I guess someone picked the Bloody Mess Perk.

---------------------

We will get quite a bit more information. I do not know if I will look too much into it since I prefer to not to have too much information before I get the game since that can spoil the first playthrough.

They are smart. They make game go.

Im honestly not worried about gear degradation, in Fallout it has a thematic place, but the in Elder scrolls franchise its not, so its absence is just shaving of busy work few gonna miss.

I expect Beth to make a fancy presentation, which is to say that I don't expect anything good or bad. I am more interested in stuff we will get after E3, which will have more substance.

Not holding my breath. I will say that this presentation will probably be the deciding factor on whether or not I buy 4. We can only hope that Bethesda learned something from New Vegas.

I voted for the neutral option. I know the game will be epic, but some of the cringe-worthy writing (if those "leaks" turn out tone true) has me really concerned for the way the story will play out. We'll see. It should be exciting either way.

It's Fallout and I will proudly say I'm a Fallout really devoted fan.

It could be a mobile F2P zombie game with survival elements and a nonsensical crafting system, and I would still love it.

Fallout is the only game series I love to that degree.

I chose the bottom choice since I am excited but I don't have any expectations, good or bad. Im just waiting to see what they actually show of the game before I form any opinion or expectation of what the game is going to be like. I've gotten my expectations too high in the past and it made it hard for me to fully enjoy games like oblivion for a while.

I went with option number 3, I expect this to be solid but nothing that'll make your jaw dropped. I'd love to be wrong though.

I was about to vote for the second one but realized I'd be lying, so I switched to the first. Whatever it is, I know I'm going to have a ton of fun with it.

If that happens, it will be awesome.

There better be Tunnel Snakes.

Because I'm a butthole, I kind of wish it will be super dumbed down, so even those who were fine with Skyrim as it was, will be counted among those "nostalgic" "old school" "hardcoe" whiners. Those who are never satisfied with newer games. Those who are just mad because their favorite series has become mainstream.

"Games evolve. Perks are a forgotten relic from the past. They didn't really add anything to the game, just frustration and confusion. This is 2015, not 2011."

Like I said, I'm a butthole. But really, I'll just wait until the game has been out for a few months, and check out the opinions of few "trusted" members on this forum. Doesn't matter how well it's introduced in E3. If Fallout 4 turns out to be a great game, it will be a very pleasant suprise.

I don't think that's so dikeish as you think. I mean, there is some degree of logic to "I hope it's so bad and such a trainwreck that it absolutely forces them to stop going down the path they're going and go back to some of the older design choices," so it's not just pure spite or Schadenfreude. Plus I doubt you really want that to happen; that to me seems more like an "I just want a good game but I fear it won't happen until there's a failure to learn from first."

Expecting a disaster. Hoping for something at least passable.

That's an accurate translation. I hope this "dumbing down" discussion regarding Skyrim has given Bethesda some motivation to make an improved game. The next best situation for me is what you describe, a trainwreck to get them thinking about what kind of games they should be doing.

Most likely situation is that the game will be similar to Skyrim, with most fans satisfied. I'll stop "whining" about it and simply won't be buying the game, instead I'll be relying on other games to do what Bethesda wouldn't/couldn't do.

I'm just hoping for more footage, some gameplay, and more info. I hope that Todd or some one from BGS does some interviews answering a lot of questions.

Also, I hope there is at least some mention of an upcoming Elder Scrolls VI being in the works.

Anyway, I have low expectations.

I'm a mix of option 2 and 4, I think it will be a solid game and I'm excited for it.But I also expect to be dissapointed by Bethesda's derisory writing.

Im excited to see what they have in store for us, as I get older I seem to be narrowing down the games I get excited for. For me its good be excited about a game again and I think everybody should have that joy of excitement about something (doesn't have to be this).

The real question not what you expect, the real question how you react once they are done showing all there is to show. Sometimes people just cant be pleased and others can be pleased by anything. I feel its important to keep an open mind and think subjectively about what you are shown. Of course you should compare what you are given to what you want to be given, but at the end of the day its still just a game meant to make people enjoy themselves.

"Here are the outside of the dungeons we won't show you because they'll be copy & pasted even this gen, too".

I have very low expectations based on the little things we've seen thusfar. I'm not holding my breath.

I wont be anymore excited than when the last two games were released.

I'm going to enjoy eating my popcorn while I watch it crash & burn. It is better for the entire game to be scrap-able so it may be properly modified into a real Fallout game. The harder its fall the better I can fix what I see wrong; as the best errors are the ones that are blatant idiocy similar to Fallout 3's errors. Makes it easier to pick up on what to prioritize first. I simply hope I don't need to work on the basic movements & weapon handling again. Hard to fit my nice taste for combat.

Time to get out the snacks & beer. This will be a fun show.

Haha, in the end, it's not going to matter to Bethesda. They're going to enjoy the sales of the game. They hyped Skyrim's 11-11-11 so bad and did not care for QA in the least. I mean, any release date they give, that's concrete for sure.

Should be great. Adam Sessler and Morgan Webb are hosting pre and post show. Sure they will be asking all sorts of questions. I can't wait.
