    Chris Avellone was falsly accused, accussers had no intent

    I'm glad that he turned out to be innocent. The rate of false sexual abuse accusations is still extremely low in comparison to true accusations, much less compared to the rate of unreported sexual abuse, so I'm not really interested in complaining about the women who accused him. Ultimately...

    Reverse engineering Fallout 2

    It sucks that he was affected by the sanctions, but I wouldn't take that as a sign the sanctions are inherently bad. Hopefully the files have been backed up by him and other people, and can be uploaded elsewhere.

    Starfield

    You do have a point about passion. Though, Rockstar did manage to pack an incredible level of detail into Red Dead 2.

    Things you like from Fallout 3

    JHE is genuinely an interesting character and it's a shame the game's writing is so hacky that he (or almost anyone else for that matter) isn't explored much. The idea of the leader of the east coast Enclave and "President of the US" being an insane AI who wants to enact his own version of the...

    Starfield

    You'd think Bethesda would know to pay attention to detail given the high fidelity of modern triple-A games, which they happen to make. Maybe it'll be fixed or already has been fixed - the game's not even out yet, after all. I guess we'll see. As for boycotting Starfield, well...

    Credibility level of porting FO1/2 to modern consoles?

    That's a fair analysis. Bethesda would probably never do it in the first place, anyhow.

    How did you discover Fallout ?

    Fallout 76 is such an online-only, microtransaction-pushing grindfest I don't think I could be bothered to play it. I barely slogged through Fallout 4 as it was.

    I know this is heresy, but I like Fallout 76

    Indeed, and it's not even that post nuclear with the way they've treated the setting. In Fallout 3 and Fallout 4, people were still scrounging in the ruins and aping pre-war '50s style culture, not building anything new, over 200 years after the Great War. At least their environment design makes...

    Why do people think Fallout 3 was actually good?

    I like that this video is basically the equivalent of a Fallout 3 fever dream.

    How'd you get your username?

    Er...guess. (Technically the Enclave guy you can contact from Gecko might not be a commander or commanding officer, but given that he can supposedly dispatch Vertibird kill teams to the player, it's debatable.)

    Why do people think Fallout 3 was actually good?

    So, I finished my last ever playthrough of Fallout 3 on Xbox. Liberty Prime is blown up only for the Brotherhood to revive him again in Fallout 4, because why get rid of a popular character? When you assault Adams AFB the game literally gives you a superweapon that makes the ensuing fight much...

    Credibility level of porting FO1/2 to modern consoles?

    Oh. Well...that would kind of put a halt to things, I guess. Unless there's someone insane enough to reverse engineer it, but I have no idea if there's someone that nuts out there.

    Credibility level of porting FO1/2 to modern consoles?

    A console release would almost certainly be a remastered or enhanced version of some kind, that's a good point. Don't know why I didn't think of it before. It's also true that Bethesda may not care enough to do a good job of such a release. If it ever happened, I'd be rightly skeptical just like...

    Credibility level of porting FO1/2 to modern consoles?

    I think Bethesda should port Fallout, Fallout 2, and maybe Tactics to modern consoles, just for the hell of it. Maybe it would introduce more people to the original games, which is always a plus. Making the display appropriate for modern high-def TVs while sitting feet away on a couch would be...

    How did you discover Fallout ?

    I got Fallout 3 around when it came out, liked it a lot during a dark time in my life, then got curious and poked around online. I found this site and gradually realized the classic games were better. I think I ended up trying 1 and 2 on and off in 2009/2010, and posting questions about them on...

    Would Fallout games/media set in alternate endings work?

    There's definitely potential, yeah. I'd like to see the outcome of a Steel Plague/Enclave war, or Unity/Enclave war. These possibilities sit between the reuse of classic game factions that Bethesda went with and the entirely new ideas that Black Isle devs said they'd have come up with if tasked...

    Why do people think Fallout 3 was actually good?

    I mean yeah, it's still stupid as hell, but at least the game now actually lets you send someone in who can survive the purifier activation.

    I know this is heresy, but I like Fallout 76

    Hey, glad to hear you got some enjoyment out of 76. I don't know if I'll play it - I still have no idea if the writing or story is actually good despite the massive and needed overhaul they did with the Wastelander update, and with Bethesda's writing chops I have little confidence it is. I liked...
