>>383842880
NV and FO3 are both bad games, NV is just a little bit better in the RPG department because the story isn't focus tested garbage.
Max amount of gameplay in both is just menu navigation and bad gunplay.
Good RPGs/RPG quest design is stuff like DO:S or runescape, gameplay merged with quest design and lore, and flavor text, with riddles, puzzles, bossfights (with variety), etc.

Ironically fallout4 has at least one puzzle in it (far harbor's guide the little digibugs thing) and mediocre gunplay so from a gameplay perspective it's better.

>>383842979
Some faggot got really triggered hard recently.
Apparently there are no objectively bad games, if you play a game for 4,000 hours it must be perfect and you can find no flaw in it, and sales = content quality, among other things.
He's also really triggered by toddposting for a completely inexplicable reason.

maybe not deus ex as I haven't given it a chance but Morrowind has a bunch of flaws, a lot of the guild quests are just fetch quests and the hiking can be a turn off especially on higher levels where you're constantly swarmed with enemies.

>>

No. I tried to play New Vegas. I fucking hated it. I tried to play that Vampire game. I hated it. I didnt even bother with that Cyka Blyat game but Deus Ex was kinda okay.. But in general /v/'s "taste" is way too fedora for me.
>>
>>383847463

I think a lot of it has to do with the kind of audience /v/ is, a lot of /v/ is people who came into gaming through Nintendo, and haven't ever played an actual RPG before so when they finally get to play some of these titles like NV and Morrowind they think they are the best games ever created because your actions effect how the world reacts to you.

NV is pretty good and its the best out of the modern Fallouts but the original 2 Fallouts are also worth playing.
>>
>>383847570
No, I didn't play it because of JE Sawyer.

No, that guy was legitimately insane, he reposted around 20-30 threads all on varied topic until some anons who were autistic enough to pick out the pattern started digging into it, connected him with all those OPs, and got him banned for spamming.
Biodrone who liked anthony burch, hated neutral routes and the witcher, with a strong hatred of obsidian.

>>
>>383848403
"muh atmosphere" is so subjective you can't be objectively wrong about it

yes, that also means it's okay if you prefer Fallout 3 in that regard
>>
>>383842880
I actually like New Vegas. However, this game does get very heavily shilled on /v/.

It is sometimes at the point of hysteria, the level of hatred Obsidian drones have for Fallout 3 and 4, both of which I fully enjoyed along with New Vegas.

It's obvious when you look at many of Fallout 4's negative reviews on steam and see them all saying to play New Vegas instead without actually listing any flaws of Fallout 4.

>>383848887
The desert is fine. And you spend more time in the cities, Strip is just one location in the Vegas - Westside, Freeside, MacCarran. And the atmosphere of the game is that of a post-postnuclear conflict, and it's comprised of how all those small and big towns react to it, of NPCs and their dispositions. It's actually a pretty uniquely bittersweet game in that regard.

Comparing Steamspy ownership numbers suggests that, on PC at least, New Vegas is more popular than Fallout 3. It's not a completely fair comparison, and it casts Fallout 3 in an unfairly poor light, but it's interesting at any rate and rather nicely dovetails with the situation on modding. It's been an accepted bit of wisdom that mods extend the lifetime and interest in a game and Fallout 3's modding is not as active.

>>383848905
I wouldn't be surprised if they were using native advertising here, Reddit, GAF, Facebook or any other such place.

I wish there were trustworthy numbers on how many boxed copies of Fallout 3 actually sold. I do know that fixing the GFWL issue on the Steam versions (regular or GOTY) requires messing with the game in such a way that makes it impossible for Steam to track your activity. It doesn't affect the ownership numbers, but I'm willing to throw a bet down that Fallout 3's CCU would reliably crack 1,000 if it were possible to track those users.

Zenimax is a private partnership. As far as I am aware they have no duty to publish such information in a publicly accessible form nor have such ever been published. They've made statements over the years but reliable hard-and-fast figures for individual game sales are very hard to come by these days. Not just for Bethesda, either. EA doesn't put out sales figures for individual games anymore. I've even checked their quarterly reports for that kind of info and come up dry.

