2024 UPDATE: Since people still allege that Todd Howard has contempt for New Vegas (especially because of the whole TV Show canon thing) he was asked again on his opinion on the matter. I personally decided to join the many psychologists and journalists that say Todd absolutely resents New Vegas and made an updated video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hdKFhKmer5jZkn0.htmlsi=3MXl3zhQzbygne_T

@@clee5653 The Khan's and Legion are underdeveloped too, sadly. A real shame. But I'm currently replaying both with the TTW mod and most of FO3 quests seem pretty hollow compared to New Vegas though. Both games couldve been done better with more time imo regardless of direction
@clee56538 ай бұрын
@@Kipp274 To be fair, FO3 has one main questline with no branching, two factions (the Enclave, firstly depicted by their radio propaganda and shoot-on-sight soldiers, later Raven Rock, and the BoS, portrayed by characters in the main quest). That's not a lot of work, linear and kinda minimalist. So what Bethesda did to flush out Capital Wasteland is to put whacky things similar to what you have in FO1&2 in the map (Republic of Dave, Tenpenny Tower, etc.). These things don't intertwined, they don't all serve the same moral idea and they don't help you decide what path you are taking in the game. FNV has all of these. So if you ask me how to improve upon FO3, I literally have no idea except to rework the main quest. Look, between these two games, I prefer FNV, but I don't blame Bethesda for taking this approach, after all, they had have to spend extra time to figure out how to adapt Fallout to 3D. Heck, after FO4 I miss FO3 because there are so much less to do in the Commonwealth except being Preston Garvey's errand boy.

@@TjBaxy The strip has power, because of the hoover dam. The NCR has established some level of order, as has caesar's legion, in its own messed up way. Everything that could be considered "Progress" in rebuilding had realistic reasons why it was possible. Fallout 4, who cares if they had a more "organized government". The Enclave in 3 and the House in NV felt like real entities that had clawed and fought for the little bit of control they have. I've played all 3 of the games in question, and Fallout 3 and NV created a much more cohesive world and atmosphere, in my opinion. The things that are available and that people have built in F4, like Diamond City, do not feel as grounded in the realities of the world, and they feel more like just something cool looking the Dev's wanted to make regardless of the realities. Go walk around in fallout 4, you will see some person's "home" that they have lived in for years supposedly, trash everywhere, never took the time to board 1 fucking window, living all by themselves sleeping in there and apparently never got jumped in the middle of the night. Then go walk around new vegas and find someone's home. People's windows are boarded up. Folks don't typicially stay alone, they live in a settlement. If they do live alone, they usually have done some kind of prep to make it hard for invaders. Just my thoughts anyway

The new Vegas fans are insane, new vagas is good but has allot of glaring issues you people gloss over , and fallout 3 is a fantastic game as-well from the random encounters, hidden gems, amazing vaults, side quests radio stations adding in vats, locations plenty of dynamic choices that arnt just told to you and probably the best dlc ive seen in a game so theres allot to like, but oh no, Bethesda bad. Only good vs evil choice, every side quest isn’t connected to the main quest.

I do wish Bethesda had adopted certain design principles from NV for FO4 and Starfield: * Essentially no unkillable NPCs. * High Roleplay-ability. Eg you can play as a murderhobo, pacifist, do-gooder or cynic, and concentrate on skills from scientist to diplomat to gunslinger to cannibal. * Much freedom of choice, where your choices actually have consequences. This made possible by a fairly loose Main Story, eg just a historical confluence that all your actions weigh in on and a nice faction system, and presenting choices that are not clearly divided into right and wrong. FNV also used the gimmick of Yes Man to avoid you soft locking yourself into an incompletable state. IMO "Starfield New Vegas" could be a really great game. Starfield has lots of decent subsystems and the ship building/ship home would work very well with a larger choice of faction alliances, and diverse companions/crew all reflecting your character. FNV is not the be-all end-all. I think these concepts could be carried much further in a universe the size of SF. In fact you could layer separate FNV style games into the same game. The core game you end up playing could be decided as you go.

I think Bethesda's side quests are the most memorable parts of their games and the ones in New Vegas don't really go anywhere or have a strong resolution. You could take the main questline out of the other Elder Scrolls and Fallout games and I think the games would still be fun to play. New Vegas I think relies too much on the eventual battle at Hoover Dam to drive all the faction encounters. Sure it makes sense story wise but it just isn't as fun as the other games for me.
