Why can't Obsidian fans do themselves the service of admitting that, at least, the soundtrack of F3 was much better than the soundtrack of New Vegas?

I mean, when they refuse to budge even on objectively correct, minor issues like those, they just make the rest of their points seem like blind fanboyism, regardless of how right they may be.

Op is right, the NV soundtrack is garbage.
Also NV has good mechanics but that giant sandpit gets boring really fast, especially since ther retarded devs made it up like its this perfectly portioned kiddy ride "no you cant go that way! there is big mean deathclaws there!"
literally no room to explore the game how you want, you have to do it obsidian's way

>>
>>379529876
>metagame
It's deliberate design. If you actually explore instead of bitching about not being able to take the obvious routes, you can find Primm pass to completely skip over Nipton and Mojave Outpost. You can cut through Hidden Valley (just off of NCRCF) and come out in Scorpion Gulch, which leads to Helios One. Cazadores have no DT and low limb HP in their wings, letting you clear them out with the shitton of dynamite everyone in the starting zone carries.

Every Fallout 3 song was just one mention of a word slightly relating to nuclear warfare. Half the time they were idioms. Fallout 4 was mostly the same, Wanderer was a good pick: just a big hit from the 60s. F3 should've been filled with those instead of "oh they said 'nuclear' once in an out of context way, let's use that song."

And this is coming from someone who loved F3 and didn't really like NV or 4. NV had better music overall. It just fit the theme better.

The radio songs in fallout 3 are pretty good and some are even better than the ones in NV, but I like a lot of NV radio songs too. The ambient ost is also good and atmospheric that's why some of it was used in NV. When it comes to the battle music though, all i have to say is that while it's not awful, it doesn't fit the theme of the game. The battle music sounds like generic action game music, meanwhile NV battle music is a lot more fitting.

I only liked F3 soundtrack because of "Anything Goes" and that's it but god damn that shit was my jam. Also Fallout 3 felt like it let you explore the open world with more freedom. Once you leave the vault in 20 minute tutorial it's complete freedom from there. Meanwhile in NV you're basically forced by design to take this trail that acts as a 2 hour long tutorial, which while nicely and effectively introduces you to concepts such as the NCR, Legion, Reputation System and so on get really dull after multiple playthroughs.

There OP, I gave you TWO things Fallout 3 did a better then NV. Now go back playing your objectively worse overall game you faggot you.

As for New Vegas forcing a route and getting dull on multiple playthroughs, absolute bullshit.
First playthrough, fine I agree that there is a fairly linear path - though it is still better than the atrocious birthday parties in fallout 3 - but on your second or third playthrough you can easily beeline straight to new vegas

This isn't a direct criticism of Fallout 3, but more Fallout as a franchise?

Why the fuck is a song from the 40s the "main song" of the franchise Maybe by the Ink Spots when the games exhibit characteristics akin to 1950s retro futurism? I don't mind the song itself, it just doesn't work with the direction they went with.

OP you are objectively wrong though. NV has an overall far better soundtrack; 3 has like 4 songs which are good, and only because they are catchy and not because they suit the setting.

I'm agreeing with you, I don't know how many they added exactly, but it was way too little. I'm just saying the original songs are the shit and it's good they weren't taken out, but there's no excuse for what they did.

it wasnt. new vegas' soundtrack had thematic relevance to the overarching narrative of the game, fallout 3's had no thought into it other than creating the futuristic 50s ambiance + upswing, happy music to contrast the desolation of DC. fallout 3's soundtrack is good but new vegas' is better

No not really. Deathclaws will fuck you up unless you have a high Sneak percentage and even then they still have a good chance of catching you. You can go through Black Mountain but Super Mutants will leave a toll on you as well as some high level animals.

The game really wants you to take that initial Nipton/Novac/Boulder City route.
>>
>>379532047

If you dare say my boy "Big Iron" is shit then you can fuck off out this thread right now.

You found it better? Thats how you feel. I dont? Thats how I feel. I didnt like the soundtrack/music. Didnt like the game I didnt like the smell of it.

the vast majority of the songs in new vegas' soundtrack are not about cowboys. there are a couple, maybe 3, but most of them are just country without being about cowboys. and those are so obviously tied to the themes of the game youd have to be an absolute idiot to not notice it
>>
>>379532510
This is why the soundtrack is better for me at least.

Not all the music in NV was written in the 50s, and why would it; the war didn't occur in 2077 so you had over a century to churn out music which has the 50s vibe to it. The music should fit the setting regardless of whether or not it actually existed during that time. Big band orchestra didn't exist during the middle ages, but if it works with the setting, then let it slide.

The other thing that NV does with its soundtrack is that it created in house music. Granted it's existing songs reworded to suit Fallout, but it shows the world is alive and kicking to the point where people are writing songs about their lives and surroundings.

Why can't open world game devs not just... set you loose after the intro, and just set plot hooks in varied places across the game world so you'll eventually stumble upon the main plot, regardless of where you chose to explore? Is that so hard?

Nigga, New Vegas is one of my favorite games of all times and I think 3 with it's absolute horrendous writing and RPGbutnot mechanics, but now you're just acting retarded on purpose. With 3 you can literally do the main mission from the get go with nothing really stopping while in New Vegas the game really tries to steer you into the same route over and over unless you try to bypass it in very few and specific ways.

