Ive done multiple playthroughs on fallout 3 and loved it. Fallout 3 will never get boring. Will Fallout New Vegas be the same or just a bore? Fallout 3 was developed in like 4 years or so and came out in October 2008. Fallout New Vegas will be released this fall and that will only be a span of 2 years. So the question is, will fallout new vegas be better or worse than fallout 3?

you wont know till ya play

There is honestly no way to tell until we get our hands on it, or you read a review of it.
I've already convinced myself that I'm going to love it, so...that's where I stand.

nobody can be sure yet

<.<

Psssssst just between me and you I don't trust obsidian with new vegas :ninja:

Well if Fallout 3 was awesome, then New Vegas won't dissapoint.

new vegas took a shorter time to create since it already had fallout 3 to go off of. what they did was basically make fallout 3 play and tweaked it and added new stuff to it. thats why they are useing the same generator for grafics which i dont mind cuz fallout 3 grafics are awsome. they spent the past 2 years addeding and making new stuff and hence fallout new vegas came which is going to be amazing

Yeah... Not sure if I can answer this definitively until I have worn out my copy of New Vegas :gun:

and plann an wearing this game out we shall :foodndrink:

What do you mean? Should I be worried?

no dont worry about it some people dislike obsidian and as soon as they heard they were making fallout new vegas they instanly though ohh well this game is going to be a screw up. trust me this game is going to be amazing

about the same
let be honest with are selfs
fallout NV is a expansion of fallout 3 with some extras
but fallout fans will not care cos its more fallout

It'll probably have a much better story. The gameplay might get a few improvements but I don't expect anything major. As for the bugs and glitches, it'll probably be about the same.

Actually, it's not.

ok thanks everybody yeah im hopin it will be better but you never know

I tend to have a lot of nostalgia towards older favorite games, so it has to really pwn for me to say it's "better" than Fallout 3.

im sure it will be its like fallout 3 but 2 years off fixing and adding to it

Yeah, it's not an expansion at all. An expansion expands the original game. It doesn't mean it's completely different except the engine is the same. By your reasoning, Mass Effect 2 would be an expansion of ME1. The Elder Scrolls Oblivion would be an expansion of morrowind. Heck, since it's all the same engine, Fallout would be an expansion of the Elder Scrolls.

ok its not an expansion
im say it like street fighter 4
Super street fighter 4 is street fighter 4 but with a new coat of paint

it fallout 3 with a new coat of paint
instead grey it now yellow
im not saying its going to be bad
but this is what Obsidian do they take other people game and improve them and they have said that them selfs

yes it not expansion only cos it would makesmore money a stand alone game
but it could of been done as a DLC

i think this game will surpast fallout 3 and this is in my opinion

Just because it's running on the same engine, doesn't mean it's Fallout 3. By that logic, Borderlands is Mass Effect with a new coat of paint.

I can't quite understand you sir.

hes just saying that obsidian makes games better for example they are making new vegas and new vegas is alot like fallout 3 but now everything has been upgraded and made better

I think Fallout New Vegas will have the potential to be a much better game. You pointed out the fact that Fallout 3 was made in 4 years while Fallout New Vegas has only had 2 years of production but you have to realize that the first Fallout game would of taken much longer to produce because it would of required Bethesda to do a lot more coding for the engine and physics and such. But now going into the production of Fallout New Vegas they have most of the coding done from the first game that they can use other then implementing some new stuff, i.e. better follower control via HUD menus. So all they really had to focus on was building the world and the story within it. And they have the advantage of going into Fallout New Vegas with much more experience and a lot of fan based feedback.

Oh, well isn't that a good thing. What's he complaining about?

He's probably complaining about the reputation that Obsidian have built up over the years which is to make sequels for abandoned franchises like NWN, KotOR, and now DS because they are allegedly not capable of developing their own games. The fact that their only IP to this day was AP which received very mixed reviews has only enhanced this reputation. But personally, I think that this is a bit harsh on them and they were very unlucky that their Aliens RPG was cancelled by Sega as that game had the potential to become the kind of breakthrough that they need.
