I actually found Joker in the Mass Effect series more memorable than Oz in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Not much of a comparison though, other than that both characters are played by the same actor.

Would power armor offer high DR? Or, as in XCOM, large sums of extra 'health'? Great post, btw. FO3/NV have awful combat mechanics, but frankly, I felt like the FO1/FO2 combat mechanics are terrible too. I don't play 'any' of the FO games for their game play, thats for sure. Edit...

I actually thought the voice acting in Skyrim was terrible, too, on par with NV and FO3. Just because they have 'accents' doesn't mean they don't sound empty and equally uninspiring (or unmotivated?). Then again, I hate that game about all around, so maybe its just contaminated my experience...

Two playthroughs 1st was NCR supporter, 1 charisma, milliteristic approach, energy weapons build. 2nd was NCR supporter, 10 charisma, diplomatic approach, guns build (assault carbine mostly) Each playthrough about 80 hours long ~ 160 hours total. PS: Both playthroughs, blew up the BoS!

The size of his nose....so...awesome 0_0

Is honest hearts worth it? Or any of the NV DLC for that matter?

I'd be ok with Tunnel Snakes being referenced as an easter egg/cameo appearance, I guess. But really...I would love for FO4 to have almost nothing to do with any of its prequels, if only because FO3 and FONV have recycled so much from FO1/FO2.

I don't know how much of this was actually in the game, or how much of it I just 'made up' to make a more believable story for myself; But I always assumed the Enclave was trying to either 'control' the purifier in some way to only give water to citizens they deemed 'pure'; or more likely...

Agree with Lyra in terms of voice acting of main character. But only if its good voice acting. Beth...Needs...better...voice..acting.....-baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaadly- (not to overstate)

True. I guess it doesn't have to be the engine - it just needs to be different somehow. Unlike FO:NV, its called FO4, so hoping for something fresh. [/i]

A lot of talk on this Arcanum game. Must be good. Is it easy to get a hold of?

To be fair, if FO3 hadn't come out, the fallout series in general might have remained more obscure - reducing the probability of spawning said ponies. Or maybe they'd still do it. I didn't even know they had FO ponies. Thanks for scarring me.

Freakin' awesome, man ^^

Dragon Age Origins used some like 6 unique intro stories, and I thought it still had a solid main story/quest line. Not sure how the budgets compare though. Also had (albeit not super commonly) some NPCs react to your character differently pending on your origin pick. I think multiple...

Probably exactly what they're thinking : /

Not sure how much of it has been said - I'm feeling terribly lazy right now and did not bother to read. But my list: 1) All original/mostly original content. Its kind of depressing that nearly all of the content in FO3 and FONV came from previous fallout games. Only the great Kai Sar...

Like they did in dragon age Origins? Was reading the thread on possible race selection and made me think - maybe instead of choosing a race (or in addition to choosing a race); choose a faction for your character. Or just a background. If it was similar to DA:O (dragon age: Origins), they...

Ekaaannnnz! (not a Pokemon fan, but I love Ekans) Super Mutant Lt. in FO1 was most memorable for me too. Maybe its just to do with getting imprisoned and tortured (or threatened with torture). Ceasar had some positives too it, but I'd still mostly put them in morally black and NCR in...

Not to stray too far off topic, but in regards to XCOM, I'd have to echo Darkcorp. You might not like a lot of the changes done to the new XCOM, and I totally agree, its been somewhat 'dumbed down' (hate how easy it is to exploit alien aggro for example), but at its fundamental core - is it...

Makes sense - I flipped when they made an XCOM FPS game (called Alliance). That was a genre shift that really upset me; so I have no room to accuse someone who hates a genre shift in FO close-minded. And yeah - new one was great. Still partial to the old one on account of my own nostalgic...
