That's why I love Fallout more
TheMightyMoto
I like the end.
IwishIwasNeverBorn
Hello 9gag !
Merisiel
Needs another row about how crappy the engine and UI are in both games.
kappademonn
Some reason I get the feeling the artist likes fallout 4 more
ignimbrite
TES Lore > FO Lore
DancingRussianMan
FALLOUT 4 IS NOT A FALLOUT GAME. GET OUT.
DapperBlook
Actually, the hero wasn't just some guy... He was a Great War veteran, which is pretty huge. Theres a lot of lore bits.
NexiKuro
Pretty sure she was just a lawyer dude.
DapperBlook
What? No! Have you even watched the opening intro? It is literally him rehearsing his speech for his fellow veterans at the meeting hall!
NexiKuro
You haven't rolled a female character have you?
v
DapperBlook
Nope. I was talking about the hero in the picture.
Cheomesh
Both games mostly raved over by newcomers to the series, too.
surprisemotherfuckers
I tried Oblivion, good game but it never really drew me in because i couldn't see for shit in the sewer which turned me off unfortunately
Cheomesh
As far as I'm concerned that's still fairly new, lol (don't know what you're on about w/ the sewer though)
surprisemotherfuckers
at the beginning of the game, the sewer after the emperor dies, i spent 2 hours down there because i couldn't find a torch and it made 1/2
surprisemotherfuckers
it hard to keep going after all the frustration. i did find martin but i was tired of it, After that i picked up FO3 and never went back2/2
IWishMyParentsLeaveAlreadySoThatICanStartMasturbating
The hero in fallout can be a girl too!!! *triggering intensifies*
AgressorBunx
Are saying you can't call a chick dude? Triggered
Dankdawg69
Wot?
RomaFrozenPizzas
I like the fan theory that Fallout takes place before the Elder Scrolls events. Radiation explains the humanoid lizards and cats.
Cheomesh
Except that makes literally no sense at all.
RomaFrozenPizzas
There is a Ninroot easter egg in Fallout 4, which would lead one to believe the games take place in the same universe.
Cheomesh
That's not at all what Easter Eggs are.Shit,Duke Nukem 3D references Doom but they're not the same 'verse.
NerdN1
The difference between a high fantasy setting and a post-apocalyptic setting.
thedissident
Been meaning to continue FO4 again, such a fun but tedious game, which I guess is what makes it fun.
Sumguy88
Gatling laser with wounding. No death claw gettin near you.
ILoveDogsMoreThanILoveMostPeople
Try a Two shot MIRV Launcher
Freakayou
Found a Mini-gun with Exploding rounds, nothing lives very long.
CasualAtlas
Explosive Combat Shotgun. You're a bigger danger to yourself than your enemies are to you.

Six stealth shots from the Deliverer

New vegas: THE FUCKING MAILMAN
ArchAngelSamael
I feel so left out in video game posts; haven't owned a console since the ps2.
HadMeSomeChickens
Well, that's good, since these are both better on PC.
VibratingNipples
Both are playable on PC, so there is no excuses
IronicUsername
Why not? Just not into 'em anymore?
ArchAngelSamael
Just don't have the free time like I used to when I was a young lad :(
IronicUsername
Yeah, that'll do it lol.
AGiantTransWoman
IMO Fallout 4 blows dick as a Fallout game. Decent game to play though.
DapperBlook
"Oh, Reginald! I DISAGREE!" *speeds off*
AnotherGoodBook
This is the first time I have agreed with AGiantFaggot.
Polemik
I cant bare to play it because the ancient, clunky god damn engine bothered me already back when Skyrim came out and now it's just ubearable
NexiKuro
The lack of vehicles was a deal breaker for me, made it kind of power armor of bust. I'd love someone nabbing SC's engine and doing it right
surprisemotherfuckers
The Prydwen represents everything i don't like about the game, an imposing promise of badass from a distance but up close its a generic 1/?
surprisemotherfuckers
shooting platform with just barely rounded out characters who act like i don't know where they came from and think that makes them better2/?
surprisemotherfuckers
which is only made worse by the fact that the Prydwen was made from the harvested remnants of rivet city who just left DC to rot 3/3
DapperBlook
"Oh, Reginald! I DISAGREE!" *speeds off*
BenelopePitStop
Nice reference, well made
DapperBlook
Thank you.
