Guys, there are some great points being made here, but please be careful about seeming to 'bash' the Codex. We actually do try to avoid that sort of thing for several very good reasons.

Cause DU is from Oz and you guys stick together?
… Maybe Bioware needed some sort of … scapegoat ?
And for that they took an RPG-related site with a … not very great reputation ? …
You didn't really love F3, right? Surely you jest, or perhaps I just failed my sarcasm detection roll.All good replies..
The one thing I just want to let everyone know is, I think the RPGCodex "acceptable list" is exceptional even though I think they are jerks. That is basically what I was trying to say.
I do not however agree with EVERYTHING they say. They are one collective mind. And crap like that is scary, like a cult. I happened to love Fallout 3 and they made fun of me for that. Insanity!
You better head over there and see for yourself.Aries100 said:PS: And what is 4chan?

Oh well, each one to his own I guess. As long as you don't argue that the game has good writing or is a worthy sequel to the previous games I think we can get along just fine. But I must say that I really can't understand how one could love the game having played them, that is assuming that you have done so.I don't know about him, but I definitely loved my time with FO3. Properly tweaked of course.

How did you guys make sago stop writing his posts in caps by the way? You didn't hurt the little bugger, did you?
Have you ever really tried to play FO3? Or did you just play the vanilla version for awhile and dismiss it?
Out of the box, it sucks. I used a few choice mods to increase realism, and to greatly increase the difficulty, and I found it to be a very immersive experience. I've played through every Fallout game except New Vegas, and I spent the most time with FO3.
I've only played Oblivion for a few hours, and it didn't do anything for me. That was completely vanilla though, and I plan on going back someday with mods.
Like Jack said.. to each his own.
The potential was already there, it just needed a few small tweaks..
I even liked vanilla FO3 to some degree…not great due to a lack of a strong story or "true" role-playing (as in meaningful choices and consequences - I'm pretty big on that ) but I had fun. What mods would you consider to be "essential," JDR? I seem to have the same FO3 tastes as you in terms of wanting the game to be more "realistic."