Panels 6, 8, and 10 are the only panels worth talking about but contain outright falsehoods. If you don't know what they are you probably never played both games or didn't pay attention. 10 is an obvious Gish Gallop, rests its case on a subjective evaluation of 'feels empty'. It lies about Fallout 3's companions. It lies about New Vegas' companions - each of which comes with a quest, dialog reflecting major events, some have a particular dog in the hunt of the central conflict, all their quests with unique triggers though at least two are so obscure that I'd fault NV for being obscure about how to trip them but all of those quests have multiple outcomes that get references in the ending and have live mechanical implications once completed. Two are tied to and can affect the plot of two of the DLCs. If you don't know how the software works for these games that means they had to have the plan in place prior to the launch of the base game. There's nothing like that in Fallout 3 or 4, despite the scripting used being something Bethesda themselves created. Anyone who played the games to that degree would know all this. Its complaint about weapons is misleading in multiple ways. Firearms have multiple ammo types and perks attached which expand their role capabilities - an entire system that is completely missing in Fallout 3 and mostly missing and completely dysfunctional in Fallout 4. Again, something anyone who played the games would already know. Most of the region is powered by Hoover Dam (the thing everyone's fighting over) and the NCR sharecrop farms are not the primary supplier of food in the region. That's the tip-off that whoever made this comic never actually played New Vegas or is too wrapped up in emotional bullshit to look at facts. But let's say they were. What about scale compression? Faneuil Hall isn't a short jog away from Fenway Park unless you're The Flash. I could keep going but I think I've hit the only things that matter.

As someone who considers Fallout 3 and 4 vastly inferior to 1, 2, and New Vegas...

I agree.

I'll say something nice about Fallout 3. It has excellent map design. It's an easy thing to underrate or overlook but it's right there in your face all the time. They knew what they could get away with in that engine regarding objects on screen, number of simultaneous actors handled in memory and built everything very conscientiously within that, for the most part. New Vegas pulls it off maybe 40% of the time and that's me giving a generous estimate. The rest there's draw distance issues and massive pop-in everywhere unless the game is heavily modified. New Vegas also kept trying to push the technology in places it was really never meant to go, instead of working within what it could do. I'll also say that, despite nowadays needing aftermarket tinkering to work at all on most PCs, it's out of the box more stable otherwise than New Vegas. Scripting breaks down less often, the use of its systems isn't as ambitious but it is more practical. It doesn't really reach for the stars but it does hit what it's aiming for more often than New Vegas does. The problem, for me, is that New Vegas failing to hit its targets is a more interesting, fun, and exciting game with more replay value than Fallout 3 could ever hope to have, and it doesn't even fail all that often. When New Vegas succeeds, it does things other developers can only dream of doing.

Maybe if it was my first fallout I would have been more interested, but it's literally like a bad Fallout 3 expansion. It's so deadpan boring and dull. Nothing outside of Vegas stands out.
>>
>>383855417
Judging by how full of holes that comic is, I'm guessing it's just some dumb shitposter created that who never actually played any of those games. Scale compression is something anyone would notice from Oblivion on. The National Mall in real life is around 1/4 big as Fallout 3's entire world space. Nellis Air Force Base alone is larger than any of the world spaces Bethesda have made since Morrowind. If you were to count the test site you could easily park a hideous number of open world games' world spaces into it with comfortably expansive rooms to spare.
>>383856145
wallet check, skill check, passport, sewer, railway (disguise, rep or stealth) - the main reason most people don't seem to know about these is because by the time they get to New Vegas they've already gone through the first act and have enough money to just walk up, or go to the Atomic Wrangler and make a few bucks, or took Ringo's advice and went to Crimson Caravan and did those jobs. Frankly I think the extra options were put in almost purely to help sequence breakers get onto the strip so they could break the banks and get their implants installed as early as possible.

I was sorta the same way. I think its because 3 is just so similar to NV gameplay wise and I played 3 first. Whichever you play first will make the next one feel more boring I think, at least in terms of gameplay. Of course this is for pc, and trying to play them one after the other. If you played them on release or waited a long enough time, it would probably be okay. Most of the people here probably played NV on pc first and fell in love with it. Then tried 3.

Having Josh Sawyer (SJWyer) outed as a nu-male really ruined NV for me.

fo3 and fo4 are both bad rpgs, all bethesda games kind of are, they all focus on having a world that has a lot of stuff to look at and find but very little interaction.
it's not a huge deal since elder scrolls was always like that but it was worse for fallout because it went from a classic rpg setup with lots of dialogue to the bethesda setup with nonexistant dialogue.

At least 3 had some memorable quests and you didn't have to micromanage a million faceless npc settlements or waste time on randomly generated fluff quests.

3 is only a little under two years older than New Vegas, and it's exponentially shittier than Oblivion, which is more than years older than 3.

Agreed.

