Fallout 3 & Fallout New Vegas Directors Cut editions?

Post » Tue Jun 23, 2015 6:16 pm

Wouldn't it be nice if Bethesda released directors cut editions of Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas?

Convert both games to the new updated engine used for Fallout 4. Then let respective team, Bethesda and Obsidian, do directors cut editions of their respective games for the new creation engine used in Fallout 4.

We know that Fallout 3 works really bad with steam. With a directors cut edition it would be fully integrated aswell as a new fresh edition available for the new generation of consoles.

Also, Fallout New Vegas had a lot of features cut due to time restrictions during development. If Obsidian could return and do a polished directors cut edition for the new engine that game would become trully awesome.

What needs to be done?

*Move both Fallout 3 and New Vegas to the new creation engine used for Fallout 4

*Add the new weapons custumization system and other neat features of Fallout 4 to the older games

*Let the teams behind Fo3 and FoNV do polished versions of their old games for the new Directors Cut editions

Success!

What do you think?

Sooooo, basically take both teams off the games they're making now and put them on remaking old games, that everyone's played?

At best the only way you'll see the older games on the new consoles is if they are added to the backwards comparable lists. And they'll be straight emulations, just ports. No new features or updates.

And converting to the engine is not that easy. Every asset would need to be reworked.

Bethesda have never wasted time and money on remaking games before, why would they start now?

And how does Fallout 3 not work well with Steam? I have it on Steam and it's fine.

edit:Also, this isn't a new idea.

No that's just dumb...

To many idiots willing to the throw money on remastered games to just play the same game over...*face palms*.

Alternatively, let Obsidian release an expansion pack for FNV that is set in Legion's area so we can finally get some Legion content.

Or a new game entirely?

I'd rather more new content than just see previous content look prettier.
