Good day:
I played Fallout 3 long time ago, and I liked it. It had some issues (long underground corridors, weird karma system), but in general it was enjoyable. Somebody's selling me New. Vegas Ultimate edition for cheap. My question is: Should I play it? Is it better than FO3? Did the karma system improve? Are there spooky places like the dunwich building? Will it feel too old?
Thanks in advance
>>253572675
Fallout New Vegas is so much better than FO3 it's insane.I hope you're playing it on pc
>>253572675
Why even buy it if you don't know you want to play it?
Oh boy, here we go again.
FO3 has a better story and the capital wasteland is much more interesting to explore than Mojave, but in all other aspects NV is the superior game.
>>253572998
Care to elaborate? And BTW, it's on xbox
>>253573087
Well, it's like 15 bucks, and. I liked FO3. But sometimes, sequels tend to go wrong, that's why I'm asling.
>>253572675
Short answer, fuck you.
Long answer, FE:NV is better than FO3 for one reason: more guns. So, yes; buy it.
>>253573409
you can get that same edition from GameStop for like 12$
>>253573332
eh i like 3 more because as yopu said the mohaje is a fucking joke compared to the capitol wasteland but the story is pretty retarded when put under a microscope. anyway OP id go for it NV improved a lit of things on a technical level and theres a few cool locations, not nearly as many as 3 though. just think of it as dlc
>>253573332
> FO3 has a better story
Literally what
>>253573332
I like New Vegas' story better.
>>253573332
>FO3 has a better story
>>253573409
>>253573332
>FO3 has a better story
It doesn't. It just reuses parts from 1 & 2. The Brotherhood of Steel were never the good guys, they were only interested in technology and preserving it.
Anywho OP, Fallout New Vegas is great it's better than New Vegas exception in location and music. The Mojave wasteland can be a very dull place to explore and there's no spooky places.
>>253573704
>Literally what
prepping for unwarranted shitstorm in t-minus 3...
>>253573609
I see. I thought it was a good deal. I'll check there. Thanks.
>>253573474
>>253573625
>>253573332
Thanks. Looks like it's a no-brainer, then.
>>253573332

Hahaholy shit fucking kill yourself.

>>253573332
>FO3 has a better story
>>253573754
oh yeah, i sure do love playing linear fallout: pokemon black and white version
>>253573332
ugh
This is why we can never have a good Fallout thread anymore.
aah, another thread consisting of of 400 nv fag shitposts
OP, wait for the next steam sale and buy the all DLC version for less than five GBP.
>>253573332
>yet another end all, be all post that supposedly summarizes what the author believes to be facts about the series
FUCKING SHIT, POSTS LIKE THESE ONLY SERVE TO STIR UP SHIT YOU SHITHEAD.
We'll never have a good fallout thread with people like you in existence.
NV has better gameplay, more content and is actually an RPG, not a terrible fps pretending to be one.
>>253572675
it depends on how you enjoyed FO3
you are not going to have a ruined world like you had on FO3. NV has much better writing and RPG progression in general. World feels much more realWhat do they eat on FO3?
The karma system is more fucked than FO3, it's nigh impossible to be anything but very good, but it barely has any effect on anything and there's a new faction reputation system which is better and makes more of an impact.
It doesn't really have the same level of spooky as some of FO3 but there are some good areas, the entirety of dead money is just dripping with atmosphere
>>253572675
I hope you're not getting one of the console versions anon. It's gonna look and run pretty badly as well as be riddled with bugs and other glitches that endanger your game, just like all the other games published by Bethesda.
Also mods
>>253573959
>completed FO3 and FONV on dudebox 360

>>253573757
>>253573968
Well, that does it. More info is always good. I liked FO3, it looks like I'll be having a blast with new vegas. Thanks a lot for the info
>>253573968
>longer questline = better now?
>>253574372
Play with hardcore mode. Don't let the name discourage you, it doesn't really make the game any harder. Just adds some immersion.
>>253574479
>Questline
Did you fucking finish either game
I do prefer FO3's main quest over NV's though.
>>253574542
So, first time hardcore run? Is it available at the beginning? Is it more enjoyable or frustratingky harder?
>>253572675
>long underground corridors, weird karma system
You're in luck, New Vegas suffers from neither of those issues. Karma in particular has been overhauled to work with individual reputations amongst certain groups in the wasteland, so if you act like a dick to say one of the major raider tribes then you'll only be seen as a bad guy by them. It's also pretty hard to get your rep back up with that group, and having less than stellar reputation with a group can lock you out of certain questlines, areas, and npc conversations.

