I bet Emil Pagliarulo is butt hurt Todd chose the original West coast to be the setting for the show instead of his East coast.
Do we even have any indication that Bethesda gives a shit about this mess as long as they get a cut of the check? I thought that they just handed off the IP to some hack so they could make a half-assed show and get paid for it, just like with all those Netflix shows nobody cares about. I think Emil is still more butthurt about how mocked his shitty story in Starfield was and how he got ripped apart for having no central design document for anything in that game.

Cree can make good vids whenever he isnt talking about the fallout show, fallout 3 or fallout 4.
If hes talking about new vegas or a shitty mod like the frontier he can make a pretty good and entertaining video but once he starts talking about bethesda fallout its just talking in circles and hitting the same dead horses for multiple hours.
This is the same dude who already had an 8 hour video explaining why fallout 3 was bad in response to a many a true nerd video and then put out a 6 hour video just a few days ago, actual retardation.
Hard disagree, Fallout 3 is a low hanging fruit but the game and it's writing are broken on such fundamental levels that the discussion is ripe for it. We can spend hours pointing out the obvious because that's how fucking much there is to talk about, and how deep the rot goes when it infects every single facet of the game, and of course the conversation just goes on for longer when idiots try to defend this in any way since they're usually morons that go in circles and you have to correct them even more. Think: the Megaton food discussion here that ended with people defending it either getting bored of the discussion(ADHD) or shrugging their hands and coping that writing in Fallout never made sense so why should they care, not proving that even the most basic bit of worldbuilding makes any sense on any level. This is just level 1 of the discussion, the very first thing that you see when you come out of the Vault, there is an entire game's worth of problems to discuss outside of that, so yes, 6 hours it is.

This post just reeks of "Daddy made fun of something I LIKE so I have to complain!"
If you disagree with something he said, let's hear it. Go over his 6 hour video, give us bulletpoints of the most important topics you think he's full of shit on, and let's talk, oh wait that's not going to happen because nobody in this thread has an attention span for that. So he's right by default, and you can cry about it to no effect, plus he makes money off his opinions and you don't unless you make your own rebuttal video.

I find it funny he he did actually release an hour+ video of what's wrong with just the first few minutes of the TRAILER for Season 2, no doubt there is enough wrong to talk about it for that long but nobody gives a shit anymore(aside from him, of course) since everyone universally accepted that this is going to be a turd not worth watching, let alone discussing already. Looking forward to the asshurt TV show cattle crying about it on reddit.

They care enough to keep it embedded and festering in canon.
Fallout 3 is a low hanging fruit
It's been long enough that the fruit drooped down and is in the soil, rotting. All that could be said, has been said, and there's easier ways to dig a really big hole than walking in circles.

Bethesda shows they don't care about canon, and it's not even exclusive to Fallout. Look what they did to The Elder Scrolls, their own franchise. They will do whatever the hell they want, and why shouldn't they? Their fans clearly don't care, either.

"That fruit dropped down long ago", yeah well you should tell that to the dumbasses who still defend Fallout 3 then. For as long as they're around, they're going to be kept down on the ground where they belong. Fallout 3 has been a mockery for a good portion of the last 20 years and I am down for 20 years more of 6 hour videos taking that game apart. Emotions of people too stupid to properly even put them into words, let alone face the pointless task of defending this game do not matter to me, I hope they seethe very time one of those videos are made just like the mere existence of NMA still pisses them off just as much. Creetosis is doing God's work.

You are coping really hard if you genuinely think fallout 3 has that much to talk about when in reality all these multi hour videos just hit the same points over and over again with nothing new to actually talk about because everything bad about fallout 3 has been talked about.

No im not watching a 6 hour long video about fallout 3 because im not retarded enough to wanna waste 6 hours listening to shit i already know but with 4 hours of talking in circles to seem smart and cool. Its fine if you wanna ride his dick this hard but you look like an idiot saying shit like "hes right by default."

