In which L-1011 finally revs over the redline and has an uncontained turbine failure. Opinions on Mechwarrior and Star Trek are also referenced.
Well it's finally here. Fallout 3. A game that destroyed a company and continues to divide what was once a loyal fanbase even to this day. Was it worth it? Well, we'll find out.
Produced by Bethesda Softworks, best known for the Elder Scrolls series of RPGs, the game is the sequel (of sorts) to Interplay's venerable Fallout series of ground-breaking late 90s RPGs. Fallout 3 takes place in an all-new setting, the Capital Wasteland, and features a first/third-person game engine ala modern FPS. After a false start with 'Project Van Buren' that ultimately drove Interplay to bankruptcy and resulted in the original closure of Black Isle Studios, Fallout 3 was finally released with much fanfare some eleven years after Fallout 2. Was it worth it? Although highly praised upon its release and winning numerous industry accolades and awards, even now the game engenders some resentment from the series die-hard fans.
This will certainly be interesting. This Let's Play has been requested as far back as during my Fallout 2 days. This will be my first official entirely blind Let's Play, as I've never played Fallout 3 (beyond the first hour or so of gameplay) to completion. Every other game I've LPed so far was a game I had extensive experience with, played front to back and otherwise dominated or at least held vast knowledge of. So this will be a new experience for all of us.
