[/QUOTE] Ah, nevermind.
If you think about it... The New Vegas engine, Gamebryo, was used in MORROWIND. It's Outdated. Sure it can have upgrades and look good at times... But it's clumsy and clunky, navigating things like Dialogue and especially your Pipboy to certain areas. Instead of hitting a key to go to map, you hit Tab, click on a button at the bottom, then click on World Map. Now while it fits and is a good idea, it gets tiresome... There are too many windows to be condensed to one thing to be navigated, like an iPhone. This is just one example though It was fine in 2002. But it's almost 2011
I really enjoy this game and I must've atleast spent +20 hours on it. I miss some of the mods from Fallout 3 with Darnified UI as a prime example. The most amazing thing for me in this game is the sense of atleast causing something to happen in Post-apocalyptia as opposed to Fallout 3 when the only thing that really happened in the game world came in Broken Steel.
now make tes5
Now we need Fallout: New York City
[QUOTE=KorJax;25937155]Cool, now they can afford a new engine and maybe more than one animator![/QUOTE] They haven't used any animators since Oblivion, just reused the same old horrible ones.
upon hearing the news; good, i'm glad never played though, have seen my brother play a lot of the earlier Fallout3, anyway it always strikes me as a nice entertaining SP game
Bethesda needs to take more time in their next RPG. If they dumb down TES 5 from Oblivion (god forbid from Fallout), I won't play it. Morrowind was so deep, and Oblivion was so shallow. And now it's sad to me that Oblivion is considered deep compared to Fallout, because Oblivion was hardly deep at all.
[QUOTE=MovingSalad;25938132]This is a brilliant game. It's kept me busy playing for a couple weeks now. Although honestly, Bethesda is nothing the way they used to be. I wish those bastards would go back to taking their time in painstakingly producing original games with original content. I could care less about the engine, or about how buggy it is. All bethesda games are unoptimized and glitchy, but they are also extremely open ended, easily modified and provide hours of entertainment for me. I just wish they'd go back to the way they made games like Morrowind. You can tell they took a lot more time in that game, considering all the unique stuff they made-- all the little notes and side quests and stuff. I wish there was more of that in New Vegas. There are some notes here and there talking about people gambling their savings away, but they don't actually exist. I wish there was more stuff that jumped out at you and made you actually almost believe that the characters are living in post apocalyptic Las Vegas, which is something they didnt do very well to be honest. There's not enough big city feel to it, Freeside is large but it is pretty featureless.[/QUOTE] Morrowind is the best Bethesda game ever made in my opinion. Deepest story, the graphics appeal to me because of the older look, and obviously I haven't beat it yet after having it for a good year. Sadly, my xbox disc broke and I haven't played it in months. :ohdear: I'll probably buy it on Steam.
[QUOTE=Coffee;25936792]Even though the engine for it is a pile of crap?[/QUOTE] Whether the actual engine is crap or not, the game is still awesome so as long as the end result is still good, I'm alright.

It thought it was worst than fallout 3 (at least you could kill more innocent people when you were bored).
I don't really care about the engine, AND the graphics. I care about the story, which I find, maybe not the world's best, but nevertheless entertaining. I care about the wide variety of guns, the ingame references to the real world, movies and so on. I like that you can choose to get [sp]Holy Frag Grenades, find Indiana Jones in a fridge, get attacked by three old ladies and read about how the Romans should go home.[/sp] I care about the large amount of quests and many different (and funny" perks you can choose once in a while. Summed up, I like this game better than every other game released in '10.
I tolerate Gamebryo simply because you can mod it to all fucking shit
[QUOTE=GunFox;25940247]Why do you think they purchased Obsidian? Bethesda themselves have said they enjoyed making fallout 3, but want another developer to take over the creation of the fallout series so that they can return to making elder scrolls games.[/QUOTE] Rumor has it that they are having ID make a whole new engine for it.
[QUOTE=smurfy;25940184]*black ops[/QUOTE] Ahahahaha You're funny. It's Modern Warfare 2 reskinned. The ONLY thing (in my opinion) that Black Ops has going for it is being able to be a Zombie killing Nixon. I'm meeting you hippies halfway AROOOOOOO

[QUOTE=Coffee;25943284]Black Ops looks more fun than MW2.[/QUOTE] MW2 looked more fun than World At War World at War looked more fun than Modern Warfare Modern warfare looked more fun than Cod3.
Hooray, more dlc.
[QUOTE=Zeraxify;25938270]lol @ the bandwagon against fallout's engine in this thread. oh facepunch, you so crazeh.[/QUOTE] no i'm sorry it does suck, the games are fun but the engine just sucks dick
[QUOTE=ZekeTwo;25942286]Yeah they should follow the lead of Valve and use a modern engine[/QUOTE] That's completely different. Source is extremely flexible for starters, and built that way, not only that, every time it seems like it's starting to get out dated, it gets updated, with newer, better and improved features, and this is constantly happening Gamebryo has been around for nearly a decade, and is still missing features that even the most generic of generic games have now because it's lacked any huge overhaul other than visual effects

[QUOTE=MovingSalad;25945124]MW2 looked more fun than World At War World at War looked more fun than Modern Warfare Modern warfare looked more fun than Cod3.[/QUOTE] I dare say that each time it delivered
[QUOTE=ZekeTwo;25942286]Yeah they should follow the lead of Valve and use a modern engine[/QUOTE] the difference being the source engine isn't a huge pile of shit
