    Todd discovered decline when Morrowind's xbox port happened to be as cool (for him) as the pc version.

    Comment on that video.

    "I spent about 100-120 hours into Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 3. I never realised that they use bottle caps as their currency."

    How the fuck? :retarded:Are these people lobotomized or something.

    Maybe English isn't his first language, and he thought "caps" was slang for dough? And he never picked up a loose cap in the entire game?

    I dunno. :D

    One word: Morbid curiosity.

    And even if everyone will play it, it doesn't mean that everyone will buy FO4.

    Think again. Didn't play Fallout 3, and F:NV wouldn't run on my comp (some sound issue making the game choke).

    Even found that Fallout 2 was decline vs Fallout 1. Kung Fu chinese town? Please. Fallout 2 started the theme park shit.

    I have only played Fallout 1. Haven't even made it onto 2 yet.

    If they put in the BFG 9000 then they are in with a chance for 4. I have a soft spot for Doom.
    Problem is they will make the BFG 9000 part of a DLC pack and then you will have to unlock it after paying for it.
    So I pay them money on top and then they will force me to "work" inside the game to unlock it.


    Idkfa will that work?

    What's with you and the BFG 9000 joke? You need to get a new angle.

    The BFG is the ultimate gun so it's the ultimate subject for a gun joke.

    I think we can all agree that FO1 was a major decline compared to the Fallout demo.

    I have an almost two decades old soundcard for music production, not made for gaming, no EAX / "acceleration". Don't know if the issue's been fixed with F:NV, maybe I should try again, but Bethesda's engine is such a turn off.

    I run games fine otherwise.

    While doing my TES video I read that Rolston had a much more off-hand "zen old man on the hill" involvement with Oblivion and Todd took most of the major decisions this time around. I am unsure but I think the Dark Brotherhood and The Thieves Guild had the most involvement from Rolston.

    But I fully agree that the man is scatterbrained and probably hit&miss when it comes to making games (I haven't played The Long Dark yet but a lot of people told me that it is really good so maybe Rolston struck again.)

    1322% vs 405%?

    Unsurprisingly, sales can't cure poor taste.

    I almost definitely will; I enjoy the basic Bethesda format. We'll see though - this Shepardization of the main character is really not sitting well with me. Looking forward to more info on that.

    And unlike pretty much all previous Bethesda RPGs, a D1P is unlikely on this one.

    It's worth, at this point, keeping up hope that it'll turn out to be alright or even get the revered status of "good for what it is", although the trailer was pretty laughable.

    Or people who haven't tried a franchise before but have heard about it because it is in the news recently are more likely to start with the earlier one rather than the later one. Might be different if Fallout 3 was really dated compared to New Vegas, but they were only a few years apart and basically have the same graphics quality.

    Bethesda doesn't fix bugs or patch their games (worth a shit anyway) and the DLC is usually pretty garbage. That would be why.

    I'm older and wiser now, but honestly Beth games haven't been that buggy for me. I D1Pd Fallout 3, New Vegas, and Skyrim (well - Skyrim was a gift) and they all played fine out of the box for me.
    Yes, even New Vegas.

    As for GOTY editions, to use the example of Fallout 3, that GOTY came out a full year after the initial release. When I'm hyped for a game, a year is way, way too long to wait.

    The reason I don't plan to D1P Fallout 4 is neither because of anticipated bugs nor GOTY bundle savings - it's because watching a Troy Baker movie just isn't a $60 value.
