Yesterday's future that never came... until now.
faithful to the original in the most important respects.
this is a phenomenal game. think it is unjustly put down by some of the die hard fallout fans. eh. we guess they wanted another fallout 1 or 2... eh. it was good, but we've been there and done that already. playing top down and having to navigate a character whose identical to all the other NPCs just doesn't seem nearly as fun anymore.
know this game is compared frequently with oblivion. we concur, it's very oblivionesque. that said, it's an improvement. we were never one for wizards and elves.
haven't completed fallout 3 yet. still stalling to drag out our first play through. doing a lot of side quests and just general exploring. keep remaking our character every few hours. pretty fun.
it looks great. some NPCs sound too much alike like oblivion, but at least they don't all look the same. it is less noticeable. landscape is nice. know others have called it depressing and dreary... which is sort of the point... so yeah... those that make those comments intended to be critiques just don't get it.
music is good... what of it there is. we dig the enclave station playing john philip sousa, very reminiscent of the film "a boy and his dog." creepy.
do think they should have done more with the intro. vault life by itself would make a pretty cool game setting if done right.
we don't have any real complaints against the game. it's pretty damn good. ugh... the worst we can say about this game is that it has kept me up at all hours of the day and night playing it... and it doesn't appear to be letting up... still really haven't touched the main story quest yet either.
ugh... great game... no... sleep... ugh...
