Honestly I really wanted to love Fallout 3. I was so excited when it was out, and I tried very hard to get into the game. But it was so shallow compared to the originals. And so short.
It's also possible that once you consumed a lot of excellent products you become picky. We are living on a creative golden age after all. And it's hard to come out with something new, so much have been done.
Plenty of things are probably "good enough", but we have had fantastic stuff already, so it's meh to go back. I'm sure if I'm honest, I can fan many so-so titled I enjoyed as a kid because they were new to me.
- Lewton 9y agoDid you ever play New Vegas? It got a lot closer to the magic of fallout 1+2
- sametmax 9y agoNope, but I've been told the same about to many things I have a hard time believing advices on modern games now.
- Lewton 9y agoWell, New Vegas had a few people from the original fallout working on it afaik. And it's made by Obsidian, who made the excellent Pillars of Eternity which you already praised :)
- sametmax 9y agoRaising my hopes. Careful. I know your username.
- mywittyname 9y agoNV is widely considered to be the best neo Fallout. Additionally, people seem to prefer either FO3 or NV, but rarely both. So if you found FO3 lacking (as I did), then it's likely you'll enjoy NV. With the caveat that it's a nine year old game at this point.
