Sure there is fable 2, but Ive played fable 1 and wasn't really feeling it back then. There is mirrors edge...but that looks like a 1 trick pony. But I've noticed Fallout 3 is getting a lot of great praise from reviewers and members of this site. However, by watching videos, reading the reviews I can't tell if this game is for me. I've never played anything like this before. So my question is this... Will I like this game? Help me out here... Some things to consider about my tastes: -I hated the 2 hours i spent playing oblivion and this comes from same developer if im not mistaking -I dont do turn based combat that most RPGs require, no thanks. -Im looking for a great story and engaging gameplay -Not looking for a game where i have to do stupid tasks to level up...i cant stand that -Hoping to finish a game in 20-30 hours...anything longer and I don't think I will keep on playing
Thanks for your help |
Why exactly did you have Oblivion? Fallout is very very similar in a great many ways however it's a LOT more user friendly, is much more plot driven and the combat is a lot more enjoyable. Still the world environment (go anywere) lots of empty space, NPC interaction and combat setup are all the same.
To answer your other questions it's not turned based however the VATS combat system (way to get easy criticals) acts like turn based combat. The story is really good, you can easily level up without doing any quests if you so choose and the game can be finished easily in 30 hours if you so choose.
