Fallout fans-Why do you not like Fallout 3?

Done. They really cocked up the story in the middle, and the Dogmeat this game was a pure bred, not a mutt. What the hell were they thinking?

I think it's just a worry of a change. While change is often good, it is rarely welcome. And it isn't always good.

How about we ask this again in a few months when we've played and see how it plays, story, setting, mood, etc? I'm sure then you may receive valid complaints.

I'm just asking it now because I see the fans have been flamed lately with all the recent interviews and press attention the game has gotten. Also because as you mentioned, the game is not out yet, and as far as I can tell, Bethesda is keeping it pretty close to the heart of the series. I just want to hear it from the original fans about why they don't like it instead of just saying "Bethesda is killing Fallout" without giving any reasons as to why they think that. I understand change is why, but since were talking about a series that hasn't been visited properly in 10 years, change should be expected. Anyone wondering where a dated looking, isometric RPG is called Fallout 3 should know better at this point.
