I’ve beaten the game three times, started up a ton of characters to fiddle with builds

Sounds like you enjoyed the game and you agree with his review.

 

[PlanHex]

I doubt we can hope for anything better than New Vegas 2 but good to know someone semi-prominent wants an actual fallout-like fallout game too.

 

[Infinitron]

Haha, he doesn't even try to remove the yearnful begging tone from his voice. Godspeed, George.

Totalbiscuit was also complaining about Fallout officially becoming a shooter with stats in his podcast (and comparing it unfavorably to New Vegas). Hopefully, he makes a video about this and spreads this opinion around, not like with DA:I last year (he though it was a grindy single player MMO, but never made a video).

I love this guy, enough to watch reviews of him on games I won't play and don't even have any interest in.

I feel that way about antisocialfatman.

Doubt TB will do anything but a Port Report or something. Haven't really seen him do much for longer games, especially RPGs. Guess it's hard to invest the time what with the ass-cancer and all.

I'll just copy my youtube comment. Damn what a video.

Spoiler

This is probably one of the worst SBH videos, maybe it was the time pressure:

: -The popularity argument is flawed due to how much the franchise lost in the process (they are essentially glorified shooters with stats and fallout 4 pushes this even further) and since when did mainstream appeal become a plus to those have an interest in a medium? Just imagine if the first part of this video was about From Software games and how now is the time for some spin-offs or how if there were changes to make those games easier than that would be good because MAINSTREAM APPEAL! People would scream bloody murder.

-The concept of a spin-off (In video games) usually referrers to some genre changes as well. I don't think people view the different GTA games in-between numbered sequels as spin-offs, maybe more like expansions? (There should be a word describing this and sidequel sounds stupid). I mean, would we consider Majora's Mask a spin-off or expansion? The point is there is a huge difference in people's minds between a set of games like Fallout 3 and Fallout:NV in comparison to let us say Halo and Halo:Wars.

-Fallout:New Vegas is an absolutely terrible example and has someone who has journalistic roots I find it disappointing coming from George. Obsidian came to Bethesda with a really polished pitch and plan plus aided by the fact that people who worked on the original Fallouts were on the team. Bethesda liked it so they green lighted it. I don't see the "happy accident" here (if by happy accident George is referring to the simple fact that they sent the pitch in then that is stupid, pitches and projects die each day in this industry. Take the Alien project pitch by Obsidian has an example). The vast majority of good spin-offs in this day and age come from some creative force managing to convince corporate aspects (like Lucien Soulban in Blood Dragon's case). When the corporate aspects embrace sequels we get Fallout Shelter so I find the entire premise and point of this video to be simply put...stupid.

If nothing else, he is at least right about Siege being preferable to Patriots, which looked like Gears of War meets Heavy Rain.

I am convinced SBH flagrantly mispronounces one word per video as a game. Idealology, Fine-esse.

 

[PlanHex]

For a second I thought it was a joke. IdeaLOLogy.
Doesn't really seem it like it though.

Isn't the finesse pronunciation just a matter of accents? Think I've heard it both ways before.

 

[Mozg]

Checking my post history I noted before when he pronounced "progenitors" as "progenators".

The man is playing a game; to see who on the internet notices it. I am the winner.

Hmm, did he seriously say that Wing Commander is more complex than Tie Fighter, but Tie Fighter is better at world building?

 

[Darth Slaughter]

Hmm, did he seriously say that Wing Commander is more complex than Tie Fighter, but Tie Fighter is better at world building?

Maybe he was talking about the branching results, but in no way Wing Commander series is more complex than X-wing series.

I don't know if he actually played them since a lot of the presentation-type stuff he praises was already done by Wing Commander.

 

[Grunker]

Yeah I doubt it. I'm pretty sure he's played the SW flight games pretty extensively but hasn't touched Wing Commander or Privateer that much.

Could've sworn Opposing Force was standalone (or expandalone or whatever), but maybe I'm thinking of Gunman Chronicles or what it's name was, which I bought when I was a kid because I thought it was another HL expansion.
Also, good comment:

You're probably thinking of Blue Shift, which was stand-alone and marketed as such.

 

[Infinitron]

It's a shame the episode wasn't longer - he didn't have much time to talk about those actually good DLCs (or rant more about the bad ones).

 

[Jaedar]

A bad episode imo. He just sorta blathers for the full duration, not really making any point that couldn't be made in less than a minute total.

 

[Damned Registrations]

Well, he did say it was jsut a half-assed thing he did so he'd have time for reviewing 2015.

 

[Mozg]

The DS1 dlc is kinda ehh in retrospect honestly, I feel like he hasn't really updated his opinion about it lately since DS1 has been out of its mega-honeymoon period. All the stuff besides four good to very good bosses and Gough is just kinda there - recycled terrain, lame enemies. They also wasted a chunk of resources on a bunch of shitty PvP stuff that almost no one was both able and willing to play. As far as I can see the BB DLC has as much raw stuff between bosses and new weapons.
