>It's Hegelian Dialectics, not personal animosity. How do I put this basically enough? It's a philosophical theory, the kind you might encounter if you took time to read some books. The fundamental premise is to envision history as a sequence of "dialectical" conflicts. Each dialectic begins with a proposition, a thesis which inherently contains, or creates, its opposite - an antithesis. Thesis and antithesis. The conflict is inevitable. But the resolution of the conflict yields something new - a synthesis - eliminating the flaws in each, leaving behind common elements and ideas. The bombs wiped the slate clean. Human civilization descended to a level of ignorance that effectively set our cultural progress back to zero. The NCR has all of the problems of the ancient Roman Republic - extreme bureaucracy, corruption, extensive senatorial infighting. Just as with the ancient Republic, it is natural that a military force should conquer and transform the NCR into a military dictatorship. Thesis and antithesis. The Colorado River is my Rubicon. The NCR council will be eradicated, but the new synthesis will change the Legion as well from a basically nomadic army to a standing military force that protects its citizens, and the power of its dictator.

I fucking hate this game's artstyle. It didn't go for realistic, it went for smallhead Chad artstyle, giving every character a cartoon small head and a proportionally big body. This encouraged smallhead Chads like Ronaldo to be seen as "attractive" to the mainstream person, smallhead Chads who look athletic simply because they have small heads and their shoulders look bigger. I fucking hate smallhead chads so much, especially since only 40% of the population is smallhead, giving them an unfair aesthetic advantage.

IT'S NOT FUCKING FAIR!

Thankfully gameplay and writing are not mutually exclusive, are they? Unless you think the programmers are also the ones writing the story and dialogue?

Writing complements the gameplay, by making you engaged in what you're doing and why. There's not a single game that's been made worse by having good writing that wouldn't be even worse if the story was terrible, but also present in exactly the same proportion.
>>
>>340647740
Fallout 4
>>
The writing might be shit and the RPG elements might be dummied out, but you gotta admit about Fallout 4 that it is, from a gameplay point of view, much better than the predecessors.
VATS is no longer an all-out "lel you aim you hit you kill" item, and it feels much more dynamic than before. You actually have to think quickly during a battle where to aim with VATS compared to other games where it was essentialy a pause button.
Shooting people outside of VATS is actually reliable now because you no longer miss at point-blank range while unzoomed and you actually hit from a moderate distance while looking down the sights/scope
Fallout 4 has much less game-breaking bugs than Fallout 3 and New Vegas. Fallout 3 was somewhat buggy while New Vegas was released AS A GOTY WHILE THE NCR STORYLINE WAS EASILY BROKEN. Mods could fix it, but why the fuck are you releasing it as a goty while it's a glitch orgy?
Weapons and armor no longer have a "durability" meter (thank God) and now can even spawn with special effects attached to them.
Although the gameplay might be nice, the story and RPG elements are still shit and dummied out respectively, which makes the game semi-enjoyable.

It even has extensive mod support and a branching story! And Anthony Burch's writing has no envolvement with it whatsoever! How great is that?

I think the problem - on 4chan at least - is that insincerity has become so prevalent that it's poisoned discussion of anything we give more than superficial value. The current 'console war' epitomizes this perfectly, it is filled with so much transparent falsehood it completely undermines absolutely any apparent demonstrations of convictions. These memes create an environment where it is even easier than ever to dismiss radical, divergent or edgy ideas.

The bottom line: /v/ is the perfect hugbox

Everything about FO4 is a downgrade. The VATS was a downgrade, the fucking graphics were terrible, half of the music was literally rehashed from FO3, the RPG elements were a downgrade, even the story was a downgrade. SPECIAL was downgraded, skills were removed, fucking perks were terrible.

Sure, I will admit I had fun in FO4, but it is plainly a disappointment. It was obviously rushed out the ass to get big bucks in time for the holidays.

This is good video game writing because it's sound logic and it's presented from the perspective of someone who believes in it which makes it easy to believe in as well, but the game presents other perspectives that show flaws you can point out.

