I've believe the question should be George Carlin or George Carlin

Thanks for the answers in the previous thread.

If you could pick a locale in the Forgotten Realms for the next D&D game, which one would it be? And also, what's your opinion on the 4th Edition? I thought it got a lot less exciting personally, viewing the changes from the PC gamer's perspective.

The Neverwinter Nights series has had two retail expansions per main game (NWN1, SoU, HotU / NWN2, MotB, SoZ) - do you think that this business concept is still valid, or is the emergence of Downloadable Content going to change things? Call me old fashioned, but I still prefer my games boxed.

One thing I loved in Fallout 1 & 2 were seeing all the quotes when shift clicking (I think that's what I did, been a while) the credits option in the main menu. I'm sure you loved that to...right? *nudge nudge*

What gave you guys the idea to create Fallout New Vegas? Why Las Vegas, too?

Yes, it's New Vegas, but what if it was a different name?

Programming or system design. There is math all over the place if you look for it, but those two crunch the most numbers. It also depends on the type of math you enjoy. A little math helps all over the place.


I almost always play 'the good guy' in my first play through of games these days. If the choices look compelling enough, I will play through again and see 'the other path'.


My 360. Second place -- anywhere the drive is long and I get to see the country from ground level.


Monday. It means a new week of working on FNV!

What were the other ideas as far as the setting and place for the next fallout game?

Personally, I do not. IMO Video Games can be artistic and mostly made up up artistic components, but as a whole it is meant to be an experience. I do not consider card or board games art either. IMO, If games were an art, no company would worry about how much money there is to made, or say "no" to projects based on statistics that say a game won't do well in the marketplace. I beleive art is done for art's sake and video game development is just a business like any other. That's not to say that I don't feel like an artist everyday, which I do, but I understand my art is being used in business.



The best part is working with other people. I played a lot of team sports when I was younger, so I appreciate the team aspect of video game development. Working at Obsidian is even better since many of these folks have been my co-workers/friends for many years now.

The worst part is indecisiveness, or lack of leadership. FNV doesn't suffer from these things, but I have been on projects before, that have, and it makes things miserable for me.



YAY! Another sequel! -jk I was very excited. I'm really pleased to have an opprotunity to work in the world of Fallout again. I have many happy memories from my experience on Fallout 2, and have been creating new ones on FNV.



RPG's aren't my thing, so no. I'm am so terrible (stupid) at playing games that I have to play things that are REALLY simple to understand and nothing that requires a large investment of time. I'd have no trouble with it otherwise.

Whats it like seeing that almost all of your fans have been members of your own forum many many more months than you? lol

Hello all,

I have three questions:

1) Will the graphics engine be overhauled from Fallout 3? And if so, will it look like the trailer that was released? (or are you planning on it?)

2) Will there be better animations in Fallout: New Vegas compared to Fallout 3? (or are you planning on it?)

3) Will the Enclave make a appearance (my favorite faction )?

Thanks For your time

I got some questions for the Devs...

1- what have been your inspiration for F:NV? Are you using some inspiration from Fallout 3 and getting your own signature to it?

2- I know most of your were part of the original Fallout so how does it feel to have your baby back to you?

3- This is one a bit "political", do you guys agree or disagree that the gaming scene is offering more and more less quality products and more customer "fashion" games, selling out to the most economical "safe" or some gaming companies still hold game making as a means of upping the imagination bar and boundaries despite "fashions"?

What was the first game any of you played?

What is your favorite number?

Favorite letter?

IF VIDEO GAMES ARN'T ART, then what do you consider mirror's edge? That game is one of my favorite games, I consider it a piece of art..

Favorite recent movie?

quick question for any of the devs:

do you guys ever use TPS reports?

Who are you rooting for in todays Superbowl?

Probably Candy Land.Talk about game balance.

The first RPG I played was DnD 1st Edition when I was 7 or 8.

The first CRPG I played was Ultima ONE! Back when games came in ziploc baggies.

Lima Beans - tool of the devil, or healthy food item? Discuss.

What do you usually eat for breakfast?
If the Fallout world was real, where would you want to live?
Do you like Monty Python??

Question primarily for MCA and J. E. Sawyer (although open to all): You were described by the recent PC Gamer article as "an advert for the clean Californian lifestyle" and "slim". Having a primarily sedentary job in an industry associated with long hours, particularly around crunch time, how do you maintain this physique?

i.e. what're the specifics of your workout routines and daily eating?

For example, do you set aside a length of time at a specific hour every day; favour free weights, competitive sports or lone cardio? Do you stick rigorously to a diet of certain foods?

What's your favorite Fallout title?

If this has already been asked, I apologize severly, but I am far too lazy to read everything.

About how many hours do you guys clock in daily making this game? Are your friends and family upset at how much time your spending worknig your asses off for us?

Do you lot have a cookie day too?
:cookie:

I don't know if you follow the suggestions threads, but if you do, have there ever been any ideas that you 'borrowed' from those threads? Can you tell us which ones?
