if it would of happened before the game was released or just after it was released then it would of been fine, but it's to late to create anything. Just be glad we get the DLC's

Okay, so Yes Man was a bit too vague of an idea to do in an acceptable quality, i admit.

Once again, it CANT be done. There are too many ending variations for each quest and location to take into consideration, if they want to show a credulous gameworld after ending.

Not technically true. But effectively true, nonetheless. Josh, the guy that uses big words and sometimes confuses me, likes to use the word "scope". Now I don't think he's talking about mouthwash here, but what he means is that the project "scope" had to meet certain criteria. Budget, deadlines, engine limitations, etc. They could have made the game support after main quest play with all the permutations of the decisions you make in a playthrough, the engine could handle it, all it would take is a huge whopping metric ton of writing and scripting. Therein lies the problem with the scope of their project. They neither had the time nor the rescources to make such extra content available given the constraints of their contract with Bethesda. It would have been a huge undertaking, as almost all areas would neccessitate repopulating and the prerequesite rewriting and scripting to support every little change you made. I have always wondered if they considered making the 4 DLCs into an after dam battle ending, one for each main faction? I'm not too sure this is what I would want in DLC, but it certainly could have been one of the possibilities proposed. Just think of it in these terms: It took them 14 months to build the world, populate it and write all the story. How long would it take them to completely redo the world 4 more times?

-Gunny out.

Thanks guys, now I realize that would be very dificult to make possible to continue the game because we have 4 endings, anyway thanks and I have to say Great Work Devs the fallout new vegas was very nice game.

No problem, sorry about some of the rudeness you've encountered, we're really a nice bunch. :P Usually. :rofl:

So I was wondering why we cant continue to play the side quests after we finish the story because it would be so much better, or
are you guys going to Implement this option in a DLC? because fallout 3 was possible to continue the game
if you had Brotherhood of steel.

Because its better to have it end while you still want to play, than the alternative ~to let you play out insignificant (and perhaps contradictory) tangents until you get bored with it and quit.

All Fallout games are designed to have a rather complex and satisfying end that reflects the character's actions and decisions during the game. Bethesda broke that with 'Broken Steel'; and have seemingly decided to further break this founding premise in future installments. :sadvaultboy:
*So Todd Howard seemingly implied when he said in a recent interview ("We wont do that again").