hmmmm
>>253574634
You get the option to turn it on at the start. It will help immerse you in the game and world. Like I said, It doesn't really make it any harder.

every single time FO3 is compared to New Vegas
>>253572675
>Should I play it?
Yes
>Is it better than FO3?
In my opinion it is
Did the karma system improve?
A lot
Are there spooky places like the dunwich building?
Depends on how spooked you get, you might get more spooked in the DLC areas though.
Will it feel too old?
If you were to go back to FO3 and play it, would you feel that it's too old?
>>253574372
As a lot of other people have already stated, Fallout New Vegas is a hell of a game. Yeah, it has it's share of bugs but most of the really bad ones have been patched. The dlc is pretty good too, especially old world blues. Coming from someone who put a couple hundred hours of time into Fallout 3, New Vegas is a clear improvement. So, long story short, you should absolutely play it.
>>253574479
NV has about the same length main quest as FO3
The difference is that NV has about 5 different main quests you can go on.
>>253574634
By the end of the game you won't notice it. If you're into immersion you might like it; but you're probably only gonna notice ammo weight, and if I wanted immersion I'd just install jsawyer.esp anyway.
>>253574634
It's available right after you're done with character creation.
It's basically a realism mod: You have to maintain your hunger, hydration, and sleep (it's not obsessive; you don't have to constantly worry about it), Companions die instead of getting knocked out, you have to have medical assistance/a doctor's bag to repair broken limbs, stimpaks heal quickly overtime instead of instantly, and, the most significant change, is that ammunition has weight.It's fun
>>253575030
>The difference is that NV has about 5 different main quests you can go on.
And none of them are as good as FO3's main quests.
>>253575216

AHAHAHAHAHHAHAA

OH FUCK THAT'S A GOOD ONE
>>253575282
It's still better than Fallout New Vegas'.
>Someone buried me alive, I'll go to New Vegas for revenge, [insert one of the generic alternate main quests here].
>>253575548
except the courier doesn't want revenge.
he wants the damn platinum chip.
>>253573968
A bunch of shit dead-end "choices" don't make the story better.
>>253575649
That makes it even worse then because all the Platinum Chip does is let you control the New Vegas Strip.
>>253575649
It's up to the player to interpret. The Courier might want revenge on Benny, or just want the Chip back, or they could simply want to complete their contract because if they don't the Mojave Express will send bounty hunters after them.

LET ME SUMMARIZE FALLOUT NEW VEGAS FOR YOU
YOU GET SHOT IN THE HEAD AND BURIED IN A SHALLOW GRAVE.
YOU GET BETTER.
YOU TAKE A MEANDERING U-TURN SO MURDERMOTHS DON'T RIP YOU APART.
YOU CONFRONT A GIANT COMPUTER MONITOR WHO WAS THE INDIRECT REASON FOR GETTING SHOT.
YOU CONFRONT A SMUG CUNT WHO IS THE DIRECT REASON FOR GETTING SHOT.
YOU CONFRONT CEASER.
YOU PICK A PLOT PATH AND DEAL WITH THE VARIOUS SUBPLOTS AS NECESSARY.
YOU FIGHT SOME NIGGAS ON A BRIDGE.
CUE MULTIPLE CHOICE ENDINGS.
>>253573332
>FO3 has a better story
oh boy, did you have to shitpost this early?
>>253575794

