Elmofongo: Fallout should stay an Isometric turned based RPG not baby's first STALKER game.

Wasteland is just not is interesting and memorable as Fallout :P
Um, aside from radiation and fpp... theres little similarity between Fallout (3 onwards) and the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series)

Sachys: I think it'll be four years of community patches, dlcs, dlcs becomeing a complete or "GOTY" collection and me getting a better income to buy a better pc before it hits 75% off before I can even consider it.

But then... maybe then... I might be dead. :(

Crewdroog: that is a really sad story :(
you can always donate a better income and / or a better pc to make it a happier one!

If anything the all 3 STALKER games blow Fallout 3, New Vegas, and this 4 out of the water in terms of being a Post-Apacolypse Survival RPG.

no. turn-based games are the worst (as i replied in the other thread :) ). In a game of survival, stopping during a fight and spending however long you want to decide what to do is utter nonsense. React quick or die. I also HATE VATs by the way.

LOL for like two seconds I got super pissed. hahahahahaa <3

casual my ass! :) you are turn-based b/c you just can't think on your feet and you are too slow. oh wait this makes me think of a very funny sketch that totally sums up what I think turn-based is:

whitest kids u know: Polite War

The turn based combat in Fallout, Fallout 2 and Fallout 3 is still fun though because it is nice to be able to take the time to decide whether or not, you want to shoot someone in the groin or in the head((in a video game, of course). :)

yeah that's why they put VATs in the new fallouts. however, it's just not my thing. it annoys me like musicals annoy me. People just don't spontaneously break into song and choreographed dance (ok, well flash mobs maybe).

Bc of turn-based combat, I could not play the first fallouts. I tried, but I just couldn't.

You can play Fallout Tactics. There is a real time combat option for that game.

Never used VATS on either F3 or Vegas, just felt like cheating. Just play it as a FPS. That being said, they were pretty average. I expect F4 will be Skyrim with guns, and that was pretty bland, empty space, short naff storyline, but great for modding, those people who provide the game, and this will be over DRM'd, paid mods, etc.

If you do, make sure and say words like "pop" a lot. =)

i totally agree with you on vats. I always play it as a fps. I really hope you are wrong, and that has better content than Skyrim. I often compared that game to a pretty, but vapid girl/guy. Fun to look at, but just no content.
EDIT: Mind you, I've also played hundreds of hours of that game, so yeah, still liked it.

Also, b/c it is bethesda, I am not expecting some great main storyline. I will probably pretty much ignore that until i start running out of things to do. I like to just wander around and find random things and quests and steal everything that isn't nailed down.

ok everytime I see a nuka cola i will say "oh look, maybe i'll go get a pop!" in my horrible accent. :)

oh, and totally random, but i was watching old family guys and totally came across the moose.

*ponders* fine, I will send them via trebuchet! I will also add a cow to ensure they arrive safely. And a cat to keep the cow company.

Complaining about turn based combat in an RPG is like complaining about water being wet. Have you even played a proper tabletop RPG?

In space water isn't wet.
