2 player coop mode would be nice though and as far as I'm concerned would fit into the setting. Not that junk that is MP in DA:I or ME:3, etc. So it can work but only if they keep it small and limited to coop.
The key word.might
Too may multiplayer games out there in my opinion. Multiplayer will add nothing good to Fallout - the game series is about a lone wanderer - with a dog or companion, but I can't see it working in multiplayer mode.
They made FO first-person to attract a wider audience. They will likewise add multiplayer. Maybe even online capacity (hey it happened with TES).
The way it works is grab a famous IP and make profit off its reputation. They really are no more than parasites.
Considering how much I loved exploring the world of FO3, I'd love me some more parasitical action
Heh, I loved FO3. It's only that I view it somewhat as a standalone. It's a great, enjoyable RPG, just not really the same franchise for me.
However, if someone took System Shock and turned it into an isometric game with turn-based combat, I would most likely be mighty pissed
Me too. But if done properly, it wouldn't have to be a bad RPG. Just as FO3 isn't. It's only that the purist part of the fanbase would view that as a discontinuation of the series.
They let their emotional desire to see what they love continue - largely untouched - cloud their vision of what the game actually is.
Nicely put (and I'd agree) however while I do see FO3 for what it truly is, a respectable RPG in its own right, I still can't accept it as a part of the same family. For me it's just Bethesda's Fallout.
