StaceyPowers Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Thought I would share this. I see a lot of people complaining that it looks like a combination of New Vegas and Bioshock. Funny, because that's exactly why I am excited by it. I love the aesthetics, and NV in my opinion plays better than most of Bethesda's games, and it seems clear that Obsidian is what made the difference. kingpotato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanC Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 So pumped for this game. Microsoft were wise to snatch up Obsidian, though I'm glad the game was so far along, that it's still coming to the PS4 (my platform of choice these days). Definitely getting a lot of New Vegas vibes from it (same dev and all that). Can't wait for it! StaceyPowers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm so excited for this one, yet I know I will be waiting ... If there's any chance of PS5 being backwards compatible, getting a PS4 just makes no sense at this point of time for me.

killamch89 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Too bad Epic games had to get their grubby little paws on this game because I was really looking forward to playing it. I guess I'll have to wait until next year then when it is on Steam because there is no way I am going to re-download that piece of spyware known as the Epic games launcher.

Basically, their launcher is scanning the files on your computer without your permission collecting information on you. A Reddit user pointed brought it to everyone's attention and Epic Games confessed to it but tried to make it seem like it wasn't a really big deal. Steam even demanded a response from Epic Games as to who gave them permission to scan their Steam files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, that's basically when I stopped playing Fortnite as well - just so I can avoid using the launcher. In addition to that, their store UI is buggy and lacks a lot of basic features and is basically one big mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingpotato Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Looks promising, if it ends up as good as New Vegas I will definitely purchase it. It will be a disappointment if it ends up like Anthem or Fallout 76. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they put that same care into this, it should be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but I meant like the hype-disappointing game, I'm weak for open-free world type games so I'm looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah right. I took what you said too literally (I'm told I do that a lot, lol). Hype truly is a double-edged sword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, they scaled down on quantity in other respects (i.e. fewer companions, but more substance to them). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True , in a way New vegas felt smaller than Fallout 3 but much more polished, And I still prefer New Vegas over Fallout 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
