And on the surface this is true; they're both first person open world RPGs set in the fallout universe, And they both use the same engine and even assets But to me, the difference between the two is like comparing the film Chinatown to Transformers 3 These two games are completely separated in terms of quality and world building. Something that is overlooked by Joey who doesn't care about any of that boring STORY stuff, what is this, a book? He just wants to kill people and watch explosions. So let's explain to Joey how these games differ: umbled upon and could be ignored/picked up on a whim, the world felt like a theme park that conveniently revolved around the player t bla stood some pretty fundamental points about the fallout universe. (An example off the top of my head: what the f--- is jet, a drug produced exclusively by a single family in post-war New Reno, doing on the east coast stacked behind pharmacy counters and vaults like it's been there since before the war?) stocratic Teutonic order that killed people and robbed Let's start with the binary morality. In Fallout 3 there were 2 factions with any significance to the world, "the bad guys" and "the good guys "(When in the original games the brotherhood of steel were them of any tech they had just so they could hoard it for themselves. In the eyes of the Brotherhood. you would be vaporized on sight if you carried even a laser pointer.) In New Vegas however, there are over 20 factions(21 if you count yourself/anarchy ending) each as morally ambiguous as the last. Even Ceasars legion motives start to become very u standable "evil" when vou talk face to face with Ceasar. In ing, because there are no "g Next, I want to point out the world building("What do they eat?". In Fallout 3, all goods and services(including food) were all somehow scavenged even after 200 years and the few post war goods/services that did exist seemed to be provided by unenforced monopolies somehow, because I guess no one else thought to enter a nearly uncontested market. New Vegas on the other hand creates a more believable word with competing farms, factories and firms that produce these goods/services and all have competitors. It even portrays Cronyism within the New Vegas strip when you ask one girl why her prices are so high Even down to the most basic, generic enemies. NV had more depth. Where in fallout 3 you had "raiders" randomly sprinkled around, NV had 4 raider clans all fighting for control of different areas all with different stories and motives that you can involve yourself in and determine the outcome But the absolute final nail in the coffin for me was how Bethesda decided t tcon the original games with the recent announcement of 4 and have stated the original fallout bible by Avellone is no longer canon(including NV it seems, they've been acting like it s in terms of lore. And that's fine by me, if they want to throw the original fans to the side nder to xbox kiddies that think explosions are funny, then I'm just going to pretend NV was the last fallout game and the t are just non-canon spin offs 6675484 >-8675575 24075889 10/24/15 (Sat) 22:09:23 ID: 8424cf No 25 KB, 963x1 076240 (You) (OP) [cont.] spectful, and me t person game(l didn't mind this change at all). It ditched the original fans in favor of the unwashed masses. Fallout 3 assumes evil characters aren't actually committed to role playing evil, they just use "evil" as a funnel for xbox kiddies that just want to run around and kill whatever, whenever with little repercussions for their actions so they can move onto the next binary shallow choice with no second gue You can tell the divergence between the two audiences involve vourself in each of the characters rstand what caused the cause of the cause of that situation. Critical thought had to be put into urve towards New Ve ion, share their concern questions. You had to involve yourself in the internal politics and economics of that situation manvimore haracter in NV can be killed per tone-neutral d al to the same lowe we now get Fallout 4 WI ar numeric value inc oday for fallout fans. And this is becomin a major problem in mmon denominator rather than pp eal to their own little market We will never get another true fallout game.
