first of all, you can literally kill him the moment you meet him and take it from him, no story required. Also, there are plenty of cool outfits. The power armor is customizeable, the silver phantom stuff is good, the grognak the barbarian outfit is pretty funny. road leathers look fine. You're just desperate to hate this game, which is funny because there are so many more valid reasons to dislike it than "I can't dress up my Ken doll to look cool waaaaah."

From the looks of it, a butthurt obsidian fanboy thought comparing concept art from FO3 and the only good looking armor from FONV to the iconic vault suit's rendition in FO4 would send some kind of message.

Yeah, or maybe they'll have their main villain be this dude in his secret base out on the ocean with an army of guys in power armor. His plan would be to infect the Wasteland with a deadly virus and conquer Post-America for his evil science faction. That'd be retarded!

voice acting ruined everything.

its obvious that a majority of the budget went to it by just how shit everything else is.

a MOUNTAIN of reused assets, hell before i even wandered too far i recognized a bunch of skyrims assets and fo3 assets, and the shit story and voice acting just kept nailing this whole game down and breaking immersion.

i want to roleplay as a particular person, not just keep hearing the same old bulshit or random voiced cutscene interactions where some rando npc can walk infront of and break the conversation forcing me to go through a diolouge tree all over again, forcing me to watch a core vital npc sit there and have their hair and outfit and gun clipping through their body, having the environment spawn and despawn npcs and enemies within visisble range.

jesus fuck did they even test anything in this game?

Fragments of armour is a good idea but awfully executed, because nothing aesthetically matches besides specific suits and their matching pieces.

Morrowind worked better, you could match random shit and it usually came out looking okay to great, and you could throw a cloak over it too.

New Vegas is still the buggiest and most empty Fallout yet. It's not just because it's a desert. It has the most retarded locations with 80% of the named locations on the map being entirely pointless. At least 4 makes even shit locations useful by having a scavenging mechanic that wprks well. I'll never forget the time in NV where I spent 30 minutes trying to figure out where the pathway to a location was only to get there and find out it's just a picnic table and a trash bin in the middle of nowhere.

This, fuck. I remember how in FO3 you could find an assload of interesting locations that were unmarked. NV has more marked locations, but so many of them are literally nothing.

Which wasn't good in the first place, and they made worse by adding fucking axes to the barrel.

Also, I'll never understand why people love that laser rifle so much.

That's a mining plasma caster, originally intended for industrial manufacturing use, the technology was ported for military use. That's the earliest iteration of military plasma weaponry, as the technology progressed, plasma weapons became smaller.

And black isle made that one for Fallout 1.

It actually doesn't, in my opinion. Sure, it has goofy light bulbs all over, but it's better than adding machetes to the barrel.

Because it looks infinitely better than a long block with a shitty pistol grip with a weird angle that turns into a skeleton stock with holes placed randomly in it. The old Laser Rifle worked because though its an energy weapon the ergonomics don't change, Bethesda energy weapons just plain don't look comfortable to hold or shoulder, except the Gauss Rifle, that's fine.

It's a laser weapon, it doesn't have to look like a reskin of a conventional ammunition sniper rifle. Obsidian's best weapons are just ported real life ones with extra personality, they are not good at making original ones at all.

It looks better because it's just a normal rifle with tubes on it, since Obsidian is terrible at making original weapons.

Depends on what you consider "porting". Holorifle is good, though it's a redesign of a relatively obscure grenade launcher. Grenade machinegun is good. 12.7mm SMG is nice. 10mm SMMG is really cool, though not very useful. I like LAER more than any Beth energy weapon except for Gatling laser, except for the stock, taken from Beth laser rifle.

>And they look fucking stupid.

I wonder why people always blame voiced protagonists on diminishing dialogue choices when it's really just the devs not giving a fuck anymore. There's been many voiced games with great dialogue, and plenty of games have transitioned from voiced to non-voiced without real diminishing of the AMOUNT of choice (just the quality).

>>378554012
There is no reason for the machetes on the barrel, certainly not aesthetics, or rather serving a warped sense thereof.
>>
>>378553737
>It's a laser weapon, it doesn't have to look like a reskin of a conventional ammunition sniper rifle
If you're gonna make a weapon for the military its best to make it look and function conventionally, you're making a gun not a presentation pointer. And what should it look like a light-bulb on a stick that goes pew? And its was only featured in Fallout 1 and 2.

Those are stabilization claws. They magnetize the plasma bolt so it doesn't dissipate as it leaves the projector. The aesthetics fits the world it as built for, in game it makes sense for it to be there. Do you prefer the umpteen ligthbulbed bethesda plasma gun?

Not every game has to follow a tacticool look.
>>
>>378554342
How is it?
Its a Laser Rifle. Its a rifle that fire's lasers. By the name alone you can guess what it looks like. How else should a rifle look?

You bitch about how it looks so conventional, but you also complain about the Plasma Caster looking to different. What do you want?

Okay, I won't bullshit here. I need some help. Please bear with me as I will sound like a complete retard.

I have been a console user my whole life and want to get into more pc rpgs. I quite like jrpgs so I figured it's time to try out wrpgs. Of these Fallout 1 and 2 seem the most interesting to me.

My question is this, how should I go about getting it? I believe it's available on steam but I didn't want to make a steam account. Is it easy to just download from somewhere and load up on my toaster or should I just make a steam account?

The games should work on any old toaster. You could probably pirate them, and I'm sure another anon can send you in the right direction.

But, if you want to get them legitimately, without having to make a Steam account, they can be purchased on Gog (which is generally the better option for older PC games anyway).

It might be worth a go just once for the DLC. The Pitt is the only one with anything actually good though (fair warning, they're going to take your stuff - one of my friends was super butthurt about it at the time, whereas I enjoyed having to scrounge for gear and adapt to the new situation.

Thank you. I knew of GoG but I assumed it was just a less popular version of steam. If that version is better I'll look into it or a pirated version. My concern with a pirated version was setting it up. I use emulators and have hacked my consoles but I remember being confused as fuck trying to use dosbox. I know its not a dos game but I wasn't sure if it required something equally confusing.

You can just pirate GoG versions, they don't put DRM there and they were giving them out for free before Bethesda got the rights to sell the old versions too.

The thing is, if you pirate a GoG game it's identical to buying it because there is no DRM, and thus no crack is required.
