Preview Karma and using action points in Fallout 3

[JarlFrank]

Two dialogue choices are probably seen as "multiple" by Bethesda.

Well, it's always nice to see someone think differently. It's been rather boring reading the same crap over and over again and not being able to start a discussion because everyone agrees with each other. Thank you Naked Ninja for making FO3 topic more fun than it usually is.

The only quest (Megaton) they used to convince the fans doesn't have a resolution using dialog skills and is a bipolar quest like many of the most simple Fallout quests. The fact that they are sticking with this quest as an example of a cool quest with c&c is very disappointing.

What i'm afraid is that Fallout 3 will not be much different than Oblivion with guns, with 2-3 dialog options instead of 1 we usually get in Oblivon and that these options will be used to get bonus or to pickup a lady in a bar and other funny (Bethesda TM) jokes and not to actually resolve quests using dialog.

Oblivion is a sword-and-sorcery-epic-role-playing-game, you know, the thing you see in Lord of the Rings or stuff like that and at it's heart, you know it is... this run through dungeons and kill things game... and all these features and it's all kind of ... there're so many things you'll get attach to... but at it's heart it's run through dungeons and kill creatures and take good stuff and buy bigger weapons and kill bigger creatures, and thats kind of layered in on top of this, wow look at these flowers, can i pick that? you know, it's almost two things sitting on top of each other, here's that game and then here's the virtual world

Fallout3 is a gun-and-postapoc-epic-role-playing-game, you know, the thing you see in Mad Max or stuff like that and at it's heart, you know it is... this run through post-nukular ruins and kill mutant things game... and all these features and it's all kind of ... there're so many things you'll get attach to... but at it's heart it's run through post-nukular ruins and kill mutant creatures and take good stuff and buy bigger weapons and kill bigger mutant creatures, and thats kind of layered in on top of this, wow look at these dead flowers, can i pick that? you know, it's almost two things sitting on top of each other, here's that game and then here's the virtual world

i've made up the FO3 part from what he actually said about Oblivion in the 'Making Of' movie... but...