IHateyouIfyouremoreattractivethanme
I swear they spent more time on coddsworth being able to say your name than the rest of the game, gimmicky shit.
AGiantTransWoman
Yep. 90% of 4's sales are because of the Power Armor / armor+wep modding / Codsworth gimmicks.
barzilla1911
And Codsworth can't even say my name unless I change the spelling of it.
IHateyouIfyouremoreattractivethanme
Same, my name is spelt with a k instead of a c and the game can't say that, the fuck, I programmed a more flexible text recognizer in a day.
barzilla1911
I'll be damned if I misspell my name for a robot butler.
GreedyJungle
Agreed. But it's still fun. Just more of an FPS than a RPG
AGiantTransWoman
Exactly. Fun game, yeah, but it's the shittiest Fallout game to come out so far, imo.
GreedyJungle
Can't argue with that
KevynDietz
You clearly don't remember the Fallout game on PS2.
AGiantTransWoman
I dunno, it was shitty but it wasn't this shitty. Played shitty but it tried to at least somewhat hold itself to the source materiel.
AGiantTransWoman
Fallout 4 ignores so much lore from the previous games and even ignores it's own lore half the time. I could rant an ear off about why I h8.
Florky
Yah it feels like they noticed how one of the main things people complained about in fo3 and NV as the gun play But it lost lost of rpg bits
GreedyJungle
I'd take back their new combat system for being able to say some crazy things in dialogue again. Terrifying presence was the best.
yowalkonthefaceofshreck
I think it gains a huge amount of value if you play survival with a few choice mods.
GreedyJungle
I'd take back their new combat system for being able to say some crazy things in dialogue again. Terrifying presence was the best.
AGiantTransWoman
[ Sarcasm ]
Florky
What I'm hoping is that they had to give up them to make the combat system but will in the next game have better rpg elements.
GreedyJungle
I hope so too. And bring the old nuka cola machines back
Cheomesh
None of the spinoffs by Bethsoft were good; New Vegas was OK I guess but eh.
AGiantTransWoman
NV was Obsidian going "Well they made a better game engine, why not make our stories work in it?" and it was amazing. Also what spinoffs?
AGiantTransWoman
3 and 4? They're really main players just set in a different area - 3 at least follows most of the old games' lore, even Harold is in game
AGiantTransWoman
4 blows massive penis however, and ignores even it's own lore, which ignores previous games' lore.
Cheomesh
3 pays some lip service to the lore,but goons it up with the FEV being a vault thing.It wasn't.Program was shut down before the war.1/
milkzhakes
deathclaws are super easy in FO4, the real dangerous enemies are the assaultrons that can go camo.
FutureHylian
And explode right after death. But only sometimes
BojanglesTheFlyingCar
Like by the junk yard and then run into the children of the atom camp and RUN
dandydust
assaultrons make me poop my pants, but so do alpha & matriarch deathclaws. and super mutant behemoths. esp the latter 3 coming at u at once
skindredzakuska
Assaultrons and really annoying motherfuckers.
anywaysthisoneatemice
I have not seen one yet nor even considered it. Oh god no...
CocktailGaming
Legendary Enraged Fog Crawler... You're fucked.
DidYouKnowThatCashewsComeFromAFruit
I learned that the hard way here https://youtu.be/kMskVy7Lu2M
cpowdiwan
Dude, you were robbed.
DidYouKnowThatCashewsComeFromAFruit
I was dying laughing when it happened though
Polemik
I never really got the deathclaw memes. They arent particularly difficult in any fallout game.
scifiman027
I can see that if you're high enough level and have the right weapons. I never seemed to and always got wasted. More in NV than FO4 though
semtex94
Go north rather than east from goodsprings in NV and tell me how it went.
robotsanta77
I've always been annoyed the most by the radscorpio s.
TheBlueFantastic
Fuck anything that can go invisible. Can't even use VATS on that
csillagvihar
I dunno, that Savage Deathclaw in the Museum of Wtihcraft took 2 mini nukes and a bottlecap mine in the face before it dropped.
Chrichelle
I just played that part yesterday, it scared the shit out of me...
Tranchec
Queen mirelurks
Blze001
As someone who encountered a Legendary Chameleon Alpha Deathclaw in the glowing sea: what is left if my body questions your statement.
