    People on the right part of the fence are not even trying to get in.

    And look how chilled the old couple with bathrobes look at the bottom right.
    "Hey ma, you think we should be going in as well?"
    "Nah, let the youngsters have their fun, pa."

    Outside of animal transport, Zepps would probably be the way to go. Fewer parts and less maintenance requirements. Vertibrids never really made sense from a maintenance standpoint. Too many parts with very tight tolerances and no means to reproduce them.

    Trains and Blimps would be the way to go.

    People still care about how Bethesda games look when unmodded? Also Shitcher looks like shit.

    Ron Perlman sounded really bored in that trailer.

    *sigh* "War never changes. Where's my paycheck?"

    Youtube comment, easy target but...

    The bar has been raised, folks.

    In light of recent events and controversy about downgrades (Watch Dogs and Witcher 3) I actually wouldn't be surprised if those fucktard Bethas have actually shown a downgraded last-gen version of the game and are planning to increase the overall graphics quality in the upcoming demonstrations/release. After all, they sincerely love the gaming community and are completely unlike those disgusting money-hungry corporations.

    It's just crazy how much graphics have improved in the last -17 years.

    But the game is already modded! There is no salvation this time around.

    You can only tell the same story so many times without making it sound boring. And the trailer isn't very different from the FO3 intro. Yeah, bombs fell, nuclear shockwaves blew away the pastel-coloured conformist paradise and survivors have nothing better to do than scramble for the rotting remains of civilization forever lost. Stunning news. /yawn

    Obsidian would probably find a new angle but Bethesda won't even try. They're simply bad at storytelling and that's something no mod can fix.

    People aren't graphics whoring, the trailer is just so devoid of any kind of substance that all we really have to go on is graphics. The graphics are pretty notably horrible, too.

    This seriously looks like a graphics mod for Fallout 3.

    Remove the green tint, upped the texture resolution and added some foilage and rays. It barely passes as an upgrade. Seriously, there are games that came out a decade ago that rival if not outright surpass this trailer's graphical fidelity. Ultimately this comes as a price for using an incredibly outdated graphical engine, and it is not just the graphics and animatin that will suffer from this. The game itself will carry the same damn mechanical flaws of the other recent The Elder Scrolls games (Oblivion, Capital Wasteland, Skyrim); The bugs will remain, the lighting will look unnatural and there wont even be shred of ambient occulsion.

    The whole thing just comes across as cheap, if not outright lazy. Not that I blame them of course, since the zombie hordes are bound to eat this shit up regardless. Bethesda could take a shit in a box, put a 60 dollar MSRP on it and still sell millions.