Which is a pity, because the voice acting can actually be funny when it wants to. And the delivery of SOME of the lines aren't actually too bad, like when you're talking with the melee vendor in Diamond City that's making up blatant lies about Baseball

Don't mistake this for a defense of main character voice acting in this game however, because it is entirely unecessary and it shackles the writing to mediocrity too much

A single Fallout DLC is better written and better designed and is more positively remembered than an full Bethesda Fallout.
The Survivalist/Father In The Caves a character you don't even meet and who's only form is in deity form and a skeleton is better written than any Bethesda Fallout character in 3 and 4.

>>340651137
Yeah no I wouldn't go that far. Honest Hearts was horrible.
I'll agree that the Father of the Caves makes for an excellent bit of storytelling [hell, halfway through Fallout 4 I've stopped paying much attention to terminal entries since most of them have nothing interesting], but the DLC as a whole is quite mediocre and nowhere near the standards that Old World Blues and Dead Money have set. Joshua Graham is great, but he doesn't salvage the entire thing and I actually rank is characters beneath the writing of some of the Fallout 4 companions.

In fact, this is another thing I hate about Fallout 4. It has some interesting ideas for companions, but the dialogue system being so gutted means you can barely interact with them, and their quests are nowhere near as interesting as the quests for the companions in NV.

I'd say it's a case of "great concept, horrid execution".

It's cringeworthy as much as you'd expect dialogue ripped straight from a superhero comics from the 50s to be cringeworthy. That is to say, immensely. The dialogue is not mandatory though, and it only appears if you're wearing the silver shroud coat, so you can just approach it as you would approach any other quest.

I'd say it's one of the few bits of content of the game that actually stands out.

Oh fuck off Toddposter. The game released with a bug that had the game crash to desktop just by entering a section of the map. Not just a building or dungeon, an entire open are of downtown Boston, which blocked off a dozen quests including the main story. The only fix for it was to spawn inside the target building or noclip your way up to the Prydwen.

That's not even mentioning your supposed "gameplay improvements" which are really just the latest steps in a long series of further watering down an RPG into a mediocre shooter.

I noticed that playing it that way even bypasses what would ordinarily be a rather difficult charisma check for the final confrontation. It's a little bit of smart game design, whoever was behind that quest certainly knew what he was doing.

But the problem with me saying this, however, is that praising even a tiny aspect of a game such as a single quest makes idiots take it as you praising the game as a whole, because understanding nuance is for the weak apparently. Fallout 4 is not a good product in the context of the franchise its named after, but it managed to make me smile in a couple instances, like that one quest, and what's more surprisingly, in the final quest for the Automatron DLC where you're going through the Mechanist's facility and seeing how screwed up the people at Robco [I believe it was Robco?] designed the Robobrain production process.

Seeing the BoS airship was also quite jarring for someone who's used to the static nature of their overworlds.

Thing is, Honest Hearts was actually kind of shit from a gameplay perspective.

Yet the setting, dialog, Survivalist's entries, theme, and player's perspective are all so goddamned tightly put together that I don't care. I go to Zion, shoot some big Yao-guai, get my gear, and get out. But the first time through, I was pretty enthralled.

As far as the exploration element goes, however, Far Cry is a disgrace, and the better gunplay is drowned out in how pointless the open world is [in fact, the gunplay is only really noticeable better if you choose the heavier weapons, not spend the entire game with a pistol and sniper rifle like I did].

Far Cry 3 is as pointless open world as pointless open world goes, although I couldn't speak for 4 since I haven't played it.

And let's not get into the writing. Far Cry 3 left me with a pathological hatred of natives and I would take HATE NEWSPAPER Bethesda dialogue writing every single day.

Thing is, there's really no way to take a excerpt out of a game full of dialog and have it be a good example of "good dialog". This is easy with stupid dialog, but there's no real way to write something so well that it stands out as great all by itself.

Passages from great, classic books seem like pretentious nonsense by themselves. Good writing takes place over the course of an entire work, not in little, easily-quoteable bursts.

