After spending more hours than I’m proud to admit playing both Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, I had to decide: Which was the better game?
Fallout 3 game designer Bruce Nesmith explains that the upcoming remaster should revise the game's gunplay to be more modern.
Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements
I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed
Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.
The rumoured Fallout 3 Remaster is still in development, but it will be years until fans get to play it on new platforms.
Fairly certain we all know that New Vegas isn't getting anything because it's not a Bethesda developed game.
***MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it. ***
I think the issue is that it's not a Bethesda developed game, not that MS owns both. This is more about Todd.
Yep ... Todd doesn't like getting bettered within his own IP scope.
I still think of the Elder Scrolls spin-off Obsidian pitched similar to New Vegas, but Todd rejected.
Replayed NV more than FO3 ... so I appreciate the FO3 remaster more.
For NV, I'd much prefer a sequel or a spinoff from Obsidian.
It's crazy New Vegas wasn't worked on first to launch alongside Fallout Season 2.
They could have added all the cut content they had planned but didn't have enough development time to add, possibly even expand on it a little more. For example, have the Vegas strip as one big hub over being chopped into smaller sections we have to keep loading into.
The only Fallout game I’ve played, PS3 had to keep stopping every few minutes to save. Next thing I knew the credits were rolling and I never did any side quest. I never replayed the game because of all the bugs the game had.
I've played Fallout 3 more than any game. I lost count many years ago of how many times I finished it. It was my first Platinum trophy. But yeah, it was buggy on PS3 at launch before it got properly patched.
Rebellion's Atomfall is finally out! But what happens if you can't get your hands on it yet? Luckily, here are the top 8 games like Atomfall.
Kinda reminds me of miasmata also with how the navigation works. Not to miasmata's extent but definitely in the same vein
New vEgas is so overwhelming with how much there is in the game. I think overall Fallout 3 had a better story and I love the world, but New Vegas had so much extra content, that is balances itself out. And both game, minus bugs, are fantastic.
I felt like Fallout 3 was more of a shock than New Vegas. By that I mean that Fallout 3 felt very unique at the time I played it. It did feel like Oblivion with guns but it was still different enough to feel unique. New Vegas just plays like a huge expansion pack for Fallout 3, which is somewhat disappointing for me.
It would have been nice if obsidian could of at least dumped the bugs from Fallout 3 while testing New Vegas. I shouldn't have to worry about my game freezing once every 4 hours...
FO3 is way better than NV. The iron sights does'nt make any kind of difference if your skill is'nt high enough. I will never forget that feeling of wonder my first time out of the vault and getting destroyed by a pack of raiders. In FONV I already knew what to expect and that took away that sense of wonder and made the game feel like an expansion pack. I also had less problems playing FO3 GOTY than I did in FONV maybe the GOTY edition will also work if they make one. I would pick it up if they make a GOTY and hopefully the bugs will be fixed.
Enjoyed both, can't wait for the next Fallout title, the up coming RAGE and the superb looking Elders Scrolls V: Skyrim. :)