Did you finish the game?
>>253575794
You mean an army of heavily upgraded robots with which you can effectively rule the most profitable settlement on the West Coast, with access to an orbital satellite cannon, a hydro-electric plant and several Vaults-worth of technology.
Yup, worthless.
>>253575794
>all it does
>is let you control New Vegas
Disregarding how retarded your post sounds, the courier didn't know that, obviously, and was after the chip so he wouldn't be out of a job, because couriers are payed well.
>>253575936
I like how that picture pointed out how nonsensical the story in Fallout 3 is and all you're doing is summarizing the story of NV in all caps like that's supposed to make it look bad
>>253575282
>>253575936
and yet it makes more sense than FO3s storyline
stop defending this piece of shit, did you even played FO:NV?
>>253575282
>>253576260
I started tale of two wastelands yesterday and got that quest to kill 7 rolerats. The fire ant quest is literally going into a tunnel and walking forward.
I don't remember F3 being this bad.
>>253575936
Let me fix that for you
YOU GET SHOT IN THE HEAD
YOU GET BETTER
DO WHATEVER THE FUCK YOU LIKE 'TIL YOU COMPLETE ENOUGH CORE QUESTS FOR ANY FACTION, OR NOT, YOU CAN PRETTY MUCH DO WHAT YOU LIKE - YOU CAN JUST MURDER EVERYONE AND STILL COMPLETE THE GAME
FIGHT SOME NIGGAS ON A BRIDGE
MULTIPLE CHOICE ENDINGS, ALL OF WHICH STILL PROVOKE DEBATE AS TO WHICH IS THE 'BEST'
I just bought FO3 again (its been about four years) after playing through New Vegas a couple times, and I have to say, i'm having a much better time with FO3 then I ever did with NV.
The whole faction thing in NV is so tedious and boring.
To each his own.
>>253575936
>YOU TAKE A MEANDERING U-TURN SO MURDERMOTHS DON'T RIP YOU APART.
If you suck at video games.
>YOU CONFRONT A GIANT COMPUTER MONITOR WHO WAS THE INDIRECT REASON FOR GETTING SHOT.
Your point?
>YOU CONFRONT A SMUG CUNT WHO IS THE DIRECT REASON FOR GETTING SHOT.
Not really, the direct reason for being shot was that you had the chip.
>YOU CONFRONT CEASER.
Your point?
>YOU PICK A PLOT PATH AND DEAL WITH THE VARIOUS SUBPLOTS AS NECESSARY.
Way to summarize a large portion of the game.
>YOU FIGHT SOME NIGGAS ON A BRIDGE.
Not necessarily.

>>253575282

>>253576382
>>253576060
Why should I give a fuck about Mojave, it's boring as hell compared to the capital wasteland.
>>253576260
Too much of his explanations are "it happened just because" and fanwanking
I'll just accept the easier explanation that FO3's writers didn't know what they were doing
Fallout 3 is a journey, a journey of wonder and discover. Going to amazing locations, meeting fantastic characters.
Fallout New Vegas is a turd, a turd of boringness and fetchquests. Going to generic locations, meeting characters with no personality.

I've never played fallout, but I got the ultimate edition from the steam sale and tried it out a few days ago.
I couldn't believe it. I thought I was playing a SNES game at first. Like they took the guns straight from CS1.6 and reused it for this game. Even after downloading a bunch of graphic and retexture mods the game still looks like ass, just a slightly less blurry ass. The thing that annoys me the most is that the running speed is so goddamn slow for an open world game it's like nigga are you crawling? I cannot EVEN right now.
>>253576738

>>253576624
You mean, designing the game so there are genuine threats to the player at low levels, rather than just flooding the place with tons of low-level critters? Yup. Shit.
>>253576793
its ironic because Fallout 3 achieves the sense of danger way better then new vagas. at no point in new vagas did i ever feel in danger outside of a few small areas, and those areas are only dangerous because apparently shoehorning in 30 dangerous enemies in a small area. in 3 you can take 10 steps out of any safe settlement or the starting and get raped by giant mutated bears or a pack of raiders with rocket launchers and flamethrowers or any other overwhelming scenario at any level. new vagas is casual as fuck
>>253573757
>F3 has less atmosphere than NV
As boring as wandering through metro tunnels was it was a great contrast to wandering through the rest of the endless dead wasteland. In NV it's nothing but endless desert with no hope of wandering into anything interesting. Every bit of content is buried in the character depth and moral choices which is great but the actual gameplay suffers for it.
Did it make sense for a nuclear launcher to be available to the player or for all the cars to violently explode? No, was it more entertaining for it? Yes.

yeah it's aged like shit. You can tell new vegas is going to be one of those games /v/ hipsters will still say is good in 2024, when it's already outdated in 2014.

