I suppose I'm more asking for feedback than "advice". I've been rolling this concept in my mind for a few years already, but just now gotten to put it all on paper and production. I'm a mechanics kind of guy as those who might remember me know. The charactersystem I've been toying around so far...

Yeah, it is a hobby project I do little by little when I have time and energy, and it will be very… rudimentary; learning the ropes and tools. Mostly text and menuwindow’s with few thematic illustrations since I’m not an artist nor an animator. Basically a visualized rulesystem and a story with...

Hi, I’m sometimes here and sometimes not, but since I’ve kinda liked the vibe here, I’m telling you about my hobby-program. I’ve complained about plenty of games, and now I’m finally starting to create my own. It’s not exactly postapocalyptic, but it has elements that might evolve it into one...

It... Kinda was that. Not just "was going to be".

Ah yes, 25 years, the quarter of a century mark. 18 of which have been nothing but watching worms devour the corpse. :smug: edited for an embarrassing math mistake…which nobody saw…

I had Wasteland and Crescent Hawk's Inception on C64 when I was a kid. Not that I knew shit about how to "master" or beat them, but I had lots of fun with them anyway.

I’m actually glad, they’re trying something a bit different and don’t simply make a clone or semi-clone (like Atom or Wasteland 2, and I’m certain I’m forgetting some), but do I still think Fallouts combat was fine; I even like it the way it is because it kinda underlines that there’s more to...

I don’t really mind the FPP combat as a concept, although provided that it makes a decent effort at emulating the abstract of the situation (cover, distances, partymembers, etc). I would’ve probably gone full textparser ala Wasteland and given some choice attack- and death-animations. But be...

Nah. But I don’t really care about this game enough to start giving Bethesda shit about it. I’m just peeking from behind the fence - so to speak - and looking what happens. Only a handfull of indies make games that I can honestly say I like anymore, and as such, if something comes up...

Nice. Still needs some work at least on the menus and interfaces, but it plays pretty smoothly and looks sort of nice.

I’m not really sure about this. Depends very much about the RPG systems they decide to implement in this, whether or not I’ll be interested, because I kinda don’t need a shooterified No Man’s Sky.

Neither did I to be honest. But it kinda stuck with me for seeing it used so frequently; and furthermore seeing the attitude of people using it. Even though I don’t really see myself fitting with either, I’ve noticed that with certain mindsets they are kinda depictive. ”Combatfags” craving for...

I was thinking... I've been away for a while and now that I've returned to watch a bit, I was reminded about the thought that "Fallout is all about the setting and story", which I disagree with the strongest of therms, but allow for those who think like that. So with that out, I thought "What...

I'm not into loooooong explanations of things at this point anymore. Turnbased simulates a "realtime player controlled event" much better than a real time itself, or realtime with pause. Realtime itself denies the player the sort of senses he would otherwise have. Realtime with pause...

America is already a cultural meltingpot. That’s where it comes from. Outside of immigration, the question about national borders (both Canada and Mexico) and how that affects the US wasteland around those borders might actually be somewhat interesting and worth a few stories.
