it's like those people who blame darksouls when they don't know how to play
imo, from a design standpoint it is more intuitive when you can generally determine difficulty by distance from that start rather than sudden spikes. So the player can make educated guesses about what areas they want to avoid and go to.
ooooor
you tell the player directly
through NPCs
where to go
and where not to go
and leave it up to the player
to decide where to go
if they aren't ready for the challenge
they should be smart enough not to go the wrong way
but that is boring because you feel like you are on rails until you get high enough level because of kill boxes blocking the other directions
radius based scaling gives a sense of picking your own direction
well that's the point of the first quest line, it's for players who don't know how to play
the high level areas are for players who know how to play
if you don't know how to play don't go the worng way
stick to the main quest until you know what you're doing
eh, overall wouldn't call NV a masterpiece when it comes to gameplay by any length. RPG elements are there, but the gameplay is copy paste from Fallout 3.
yeah
I can agree with that
both games should be remade to use Fallout 4's gunplay and maybe also bring in its weapon customization.
no
fo4's engine needs to be fixed first
by which I mean
remake the engine because it's broken
well I mean just port gameplay, not the whole engine as I think Fallout 4's gunplay works well for the game.
yeah
I enjoyed nv's gunplay more, but it might just be my bias towards that era of 3d graphics
NV is quite stiff and clunky. Plus gun feedback is utter shit.
I love that type of shooting ngl
realistic guns just don't do it for me
clunky chunk shoota's I just enjoy more
I have no love for gun play that is slow but not tactical
yeah I don't like tactical shooters I guess
also, from this point on it should be law that all Fallout games have a jetpack mod for Power Armor.
make power armour more OP
4 made it quite OP, unless you are no legendary or Survival, Type F X-01 is near invincible.
4 did alot of terrible things to fo ngl
the first half of the main quest line and the game not making the peace ending more obvious are my only major issues, not including technical issues
over simplified dialogue with barely any nuance in any of the characters as well as shit writing everywhere also spring to mind
