Nick Valentine is Pero.png

I just realised that Nick Valentine from Fallout 4 is a reference to Pero from Metropolis. They look similar, dress the same, have the same job, and also have the same looking injuries to boot.

So deep animu reference. Thank you Todd you absolute genius.

Rewatched it recently, so fucking good. I don't think I've seen a denser cyberpunk city in any medium.

right? How about that music? How about that actually strong emotions that were conveyed so well through everyone. The love shit was actually good rather than same old same old too.

I hate weeb shit too but this doesn't feel like weeb shit which was a good thing. It's one of those actually good japanese made cartoons like Berserk.

It's a matter of the time that is available to do stuff for a scene, given the same amount of time for a scene a background artist may only need to do a single static image while an animator may need to produce many images.

So the background artist has the time to make a beautiful detailed background while the animator doesn't the time to make characters look like the bottom left of >>319642578.

And the character from Metropolis is a copy of a character from an Isaac Asimov novel.
I don't even like Fallout 4 but what's your point?
>>
>>319642578
Nick Valentine is the best companion because his initials are NV and that's the best fallout game.

whats the problem?

that looks like the metropolis guy

>>319650504
i see what you mean. have you noticed how fucking fluid the animation is in metropolis? it's like they actually drew every single frame instead of smudging effects etc
>>
>>319652118
nv was so fucking good
>>
>>319652652
You will never see its like again. Bethesda caused shit for Obsidian last time.

>>319642706
It's not "terrible crap," it's just bad at being Fallout. It's a fantastically fun open world shooter though.
I'm disappointed in the change of direction too but it's one of the only new games that has held my attention.
>>
>>319642578

>I can't stop waaaaaaanting youuuuu.

Chills every fucking time I remember that sequence.
>>
>>319653586
what do you mean? what happened? NV Was so incredible, I thought it wouldnt be as good as 3 but it was so much better.
>>
>>319653869
im disappointed in the variety, there's only a very small handful of enemies which are recycled in different colours and clothes. Why can't we have new enemies?
>>
>>319651114

Is that anime Amy good?

>>319651114
>swapping the girl's hair color with the dress color
Cheeky.
>>
>>319654187
Eh, 7/10 maybe better.
>>
>>319654029
Bethesda caused shit for obsidian. They had to release the game early, almost weren't paid, and it's clear they'll never get a chance to make another fallout game again.

That's why Fallout 4 has NONE of the NV items or references. Same with Fallout Shelter.
>>
>>319654193
I think they actually wanted to make a movie for the anime, or like a western adaptation of the property.

Disney thought that shit was gay and just wholesale had them make a western movie.

>>319654187
Dated.
It's aged the same way the original gundam has, with a weaker story and characters to boot.

If you like anime from the period it's decent.
>>
>>319654369
Items? Remind me like what? Also why would bethesda do that? Why did bethesda fuck obsidian over so hard? Fallout NV was clearly amazing and would be incredible to work from, so what went wrong?
>>
>>319647032
lion king is a rip off
>>
>>319654369
Bethesda is a bunch of lazy salty cunts
>>
>>319654112
dont forget that every settler that turns up is one of three people
>>
>>319654557
Bethesda being corporate dickheads I guess.
>>
>>319654369
I though the DC security saying "put two on their head and they stay dead" was a reference to NV
>>
>>319654746
i thought they were better than this, what happened to bethesda..

Sorry, it has been established that something that resembles something else is a rip-off.

I doubt it, i don't think Todd is the kinda guy that watches movies that don't involve explosions. He makes the games as if hes making games hes playing. judging by the writing and character development in 3 and 4, I doubt he'd be able to last 5 minutes watching a silent film from the 1920s.
>>
>>319642578
I haven't played Fallout 4, but the whole synth detective thing sounds like something out of I, Robot or The Caves of Steel

i.e very Asimov-esque
>>
>>319652308
The anime is a fucking piece of shit, fag
>>
I thought it was a reference to Humphrey Bogart.
>>
>>319660804
the anime is good it made me want to read the manga, watching the anime you're like fuaaaaaaaark then looking back on the anime the animes meh. However the outtakes in the English version are hilarious.

You know there are other Metropolis movies right? You can clearly see in the picture in OP that it's not the metropolis from the 1920s.

This
Why do you fags automatically jump to weeb trash instead of actually culturally significant works? That anime trash you're talking about probably copied Casa Blanca.
>>
>>319660680
Why do people act like Todd makes these games all by himself?
>>
>>319660778
Fallout 4 contains about the same amount of Asimov as the I, Robot movie which is to say none at all.

they've even got the same injuries

It's not a "reference" it's "stolen".

The same way it steals from Blade Runner.

No they don't.

wow a quarter of a hemisphere of a major part of where you look at on a humanoid character is gone? clearly a reference bruh.
