Since I know how yall get big wobbly nerd boners over things that make F3 a little closer to 1/2, I thought I would share this. The F3 Radscorpions retextured in the style of 1/2. Enjoy.

Please explain how Fallout 3 switches instead of adds. Every decision after you get out of the Vault is permanent. In fact it's more permanent than the old fallout's since you can't Mutate! and change a previous decision. You can't discard your old character configuration in fallout 3, you...

How is that anything but a semantic dodge? If you make a strength 10 brawler in fallout 3 and then decide you only want to use plasma weapons you don't get a refund on those points. Just because I prefer that style doesn't mean I hate all games that do limit you. I don't consider it a core...

Ummm, yes you can. I think you make a mistake when you say Bethesda, and earlier me, don't understand it. I understand it and disagree. I don't share your massive boner for locking a character's path in from the outset and seemingly neither does Bethesda. This change only makes it harder...

What? I'm not even sure how to parse that. Almost all RPGs (at least WRPGS) allows you some control in directing your characters developement. You make choices about which skills/stats to dump points into, pick out your equipment/nanomods/etc. And though it is often lacking, you also have...

Yeah, you are correct and I was wrong. I could have sworn you started with enough for a 6 baseline so I loaded it up to check. 40 starting points.

I always considered the immutability of the old games stats something of a flaw. My personal definition of an RPG is a game where you control the arc of development (in a crude statistical sense, but also a personal development sense) for a character. That you could go from someone who can't...

I REALLY don't understand the complaints about intense training. In f1/2 you start with 42 special points, enough to get every stat to 6. In addition you can take gifted which gives you another 7 points, raising it to 49. Almost everyone took gifted because it was miles better than everything...

There isn't a difference. The thing is that australia has an R rating for movies but it goes from Teen to Refused Classification(BANNED) for games.

Pretty sure the RPS staff is mostly Brits.

A SUPERsledge??!?! Why don't they just call it a +1 mace? I don't know why they swapped out "Officer" for the more prosaic "Military Leader". You can see it in the inventory and it's called Chinese Officer's Sword. Anyway people call it a chainsaw because it has chainsaw teeth and the...

A cylinder with handles, a large nozzle, and tubes running to a backpack is not exactly a super exotic design. Both are just based on old army flamethrowers.

Some of the videos like the Capitol and Washington Monument seem to be truncated.

I'm sure Brother None realizes it, but that's exactly where I was leading Garlic. The Radiation King brand is one of the first things you see in the intro to the original Fallout. However, in the context that he understood it, as an invention of Bethesda, suddenly it's style is something the...

Ohh hush None, I know you're fake posting. I want to hear what his answer is.

I'm just going to zero in on this comment as I feel it's pretty emblematic of the problems with a lot of the negativity around here. Why does the TV being Radiation King brand make no sense?

Minor note, the WILD selection on the Fatman spinner seems to randomly choose a video to play. It also includes at least one video normally unavailable, that of a Fatman shot vs a group of human raiders. Also nothing in the videos actually speak to the rarity of the Fatman or the Behemoths.

I'd always thought the figure in the Mullins concept art was fairly ambiguous.

Ooohh... look closely at the Jefferson Memorial video. I don't think those two figures are human. The concept art for the interior of the memorial showed humans manning the machines inside. Non hostile supermutants? A change in plans for that location? My eyes playing tricks on me?

Ahh one thing I was wrong about, the audio you hear while in the Protection Pod is random. I haven't heard the mutant trying to remember if he knew a woman or if he was that woman or ARGHRGHRH IT HURTS
