ending the game

Post » Thu Jun 24, 2010 9:51 pm

why do people assume that your choices can never make a difference in a game if it doesnt end?

Do you really want an empty, shallow game where you decisions affect nothing? Or would you rather have a Fallout 1 and 2 ending, where you see the consequences of your actions?


i dont understand that the only way you can see the consequences of your actions is if the game ends. explain?

Because.

Will we be able to keep playing once we beat the game with this one?

JS: This is something we really wanted to do, but ultimately we realized that supporting post-endgame content would jeopardize the quality of the ending, which we wanted to tell the definitive stories for all of our major factions, locations and characters. Instead, after the credits roll the game will prompt you to reload a save created just before the endgame sequence, allowing players to go back and complete any quests they may have missed. Additionally, we make it very clear when you're about to reach the end of the main plot, so it shouldn't come across as a surprise.

:cryvaultboy:
i agree, this is what i'm talking about on the other thread, a lot of people seem to think that unless the game ends somehow that wrecks everything, all this business about everything having to change dramatically and needing to see it in some slideshow at the end of the game. so i agree with you 100% on this. :celebration:

It would probably be best to use this thread.
