It's interesting that you frame it this way, because you've correctly identified the core thematic differences, but you've drawn the exact wrong conclusion.

The towns and civilization of the classic games were intentionally absurd, almost a parody of a functioning post-apocalypse. Bethesda understood that this undercut the intended tone. Their decision to create a world that is mostly empty with super mutants and nameless raider gangs wasn't a lack of creativity; it was a deliberate correction to deliver the truly desolate, lonely experience the setting always should have had. You're seeing the truth but calling it a flaw.

>>724039347
they managed to make the creators of synths a pathetic looking faction with a barely standing military power.

>>724039227
Fallout 2 had talking Deathclaws and a giant mutant who could kill them with one punch.

>>724039530

super mutants, enclave and fev should've ONLY been in the west coast. They clearly added that shit out of pure laziness.

If this was their intention, they failed. The writing is so shitty and so goofy that it's harder to take 3, 4 and 76 seriously. Even if the originals had zany shit in them, it incorporated them well into the tone. Bethesda Fallouts are just a mess with no clear inspiration or direction, except "shit".

>>724040627
it's because they had to uses 3's engine which had everything grimy and disgusting but at least there was a some cleanliness and realism compared to the unsubtle nasty shit in 4 and 3

My dream fallout is to have the writing of New Vegas with naval combat fighting raider pirates in junk boats. While Florida is some mutated irradiated swampland caused by a Geck. With no reddit ship, caps, supermutants, or BOS. No fucking offscreen enclave either. A completely different isolated world that has changed from the bombs but is in the same universe and series.

It's super funny how the main theme of Fallout is that war never changes even after the world is destroyed and the civilizations that rise up again will keep fighting each other, but Bethesda NEVER puts this in any of their games. You always have a powerful enemy like the Enclave or Institute against a random tiny group of retards and the rest of the people of the wasteland have nothing to do with it or each other whatsoever.

In Fallout 1 there was Vault 15 which happened to be made up of people of various cultures and races, but 2 explains that it was actually intentional, then you had the Fallout Bible which did get a little silly like Vault 69, but still that was just a regular social experiment seeing how long it could last. Then you had Bethesda be like "Okay, let's make the experiments like super evil and shit like they make everyone in the vault lose their minds and kill each other for like no reason at all."

>>724043264
I believe 11 and 22 are the best done Vaults in the series and nothing will ever convince me otherwise. 22 for the obvious fucked-up place it became as shown in your pic, but the social idea behind 11 is fucked-up and makes me wonder what it would be like if it was filled with ordinary people from a dictatorship instead of those from a democracy (as shown in NV).

>>724043367
And so in their spite decided to rape 1, 2 and NV with their fucking Amazon show. I believe that pre-war America’s government could have survived as multiple different groups but all of them being the Enclave is just retarded. Hell, if Bethesda had foresight they could have eventually made a game where each of these remnant factions meet-up and collide with their competing interests. Overlying story could be similar to NV but instead of choosing either the overtly good faction (NCR), overtly neutral-ish faction (House), overtly evil faction (Legion) or yourself (Yes Man), you’re forced to choose amongst what the player would perceive as the least worst option. No BoS, no other good guys, just a bunch of dicks trying to take control of something. But I wouldn’t trust Bethesda with that idea (or any ideas) at all.

OG Fallout is the real life Old West.
Bethesda Fallout is the fictional Wild West.
Sure the former makes a lot more sense and is more intellectually stimulating, but ask anyone where they'd want their action adventure story to take place, they'd say the latter.

>>724047441
If you want an action adventure play uncharted. The West Coast Fallout games are fictional Wild West, only they are well written. The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. Whereas Bethesda's aren't.

