I will say one thing, though. I am DEFINITELY glad there is no mini-game for speech. The persuasion mini-game in Oblivion was probably the most ridiculous thing I saw in that game.

I was thinking today about how to make the game seem more interesting in certain ways. Not by installing mods. At least not yet. But by making up little "rules" not built into the engine. For example, whenever going into hostile interiors, I don't quicksave at all. I simply rely on autosaves. I...

I thought VATS was supposed to provide some appeal to those that like the RPG aspect of the game and aren't good at FPS games. Maybe I should check that out sometime. What is it?

well now that I know about the closed brackets and parenthesis, I can take back most of what I said before about hacking. I also didn't know that when it says something like "2/6 entry correct" its not just referring to the letters, but their placement as well.

There are lots of things I find annoying about Fallout 3. But, like Oblivion, it can still be addicting as heck. I actually ordered the Fallout Collection DVD shortly after I finished FO3 with my first character. I guess I will see what stuff was "better" about old school fallout soon.

Well yeah, the passwords could be sort of related to the place. But you will find many words in the hacking code that fall into that category. So it still is, by most accounts, a guessing game. And my science skill doesn't seem to make hacking "Easy" terminals any easier. It simply lets you...

On the surface, it looks more technical than the hacking procedure found in other FPS/RPG games. In practice, it's just a matter of opening up the terminal several times, taking 3 guesses at a time, repeating, until you get the correct password. And most of the time, the password isn't even...
