How the hell does the Republic of Dave exist?
Click to expand...
based on where annandale and bethesda is on the map technically that small distance is like a dozen miles. so thats why the republic of dave can exist, he's no where near the fucking place.

Fallout 3 map was increased in size since the devs thought it was too small.

and they're sort of right. IIRC the beltway was supposed to be a massive wall around the map, and annadale near the lowest left of the map, so in theory the entirety of the game took place in like 100 square miles, not exactly big compared to 2's literally all of northern california and parts of nevada.

EDIT: turns out that was some bullshit someone said on a forum. they just increased the map by 50% meaning instead of 14x14 it was now 17x17, which doesn't make it make more sense overall.

That one actually isn't too bad: The fungus explains their food, they have water, and due to their self sufficient nature the kids can take care of themselves out in the wasteland. Their cave is well hidden away to protect them from dangers, but then again, if Paradise Falls knows where they're from(since they send a slaver to wait outside when you kidnap that little girl), why didn't they just storm the town and get all the kids? I guess you could say this for every small "settlement" like this, there is no answer because Fallout 3 is Oblivion with guns

The settlements are very small representations of how many people live there, due to engine limitations we only see a handful of people, but for example little lamplight is like the cave full of children (like 200) depicted in Mad Max... Same with Megaton or Rivetcity, fully populated settlements that with their own economy, resources and trading.

FNV does a better job at showcasing society rebuilding like a quarry or the irrigation system for farms and brahmin.

Also yes the walk between areas in Fallout is very barren. Not even a fun , world-building type of barren, just landscape.

It helps the atmosphere. However I find that I can't walk more than 2 minutes with someone shooting at someone (or at me). It breaks immersion where you are in the post apocalypse and every single time you go out you get attacked by Sentry Bots or raiders.

Is there any mod for fallout 3 like Fallout: Dust?

Fallout 3 modding scene is absolutely dog shit. Best mods are for FNV.

I like this about Capital Wasteland: It's the Africa equivalent of the post-nuclear America, where you can't walk 2 feet without some tribal warlord or a wild animal that wants to kill you. Add feral zombies and super mutants as well as radiation into the mix and you wonder why the only settlements that survived are those with good protection like Megaton and Rivet City or ones hidden away like The Underworld or Little Lamplight. I like this bit of worldbuilding, altho I bet it's unintentional considering what kind of hack the writer is.
I dunno how I feel about them reusing this idea for Commonwealth. Sure, the region is as much of a hellhole, but at least there is farms and more drinking water here. Why are there only two or three "cities" then? I guess it's because Todd wanted people to make their OWN cities using the new Settlement feature! Fuck right off.

Tom Howard has such an ego on him that he won't let Leonard bernardsky Tim kaine Chris avalone who all aren't doing anything right now to work on a fallout game you know why because it would be a masterpiece and it would prove that Todd doesn't know what he's doing when it comes to fallout and he never has and it would show the whole world that he's a massive hack

Just a reminder that this guy supported the Burn Loot Murder riots of 2020
He's also been known to shill various games in a way that SkillUp and friends do, with his main "content" literally just browsing twitter for something to make a video on. He's yet another clickbait "news" channel like YoungYea, take everything he says with a grain of salt.

The first week of the show's airing was a battlefield on /fog/, between actual fans of Fallout and normalfags/Bethesda fans/paid shills. After that, you could tell that everybody involved stopped caring about it, aside from content creators who creamed themselves at how much of a good product it is and how lore friendly it is and how they can't wait for Season 2. On /fog/, this show only got mentioned later when lore spergery comes around, and there is a few people there left that genuinely get angry when it and Fallout 76 are laughed as fanfiction.
That's really the only legacy this show will have to me and I can't see Season 2 changing that. If anything, inclusion of Vegas will make people go back to playing the actual game, and be shocked at how different it is compared to Bethesda slop.
Remember how when the TV show aired, Fallout 4 had this awful update that broke all the mods and exposed tens of thousands of people to incompetency of Bethesda? I see this happening again, except for the eternal argument of "is New Vegas better than Fallout 3/4?". There is only so many times the LGBT friendly Bethesda fans can call it "Fallout Troon Vegas" before they have to face facts that their favorite games are either not RPGs, or barely count as such, not to mention all the other flaws their games have. Now imagine a new wave of normals having to face those facts, too.

The funniest part is that the TV show wouldn't be as hated as it is now by actual Fallout fans if they just set the story to be anywhere else except the West Coast. If it wasn't for that I'm pretty sure actual fans would've treated the show as an odd yet inoffensive commodity.

they had the entirety of the East Coast and the fly over sates but for some reason, they HAD to have it set on the West Coast. this was a clear power move from bethesda (Todd) to hijack the entire series for themselves.

Is there a list of mods that fix New Vegas on PC? I have installed a bunch of them and the game still crashes randomly or the framerate dips and the buildings start flickering.

Maximus's character unironically said "it wasnt me but is it wrong to say Im glad it happened?" something along the lines and the guy that is interrogating him has to legit answer with a straight face "uhh...yes." with a silent "you psychopath".

And we are expected to legit like this character?

Also can I just say that anyone that begins to throw the "its fictional" or even "its a series about space wizards monks" equivalents should be instantly necked dismissed in any argument? You are basically saying that shit doesnt need to make sense because "its fictional nonsense", thats the argument of tourists who never cared about this franchise and what it stands for.

Not even Synthetic Man had that much to say. But then again, his whole review's point wasnt an indepth review but mostly expose the fact that this series might as well be the nail in the coffin for this franchise's credibility and self respect and that any nigger that was running to its defense was either delusional, a normie tourist or a shill

Why ask questions of which you already know the answer to?
 
Seems new Vegas's fallout 2 remake is chugging along.