>>724047171
Fallout 2 also has themes of civilisation being corrupt, evil and exploiting people. Civilisation was never something explicit in Fallout, people had barely begun to recover.
Shady Sands was built using G.E.C.K., Vault City only exists because it exploits the poor, Adytum is essentially a police state, The Hub only exists because of the Water Traders monopoly, and most of the previously not mentioned cities in Fallout 2 only exist because of drug and slave trade

while other central piece of the original, the NCR, gets killed off screen by writers who just skimmed the wiki page for the most superficial understanding of what it even was

depressing part is that NV shows a fallout in the spirit of the originals can be done, even if it uses the same bethesda assets while fan hobby projects show you can replicate the look and feel of original fallouts in first person gameplay (fallout:bakersfield)

fallout would have been better off continuing as a indie IP, modder projects or max AA like Wasteland. Instead of this super diluted piss water bethesda turned it into

Beth snatched Fallout IP since Todd had played it and it was up for sale at the time. Otherwise they were planning to do their own post apoc IP anyway. But given what happens every time they start implementing their own original ideas chances are good it would have been another sirsfield

>>724049916
You're just confirming what I'm saying. The fact that a fucking casino is intact while people nearby live in houses with holes in the walls doesn't make the wasteland a good place to live.

The supposedly canon TV show is supposed to take place in the heartland of civilization from the 1/2/NV area and it's a typical Bethesda wastelands after a single city got nuked by le evil vault-tec cabal

>dude's entire purpose in life is going "nuh uh, EVERY Bethesda game is bad even the ones you like!" in threads that praise Morrowind/non-bethesda fallout while posting anime pictures
why tho

>>724052557
Cause Shady Sands got nuked which is where season 1 takes place, the areas of the NCR north of Shady Sands (e.g., Vault City, New Reno, The Hub, etc) are probably still civilized based on basic logic but it's bethesda so who the fuck knows honestly

>>724039530
>The towns and civilization of the classic games were intentionally absurd, almost a parody of a functioning post-apocalypse. Bethesda understood that this undercut the intended tone.
Wrong, the first game sets the intended tone by being the first entry. Fallout from the beginning expressed the theme of rebuilding and the conflicts of differing factions on how the future should be constructed. Fallout 2 was even more explicit in this with places like Shady Sands being functional cities with power grids and uniformed security. Fallout 3 breaks this by acting like the bombs dropped 5 minutes ago instead of 200 years previous.

Why lie about something that can be so easily disproven? You can just play Fallout, go to Shady Sands and Junktown and see how wrong you are.

Reading Fallout threads always makes me sad
I have my grievances with every entry in the series, but I still enjoy them all for what they offer(except 76 which shouldn't have existed)
4 was absolutely a step down in every category except gameplay, but I'm still hoping they can recover and make a good entry again

>>724055005
That entirely depends on if they learned anything for Starfield's lukewarm reception and if TES6 shows them attempting to improve their writing and RPG elements.

>>724055005

I couldn't even find the motivation to F4, I really regret purchasing it. I only tried it more seriously years later with some mods to make it a real survival game and it was just ok but I was constantly being taken away from the immersion by the dumbass story and dialogues and didn't even reach the half game before dropping it.
Skyrim, Oblivion, NV are some of my most played singleplayer games, Enderal as well, but with F4 I couldn't and I don't think they'll ever make something I like again, I couldn't even be arsed to try Starfield.
KCD 1&2 are the real spiritual successors when it comes to what I liked about Bethesda games, hell even Avowed isn't actually that bad and CP77 at least takes itself seriously so there's still hope for the genre.

Skyrim is literally Fallout 4 but worse
KCD 2 is the best example of a shitty sequel that destroys everything the original built
CP77 is a comically dumb and cringey game that takes itself too seriously while being extremely shallow

3 is less linear than new vegas. It also has more exciting perks and quest bonuses and your character can eventually have permanent 85% damage reduction.

Kind of contradicted yourself there. You're also blowing the indian shit extremely out of proportion.

Just open Starfield credits. Even most of the people who made Fallout 76 are no longer there and have left Bethesda.

Fo4 might be completely retarded in spots, but it still has the prydwen and the power armor system and the glowing sea, and those are three of the coolest and best additions to the fallout series. i simply can't hate it

>>724055771
I did, most of the leads on Starfield have been at Bethesda since Fallout 3

>>724055637
Explain how it isn't. You can go anywhere in DC from the start of the game. Quests are more open ended in more ways than having to pick the right dialogue, even the tutorial quests had branching paths. Optional locations are more fleshed out and filled with secret items and unmarked quests.

