I didn't pay attention to character building desu, I only care about the actual gameplay UI is exactly the same One noted improvement is that you can now push NPCs that are in the way of something so you don't get stuck and are unable to do anything but enter combat
Jason Thomas
Literally nothing you said is true. Way to go.
Aiden Brooks
Then why don't you point out one of them? Should be an easy task if all of them are false.

The game doesn't end if you dont find the waterchip. You can roleplay as a vault dweller. Every skill has a use. Every perk does something. You dont need a 10 in AGI. There is more options in combat than to fire a gun. Etc. Etc.
It's like you went out of your way to be wrong about everything.
Christopher Rogers
You dont need to play a combat build, so in fact you can roleplay with SPECIAL stats. For example, in the radscorpion caves in shady sands you can choose to use a bomb to simply collapse the caves as opposed to fighting the scorpions. Also you dont have to fight the master, theres other ways like persuading him or just blowing up the vault hes in
>You can roleplay as a vault dweller Yeah, that's the only thing you can roleplay as. Reading comprehension is a value. >Every skill has a use Hardly. Half of them are completely useless (outdoorsman, trap) while others are borderline essential (big guns, energy weapons) >Every perk does something But not something very useful. New Vegas has perks that each have unique value. Only a handful of the Fallout 1 perks are actually valuable to your playthrough. >You dont need a 10 in AGI Perhaps if you don't mind your playthrough being a slog. >There is more options in combat than to fire a gun Yeah you can punch people in the same way you fire a gun. Epic!
You faggots consistently encouraged this boomer / zoomer memeposting, and this is your reward. Absolute idiots slowly taking over the fucking board.
Gavin Butler
Posting your full sentence and tagging on a snarky quip doesn't change the context. You claimed there is no room for roleplaying. There is.
There is also more than one faction to join (brotherhood of steel, raiders, fargo traders, regulators, thieves guild, etc etc). You literally don't know anything about this game.
>NOOOOOO YOU CAN'T HAVE SET RULERINOS AND STARTERINOS, EVERY "RPG" MUST BE A HECKIN DIRECTIONLESS SANDBOX WITH CRAFTING AND SURVIVAL MECHANICS
Nicholas Rogers
>enemies don't drop armour when they die because that would make the game too easy >...except these dozen bandits whose armour will give you enough armour to trivialise money for the rest of the game lmao what were they thinking?
Carson Collins
There is no room for roleplaying beyond playing as a Vault Dweller. There is no way that the OP could have said this more clearly. Trying to alter the meaning of this sentence into something that fits your argument only shows how delusional and desperate you are.
Doesn't matter how many factions you can join if you're restricted to being a Vault Dweller. You can't even turn against your Vault unless you want to end the game early by joining the Unity.
NOOOOOOOOOO YOU CAN'T HOLD OLD GAMES TO THE SAME STANDARDS THAT WE INCESSANTLY HOLD NEW GAMES EVEN THOUGH WE USE THOSE OLD GAMES TO SHITPOST THE NEW ONES AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
>forced to do the water chip quest and then kill the super mutants, if you don't do it quick enough the game ends I hate timers, Jesus fucking Christ I fucking HATE timers in games. It is even worse in this one as it forces you to do its quests first, in an open world full of other things to do.
Well, yes. Old game is in fact good. But there's no need to be a hysterical anime girl about it.
Connor Miller
The classic Fallouts are decent, but they're both inferior to New Vegas.
Benjamin Cruz
please keep copypasta trash to your autism circlejerks on /vg/

you sound like an absolute retard
Carson Bailey
you're min/maxing a SP RPG children's toy, you were wrong before your very first keystroke
Jace Long
>There is no room for roleplaying beyond playing as a Vault Dweller Thats retarded, not all vault dwellers are the same. Some are smart and evil, others are retarded and good etc. In new vegas there is no room for roleplaying beyond playing as a courier. See how retarded that sounds?
