My Fallout is better than your Fallout..

Fallout, at time of inception was..

"a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Role-playing_video_game http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_world http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game, developed and published by http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interplay_Entertainment in 1997. The game has a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-apocalyptic and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retro-futuristic setting, The game is considered to be the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiritual_successor to the 1988 role-playing video game http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wasteland_%28video_game%29. It is not an official sequel, although it was initially developed as one. Fallout was critically acclaimed and inspired a number of sequels and spin-off games, known collectively as the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallout_%28series%29."

For those that feel that the recent Fallouts are "inferior," what exactly keeps you playing Fo3 & Fo:NV and what are you looking for when you play?

Additionally, if you are a hater, why do you feel that a Fo4/ Fo:NV2 would be any different from the last two on the series?

I don't feel that the 3D ones are inferior. What keeps me playing them is my passion for video games. I would call myself ''gamer'' but I feel ashamed of this ''SoohardcoeGam3Rzzz'' generation, so I usually call myself ''Player'' in spanish. These games keep me doing 2 all-nighters a weekend, just because I love rising my character from nothing to glory, creating him, exploring, listening to in-game music, watching and hearing stories from another virtual world and just immerse at best as possible with my 7.1 Dolby Dig. Headset..

0:00 AM - Enjoy some Fallout..

6:00 AM - Smoke break and enjoy some Elder Scrolls.

And just keep playing carelessly. Of course these last weeks I can't do this because of exams. [censored], I should be studying right now. But when it's over I'm back with long playing sessions.

My desire for the future of the Fallout series is to Obsidian to write the story of the games, because Fallout 3 had no emotion. Damn, I felt more depressive with Max Payne 3.

There were times that I had felt the worst and most real of the pains (in real life), since then my experiences with gaming are way more immersive, for example; Boone, in his quest I could feel his pain, I was feeling it. I could hear it in his voice.

I'm not a hater. Real hating drives nowhere. And hating someone behind a screen for his gaming likes is pathetic.

EDIT: I WANT A LOT MORE UNDERGROUND BUNKERS IN THE NEXT GAMES :D .

Great answer, Jugador. I agree.

Edit: Fallout 3 made me feel emotion sometimes with the small stories you would hear or read on terminals. Finding out who "Moonbeam" was is a famous example.

Yeah, true, also, Uncle Leo's words were cool, discovering about the

was surprising too. But The Capital Wasteland made me feel that it was just hopeless. That's the point actually.

I don't find New Vegas to be Inferior at all. It has great writing and is alot like the orginals in terms of having alot of options for the player and there are alot more because the game is naturally alot bigger lol.

I also like Fallout Tactics and it isn't an RPG. I like it more than Fallout 3 because feel the story is better and there are still different outcomes depending on how one plays.

If the question is "do you feel the new games are inferior because they aren't turned based top down isometric?" I would say no they aren't.

For me it goes:

1st: Fallout

2nd: Fallout New Vegas

3rd: Fallout 2

4th: Fallout Tactics

5th: Fallout 3

6th: Censored due to Heresy!