Hell i do like a lot of parts of fallout 3 (some side quests,the dlcs,the BOS actually trying to be more helpful and the internal friction that it caused) but that doesnt mean im gonna blindly defend it or disagree with every point made against fallout 3 cause im not some hardcore fanboy who needs to argue and defend the game that got me into fallout when i can instead argue about the parts of bethesda fallout i dont like/care for and talk about the parts i like cause thats how normal people enjoy things they like.
plus he makes money off his opinions and you don't unless you make your own rebuttal video.
You dont make any money either and yet here you are with your mouth full of his balls.

You won't watch the video, so how would you know? You got jack shit against Creetosis because you get filtered out by just the length of the video, let alone it's content. I could go over all his points and say what I think about them, it's not hard,, but it would clearly be wasted on someone like you. I've done this too in the past BTW, bullying Starfield fans by going over every single point in Patrician's 9 hour Starfield video as I re-watched it live to the point where they send me death threats to try and get me to stop mocking their game, but I digress.

You're a casual Fallout 3 player and you can't properly put into words why you like the game, let alone why it's bad. That's not a knock against you, 98% or so of people who played Fallout 3 don't think about it enough to have any serious thoughts about it other than "game gud cause it entertained me", but don't go thinking you belong anywhere near the other 2%, on either side of the aisle. You should stick with the TV Show tourists, they don't think too much about what they consoom either, otherwise they would stop watching that crap instantaneously.

"You don't get anything out of this", I dunno, do I? You can't buy the reaction of some of these Fallout 3 fanboys, just like you can't simply manufacture proper lolcows, that's worth it already. Plus, who says I don't make money off of what I say?
 
You won't watch the video, so how would you know?
"How do you know that shit on your plate is shit until you try it?" ass response

I would have kept that detail to myself as that isnt a flex of any kind

I like fallout 3 because it was the game that got me into fallout back when i was 12/13. I enjoyed it because it was my first bethesda open world so i have a lot of nostalgia for it and its setting. I have fond memories of multiple side quests and the dlcs but none of the main story and as i got older and learned more about fallout lore from other entries the more it made less sense.

The main story has an issue of being written for anything but an open world rpg as there is very little you can actually do to role play unless you wanna be a heartless bastard or Jesus the lone wanderer, the enclave while looking cool and JHE being a neat idea also have nothing to do in the game besides being an enemy faction for you to fight (and hiding a bobblehead you can permanently miss) plus the enclave power armor in 3 looks like shit compared to how it looks in new vegas. Nowadays i can still enjoy my time playing fallout 3 but really the high points come from stuff like point lookout (love the repeater rifles), side quests like Oasis or Trouble on the homefront and even operation anchorage (yeah im one of those people who like the cod campaign dlc that breaks the games balance due to unbreakable power armor reward.) I also really hate how fallout 3 treats power armor as nothing but "end game level armor" which isnt helped by how shit power armor looks and feels in 3/nv compared to 1/2/4/76.

I know what i dont like from fallout 3 i dont need to watch 6-8 hour videos that say shit i already know.
but don't go thinking you belong anywhere near the other 2%, on either side of the aisle. You should stick with the TV Show tourists, they don't think too much about what they consoom either, otherwise they would stop watching that crap instantaneously.
I dont think about any of that shit because i dont take "talking about video games and their wider franchise on the internet" this seriously

Well yeah, that much is obvious, there is no other Fallout 3 "fan" out there. This is why arguing with them inevitably ends up with them crying that they don't care about anything you say because the game is good IN THEIR EYES(ie muh fee fees as if you were talking to a child) and you have to explain basic concepts of storytelling and game design to them for 6 hours straight. One step above the TV Show tourists who quite literally do not know anything about the franchise and barely played any games.

Also, everything you listed as "problems" are just pointless nitpicks, you clearly don't know what you're talking about and Creetosis or any other serious Fallout fan would eat you alive. This is why this "debate" will go on for the next 20 years and then 20 years after that, cause at the end of the day pro Fallout 3 people argue like children or particularly emotional women, of course reason and logic isn't going to work here. Thank goodness for the long running times of these videos, they filter out anyone who wouldn't actually bring anything interesting to those conversations anyways.

