One complaint I've seen is the Ghoul doesn't look enough like a ghoul and I guess I get it but at the same time you want Walton to have as much freedom to act as possible so settle down.

twistedmentat posted:People love Fallout because of them. New Vegas only exists because Fallout 3 was a huge hit. Fallout 3 genuinely has one of my favorite moments in games where you step out of 101 to see the Capital Wasteland for the first time.

File Purnell into the 'I didn't know she was British' category. She was also really good as the voice of Jinx in Arcane.

esquilax posted:Mostly it's because the lore complaints are overwhelmingly really bad. The ghoul stuff doesn't really bother me too much. Ghouls already feel pretty tough and rugged, so healing factor, sure. Thinking especially of ones like Raul in NV. Also I think it was established every sapient ghoul is worried they might one day go feral but if not, it makes sense. And needing drugs to stave it off is admittedly a bit weirder for me but I just can't muster up caring enough to call it bad.

Vinylshadow posted:Would you be surprised to learn that there's some that like it (much to their admitted surprise), some that don't, and others that laugh at it being canon due to its events? ("People bawling over something that contradicts the games? First time?") Good for them. Glad they've mellowed somewhat. Open Source Idiom posted:I don't super care one way or the other, but I think the main thing Bethesda cares about is money. I think it's safe to say Bethesda cares - even if their attempts to show it is sometimes inept - but that's almost assuredly true of ZeniMax.

Arc Hammer posted:Brotherhood Education ain't what it used to be once they started taking in Wastelanders. I like how the BoS is apparently weird about sex but even that makes sense as I recall you get an assigned partner in New Vegas, which is why what's her name took off because she was for the ladies.

Owlbear Camus posted:My partner, who had hitherto not consumed any Fallout media, really enjoyed it and left our binge wanting to play one of the games. Honestly FO3 is a good start. I always have a ball wandering around the Capital Wasteland, more so than the others, and taken strictly as an exploration simulator it's... pretty good. And your partner won't have to deal with FO3's terrible original ending!

Wee Bairns posted:She really is great. She plays it perfect from simple innocence to 'poo poo-I-just cut Ben's head off', to some really emotional moments deep in. And I had no idea she was a Brit using an American accent, and also the voice of Gwynn on Star Trek: Prodigy (which is a great role, but to be fair imo her VA never stood out as spectacular, only capable). She's also fantastic as Jinx in Arcane. Purnell gets a pretty wide range to play with given Jinx's... eccentricities.

HE SHOT A CAR TO MARS WHOOO and so on and Elon bought into it hard. Then all his shuttles kept exploding, he proved on Twitter why in all his previous partnerships people ditched him as soon as possible and he made a car to rival that of Homer Simpson's own design.

Accipiter posted:I've actually never visited NMA before today despite being a Fallout fan for decades. I've of course heard of it a handful of times over the years, I've just never had a desire to be part of that kind of dedicated fan community for, well, anything. (Unless Star Trek Shitposting counts?) I remember somebody's manifesto from NMA from back in the day that said any new Fallout that is not an isometric game that looks exactly like 1/2, no graphic update whatsoever even, that was just unhinged.

I don't entirely disagree. Of course a friendlier-ish Brotherhood was one of the changes some people were big mad over when FO3 came out.
