I´m completely against the idea of new fallout being worse than the old fallout. Is nothing more than nostalgia googles, I have played Fallout 1 and I have enjoyed it a lot, but the new directon Bethesda gave it is fantastic too.


You can be against it all you want, it's your view on things and it's valid for you, but there is a very good reason why on core c/W/RPG sites like RPGCodex Fallout 1/2 are in top 3, with Fallout NV being 8th - and it has absolutely nothing to do with nostalgia goggles. For reference, so that no one thinks there is Bethesda hate there, Morrowind is in 7th place.

I completely understand how Bethesda's versions appeal more to mass market, especially FO4 that is even further dumbed down as RPG from FO3 - game is still decently fun and it certainly has its audience, it's just moving away from RPG elements that originals had and that FO3 at least tried to preserve to some degree.

IMO, right move be to try and bring all the missing stuff form FO1/2 into Bethesda's vision, but I guess that would be too much work or too niche for their current mass market status.
