There is no a option where Obdsidian, Behtesda and InXile should do the game together

Poll is still racist

I still havent played more than a few hours into New vegas and the only difference i saw is that the game feels more like a bioware game in structure.
Fallout 3 had a more open structure, but i absolutely loved it. From the beggining at the vault to the abandoned vaults towards the end of the story mode to the special places like Oasis to all the DLC in particular Mothership Zeta. If it means more of that then im all up for bethesda making it. But, since i havent played through new vegas yet im not voting on the poll since i might always change my mind. But if bethesda makes it, it will be by no means a bad thing.

What 70% would jumpt on the turn based isometric band wagon when crap low intelligence games like cod run rampant.

I never said that Fallout 4, if Obsidian made it, would be isometric turn-based.
I said that it'd be more interesting to see their take on it, it "might" be isometric turn-based or it might be kinda like Dragon Age: Origins or something else completely.
Point is that just cause it isn't a big sandbox map but a map node system or something else doesn't mean that everyone will shun the game.
Some FO3 fans will be turned off, sure, but at the same time others might/will take interest in it.

So just cause it loses it's sandbox gameplay doesn't mean that the game will be a complete fail.
And if the gameplay is changed to something other than FPS it doesn't mean that the game will fail either.

In a perfect world, we would have both TB-Iso RPG and RT-FPP Sandbox RPS games to suit both sides.

I actually want it to be Bethesda, they're better at making open worlds than Obsidian and if they tweak their story telling a little bit Fallout 4 will be every bit as good as anything Obsidian can do.

I'm still amazed over the mod for Fallout 3 which made it turnbased: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFABEnF7b6I
Seriously, it is freaking possible to make Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 3 turn-based!
Sure it's a very very crude beta but it's still, [censored], possible!
So [censored] do it Bethesda!!
You're professional game developers!
If anyone can make a balanced and polished optional Turn-Based mode it would be a game studio!
And look! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFABEnF7b6I
LOOK! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFABEnF7b6I
A freaking modder was able to make one!
So why not spend the time to make one? An optional TB mode?
You'd knock two birds with one stone, the FPS crowd get theirs and the TB crowd gets theirs.

So.
Yeah.

Obsidian all the way.

As for the style... I honestly think in the alternative universe where Interplay still really is the real Interplay (and not the Intercorpse we know now) and Fallout was not developed until today then I honestly think it would look and play like Fallout 3.

Obsidian. It'd be interesting to see what they'd do unshackled with their own choice of engine, format, etc.

Personally, gameplay-wise, I don't want Fallout to go back to iso or turn-based (at least fully, turn-based as an option), but to stick to its roots more in other areas. I'd like to see a Fallout game with extreme customization and character skill > player skill, but without the tediousness that TB can bring and with the more personal and detailed experience that 1st/3rd person can give.

I think "both" would probably be the most unrealistic option of all three-I'm figuring they either wouldn't do it, or it wouldn't turn out as swell as we think. It's not that I haven't fancied the idea before myself, but I just am guessing that the systems of the two companies would clash and fail to work out.

I personally prefer Obsidian out of the two, their writing is so much amazingly better, and that's more important to me than a sandbox world or supposedly funny, gory scenes. Far more so. Just as it is more important, to me, than graphics. I've had my fair share of googling at pretty graphics, but it's not my priority. More so, I have a fear(based on their history, and the fact none of them come from or have researched as much as they should have into the Fallout series) that they will never reach the skill of writing and understanding of the Fallout world that Obsidian has, or originality for that matter. While they might make an acceptable Fallout 4, I've begun to doubt that they'll make an awesome Fallout 4 in comparison to Obsidian's work.

However, as others have said, Bethesda will have a 99.99%(with a repeating mark on that last sign) chance of likelihood in doing Fallout 4, if they aren't developing it already. I could only hope I'm wrong that they haven't picked up the traits they need to, or that they'll let Obsidian continue to work on future Fallout games. Maybe not the new "main series," but a side series or something of the like. Even that would be fine. Or, better, both.

Bethesda, Obsidian made a hapf assed political drama not a retro nuclear age post nuclear rpg. I want Bethesda to take another swing at it, maybe makibg dinosaurs, Beth fans, and just F3 fans (such as myself) happy.

Poll is racist! How about a mixed effort option?

I don't like Bethesda in Fallout, but I am forced to compromise, as many like Bethesda. Personally, I love the Elder Scrolls series, but they ruined Fallout. They have showed that they have NO CLUE on how to make a good Fallout game.

I would like Bethesda and Obsidian to work together to make a perfect Fallout game, the best of both worlds.

It was a better RPG, at least we arent the Jack Of Trades like in Fallout 3,

but they ruined Fallout. They have showed that they have NO CLUE on how to make a good Fallout game.

I still waiting for the "both" options,

Not likely, Bethesda needs to do more than "tweak their story telling a little bit" to even come close to reaching http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLAXvh__bUM.

It is possible, they are professionals, the least they could do is pay homage to the form of the originals and gives us an optional mode like that, at the very least.

Isn't that what VATS was? VATS was no substitute for a real turn based mode, but it was most certainly Bethesda paying homage to Fallout's history as a turn based RPG series.

VATS was a very poor substitute, it a homage to the aimed shots in the originals, not the turn based form of the originals. Look at that video Gab linked, THAT is what is needed to truly pay due to the originals, and it would just be an option for fans of the older RPG system, that's all we ask, just an optional game mode like that, a modder did that, they, professional game designers, could do it very easily.

I never claimed VATS was a good substitute; however Bethesda did say that VATS was meant to be homage to the series' former turn based gameplay mechanics. It's the thought that counts, Bethesda didn't have to include VATS.

Would a full blown turn based mode be nice? Sure, but only if there's an isometric camera as well, and only if Bethesda toned down the amount of combat. I wouldn't want to play Fallout 3 with turn based mechanics, there was just way too much filler combat in that game.

Bethesda .......... their game was much more entertaining overall.

It think they should keep Obsidian making fo as well. This way more ground will get covered.