Be serious, no one but people who already have a parasocial hatred for fallout 3 is watching those videos, people who are fans of fallout 3 are not watching multi hour videos saying why it sucks. They are made for circlejerks and nothing more.
Also, everything you listed as "problems" are just pointless nitpicks,
>ask for thoughts on fallout 3
>get my thoughts on fallout 3
>"uhh thats just pointless nitpicks"
Move those goalposts faster retard

This isnt a debate anymore, this is a bunch of people who have issues moving on past a game that came out almost 20 years ago shadowboxing the wall while acting like if they make enough 6 hour long videos covering the same points over and over about why fallout 3 and 4 are shit every fallout fan will see the light and protest for Todd Howards head on a spike. Stop trying to act like you or cree are some sort of fallout martyr just because you can clap your hands and laugh like a hyena after hearing "fallout 3 is a bad rpg because you can barely role play in it" for the 200th time in your life.
 
I wonder what the metrics for his videos are. It will be really funny if his video does better than the one Synthetic Man released, his own 10 minute Season 2 trailer video he had a melty about bombing.
There definitely has been a change in the YouTube algorithm and how it surpresses controversial or "rage bait " content as they would call it . Are they specifically targeting Synthetic Man ? Who knows, but him raging about " only " getting 50k+ views is indeed cringe as fuck ( most Youtubers can only dream of pulling those numbers in a single video).

I mean Synth could just be losing views because more and more of the people who would like his content find out about how he acts outside of his videos so they stop watching him especially if hes the kind of guy to rage over 50k views

It's like DSP having an aneurism over only receiving $140.
The people who hate Bethesda are so autistic and annoying it makes me defend them, despite agreeing with many of their points. To this fucking day they cannot stop seething about Fallout 3 and 4. Their personality is "BETHESDA BAD RUINED GAMING".
Hey now, I've expanded my seething to encompass Starfield now too!
In all seriousness, there's little else to do besides enjoy the (pardon the pun) fallout.

I think people aren't watching him because his 10 min video on the trailer is fucking pointless and mindless(Guarantee you that in that hour, Creetosis actually made some good points somewhere along the line) and because futa man actually had a little bit of his own Fallout within his community and there is just less people watching him, a lot less in fact. This is all his doing, and if he had any talent he would be evolving his content to catch the algorithm wave, not just whining about it. Dumbass actually thought the lightning would strike twice, his Season 1 video was one of his most successful and he thought he would just get the same kinds of views again without trying anything different, just like DSP expects paypigs to always pay the same amount of money if he plays the same game or does the same stupid gimmick every time and gets mad when the donations start drying up.

I got more hours in that game than you, guaranteed, and I have both good and bad things to say about it, unlike with something like Starfield. Some people can have complex thoughts and discussions about a game, you're not one of them. Simple as, then again you're a self described tourist so what kind of discussion would I even have you? Assuming you played Fallout 3 at launch, I was part of the fandom for nearly 10 years by that point, you have nothing unique to say that I haven't heard a thousand times over since the game launched. On the other hand, Creetosis might offer a new point or bring up something I might not have even thought of, not like you would know since you have no plans of watching the video. You're not an expert on anything, proclaiming that everyone else is silly or some variation of such simply takes less effort than watching a 6 hour video on youtube, a very laborious task I know. Reply to me when you actually watch that video and have something worthwhile to talk about, you clearly don't so you might learn something.
Hey now, I've expanded my seething to encompass Starfield now too!
You joke, but Starfield might be a textbook example of how NOT to make a video game. As a game design and balance autist, Starfield endlessly fascinates me since pointing out what they wrong leads to a discussion on how to fix it or how it went wrong, which could actually be used to teach upcoming game developers vital, sometimes elementary lessons. Like, say, always start with a central design document before anything else. Hell, I'm tempted to write one for my mock space RPG just to piss all over Emil even more.