>>724055771
>people who made Fallout 76
FO76 was mostly made by a different and newly acquired studio.

>>724055578
You're just parroting the usual /v/ contrarian opinion and I can't agree with any of that.

This is a complete lie. Bethesda made Fallout 76, other studios helped them make updates later.
>>724056313
That's my opinion. For god's sake just open the lore tab in CP77 and read something out loud. It's fucking awful.

>>724056441
No, Bethesda helped make F76, obviously, since a different studio wouldn't be adept at Creation Engine. There's a reason they showed off both Starfield and TES6 at the same E3 as F76

>>724056441
Looks like Chris Mayer from the Austin studio is the most important guy in the whole credit.

>>724049959
man there's some alternate history where Bethesda made their own not-Fallout IP and it was Starfield tier awful without anyone to rip off and they killed the company before Skyrim.

>>724056783
Somehow most of the people in the credits for the release of Fallout 76 also worked on Fallout 4
>>724056823

>>724056946
Anon, that's literally Fallout 3. For most of its development it was their own IP, not Fallout.
Fallout name didn't really matter for Bethesda's games success

>>724057049
no vaults, no pip boy, no super mutants, no enclave, no BoS, etc etc. Just terrible emilshit substitutes, like Starfield had.

>>724039227
I don't think you're well equipped for this topic. You're complaining that FO76's civilization isn't as developed as FO2's when the whole point of FO76 was that you're there as it's being developed.

>>724057202
Anon, all the things you mentioned are nothing like the original Fallout games. You could change a couple of things in Fallout 3 and it would no longer be Fallout

Fallout 3 is a perfect translation of the Interplay games from a gameplay standpoint. It's the story that didn't match up.

>>724057364
Without the framework Bethesda wouldn't have been able to find a pot to piss in. Again, like Starfield. Maybe if they shamelessly made Fallout with the serial numbers filed off I guess so they didn't actually have to work off their own dogshit ideas.

>>724057467
>Fallout 3 is a perfect translation of the Interplay games from a gameplay standpoint
No? It's barely an RPG, the stats barely do something and most perks are "+5% to this skill and 10% to that skill".

Nigger you can't aim at limbs in melee/unarmed because bethesda devs were too retarded to make extra animations or vats attacks for specific limbs

>>724057704
If you use a weapon your char isn't qualified to use in FO1, they will likely miss and hurt themselves. If you do so in FO3, you will be less effective, but still effective, because it's an FPS. Imagine if you had something like a Fat Man in a classic FO game, a miss would mean wiping out your whole party.

Not all stats are useful in FO1 (lol Charisma), most skills are trap options - but the mechanics are undeniably more conductive to actually trying different characters and having different experiences with them.

>>724057285
pretty sure they went with that to be lazy lol
yeah lets make a mmorpg with zero npcs great idea lads

>>724057865
>most skills are trap options
Original Fallout's got some bloat in it, but I disagree. There are definitely useless skills, but I think it's pretty exaggerated just how many of them are truly useless. Other than that I agree.

>>724057848
Which perfectly captures how Melee in FO1 was a shallow meme and how it wouldn't even properly benefit from the only aimed shot worth going for: the head/eyes for crits.

>>724058105
aiming for legs to knock targets or for arms to make them drop their weapons out is pretty fun and viable akshully

especially until you get that 95% eye hit chance

>>724058105
You've never played it. Melee/Unarmed is awesome, especially with drugs. At the early levels, breaking arms to make sure that enemies can't attack you is a good strategy, and it's easier to do it with Unarmed.

>>724057049

He's only worked on Fallout 76.

todd is the one who leaned into art deco, retrofuturism and 40s/50s music, and that's what gave fallout it's true identity today that raises it above the vast majority of mediocre post-apocalyptic media.

>>724039227

>>724061302
Before, stuff from the pre war period felt like unique relics of a bygone age. A simple pre-war handgun demolished stuff compared to what the Gunrunners cobbled together, energy weapons were all nuts, Power Armor was a unique reward, a prewar car is a total game changer for travel.

Now every other bandit gas scavenged power armor abd ebergyvweapons look like they were made in a basement
