Lots of neat anecdotes about the development of Fallout1/2. Like Tin Cain writing the famous opening lines during Simpsons commercial breaks, as a last minute rewrite of a supposedly awful intro. First Boyarsky interview in a while, too I think. He calls out, if diplomatically, Bethesda diminishing the retrofuturism aspect of Fallout's aesthetic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbCxcq4Q3ws

Timeless Appeal posted:Did Bethesda really diminish it? I feel like it's a softer touch in the west coast trilogy whereas Bethesda lays it on pretty heavy at times. I was unclear. He meant moving the aesthetic from 50s retrofuturism more towards just plain 50s in a lot of aspects.

Liquid Communism posted:Most of the enemies are pretty good with the glarin exception of the feral ghouls. TBH, I don't even know why those are there other than to reuse Skyrim resources. My only problem with Ferals was their ubiquity. What was yours?

He might just be celebrating the anniversary. I don't think he'd be allowed to leak, even hint at a new game if he was actually involved. That said, it's hard not to read that image as anything but a reunion (of Avellone and Fallout). I'd be elated.

Avellone seems to have a big problem with how things are done at Obsidian.

Basic Chunnel posted:Anyway, given that Avellone's got an established freelance relationship with Zenimax via Prey the most likely answer is that he's on in some capacity for FO5. I guess the question is whether he'll be doing ancillary character script punching as in Prey or whether he'll be doing full-on design. If he's still committed to sowing his wild oats across the mid-budget indie spectrum I'd assume the former. I've listened to some of his interviews post departure, and he very clearly values the creative freedom and challenge of working on multiple projects, and just being allowed to do what he does best. He detested being bogged down by the corporate process at Obsidian. He's not joining a studio unless they offered him something very special (I think). If it is a new FO game, who's making it?

What is with the forums lately? New pages disappearing into limbo or posts being lost leaving a perpetually unread last post (like in this thread). Stuff like this happened way less frequently before.

ulmont posted:$5.75 million. I swear I answered this and it went into the ether. Yeah, thread's dying and the last post of every page is lost. It's why it always looks like there's an unread post. And that figure really is a pittance. As you'd expect from businessman extraordinaire Herve Caen.

Bob Socko posted:I noticed that Fallout 4 GOTY is on sale for $40 on the XBox. I own it already on the PS4, but I’ve heard the mod support is much better on the XBox. Mods are cool, though I don’t go overboard with them. Is the mod support on the XBox so much better that it’s worth buying the game again? The consoles are an XBox 1s and a PS4 Pro, if that matters. I'd think not, but that depends on how much time you've already sunk into the game. The big difference with the Xbox version is that modders can upload original assets; scripting is still fairly limited I think. In my case (hundreds of hours on PS4) I'll probably eventually rebuy it on PC to play around with larger overhauls. Not at this price, though.

Liquid Communism posted:It would have been, but Nuka World doesn't really make that possible sadly. Since you can't even get there before level 25, the whole Raider thing just means you're attacking settlements you loving built. I mean, it could have been done in a cool manner as an alternate playthough, having the PC get flat out kidnapped by raiders if you went to the monorail before you could take the quest... There are no level restrictions for Nuka World.

There's a playthrough (probably more now) on YouTube completing the entire dlc, start to finish, with a fresh level 1 character.

Seashell Salesman posted:I'm really interested to see how the VR port works out. Any news beyond the December release date and the tiny bits of gameplay Bethesda released earlier in the year? Just reiterating in case you or anyone else didn't know: FO4 VR will be a separate product. You'll have to buy the game a second time.

Water barony in FO4 is an example of "optimizing the fun out of the game." I'd love it if it was somehow integrated or acknowledged by the game, and I honestly expected a bit more with the game's emphasis on creating and linking settlements. The trailers made it look (in my eyes) like you could set up a trading caravan of sorts.