>WHY IS RICKY RICARDO ON A WIDE SCREEN TV GIVING ME COMMANDS? WHY IS ROME: TOTAL WAR OCCURRING IN POSTAPOCALYPITICA?
It's not a post apocalyptic game, no Fallout RPG ever has been.
>YES LET ME LIST EVERY SUBPLOT YOU HAVE TO DEAL WITH IN EVERY GROUPING YOU CAN CHOOSE I DON'T THINK YOU KNOW WHAT A SUMMARY IS
That's not how it works though, the Fallout 3 summary you were replying to listed EVERY possible element of the main plot.

That sky looks great. What mod is it?
>>253576624
No.
This picture is a fucking joke and I don't know why someone hasn't already made a response image to debunk it. I just got done playing through New Vegas again for the second time, and the only (ONLY) areas I was unable to visit and were beyond my abilities were around Sloan with all the roving deathclaw rape parties. That's IT. And I was killing cazadores (they supply you with antivenom for a fucking reason) and fire geckos at lvl 8 for fucks sake.
And people should shut the fuck up about New Vegas not being "open world". It's as open as Fallout always was. You're free to go wherever you want, whenever you want, but you have to deal with the consequences of that freedom. What, you want deathclaws to scale to your lvl 1 character? Go fuck yourselves.
It's one thing for me to hear someone say that they prefer Fallout 3 because of its atmosphere. That's fine. It's ignoring the game's established story to GIVE you that atmosphere but I'll accept that answer. But 99% of the arguments I hear Fallout 3 fans give in defense of the game are objectively false. Even if Fallout 3 was someone's first exposure to the series and they just don't care about "muh lore" isn't an excuse.
This isn't a bunch of autists getting upset over nothing and overanalyzing things. You take your favorite game, favorite book, movie, or tv show, and 10 years from now someone tries to follow up or reboot it. Then they gloss over the "general idea" of what it was and what made people like it, and they throw a half assed mess together with elements that make no sense or overtly contradict the established franchise. You'd be pissed too.
Bethesda is the Michael Fucking Bay of video games.
>>253577889
I like the Mojave but it feels way too small. I play without fast traveling and going from Novac to New Vegas takes like an hour or two in game and I feel like it should be longer.

>>253578456
On here? Maybe. But it isn't for the general Fallout community though. If you go anywhere on the internet and read discussions people have about this debate, shit like that is exactly what you'll find.
I heard someone say they liked Fallout 3 because, "every area was unique and had something special to do there but New Vegas was boring and everything was the same".
They either lie or make no goddamned sense. None.

Yeah, not really. Most of them are about which animes want to fuck which other animes. There are a few subplot-based endings, though.
>>253578376
New Vegas funnels you in one direction and if you choose to fight through those cazadores, deathclaws and fire geckos you're rewarded with fucking nothing.
The middle of the map is nothing but hills and giant rad scorps with nothing of note so once you've been around it you have no reason to ever go through it since you can fast travel from novac to goodsprings cemetary any way. The top right is full of cazadores and deathclaws but getting past them finds you at Bitter Springs where you can do some short and shitty quests for refugees. The top left is more cazadores and getting past them just gets you to Jacobstown an area you will never need to retread.
The reason F3 is a better game is if you see a petrol station in the distance you'd be able to visit it knowing that you'd be attacked by raiders there who you can dispatch by blowing up the parked cars, you'd then be able to go inside find a medical box, some ammo and possibly a skill book while in New Vegas you'd find the place empty, the cars non-destructible and the doors boarded up. It's more realistic but it's more boring.
Fallout 3 is a game first and a story second, New Vegas is a story first and a game second, it should have been a book not a game.
>>253572675
If you liked Fallout 3 you're probably gonna like New Vegas. I'd say that NV has worse exploration in that it lacks content that isn't already tied in with something major in the game. Additionally, the skill check system is kind of a joke because you can complete the entire game at a leisurely pace while passing every single skill check along the way on a single character.
Bigger fan of Fallout 3, but that is just me.

