>>724322227equally as shit

So many plebs here. I think rpgcodex is the last place on the internet where I can discuss Vidya.
>>724323534this is a rage bait site now. no genuine discussions ever take place here. just a bunch of losers making fun of other losers. even reddit isn't as bad as this.>inb4 then go back!!!k
>>724322227Fallout New Vegas thread>people talk about the factions, quests, characters, post screenshots and webms of their playthrough Fallout 3 thread>pojeet says it's better than NV>at best he posts his MS paint comics with strawmam arguments obsessing over NV>at worst he spams pics of trannies that he stalksFallout 4 thread>some fag posts his weapon and armor mods and thread dies after 3 replies
>>724323908this but the opposite
>>724323908>>people talk about the factions, quests, characters, post screenshots and webms of their playthroughThat's only in the sneaky new vegas threads, the obvious ones are the same as FO3 threads.
New Vegas is literally Fallout 3 but better, which isnt much.
>>724324010>the obvious ones are the same as FO3 threadsBecause the FO3 troon is shitposting them to death
>>724322261I honestly find myself going back to Fallout 4 the most, I think it's just because it's the most comfy and it has the best shooting. I like to return to it when I just want to turn my brain off and have fun
>>724322261>where is Shaun>have you seen Shaun>im looking for Shaun>I miss ShaunFuck that game i dropped it after the Kellogg encounter, not to mention most if not all the guns are bullshit pipe variations
>>724323908Accurate. I think its Bethesda/Zenimax paid shills though, since they want to loosen out the fans of better, previous Fallouts in order to make the brand entirely their own generic slop.This will happen naturally with time, however, whether or not money is thrown at it, since the newer generation doesn't have the attention span for the older games nor the tolerance for outdated graphics.
>>724322227>>724322261What possesses people to start threads with intentionally wrong statements? Don't you realize being ironic is reddit and not okay? We're doing sincerity now.
>>724325209he's not wrong though, you just have shit taste.
>>7243260091/10 bait, just like OP
>>724323908more like: F4 threads>people talk about porn mods and post their bimbo pc>arguments about which is the worst faction(all the factions suck but at least they are aware of it and don't pretend the story is good, unlike f3 jeets)>assaultron posting
Reminder:
>>724322227Wait a minute, why does /v/ like Sarah Lyons so much? /v/ doesn't care about heroism. /v/ is a gay fetishist. /v/ is into the fucking most disgusting shit, but Sarah is just normal. She's honorable, she's pretty, and she saves the day. Like, she's just a hero. I like her of course, but why do the freaks like her?
>>724326371new vegas is reddit shit, completely overrated.
Anytime you see someone not getting New Vegas, these are the plebs that don't care about the lore, don't read terminals, don't even care about reading the dialogues and they're just skipping stuff as quickly as possible. These are also the plebs that gets distracted often, straying off the path, from finishing one quest, busy chasing dragons or checking out some new POIs out in the distance, and ends up ammasing a bunch of neverending quests they never bothered to complete. These are the plebs with their power fantasy, chuuni mindset. They have no issues with using cheats to spawn the best weapons or stock up ammos and shit. The same plebs that modded in Cloud's Buster sword or some shit, or the bikes from Advent Children, with animu harem balloon tiddies waifus as followers. And sex mods. They spent thousands of hours doing this and self-proclaim themselves as the biggest Fallout """""fan""""", and claim their Fallout 3/4 as the best in the series. The irony is these are the same """""fan""""" that liked the shitty TV show. Lol. Now THAT'S reddit.
The exterior and interior of the mall in 3 mogs everything else in the franchise. I played 1-4, Tactics (no 76) btw.
>>724330027That's just Bethesda fans though. Bethesda games have really bad RPG elements so it's not really surprising their fans don't care about RPG elements being done well.
>>724322227been playing FO3 in TTW, in some ways it is better than NV like the map is much more open so you can wander at your own leisure, but mechanically and narratively it's worse in just about every way shape and form. thankfully I was able to fix most mechanical problems by playing the game in a modded version of NV, but there is no salvaging the writing
>>724322227truuuuue
Looooove fallout 3i'm trans btw
>>724322227i got fallout 3 for free on epic, should i play it?
