I haven't really played any of the games pre-F3, but I can tell you now that this fits in better with any lore that should be in a game like this. There shouldn't be knights in shining armour, and not everyone should survive until tomorrow. There would never be happy endings where nobody died in a real war, so it shouldn't be like that in a game about war.

I do agree that, at times, it does feel DLC-ish, but it's one hell if a DLC at that.

The NCR were the original protagonists/antagonists, which didn't exist in Fallout 3 due to the fact that they have a whole country between their locations. Heck, at the time of Fallout 3, they were at war with CL/BoS (can't remember which) over Hoover Dam. The BoS are mainly a tech-gathering organisation, and aren't truly 'evil' - they simply don't care about what gets in the way, things that are unimportant, and things that don't care about them. There are supposedly remnants of the Enclave around supposedly, but they have been pounded into the ground in both F2 and F3, (if said endings are canon) so I doubt they'd be back for a third helping of death and failure.

The story is better than F3 - still not brilliant, but better than F3. There were few bombs that hit the west coast, therefor there is far more vegetation than in the east, and fewer radiation pools.

Oh man, this thread is hilarious.

Also, all the people calling the OP a troll are way too serious. Read over the post....and you can easily tell it's meant to be a joke.

A Layman troll have been kill fifty billion times.....

The lack of any follow-up or further engagement with the thread clearly indicates some pointless trolling. So damn, I feel very silly.

Move along people, nothing to see here...

Joke or not, its still a troll.

Not to go against your thoughts on it, but it is quite easy to see how this could be considered a "troll" because of the fact that the kid created his account today with a very obvious name and has only posted twice including his OP on here.

Jokes are normally started by forum members who at least have some experience and have a much less obvious name.

My guess is that he got bored on /v/ and decided to try his hand on the official forums.

So you just censor every true Fallout 3 fan that dares to say the truth? Stop being a mindless really devoted fan.

Play fallout 3's predecessors. dont make judgment on a game when you hasvnt played from all aspects.

Some people have no sense of humour. Funniest thread in a while.

Also: Don't flame, report!

Dude, I am a TRUE Fallout fan, you are not. Have you even been on the wiki to read up on lore or canon?!?!?

Idk, this seems a little odd to me...
Anyways, a player jumping into the series can't make an educated decision about a game incorporating legacy they don't realize exists. Stopping a thread of pure hate is less about censorship and more about remaining civil (as in following the rules of the forum).

Does it look like I care? As a big fan of Fallout, I have to point out the truth, no matter how bad it hurts. Reminds me of another thing that makes new vegas svcks, NO THREE DOG ON THE RADIO!!!



Antother thing that makes this game svcks as a Fallout. It fails to have the post war feel that Fallout 3 successfully captures. Why even call it a Fallout game it there wasn't nukes that hit it?



No, you are wrong. The Fallout 3 Brotherhood is the real one. New vegas is the one that is totally out of charater and got it all wrong.



I play games so that I can be a hero. It is not real life. A good story should have you win and save everyone in the end. Not some the world is not black and white rubbish. There isn't any depth that way.



I DON"T CARE about the games before Fallout 3. Before Fallout 3 NO ONE even knows what Fallout is and let alone plays it. I have taken a look at the screen shots of those games and they look HORRIBLE! Perhaps you basemant dwelling virgins like it. But real gamers don't.