While a handful of areas in 3 were really really fucking good most of them totally sucked.

Wrong.
>you're rewarded with fucking nothing
You're rewarded with more quests, more character interaction, more plot, and more weapons and gear than anything Fallout 3 gives you for going off the trail. I didn't even get to Vegas for like 40 or 50 fucking hours. I didn't need to. I was busy doing quests and playing Fallout.
>cars don't blow up
No shit. They don't. Y'know what's really fucked up? Not only did they give off a small nuclear explosion in Fallout 3, they were gasoline powered. So not only does it not make sense, they don't line up with the game world's technology at the pre war stage.
>New Vegas is a story first and a game second
Except that not only did Vegas have more story and involved dialogue with even the most minor characters, not only did they manage to fit more gameplay in a world 30% smaller than Fallout 3's, but they expanded on the mechanics and added more features as well. Funnily enough, most of those features were implemented to make the game MORE like Fallout. Crazy
>Jacobstown (or any other area) you don't have to revisit
You mean, like most of the areas in Fallout 3?
This is seriously ridiculous and gets even more so every time I read one of these threads. There is NO reason why someone could legitimately say Fallout 3 was better, even subjectively, than New Vegas aside from mood and atmosphere. Both of which are already suspect as it is and force you to suspend disbelief or retcon elements of the established story.

I am doing quests I've been replaying New Vegas all week and while quests that let you stay inside like Beyond the Beef are great, any quest that involves walking across the desert is fucking awful.
You see this shit, this is fucking trash because instead of negotiating with characters or committing intrigue within the factions it relies on the game's world space to hold it up. Every single quest like this falls on its face as well because the Mojave is fucking boring.
Name a thing from each dlc, 3 and NV, that you liked
I'll start.

>>253580150
The whole purpose of that quest is to encourage the player to explore other parts of the game world that they may not have visited yet. And if you paid attention, each time you visited a station there was a new (or several) quest related to that area for you to complete and continue to flesh out the story of the NCR while building favor with them.
It's one of the longest quests in the game for that very reason. If you treated it like a messenger boy thing, you fucked up. That's on you, not the game.

>The whole thing really I enjoyed it as a little detour from the main gameplay. But to name one thing specifically? The Gauss rifle

It was ok, the best thing about Fallout 3, but still not amazing.

Irrelevant to the story.
>uhhh.... the alien repair things?
>he continues to support aggressive retcons.
>The villa. Holy shit what a fun level design. I wish the actual vegas was as fun.
The Villa was designed to test your character, the OC is designed to built it.
>Survivor logs
At least you mentioned something relevant.
>Cyberdog gun
Back to being a Fallout 3 kiddy?
>The simple fact that you could easily enter and exit it whenever you wanted. Made it feel more like part of the real game.
You do understand you're playing an RPG, and relevant things concern story, characters, choices etc.
>>253578980
>New Vegas funnels you in one direction and if you choose to fight through those cazadores, deathclaws and fire geckos you're rewarded with fucking nothing.
Well you able to explore the area's they "blocked off" which can usually garner good loot(be it a unique weapon like Chance's Knife which can be acquired without even fighting the Cazadores, or some fucking wonderglue and scrap electronics ah yeah), you gain experience points and I had fun exploring the areas.
>The middle of the map is nothing but hills and giant rad scorps with nothing of note
I though Black Mountain and Hidden Valley and other places where around the middle of the map, pretty noteworthy places there anon.
>you have no reason to ever go through it since you can fast travel from novac to goodsprings cemetary any way.
You can fast travel anywhere anon. That's not really a negative point if YOU don't want to explore, and the same applies to F3.
>area you will never need to retread.
Need and want see to be the big thing with you, huh? You'll want to get to the Ranger Station, Remnants Bunker and the Mine that are around that area, and once you finish finding them then of course you have no need to come back. Same with F3's locations.
>The reason F3 is a better game is if you see a petrol station in the distance you'd be able to visit it knowing that you'd be attacked by raiders there who you can dispatch by blowing up the parked cars, you'd then be able to go inside find a medical box, some ammo and possibly a skill book
Same can happen in New Vegas, of course minus the car part of course. Are you really basing why you think F3 is better around one scenario? Pretty weak points there, anon.

