Strange, I got the exact opposite feel from the teaser. If anything they nailed the tone of fallout in that 2 and a half minute spot. Plus the set design and costumes don’t look cheap or fake. Im cautiously optimistic.
The vault costumes definitely looked cheap, more cosplay fan film than professional production in my opinion. And the cgi on the mechs was very uncanny valley
It's probably not worth editing (vs. deleting), 'cos the video is also linked to in !games, !gaming and again in this community too (a minute after you).
The barrier mechanic is both fun and really annoying. Basically, unless you grind a resource sink item near constantly you’ll regularly be attacked by ghosts. You can shoot them (and the expedition starts you with a boltcaster) but it basically feels like all the annoying parts of sentinels cranked down to maybe a 7.
And I REALLY like the progression this time around. Near as I can tell there is no actual hyperspace (?) jumping and it is all working toward portals. So no need to hope a system has whatever world I need for whatever item I need to grind to get the next milestone. Was refreshing to realize I would need a storm world because I was being warned about storms while walking toward another objective.
Which… maybe this is not the two weeks to have a fixed progression route where everyone gets funneled to the same comm ball spam location but it wouldn’t be NMS if it didn’t make some really bad decisions.
I would hate it if the game were nothing but this. But for a nice couple evenings while I hold off on starting a spectacular CRPG until I have gotten past the point where I am drinking copious amounts of whiskey and watching C-SPAN for days on end? F’ing A.
I saw a lot of negative comments in a YouTube thread. I only played the OG once, so perhaps it’s not sacred enough to me, but what I saw looked good.
P.s. when I completed my first playthrough, it was in 2021. My experience is that the original is not as good, now—compared to modern games and storytelling—than rose-colored glasses might suggest.
What have they done to Eddie? He’s nearly unrecognizable. Why do they insist on changing the literal iconic design of the characters? Nobody was asking for that.
I’d disagree. I think the changes they’ve made with Eddie look great. He looks sickly and tired, unhinged and empty as a result of the bullying, lifestyles he’s led and the personal hell he’s experiencing.
That’s fine but he already had a very good design. And it was iconic. There was no reason to change it, other than the sake of changing it (which seems to be a reoccurring theme with this remake).
Facial mocap technology has advanced enough that the character doesnt need to look like the face actor at all, so there is no technical reason his design was changed. His voice acting is probably the best in the whole trailer, but I still much prefer the delivery of the original.
They’re trying to put way more emotion into the acting, which is going to absolutely RUIN when Mary reads her full letter to James at the end of the game. The “bad” voice acting of the original, with the mostly deadpan delivery, was vital to making the beautifully emotional delivery of the letter reading stand out and evoke more emotion from the player. It’s a special and nearly intimate moment the player feels because they just spent the whole game with barely any visible or audible emotion at all. Adding more emotion will only take away from that.
I don’t want to give away too much if you haven’t been playing Fallout since the very beginning but the NCR is not started until years after the first game when a person the vault dweller helps, organizes their village to become the New California Republic.
We don’t know when this vault opens. It hasn’t been mentioned in previous games so it might have opened and failed before anything else from series starts or it will take place many years later and we just haven’t seen the NCR and the other factions in the teasers.
True so some time after the Arroyo incident, the brotherhood would have taken vertibird tech from the enclave after the chosen one took them down for the first time.
This assumes the writers for the show give two shits about the lore. They might only use the lore as set dressing for generic post apocalyptic trash.
Yesss! I barely play counterstrike anymore, but I am excited to see this. And coming this summer? Summer is damn near over. They gotta be releasing it soon.
