    How come Fallout 1 and 2 aren't more popular when New Vegas is?

    Dated graphics, horrible UI and inventory managment, clunky turn based combat (let's get real, most mainstream gamers hate turn based combat), lack of modern features like full voice acting, with actually actors with background in theatre, compared to the 80's -90's theatrical voice hacks...

    Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden - Post-apoc & Turn-based

    Yea, i saw the trailer a couple of weeks ago. Seems to be a console/PC game, that's borrowing the combat mechanics as well as the RPG elements of XCOM:EU (with possibility to upgrade items in your base). Neither innovative nor interesting. Also, you can't create your own character, and the...

    Planescape EE by Beamdog?

    I agree with your post. However, the huge problem with Torment is that encounters and challenges is made through stats checks, mostly Int, Wis and some Charisma based. This design is limiting, and either cripple or boost your character based on which class you choose. A highly intelligent Mage...

    Planescape EE by Beamdog?

    @woo1108 I would like to add something else to your list, namely alignment. In P:T you pretty much need to be lawful good to get the most rewards, followed by chotic evil (if i'm not mistaken). So a lawful good, intelligent and wise character is the best (get the best rewards, and get to use the...

    First Impression of Fallout 4

    Although i havn't played the game myself, i've watched some Streams. The story (FO4), specially the beginning seems to be very similiar to ID's RAGE, with lots of stuff borrowed from Borderlands, some missions ideas from GTA 5 (Deathclaw mission as an example), and the Power Armor (exit and...

    Fallout 4 announced with official trailer

    Bethesda might want to take another approach with this franchise, borrowing elements from Borderlands and Last of us. The real question is; Is this a bad thing? Because i rather play Dishonored:Fallout 4, then an Elder Scrolls:Fallout 4, with the same shit mechanics, laughable writing, feedex...

    Fallout 4 announced with official trailer

    Can't really judge the game based on a trailer. But it seems they borrowed ideas from Borderlands, Rage aswell as some other games, which could be a very good thing, considering Fallout 3 was absolutely garbage, and no one with a brain consider Bethesda Fallout to be the real thing. Protaganist...

    The Dota Thread

    I think the new changes makes him more interesting, might not be for the better, but definitely open up some possibilities. Really don't get why they nerfed Sniper, he if any needs to get better, atleast Lion gained a minor buff which is nice since he is one of my fav heroes. Havn't played...

    What is your definition of RPG?

    I've no idea if you're serious or not. A RolePlayingGame is you playing a character, using a set of differents skills and attributes that affect the probability of success and failure, how the world reacts to your character and in what way you can solve quests. What you're describing is an...

    Fable 3 - Horrendous

    When Fable was released it was marketed by Molyneux himself as an easy, streamlined RPG-adventure, without complex elements that traditional RPGs used. With Fable 2, Fable 3, Fable:the journey and now Fable:Legends they havn't just dumbed down each sequel tremendously, but the new directions the...

    Obsidian's Project Eternity

    The more i hear about PE, the less interested i get, come to think of it, i've no idea why i even backed this game at all, since im never gonna play it. I really dislike the art style and clunky animations, i loathe RTWP, and many of the directions the dev team have took is depressing. I've no...

    The Dota Thread

    But this is your own definition of the word (Sport)rather then the real meaning of it. Here is the very defintion of "Sport"; http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/sport Pretty much every physical activity on a professional level requires immense mental focus and training. To be...

    The Dota Thread

    I've just been introduced to DotA, and i like it, but don't really have the time to play it a much as i would like to. The only drawbacks are players that deliberately ruin others game experience by either sabotage the game by feeding/using hero skills like IO teleport, or Bane's nightmare on...

    Arcanum vs Fallout

    Actually you find Fallout the better game, but belive that Arcanum offers more options, and is less linear then Fallout. Nonlinearity, and giving the player the option to complete quest in multiple ways doesn't make a RPG good, it simply gives the player freedom, and the illusion of him/her...

    Sierra being reborn

    Never was a fan of their games. Didn't they publish Arcanum?

    Arcanum vs Fallout

    Ain't gonna happen bub. I agree that Arcanum is the closest cRPG to a PnP experience, but choices and options, both character customisation and how you complete quests and how the world reacts to it doesn't matter unless the writing, music, athomphere, combat and the setting is well done, and...

    10 best games.

    I'm gonna do a top 15. In no specific order: Fallout (the original) was simply amazing when i first got it, i've completed it a dozen times with every thinkable achetype available, the best RPG. Deus Ex, also a fantastic game when it was released. Shenmue, If you played it on the DC you know...

    Arcanum vs Fallout

    I've never found Arcanum to be more than an mediocre mess. The music is bad and monotone, the setting not so interesting, the writing and companions are also very OKish. I understand that many people find the options and multiple solutions brilliant, but not even that can save it for beeing a...

    Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes Huge Disappointment

    MGS:GZ is a complete rip off, however i have to give it to Sutherland for a terrific performance. Although Hayters over the top voiceover suited the previous games, hes really not a convincing actor, where as Sutherland is a very good actor. I was kinda worried at first, but the direction Kojima...