Honest Hearts was one of the best DLC's I've ever played for a game. Graham was a perfect example of how you make a badass character without all the bullshit edginess muddying up their believability. He was basically a decent guy, despite working with caesar, that just had a tendency to be more heavy handed with his methods while still having sound reasoning behind it. Even when he lost himself in the end, he was still an intelligent character and not beyond considering other means of action. And after I did, I was still left with the impression that he did it more as a favor to me or simply saw things from my perspective in that one moment. His personality didn't drastically do a sudden 180 just because I fed him a line. That's how you write a good character.
It also probably helped that they built up his backstory within the main game long before the DLC came out.
>>253581529
>>it's fucking nothing

Ingot collecting. F3 fans always go on about atmosphere, but I have to admit the Pitt did a nice job getting me immersed in the environment. The Pitt was like a Beta prototype for Dead Money, both take away your weapons and the Ingot yard was very similar to the Villa. Favorite F3 DLC.

Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 3 are both, essentially, the same game. There are some obvious differences in plot and setting that amounts to flavor text, but by and large if you liked Fallout 3 you'll like New Vegas. If you hated Fallout 3 you'll hate New Vegas.

Because the Fallout franchise means something to them and what Bethesda did was create Oblivion with guns?
Fallout 3 is just an older Skyrim, overhyped, bad shit made for the uneducated masses.
Fallout New Vegas has actually good writing and ironsights.
That doesn't make it good, but certainly a thousand times better than the shitpile that is 3

Well I guess it takes very little to count as meaningful content to someone like you.
>Why do NV fans take the game so goddamn seriously? It's not enough that they enjoy NV, no, it has to undoubtedly prove their intellectual superiority too.
Because a company purchased the franchise and ruined it forever with a terrible checklist sequel which was derivative of their other franchise, later gave a chance to the original developers to make a game, and apart from the terrible engine it was a great followup to the originals. But then, fans of the cashgrab start shitposting about how much better it is than the legitimate followup, made by the original devs. It's normal to want to tell people who are wrong, that they are wrong.
>>253582784
No, real Fallout fans were starved for another Fallout game and acknowledged that Obsidian tried their fucking hardest to salvage whatever they could from the mess Bethesda made and did something reasonably cool with it. It's not the Fallout we wanted, but it's a hell of a lot better than nothing.

Most of the non quest related areas I visited in New Vegas were way more interesting and had cooler stuff in them than I saw in F3. Played both games multiple times.
Some of it was even deceptively good. Like the Broc Flower Cave you can end up finding and there's a unique varmint rifle inside. I thought it was garbage and never used it my first run only to find out it's a fucking amazing weapon for stealth kills. A lot of the weapons in NV were like that. Everything sorta had a unique flair to it that you could use to your advantage. Fallout 3 had that to some extent, but most of the weps were just upgrades of other weaker varieties.

Why do you use may mays to get your point across. The Fallout fanbase is far from a secret club, Bethesda did not make a game for the Fallout fanbase though.
>You should stop defining your entire identity by a single hobby, you probably won't get so incensed over things that aren't really such a big deal.

>>253583328

>>253583290
Yeah, I don't think there's any denying that NV has way more items and they are all better than what you get in F3.
I think the thing that F3 has that NV doesn't is it has stories at locations. Little messages left from characters long dead, emails between employees, a deliberate placement and arrangement of items, stuff like that.
I always found it a little amusing that a lot of people thought the survivalist story from the NV DLC was brilliant and the best thing about it when F3 is chock full of that sort of stuff and it's just completely dismissed.

>>253583693
>I think the thing that F3 has that NV doesn't is it has stories at locations. Little messages left from characters long dead, emails between employees, a deliberate placement and arrangement of items, stuff like that.
NV had more of this though.
>>253583241
You can't use "opinions" to excuse factual inaccuracies and contradictory elements. It's not a matter of "muh dad" story being bad or not. It's that even if you like that story, it's still told in an objectively poor way.
I don't know why anyone would honestly prefer F3's story regardless. Nobody seems to explain that. I mean, "go get the water chip" or "go find the geck" wasn't any prize winner either... but c'mon. Let's at least try a little harder.
As someone who has enjoyed playing FO1, 2, 3, and NV, (I know there was another one, can't remember the name, and I did like 2 more than 1) i'd like for everyone to get the fuck over their opinions and quit trying to argue which game is better. This shit is almost worse than consolewarfaggotry.
You like what you like, and someone else doesn't? Who cares, it doesn't hinder your ability to keep enjoying the game. Atleast I hope not. Now have a good day, faggots.
I just wish I could target peoples groins again with VATS.

