Hi
Just started playing it a few hours ago and doesn't really show what I expect in an rpg...It seem,s to be mostly a FPS with a lot of searching around,,Is it even worth playing?
I got the stategy guide but oh well.

I like a lot of playing with character attributes and this one seems limited..anyone finish this game..? :shock:

For me, first-person is out of the question unless its turn based. That means no morrowind, deus ex, system shock 2 or any other stuff. I know that some people like that but I don't. I find it confusing. When Basilisk Games comes out with their first person turn based party game, I will play it because Its turn based like the Quest and I can understand that and figure it out.

Fallout 3 I have played with a friend and he enjoyed it while I was just like meh. I'll give it this much, its ok but if you are into Fallout 1 and 2, its very tough to play because its nothing like it. The story and bad guys of Fallout 1 is simply some of the most memorable characters I have witnessed in a game.

Fallout 3's a fine game. It's just not a Fallout game. At least the VATS system means that you don't have to do (much) twitch combat. Fallout New Vegas has a much more Fallout-esque feel, but the VATS system was nerfed to the point where I wasn't able to play it.