Sinodio
weirdly when i met him i just shredded through him like butter
Broodgar
JOKES ON THE DEATHCLAW! I SANK ALL MY PIONTS INTO POWER ARMOR AND FLEE THE FUCK AWAY!
michealikruhara0110
You kill a deathclaw within the first like 30 minutes using a free set of power armor. Fallout is not what it used to be.
CoffeeyCore
Yep. I remember first time NV. "Fuck this, shortcut." Never going near Sloan again..
milkzhakes
i remember when i first ran into my first chamelon deathclaw in FO4 witch museum at level 42, good times & probably one of the scariests one
BlueDsc
I remember my first time. I shit my pants.
double0jesus
My assault shotgun with exploding rounds says otherwise.
gayoatmeal
Well they're in my opinion a lot more serious of a threat in survival mode cause they're a pretty serious bullet soak
milkzhakes
survival is the way i play, at levels 1-30 they are the worst, but afterwards and depending on your build they become easy, shotties help.
The1Freeman
New Vegas deathclaws have been the worst up to this point
BoatswainsMate
You and boon gotta sit your ass at the top of the conveyor belt in the query. Snipe the fuck of out them and lay mines around you.
BoatswainsMate
Quarry* sorry, long day.
The1Freeman
I actually just waited til I was super overpowered and then got the anti-material rifle and just walked them down.
rpmerf
That's my strategy, except I roll solo. Hands loads and psycho.
BoatswainsMate
Oh man. I might go put new Vegas in now and load up a save and try it
AlduinWorldEater
Isn't there a mine facility or something where they're everywhere. Or am I mixing up 3/NV? Anyway, fuck that place.
rpmerf
Sneak and snipe. Psycho and hand loads helps
BRM15EOL
There's one in both. The quarry in NV and Old Olney in 3
muskoxmuskets
Unmarked location near the eastern edge of the map, Deathclaw Promontory. Coupla suits of remnants power armor and a buttload of deathclaws.
The1Freeman
That's the quarry. That mission is intense
scifiman027
I remember this one area where there like three of them. I still have nightmares.
The1Freeman
Clearing the quarry
scifiman027
I think that's the one. Screw that place!
lesteros
Quarry had a whole family though. Still it was doable with preparation. But the ones in a cave? Deathclaws in closed quarters. Jesus
AnotherGoodBook
Yes.
ianrl337
And we love them both
Cheomesh
I don't. I feel like the fandom for both is largely rooted in people just recently coming to each franchise.
ianrl337
A lot of it is. I'm coming from starting with Fallout 1 and Daggerfall. I am a bit biased though. Fallout is my third favorite series ever.
Cheomesh
Same! So did you like FO1 or 2 better?
ianrl337
Fallout 2. It just seemed like a more complete game. Being from southern Oregon there was a bit of nostalgia there though.
Cheomesh
Yeah FO2 had the most hours from me.Using real world weapons was a little weird but I liked the lack of time limit and all the side quests
surprisemotherfuckers
I came in from Fallout 3 and Skyrim (although i tried oblivion a little), I've wanting to try morrowind and the original fallouts eventually
Cheomesh
If you're anything like just about everyone else I've met like you, you will not like them.
surprisemotherfuckers
I've been trying more isometric rpgs recently and have liked them so i'm inching towards it
Cheomesh
Best of luck, then! I grew up on Diablo 1 and 2 as well as the Fallout series (and Baulder's Gate, Neverwinter NIghts, etc) so do explore!
MrPredator
no... no... no. Skyrim is great, but FO4 dropped the ball.
StonerCatJay
Skyrim on PC with mods is great, but Fallout 4 on PS4 is still pretty good.
StonerCatJay
Please note that these are the first ES and FO games I've played, so I can't compare them to previous games yet.
surprisemotherfuckers
You gotta try them although keep in mind they are very clunky compared to their successors but they definitely overcome their faults
StonerCatJay
Yeah, I bought and started playing Oblivion but I'm having laptop issues so I haven't been able to play it.
ianrl337
Maybe a bit, but I think you are talking about the difference between a great game, and a legendary game.
surprisemotherfuckers
at best FO4 is good game but they definitely dropped the ball with it because of such stupid decisions that even mods can't fix for them
ianrl337
I see your point, but their settlement system was a really huge jump. Hopefully Fallout 5 improves it.
MrPredator
Played Skyrim, played FO3, FO:NV, and FO4. FO4 dropped the ball, imho, in terms of story, atmosphere, and size.