Because, you tard, it's not about people liking F3 more than NV. It's that they literally do not give any valid reasons. A lot of it is just straight up lies that could be proven wrong with the tiniest bit of research.
If someone said they liked F3 because they "liked how it looked" or "liked the mood better" or even "liked the story more" it wouldn't be an issue. It's opinion. It's fucking dumb, but it's their opinion. When people straight up get facts wrong, there's a problem.

Well, you'll be speaking their language. That helps.

Question: Why do they use the GECK, which could restore the wasteland, to merely filter water?
>>253584505
You seem to be able to read my words without any hindrance, either.
>>253584585
Because logic is Bethesda's cryptonite
>>253584371
We are having great discussion, points are being made, opinions refuted and evidence is posted to back up those opinions.
Meanwhile on Reddit,
"Durr I like F3"
"Hurr this is NV subreddit go to F3 subreddit to talk about it"
"Murr I like F3"
"Burr I agree you get upboats"

>>A lot of it is just straight up lies that could be proven wrong with the tiniest bit of research.
You know what? Both sides are completely full of shit in this debate. I remember in a thread a while ago some retard was trying to prove that the Mojave was bigger than the Capital Wasteland by counting the fucking grid lines on the overhead map in the pipboy. According to him those lines match up to the cells. If he had actually verified this instead of just deciding it's a fact he would have discovered it's not even remotely true.
>If someone said they liked F3 because they "liked how it looked" or "liked the mood better" or even "liked the story more" it wouldn't be an issue.
This is crap.
Any one claims that's why they like F3 and they are just told "Your opinion is wrong, you fucking retard."

Stop shitposting Bethdone.

>which could restore the wasteland,
Only a section of it.
The idea is the create a chokepoint to filter the incoming water of pollutants, radioactive or otherwise, the comes upstream from the ocean.
They could either chose some remote location to launch some sort of town, or they could aim higher and get an entire river eventually cleaned up, which lets for better water for everyone along the river.

Baiting Obsidian fanboys is too easy.
>>253584585
The full extent of the GECK's abilities has always been wishy washy at best, it isn't even an issue of certain people have skills that can put it to use in different ways just hand it to some faggot and boom vault city out of nowhere.

I love cherry icecream!

Do you visit there often?

>Both sides are full of shit
No, they really aren't. Y'know why? Because you're using an example of an argument never made in this thread to make your case. You're the one full of shit right now.

GECK is just a Macguffin. It suits whatever you want in the story.

No one needs that water, the river will clean itself over time, 200 years is more than enough, a GECK isn't a water filter.

Not according to Fallout logic.
And I think it's mentioned at some point, too. Water near the river got hit with something nasty, as even the fish are too toxic to eat.
>>253584908
No, why anyone would visit a site that compartmentalises all subjects so everything becomes as circle jerky and cloistered as /vg/ is beyond me.
>>253584943
Bethesda, go away.
>>253584917
Have you actually read this thread?
>>253584917
Okay, how about the idiot claiming that in F3 locations never have anything of value at them but in NV they do? That's something from this thread.
I quick browse through the wiki will show that it's the reverse that is more true.
>>253585085
>Not according to Fallout logic.
In Fallout 1, the vault needed water, because they had a static supply, not a moving one. Maybe play the games next time, don't just parrot what you read on reddit.
>>253585159
>implying F3 locations have anything of value
Yeah, if you like eating shit.
>>253585159
>some semi-random loot is content of value
Go away Bethdrone.
>>253585210
I suggest you browse through the various locations in both games on the wiki and look at which game has more items of note at them.
But you are just going to claim you don't need to because you "already know", right?
>>253585103
Compared to here?

They are both great games with flaws.
