I wanna join in too!
Ahem...
No!
And to explain why I don't want it.
They can't get it right.
They will either add or remove or tweak quests/dialogue/NPC's/locations/weapons/sounds/lands/architecture/items/balance/SPECIAL/skills et cetera.
And they won't be able to get the measurements right for places either, might be small things like "this wall should be a bit higher" or "This chair should be a darker brown" but all of it will add up to feel incredibly fake.
They'll also try to make if FPP and that just isn't possible.
Klamath for example is an open town with no loading zones (Like The Strip, it was suppose to be open but look at how that ended up, we got three [censored] gates until we get to V21... It does have it's own kind of loading zones but it's an "open" loading zone placed as a grid loading zones.) so the town would have to be "changed" and given walls and loading zones and closed buildings and crap and just wouldn't feel the same at all.
And here's a great example, New Reno, look at how many NPC's walk around on the streets, it can't be done without changing the amount of NPC's or giving it loading zones.
Then we have NPC animation, the Mom critter from The Den is a female which places her hand on her hip and sways the other one out to the side when she walks.
It's entirely possible to recreate Mom's critter into a 3-D model but the animation? Will it still be present?
I doubt it.
Tons of little and big changes will be made and it will no longer be Fallout 2.
Original games should be left alone all together. (Only thing I would like for older games is to find a way to port them to newer consoles without changing any of the games content.)
So no, it won't be the same game anymore and it would be an abomination in the Fallout series, it would even be worse than F:BOS.