>>
>>379533195
Well, the thing about F3 is that, in order to advance the plot, you HAVE to go to Megaton first. The game doesn't force you, but it does kind of paint a very big arrow towards there. I just think I'd appreciate it more if I could go in the opposite direction, explore to my heart's content and end up finding a clue about my dad in... I don't know, the republic of Dave or something. It would go a long way, I'd say.
>>
>>379533289
No it doesn't, you can have no levels scaling without creating literal corridors for your player's first 4 hours. Zones of higher level enemies are great, as long as they don't corral you.
>>
>>379533503
then you'll have rings of content that gets trivial as you penetrate them
>>
>>379533394
you can also just run down to where your dad is but where's the fun in that
>>
>>379533394
Technically you can go straight to Vault 112 in order to find Dad, but it's so out the way I doubt anyone is going to stumble onto it and go "ooh this is the main quest area"
>>
>>379533394
Not really, Megaton is just there to get new players adjusted but you could literally head straight to dad if you already know where he is.
>>
>>379533593
level scaled content is also trivial and invalidates needing to level up unless you need some specific stat to do something.
>>
>>379533394
Whilst that would be awesome it would also be incredibly difficult to implement, with level scaling and the like.
Especially with the retards over and Bethesda, they can't write a shitty linear story let alone one with plot triggers scattered randomly at the map for player discovery.

Good. If I skipped the intro "kill rats in this basement" quest and then I go back at level 30, and I should be able to bash the shit out of them with ease, without wondering "have these rats scaled up into giant minotaur-rats?"

I just wish people would react to you as you get more powerful, so trivial content isn't presented to you as if it's incredibly difficult. NV does this pretty badly to be honest, especially in Freeside when you can be in full power armor, and still have thugs with knifes and clubs chasing after you.
>>
>>379533593

No, why the hell would you? Imagine it as an elevation map instead, where you have bumps of concentric rings with progressively higher level content interspersed around a map, without corralling you.

>>379533602
>>379533615
>>379533619
You guys are correct, but what I'd consider more ideal is just having the main quest have several "starts" you can pick up in multiple locations, for a more varied first few hours of the game. Couldn't be that hard.

>>379533689
I agree bethesda is very shit and would likely fuck it up, but I don't think it would be terribly difficult. Just create a few different quests that point in the same direction and dot them around the wasteland.

Oh, alright I get you. Something like that would still take a bit of a budget as well as an constantly adjusting level scaling per playthrough and location.

WOW SO DEEP. This totally makes up for having half as many songs of generally lower quality than F3 had.

Bethesda doesn't even know what timeframe Fallout tries to imitate.

The soundtrack may be better, but they always choose "muh explosions and radiation haha get it guys" for a good amount of songs.

>This is a bad thing?
No? But it really isn't such a great feature that it makes up for having less songs that were less good than Fallout 3's.
>>
>>379534427
the western theme in the game and the western themes in the song are only the most superficial way they are linked. how about you think about the themes of new vegas and then actually listen to the words in the songs

I know that feel all to well. Helped Ragnar's brother take over the Nords and remove the Vaegirs, only for the brother to give Ragnar a bunch of cities, who then defected to the Vaegirs and restarted another endless conflict.

yeah well i like both as well as F4's radio songs
>>
>>379534789
Look at Call of Chernobyl if you want to see how a pure sandbox can hurt a game. There's a really big world with lots of items and npcs but there are no end goals, you do shit until you have the best gear in the game and then there's nothing to do other than restart as a new character for a slightly different version of the same thing.

not that guy but to say "fallout has always had 1920s-1940s influences" is fucking stupid and screams "WE NEVER PLAYED FALLOUT 1 AND 2 BUT WE REALLY LIKE RETRO FUTURE STUFF"

1940s, sure. There has always been a stagnant 1940s culture in fallout pre-war, that's a thing. Everyone uses vacuum tubes instead of transistors - but this never meant "everything looks like it could be from a '50s sci-fi serial and everything is like futuristic like the jetsons and if there are guns they look like guns from WW1 and stuff"

It's more nuanced than that.

FO architecture is actually inspired by 20s but then again you don't really see that in Beth Fallouts... Maybe in 4, didn't play that.

Fallout's direction involved the 50's perspective of the 1960s. It definitely has the late modernistic style, alongside of the experimental music that accompanied it.
>>
>>379536965
The city in the first game's intro, just overall some notable buildings have very art deco-ish elements. Most notable is the Oil Rig, but you can see it in other buildings occasionally. Kind of a non-canon example, but the art for canceled Fallout Online shows it much more clearly.

I mean, it makes sense, the cultural shift happened in 50s but that didn't delete the buildings and art of the preceding decades.

NV has music from fallout 1 and 2 so it's automatically WAY better than that stupid shit 3 plays all the time to make you feel "epic".

The radio was OK in 3 but NV fit the theme better.

There are exceptions. However, art Deco is more so decorative (as described in the name).

Muh Western

Even if we were to agree on that point, and I don't, fitting the theme isn't gonna make a weaker soundtrack better than a stronger one, and F3's radio songs are much better than FNV's.

>>379540073
>F3's radio songs are much better than FNV's.
not an argument :^)
>>
>>379538252
Well, the Gecko power plant is plenty decorative, so is the Oil Rig. Most surviving FO buildings are one story high, but even then you get some elaborate windows or statues on those. They weren't just simple buildings.

>>379540342

Yep, better.

>>379540073
A soundtrack is good when it fits the theme, though.

>>379540862
Okay, so I guess F3 is "muh bombs" and FNV is "Muh Cowboys". A soundtrack is mainly good if the songs are good.