New Vegas accomplishes "good" dialog by having dialog that's consistently appropriate for the setting and characters. Every character speaks from their own background in the world; they didn't just write up some wacky characters and then sprinkle them anywhere. New Vegas' script actually takes the lore and setting into consideration, along with an absurd amount of SPECIAL/stat/faction checks in the player dialog. This makes for a much better RPG.

Consistency is the root of realism. You can have any stupid nonsense you want in fiction as long as it obeys the rules initially laid out. This is why pre-war Jet, T-60 armor, and East Coast Super Mutants are problems.

The issue with Bethesda's wacky writing isn't that it's just unforgivable, it's that they obviously don't even try to remain consistent within the IP. It's "rule of cool" with them.

I really don't see it.

Looking for relics and reading soldier notes/drun journals isn't really all that different from exploration in F4. In fact I had some fun in looking for relicts because some of them were hidden in a clever way.

>the better gunplay is drowned out in how pointless the open world is
It's open world solely so you can fuck around and it does its job perfectly.

>in fact, the gunplay is only really noticeable better if you choose the heavier weapons, not spend the entire game with a pistol and sniper rifle like I did
Even rifle/pistol gunplay is better since they actually put attention to detail (like different animations depending on if you had a round in the chamber or not)

Hell with Ziggys mod it gets even better.

>Far Cry 3 is as pointless open world as pointless open world goes
It's not trying to be anything more since it's a fucking shooter so there is nothing wrong with that. F4 is pointless open world as well, but it's supposed to be an RPG.

>And let's not get into the writing.
And what exactly was wrong with the writing? Some characters were retarded, but I don't recall any plotholes.
>>
>>340664618
It's like an idea that they just stopped caring about halfway through the game. When you actually reach the institute, there's nothing like that going on, they're just making Synths to serve mankind and rebuild the world.

Yet you find people fighting Synth copies of themselves, and family members replaced by Synths.

Unless it's just the Railroad giving Synths people's memories and facial surgery, sending them up to live their "new life" where they try to take control of their family.

Yeah, I was okay with T-45d when they explained in Fallout 3 that it was early prototype armor not as good as T-51, it's just that Lyons' BoS found a huge cache of the stuff.

Which doesn't really explain at all why Lyons' Pride and the upper level guys in Lyons' BoS weren't in T-51b. I mean you find a suit of it in the fucking game.

Then in Fallout 4 they create T-60 and basically go "fuck old fans, fuck Obsidian, we will not be second-guessed again, so our design is the best armor, and it stays".

Thing is, I wouldn't even care about fucking T-60 if it had been explained that Maxon's BoS was manufacturing the shit. That would also explain why it requires Fusion Cores to run (because T-51 had an internal power source lasting 200 years, which they might not be able to replicate). But instead, they just shit on the lore to cover their half-assed ideas.

Hey I'm playing Fallout 2. Does anyone remember how to fuel the Tanker if you've murdered everyone in the hubologists' HQ, thus can't get hardened power armor, thus can't get the Shi scientist to fuel the tanker? It's only been about a year since the last time I played and I don't recall there having been a spot almost at the end of the game where the death of a single NPC spells game over a few quests down the line when you need him to be alive. That kind of lack of choice sounds more like Bethesda than Blackisle.

Eh, not really. The only thing it improves on is smoother gunplay.

VATS still feels generally the same. The only thing it seems like they added to it was that it doesn't pause time now, which is better, but nothing amazing. You certainly don't have to 'think quickly' during battle with VATS at all. Not sure what you're talking about there. It's basically the same as it was. Shooting outside of VATS was never really an issue either. It wasn't the best, but it still worked well.

FO4 still had a fair share of bugs just like every other Bethesda game. Some people run into a lot of them. Some people never get any at all. Nothing worth mentioning here.

The durability in Fallout was actually pretty neat, though. And even so, I wouldn't really consider removing it a huge plus to the gameplay.

And RPG elements are a huge part of actual gameplay, too, so that still counts as a part of the gameplay in general. It's not just the shooting parts.

It doesn't. Stop strawmanning and trying to shift the point to comform your views.

In fact, let's talk about old games. You you don't deny that gameplay has the possibility to evolve with time, and when it does so, it's for the better. Do you?