I like to meme that Outer Worlds is a better game, and while that is true there is little catharsis to be had since pretty much all Starfield fandoms are dead. Believe me, I harassed a few but it's kind of pointless when there is nobody to really bully, some like Starfield General on /vg/ now has more detractors than regular posters who fight over who gets to bully the last few remaining retards keeping it alive. Where is the fun in that? No, this is why my fascination with Starfield lies with just what went wrong and how it doesn't work, sadly not a lot of people care to document cut content to help that effort and I can't be bothered to waste over 100GB to pirate it myself and datamine if I am not going to play it, so it's mostly 9 hour long video essays to go thru. Fallout 76 is kind of like this as well, but the answer is mostly simple: it's the multiplayer, stupid, all they had to do was make it offline and add NPCs. You have to dig really deep to micro analyse every flaw that game has to get anything good out of it as far as what I am looking for, meanwhile Starfield has about as many flaws as it has planet, so it's a buffet of criticism. Fallout 3 on the other hand is a really acquired taste, as it has been pointed out the main issues most people know about have been discussed for years, but they go even deeper when you look into it, so the finest center of the Fallout 3 shit sundae only lies to the most dedicated who will go out of their way to look for it, as I put it the remaining 2%.

Yep same here
Some people can have complex thoughts and discussions about a game, you're not one of them.
So can i unless you think "complex thoughts" is talking in circles about ghouls not needing food and sleep then needing food and sleep in the same game is complex.
Assuming you played Fallout 3 at launch, I was part of the fandom for nearly 10 years by that point, you have nothing unique to say that I haven't heard a thousand times over since the game launched.
I played fallout 3 in 2012 after my friend showed me it at his place then gave me his spare copy as a christmas gift that year. You also have nothing unique to say that i haven't heard because we are both drawing from the same well of reasons why 3 is bad, this is something we should agree on and yet you wanna argue over having the "right" reasons to dislike fallout 3.
On the other hand, Creetosis might offer a new point or bring up something I might not have even thought of, not like you would know since you have no plans of watching the video. You're not an expert on anything, proclaiming that everyone else is silly or some variation of such simply takes less effort than watching a 6 hour video on youtube, a very laborious task I know.
I dont need to watch it because i dont need the same points repeated, nor am i mentally damaged enough that i need to watch multi hour long videos covering a topic i already know about. If he made any good points in his 6 hour video they are probably in his 8 hour response to many a true nerd, i also have a rule against watching videos that are longer than just experiencing whatever its talking about. I never said that everyone else is silly i said that people arguing about the same reasons why fallout 3 is bad for almost 20 years is retarded, at some point you gotta move on and realize neither side is making progress so you gotta move on and let go.

Other people can repeat why fallout 3 is bad until they are blue in the face that doesn't mean i gotta support it or validate their safespace of parasocial fallout 3 hate.
Reply to me when you actually watch that video and have something worthwhile to talk about, you clearly don't so you might learn something.
Did you know Bethesda kept hyping up the white house during development but then forgot so they just made the white house an empty crater?
 
I was watching Creetosis' (yeah I know) review of Starfield and at 56:36 he provides an interesting explanation about why Courier being able to convince Lanius to retreat is not as retarded as people think.


Lanius may be a ruthless animal but he is not stupid - he faced logistical problems in his past campaigns and understands how much they can cripple an entire nation. By saying "you can't take the West without losing the East" you explain that even if Legion takes the dam they will face the same issues NCR does and risk being destroyed in the long run; its simply better for Legate to retreat and prepare better rather than to risk another embarsassment at the hands of NCR, something that Lanius, a man obsessed with achieving victory, realizes only now.
Oh, and if you as much use the word "retreat" he'll say "fuck you bitch" and fight you.

People thought that was retarded?
The fact you cant say the word retreat or else he fights you is why you need to be detailed with the why its a bad idea instead of just going "retreat and save your nation"
 
I liked Creetosis' video. It's funny to see how little the showrunners (Nolan and the troon) care about Fallout.
The T-rex facing the wrong direction, how could they let something like this happen?