>>383871707
You don't have to micromanage settlements at all. I never did. I'd rather have randomly generated fluff quests than barely any quests at all. Even excluding the radiant quests, FO4 has many more quests than 3, which has the fewest quests by far of any modern Bethesda game by a wide margin. And at least FO4 has passable gameplay. As a shooter, FO3 is one of the worst games I've ever played.

People are suddenly realizing that NV is just Fallout 3 with slightly more tolerable writing.
>>
>>383883630

Nah, just dumb.
>>
>>383843458

Even though I liked NV the most, I also had a lot of fun with 3 and 4.

The thing I noticed, which is actually a very common sight especially with US-americans is, that if you dislike one thing, they directly assume you favor the opposite thing and vice versa.
From politics to sports to video games, it's always the same with burgertards.

I just got sucker punched by a ghostly deathclaw, and now I'm here.
Am I gonna get a brutal psychoanalysis by a shota Courier?

Better combat and quests too. Guns can actually hit people farther than 30 meters for one. Skill checks are not RNG anymore and they are used plenty of times in dialogues. The story does not distance itself from the first two games and doesn't limit itself by only namedropping one or two famous factions and characters.

It's not a perfect game, but at least it's a worthwhile sequel to the first two Fallouts, which 3 isn't.

stalker, new vegas, witcher 3

the writing is way way better though. they also reorganized many of the mechanics such as perks and skills, and there were lots and lots of skill checks in dialogue whereas f3 pretty much only had them in the wasteland survival guide quest

The constant NV threads tricked people into thinking it was a fun game and worth playing, these anti-NV threads are their revenge.

It's a fun game to discuss though.
>>
>>383884484
It was fun to discuss in 2010/11 when it was new, now it's old hat and I have no idea why people make constant threads for it. It's always the same House v NCR v Independent v Legion shitflinging.

What I hate about NV is that its too hard too mod, the weapon system is shit (revolvers don't work against brotherhood of steel because reasons) and the graphics are n64 tier.

That's why I love Skyrim.

>these anti-NV threads are their revenge.
Most of the people who make these threads were butthurt Toddboys who were also shitting up NV threads as well.

Fuck off m8.

The modding process is the exact same between the two and if you're using a high DAM low DPS weapon like a revolver and doing fuckall against the BoS you're doing something retardly wrong.

Even though I know this is a NV thread, to answer OP's question, yes actually I have.

Why are people pretending like NV hate is something new and not something that has been one of the staples of this board pretty much since New Vegas has been released? Seriously, this shit has been going on for 5+ years now. There was a massive pile of negativity raising towards New Vegas from the very start, mostly coming from the the young console-oriented generation of people who love Bethesda games (Oblivion and Fallout 3) FOR their utter stupidity, and who found New Vegas too nuanced and actually good for their liking.

Over time, this did not get any better with the growing obsessive contrarianism and arbitrary hate-boner for Obsidian that emerged around 2011 first, as well as just the sheer fact that this subject always raised a lot of emotion, making it a prime trolling and flaming material.

What are some very recommended mods for Fallout 3?

I remember one or two years ago, such threads rarely ended up in flaming autists screeching at each other

People keep saying it's amazing but I personally couldn't get into it.

Everything just felt "off".

No, because I am not a "girl gamer".

Stalker is not easy to get into, and it's a legitimate issue of the game. It CAN be very rewarding once you do get into it though. The main issue is the fact that it A) just does a very bad introduction into the context, mechanics and basic exposition. It basically just lops you into the game, hands you the shittiest weapons in the universe, barely offers any structure what so ever, and expects you to go along with no hesitation.
It also features a whole set of mechanics that are unintuitive as fuck to a new-comer that will make you confused about how the fuck does the actual combat work. Made even worse by the sheer mind-dazzling shittiness of the starting arsenal.

Once it starts to come together, it is pretty damn amazing though. I don't think there is anything really like it: the combination of some of THE best environments ever featured in an FPS game, and actually really solid core gameplay loops is something well worth experiencing, even if the games also suffer from a bunch of balancing, pacing and production issues.

Stalker games are both an acquired taste AND flawed gems. They take work to become enjoyable. But man, it is worth it.

Thesis and antithesis. First came the people who like the game, in response came the people who dislike it.

>>383842979
Thousands of (literal) children get it on sale on Steam but are too ADD to listen to character dialogue so they miss the part where you're told to follow the road North to New Vegas so instead they wander around the desert and get bored out of their own retardation. Also one anon got particularly butthurt in one of the last non-shitpost- OP NV threads

I've seen them all go one by one, /v/ turning on great game after great game after great game. The hard part

Is letting go.