Then why do you think storytelling and writing should be in any way different?

Plenty of games where you can be just a bad dude saving the president are still around, just the same as there are videogames that tried to expand past that simple concept and incorporate writing as a means to complement the gameplay, or even as a part of it. And guess what fuccboi, plenty of people liked that, and Fallout stood as an example of a franchise that did it well. And it is now being undone. This is what we're complaining about.

A large amount of tryhard dialogue doesn't make a game good. The gameplay fucking stunk and all the 'choices' were just switches on a railroad that meant nothing just like in Fallout 3

Go fuck yourself, you just outed yourself as the sapling that you are. Your pretense will fade with age

Too bad the legion questline can be completed in less than 5 hours and is really shallow except for some great Caesar speeches like the one you posted

Fallout 4 still sucks absolute donkey dick in comparison to New Vegas

Even DnD didn't start out as just combat, you fucking retard. The entire point was to play a role.

I play NCR and Yes Man almost everytime and Legion is kinda a breath of fresh air when sometimes it's just go kill those schmucks and be an evil prick to kids by tearing stuffed animals in half.

It's no bullshit, quick, and efficient unlike the NCR

Pertaining to the image, I think I can understand just a little bit why Vault 13 rejects the Vault Dweller once they return.

Seeing a neighbor you've known for so much of your life go away and return completely different had to have been freaky for a people that have never ventured out into the wastes.

>A story based RPG shouldn't have continuity

It's a story based RPG you cauctist* of course it requires continuity. Bethesda are a bunch of lazy jews that don't want to do their job so they half ass the "dialog" and any fallout lore so they can make quick cash without the effort. This includes textures, weapons, bugs, lighting, etc.


Cauctist - an autistic cuck

The VAs themselves are pretty chill about the whole thing. Male VA really didn't think the game needed voiced protags, wasn't completely convinced on the whole idea of it.
Also said that in some situations, all he had was the line and not the script. So he had to just improvise on what he thought would be appropriate.

I got banned from their forums circa Fallout 3's release because some faggot child released some simplistic, broken, pointless mod and I commented without kissing his ass and ended up banned for "violating forum etiquette"

You had booze, is all. Those barks for skipping dialogue change when you have an alcohol effect active.
>>
>>340681454
I got banned several times. But I was posting there from my Cell phone's hotspot, so I had a new IP pretty much every time I logged on and just make a new account whenever I need one.

Growing attached to your forum account is for attention-seeking faglords. That's why, even though it's shit, I like /v/. Closest thing we have to that is tripfags.

>It wasn't in RPGs of the past, RPGs which started out as nothing more than going into a dungeon and fighting monsters
The first RPG games were based on tabletop games like Shadowrun or DnD, that means tons of dialogue and situations where combat can be avoided if you have the right skills.

You don't get the GECK in Fallout 1. It's not the Vault Dweller. It's the Chosen One.

Speaking of the chosen one, is a combat playthrough of Fallout 2 in any way realistic to accomplish, considering that the final boss fight is a giant with an AA gun in a room with a dozen turrets? Even with ridiculous grinding there is no hope for a third turn for the player on wimpy difficulty. Fighting through the entire Cathedral and killing the Master is like stomping ants compared to the fight with Frank.

>>340637735
This is why I don't like Sallow's or House's ends. They're based on speculation and long-term plans, which each could fall apart in many ways. I won't dispute that they're both geniuses (not agreeing or disagreeing on that point) with carefully thought out visions, but there's too many ifs.

It's actually about video games.

>>340685907
The Legion's in particular seems to want to put way too much at stake in exchange for too little in return.

If Mr. House's plan goes wrong, New Vegas will be just another city in the wasteland, not the shining furnace of industry that he promises.

If Caesar's plan goes wrong, however, he'll have destroyed the entirety of the NCR in the hopes of changing the Legion into an actual civilization by the time they reach the coast... and accomplish nothing.

Oh, apparently just clicking the computer once when you enter the oilrig puts it in permanent shutdown and even the Presidential Key can't be used to hack the turrets. That's some Nintendo Power walkthrough shit right there.