>>724331957>should i play it?no
>>724332005i wasnt planning on it, been enjoying old psp/ps2 games with hd texture mods, shits crazy
>>724331049Lmao sure bud. They shoulda called the game Metro 2277. It has more Metro gameplay than Metro. The whole DC area fucking sucked. Traversing around in and out of the sewers and subways snaking through the lines was absolute dogshit with the same cookie cutter cells, everything looks the same. And then it's repeated again under the Mall with the President Metro lines. The whole DC ruins was the worst part of the game, the traversing, the exploring. The surrounding part, the bigger, open world areas are where the good stuff's are at, like the hidden Vaults and the social experiments, Little Lamplight, Oasis etc. DC ruins is ass.
>>724332345>little lamplight>good stuff
>>724332413It is (mr bean maymay). Oh also that fucking spooky abandoned building at the corner of the world map. The one with the fucking demonic obelisk and shit. That was awesome. DC ruins is ass.
New vegas has superior combat by a wide margin with different ammo types, gun mods and streamlined craftingHonestly impressed redditors prefer it when onions types prefer avoiding confrontation
>>724332739most people play FO3+NV by just picking up whatever weapon and pressing VATs until everything dies, so any difference in mechanics is totally ignored.
>>724331667New Vegas is pretty open too. It's just that it takes a bit while for first timer to feel or see it. The game wants to establish some core things, important lore into player's skull first and foremost. So you down from Goodsprings towards Primm, learn about Gangers and the Prison (if you haven't, with the guy hiding in the gas station, and defending/attacking Goodsprings), and about Primm's issue, and then go down some more to the Mojave Outpost, to relay the news about the Prison or perhaps about Primm's Sheriff issue. There you meet Ghost on the rooftop and she asked you for a favor to check out Nipton for sus activities. In Nipton you get to see the Legion for the first time. So naturally you go to Novac after this, through the highway and gets ambushed by the Khans. When you get to Novac you learn more about more things, NCR, Legion, Khans etc. Now the game truly opens up. You've been introduced to the key players, learn about the politics, and have gathered more info about your Courier shit, have 1-2 companions, some levels and some good starting gears. When you reach Novac, naturally, is when the game truly opens up.
>>724334152anon there's a massive wall basically bisecting the game into two halves, the bottom half and the top half of the map. there are cracks through the wall you can take with the right know-how, but let's not pretend the game is nearly as open ended as 3 is.
I gave Fallout 3 and my Ps3 to one of my russian friends who never played videogames before and he got addicted to this game. He praised it all the time.
>>724333356There's more role-playing immersion in FNV. Different ammunition calibers, loads and types, armor piercing, hollow points etc. Different playstyles and builds, perks combination etc. So you could truly feel like playing a Cowboy and only use Revolvers, Lever-Action Rifles and Shotguns etc.
>>724334920Oh trust me I know, my favorite run I've ever done was a lucky cowboy where I specc'd only into one handed revolvers and a sawn off shotgun. I used exclusively flame rounds in my shotgun when I wiped out the cannibals on the strip. but for many they just pick shit up and shoot it, not even heeding the stat/skill requirements to use weapons properly. Bethesda has conditioned their playerbase to play almost entirely off vibes alone instead of trying to create a cohesive archetype for their character.
>>724334390Yes I'm aware of that. I'm saying the neutral route is perfect for first timers, to establish proper lore, but also to hinder those plebian ADHD playstyle where the plebs just run around everywhere distracted by every single thing in the distance. Yes I know there's a crack at the base of Black Mountain through where the NCR safehouse is so you could head straight towards The Strip. It's kinda realistic too. IRL you can't really just "go" anywhere you like can you. There's boundaries and securities around most establishments etc. You kinda need some sort of background or some association with the said establishment to be able to enter or pass through etc.If there's no boundaries, how many times in such RPGs you mistakenly wiped out a place only to realize there's like some important lore or quest further ahead in the game progression, but they're completely closed and missed now that you've severed the questline etc. Sometimes there's even some complex branching of options and events, leading to different ending possibilites, that gets severed just like that.
>>724322227new vegas didn't even make a unique model for harmonicas>>7243222614 didn't even have harmonicas
It's like Dark Souls. You could just stumble into Sloan right off Goodsprings. Even the guy tried to block you from passing, saying the road ahead is festered by Deathclaws from their nearby Quarry. Or going North straight off Goodsprings, with all the Danger signs and Cazadors surprise! ahead.It's like getting to Firelink Shrine and immediately headed to the graveyards and Catacombs. You just can't without Heavy/Strike weapon, preferably Blessed. It's a rule of thumb, if it's too hard, maybe it's the game hinting you shouldn't be here yet for now. Turn around and go somewhere else first.
