So this is supposed to be 200 years after the bombs fell? There doesn't seem to be any semblance of civilization at all its as if the bombs fell last week and everybody is still in the eating beans in the woods immediate survival phase. I liked the setting in New Vegas where civilization had found a way and moved on best it could a lot better.

Post-post-apocalypse is kinda boring to a lot of people (myself included). The fun of a post-apocalyptic scenario is the every-man-for-himself kinda world on fire stuff. Normally this would be fine is Bethesda didn't have some weird fixation about never doing prequels. So they want to have their cake and eat it too, by setting each game further into the future but still thinking it's sensible to retain the more lawless world state. On the other hand, it's a video game so I don't actually give a drat. Didn't care about the lack of farms in Fallout 3 either.

Bethesda is bad at time scales, look at TES for a good example. Skyrim takes place 200 years after Oblivion and their excuse as to why all the forts / towers are still deserted ruins is that the oblivion crisis wrecked everything. I guess 2 centuries isn't enough time to slap some stone into a couple of holes in a wall and replace a wooden floorboard or two

The guy just deliberately turned off the menus with 'tm off' in the console, and then noticed that his menus weren't working and restarted the game. How is he so dumb?

Actually, a post-post apocalypse game is amazing because it lets you see how nations are born and grow, such as when the Neo USA, ridiculously evil Homicidal Football Slavers, and Cyborg Computer Dude all fought a three-way over a small strip of Vegas and Hoover Dam. Post-post apocalypse is what actually good writers go for.

Also I'm too drunk and lazy to quote the other guy but I don't give a gently caress what actual good writers go for I'd rather have a more chaotic post-apoc experience in my videogame. I don't play videogames for the good writing, I play them so I can shoot raiders in the face. I'm of the opinion New Vegas had far too few raiders to shoot in the face, compared to Fallout 3.

Post-nega-ironically agreeing with you my fellow post-post-post-post-post-apocalypse genre lover. Edit: also here's a time-lapse video of someone walking across Skyrim. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXdzpXOrnbc Note that this doesn't mean QUITE as much as it may seem since they seem to be literally only WALKING (not even running) across it and need to circumvent a bunch of mountains and poo poo along the way unlike the mostly straightforward Fallout 4 path, which also has sprinting going on. Still, Skyrim definitely seems much larger at first glance. Infinity Gaia fucked around with this message at 09:46 on Nov 4, 2015 |

Dude just fought a wild dog, took like a minute for him to finish it off and the dog attacked once in that. Mostly ran around in a circle around the main character.

Otacon posted:That's... that's it? Entire map slashed in half in 11 minutes? Yeah, it was one thing to see how small it was in the Pipboy map, but to actually see it demonstrated like that is pretty depressing. As more stuff gets leaked it just becomes clearer and clearer to me that this game needed more time in the oven, like XCOM2.

Game looking adequate as what it is aside, it's not cool to have to defend a games flaws from the perspective of a boorish dullard who wants to fire a machine gun endlessly into waves of mutant mud crabs or whatever.

How exactly is a poisonous fog or a fence better than just a message that says there's no more game in that direction?  It serves the exact same purpose except one doesn't make the distance look stupid/kill you if you wander into the wrong place
