Fallout: Aftermath Fan Made Script Based Game

Post » Wed May 16, 2012 7:37 am

I started making this game and I just want to get everyone's opinion on it. Because I haven't had anyone say anything on it yet, I don't know if I'm going in the right direction. Do you guys think I should continue or stop (I'm going to finish the game no matter what so I can put it on a college application). I still in High School, but don't think I can't make a kick-a game. Also, I don't know if I'm allowed to do this. I emailed Bethesda asking them permission to do this a while back, but I never got a response. Should I just make it because it's free and I'm not making money, or should I not put it up for download because I don't have permission? Anyways, tell me what you guys think about this game and if you have any ideas or speculation about it.

Here's the link to the trailer:

I really need to know if you guys think you'll like it or not! :D

Yup no problems in the forseeable future using Fallout as the name...

I love the idea of text based games. <3 Thanks for putting the thread up, I completely forgot about them.

Don't stop making it. Finish the game so you can add it to your portfolio!

Oh yeah, it's based after the events of Fallout: New Vegas, which is why I'd need permission.

Just change the name. If it doesn't become a big thing then Bethesda probably won't find out.

A text-based game! I love playing text-based adventures, nothing to hinder your imagination from running wild. You might want to re-consider the name, though. Bethesda lawyers are touchy about copyright issues.

He's not makng money or copying anyone's work. Right? IP is still a grey area.

If Beth hassles you move to China to finish your game lololol
