[Love]

I had to save this from /v/ yesterday. It's so good it hurts.

>colorless
>monochromatic

Having one color is still having colors. Go see shaman, get hole in head.

I just remembered NV has yellow colour correction.

So Piss filter or Dirt filter, which is better and why.

Discuss.

 

[Lemming42]

They're both inexplicable choices by the art departments, both games look infinitely better with Fellout running.

 

[Yabuike]

Achromatic and the art team should have know it wasn't going to work for NV.

 

[Karwelas]

You will see the face that never remembered in Bethesda's E3 show of the game.

And it will be best part of the fucking game.

They teach color formulas in these entertainment design schools mills. It's really hack level stuff based on easy to remember shorthand, like using color coding/color fields to bruteforce a specific atmosphere or mood into a game (see Diablo 3). If you ever see someone defending Hollywood's usage of orange and teal, they probably came from one of these mills or some other shitty art school.

Why do so many people think that the true essence of Fallout is about wandering in empty piles of rubble?

This is the part of Fallout 3 that raises my hackles the most. The idea that the Fallout games were all about survival when both of the original games were fucking loaded with communities rising from the ashes. In the original games you have Shady Sands turning into NCR and for some reason people are still more compelled by empty subway tunnels with growling ghouls rushing at them. "The spirit of Fallout, we've missed it."

This fucking youtube celebrity phenomenon makes me so glad I am srsly old and close to death.

Seeing as he's being ironic that'd be the average codexer being butthurt at people complaining about witcher 3/fallout 4 grafix.

 

[Zombra]

I was completely serious when I said it's fine for Fallout 4 to not look like Fallout, because it's unlikely to be Fallout in any way. But at least I recognize that bright colors are a substantial artistic departure from the original games.

FO1 and 2 were more colorful than 3.

Fair enough.

Wow, sorry about not watching a video with some obese dude in thumbnail

Well see, they don't even realize that they are wrong on an objective level. If you are comparing 2 games in a 4 game series and 2 of the other games are like game A (and those games were the first two in the set), and no others in the series are like game B, then game A can't be said to be not have 'the feeling that a game in said series should have, ' thus it is game B that does not have the right feeling.

A few years ago and I would have raged so hard about this announcement. Guess now I can be considered 'clean' and can just shrug.

Fallout died after the first two games anyway, so why care.

Was going to reply to that, then I saw the username and thought all is good and well in codexia.

Fallout 3 was super grimdark postapocalyptic that's for sure! Between the emo teenager town, the little kids fort holding off the super mutants, the food and water everywhere, dudes starting museums, chicks writing books, everyone being educated and knowing American history, better literacy rates than today apparently. So dark men, so dark, never seen a world so bleak and hopeless.

Especially when compared against the bright and colorful NV, lel that place was so friendly! There was people being crucified, raped, a war, cannibal gangs, political corruption, the roads were cut off by death claw infestations, drug cartels xaxaxa that's like first world problems men.

 

[toroid]

Hey wasn't there an animated gif that showed Fallout's corpse getting raped by Bethesduh, or something similar? It's time to start spreading those around again.


edit:
Nevermind. This is probably the one I was thinking of.

editedit:
still think I remember seeing a corpse gif..

 

[Curious_Tongue]

They both seem happy.

 

[Metro]

So edgy.

 

[Mech]

They both seem happy.

Fallout is just happy to be getting some kind of action after all these years.

They both seem happy.

LMAO @ all of this anal annihilation. At least FO4 seems to be encapsulating what Fallout is about: humanity rising from the ashes. FO3 did a shit job at that. I say we wait for gameplay and more details to arise before we write the game off as utter shit.
