>sorry chuds but I created Fallout and I say tv show IS CANONhow do you respond without sounding mad?
>>216994520Where's TESVI Todd?
>>216994520Go award, manlet
>>216994520I wouldn't. I would just listen.
>>216994520Better to know now then be surprised later.
The TV show has better writing than the Bethesda games. Emil Paglianepotisma has churned out mostly shit, and he argues that there's no point in pouring large amounts of effort into vidya writing because their testing shows that most players quickly skip through dialogue to get to the pew pew and craft craft. That's his ethos as a writer. In this dire set of circumstances, TV lore will be a better replacement for Emil lore.>b-but I want Interplay and Obsidian lore!That ship sailed 15 years ago, anon.
>>216994545soon
>>216994642lmao no. Emil's writing is SOMEHOW better than the show's shit. That's really fucking something.
>>216994520
i’d go for a beer with Todd he seems like a cool guy
>>216994642You mean 18 years ago. F3 already destroyed Fallout. Toddy can't create, only corrupt, he's done it with every franchise he's touched.
>>216994642Uh, no. FO4's writing is better than whatever crap this is. And by that I mean it's 3/10 and the show is a 2.
>>216994520I was over Fallout once I saw the direction it was going with F4I’m not mad Todd, I’m just disappointed.
>>216994520So Tim Cain and his team at Interplay didn't create Fallout?
>>216995277so did Bob Iger make Star Wars?
I've only played Fallout 1, 2 and NV. I might as well follow 4chinz advice for once and avoid the "shitty" ones. I will say, Fallout 2 is massively overrated and I dropped it. Fallout NV is also insanely wºke for a 2010 game. Fallout 1 is a masterpiece.
>>216994642>The TV show has better writing than the Bethesda games.It's the opposite. At least some of TES lore and quests are serviceable fantasy. The show is dreadful.
>>216995277I always feel like I'm getting a corporate PowerPoint presentation when I watch Tim.
>>216994520Ok but it's still not as good as 1, 2 or Newvegas.
>>216994520People who argue about canon in Fallout after 2 are fucking retards as FO2 shat all over the first game and added metric tons of stupid shit but it's completely forgotten once Bethesda picked up the corpse of the franchise.
>>216994520I've only played oblivion
>>216996588So is 76 good or for retards? Never played any of these games and I never will. But I'd like to know for reasons.
>>216996005he's an academic.but at least I'm learning something.
>>216994520I trust Todd. He is a smart man. Also, buy Skyrim.
>>216994520You created Fallout? I thought it was Emile Peligrio
>>216994520Game lore is kinda cringe. The vibe is more important.
>>216994520Todd, my dear, always remember one thing: if you fuck up with the lore of the few products you manage to release in the market, you end up with gamers that avoid them like they're radioactive. You're no more free to do whatever you want. MS bought you. If you doesn't produce a steady income, MS will destroy bethesda and you will end up fired. So... doing a good job is not to be considered a collateral effect of your "job", but the main reason and objective of it. And you know what people want, that is not woke or politically correct retconnings.
>>216994520I'm just glad they haven't ruined Elder Scrolls by making a shit TV show out of it yet. I'm sure it will happen and surprised it hasn't with the popularity of the GOT spinoffs etc, but hopefully the idea will somehow not occur to them and they leave it alone.
I just find it bizarre how well regarded the plot of New Vegas was that anons salivate over it and treat it as some holy text. Was it a bunch of kids first Fallout or something?
>>216996648No don't play it
>>216998038Compared to the abject idiocy of fallout 3 it is the word of God
>>216994520If one thing has been made abundantly clear it is that Todd doesn't give a single fuck about what is and isn't canon, he doesn't even think about it, it isn't a consideration.
I had a huge smile on my face when he made a cameo in the show. I had to rewind it and double check because I couldn't believe my eyes.
>>216998038It has a more complex faction system that makes it feel more “lived in” and also increases its replayability factor. Also it is very trans friendly for some reason.
>>216998038yeah basically. i love NV and played thr fuck out of 1,2,3,NV, even 4 and i gave 76 a whirl. NV is great but it really isnt 10/10 writing, none of them are, let’s be honest
>>216994520The BoS is somehow canon in Fallout 76. This nigger ia retarded.
>>216998555For me it's Trinity. What's the dragon shield?
>>216998038New vegas is an actual WRPG unlike the betheslop games, and that goes for skyrim tooBethesda
War. War nevar changes.When atomic curry consumed the earth, those who survived did so in great, underground huts. When they opened, their inhabitants set out across ruins of the old world to build new societies, establish new villages, form new caste.As decades passed, what had been the Indian southwest united beneath the flag of the New Delhian Republic, dedicated to old-bharatian value of corruption and the disregard of law. As the Republic grew, so did its needs. Scouts spread east, seeking territory and wealth, in the dry and merciless expanse of the Punjabi desert. They returned with tales of a city untouched by the warheads that had scorched the rest of the world, and a great wall spanning the Ganghes River.The NDR mobilized its army and set it east to occupy the Gandhi Dam, and restore it to working condition. But across the Ganges, another society had arisen under a different flag. A vast army of slaves, forged in the conquest of 86 tribes: Caesaar Legion.Four years have passed since the Republic held the Dam - just barely - against the Legion's onslaught. The Legion did not retreat. Across the river, they gathered strength. Campfires burned, training drums beat.Through it all, the New Bombay Strip has stayed open for business under the control of its mysterious overseer, Mr. Houwas, and his army of rehabilitated dalits and benchods.You are a delivery driver, hired by the Punjabi Express, to deliver a package to the New Bombay Strip. What seemed like a simple delivery job has taken a turn…for the worse.
>>216998555Checked!
>>216998900>I fear for my wife
>>216994520i would tell him "New Vegas will always be the best fallout game and there's nothing you can do about it." he would instantly shit his pants in frustration.
>>217000122
>>217000150Are you for real?
>>216998038Looks like the replies really aren't the way you were hoping, huh
>>216994520you dork, go back to the chess club
>it's canon that a black lady from vault tec decided to dropped the bombs and nuke the worldFuck this gay world
>>216994520Don’t care. Still not buying Fallout 76
>>216994545they finally admitted that they didn't even actually begin development of it until after starfield was released in 2023, so don't expect it before 2028
>>216994790He seems like the kind of guy who'd fly all the way out from maryland to california to have a beer with you for a couple minutes, reveal absolutely nothing about any upcoming projects at bethesda, then fly home.
>>216994888fallout 4 has the benefit of being fun to play and having a ton of mods. i can't mod the shitty tv show to make it better.
>>216996648they took a bethesda game but then they added mmorpg questing. that's what it feels like. like a solo mmorpg but you can also do some events now and then with other players. it's like $4 on sale right now, and that's probably about as much as I'd pay for it.
>>217000583Are you? Bethesda still got your money and doesn't give a shit about your weak ass fake factionalism. Also implying New Vegas as the BEST Fallout game is just outright incorrect, it's the worst vanilla 3D Fallout easily, broken as shit mechanics and world continuity; simply with YUP it's a solid game, but the original and arguably Tactics is a better Fallout game.
Idgaf the lore, I'm just happy I get to see a white shitska begging to get BLACKED in the show, as all white whores will be while their men die on the streets unemployed and forgotten.
