I've been waiting for this game 10 years. It looks great.
Why do you hate it Ontopoly?

So 10 years ago when you fell in love with Baldurs Gate this is what you imagined it to be? You probably had a much different picture in your head. It would make more sense if you said you have been waiting for this game for 5 years after you finished dos2.

Big RPG franchises changing over time is nothing new to the genre. Take a look at the Ultima series, or Might and Magic, or even Wizardry. As long as it is not a complete departure from the original design philosophy this is not a bad thing per se.

You think BG3 will be as good as GOAT FNV? I wouldn't go that far...
Which begs the question:
Could someone point me towards those FO:NV hate megathreads with people bitching that it's just FO3:2, has nothing in common with originals (3D FPP instead of iso, RTWG* instead TB) and that the mechanics is (that time actually true) decline from FO1&2?

Or is it just that we don't have those threads for FO:NV, with the sole reason we do have them for BG3 being that BG fans, and RTWP fans specifically, are whiny turds?

Why don't we have a thread like this but for a 10 year old game? Someone show me a 10 year old thread please. Maybe if I liked guns I would be upset about fonv but I hate guns and don't like fallout so I'm not going to make a thread about it. Btw people actually were upset about fallout going 3d and tossing a bunch of rpg out with it

If I'd been on the forum when it was released, rest assured I would've started one.

And yet you would have been proven wrong as FNV is an established cult classic and codex favorite by now.

And keep in mind FNV is a far bigger departure from the original Formula than BG3.

Actually, unless my memory fails me, the Codex used to be filled to the max with posts claiming New Vegas was just a mod/expansion for Fallout 3, and was still decline. The Codex only accepted New Vegas as incline much later. I remember one of my first posts here was praising New Vegas in 2013, and people jumped on me instantly....

The style of dialogue options

Yeah, it does seem basic. Very DAI-like. What I meant is we wont get talking lobsters and cat quest-givers.

Swen confirmed, in post-stream interview, that there will be pets in the camp and interaction with animals in the wild. To what extent? don't know
I hope they let you keep gnomes as pets

I'm hoping to have you as a pet in my camp.

fallout new vegas is garbage. Its only praised because it is better than fallout 3, and people were desperate. Like a prisoner praising being allowed an hour of exercise time after a year of solitary confinement. Compared to actual freedom though, it can't compare. If FNV was the first fallout after Fallout 2 people would have shit on it for being 3D and looking like garbage, not being like the originals etc, it would not have fared nearly as well.

It is being propped up next to the ugly fat girl, so it looks a lot better than it is. Meanwhile, the hot girl we used to go out with is gone forever...ohhh! but look! The 175 pound girl is not as disgusting to fuck as the 300 pound hairy oxen..awesome! Must mean she is a model.

Can someone make a mod for bg3 when it comes out that removes the Baldur's Gate title? Just change the name to something else

Generally speaking, the ones needing it won't be playing and those who will won't need it.
But maybe it would be a strong message to cunt face swen. Modders are going to have to fix half his game, why not the most important flaw?

It would indeed be a prestigious endeavor.

Stop. You're embarrassing me

Get a room you two.

After the malformed abomination that was F3, FNV looks like a godsend.
So the game that isn't formally a sequel but inherits most of its, so called "DNA" from genuine rapesequel of legendary predecessors, being effectively a glorified expansion to said rapesequel is ok even if it doesn't look anything like originals and the new mechanics is mostly decline and gimmickry, and game that is technically a sequel of an overhyped so-so game, and inherits some of its looks and actual mechanical innovations from a game that was not part of the series is... not... because? Uhh... I could use some help here?

Because Vegas is genuine improvement compared to F3. As flawed as Vegas is it has it's own good moments and nowhere near as awful as F3, which is a big selling point in itself. After someone suffocates you with plastic bag in the basement, but you struggle out of it, you don't complain that air is stale and moist. It's air, and it's better than plastic bag.
