>implying we'll be able to handle it this time around

it's seriously not that hard just price it under $2 unless it's a full-fledged expansion and let the kids cry that they can't pay a couple of cents for some post-apocalyptic t&a

Like when fucking skyrim came out and people were like "Yeah man it's great but I wish I could undo perk points and respend them etc. etc."
"Yeah I just use the console to remove the perks and refund myself the points."
"......"

Remember all the rubble in FO3 and how you had to use the metro tunnels to navigate the city and how shitty that was?

Well Boston has a shitload of tunnels, too.

The old animations of people getting all chewed up and ripped to pieces or melting into a puddle were so much cooler.

Fallout 3/NV does have those crits for laser and plasma weapons where you see people get turned into plasma puddles or ash
Its p cool

Not as violent. People turn into glowing skeletons and then a pile of dust.

In Fallout 2 the skin would melt off the persons body into a big puddle leaving the skeleton standing there for a minute, which would then collapse.



Found it.

In Fallout 2 with melee and bloody mess you could punch holes in people or kick them so hard they just exploded into bloody splatter. It was fucking awesome. Haymaker'ing someone's head so hard it pops.

Too bad it's not PC exclusive or we could have a real improvement.

Besides the airship and some landmarks claiming it's Boston, it's Fallout 3: The Safe Remake until further notice.

Hell, it's not even trying to be subtle, it's just reproducing everything iconic about the previous games including Fallout 3's emergence from the vault but with less blinding light.

I just hope they don't touch the time when the bombs fell, at all beyond that trailer. The whispers and echoes of times long passed were fun to find on my own and let me dig as far as I wanted to, that trailer just shouts and yells all about it. Giving us a cinematic from when Mister President pressed the big red button to when little Timmy's mother curled around him to protect him in vain from the nuclear bomb isn't as much Fallout's style as finding two decaying skeletons on the side of the road, one adult, one child, both embraced outside of a rusted vault door, left to the mercy of time.

At least Fallout 3 and New Vegas subtly dealt with the backdrop of nuclear armageddon whilst keeping the here and now of the game the most important part. I can't say for the original Fallout games, I own them but even with fan made patches I couldn't get far through Fallout before finding bugs more game breaking than Bethesda have managed on launch and that coupled with its age made me stop, however it did feel like the here and now of get the vault some clean water and oh here's how life survived outside with a bunch of fun irradiated creatures was more important than the backdrop of "War, war never changes".
