Maybe remake is a bad term maybe reimagining would be better although they mean pretty much the same thing. I'm not saying it needs one I'm just saying it would be interesting to see. Bring the old games in to the new engine and toss the new game in to the old engine. It would just be a really cool thing for Bethesda or anyone else to do.Shapsters said:
They could do it. No one would play it except hardcore old-school fans though since those types of games are no longer popular. Therefore, it would be unprofitable so, it's pretty unlikely to get made.
If complaints are what we are trying to avoid, then don't make anything ever. No complaints, everyone is happy.orannis62 said:
If anything more than this needs to be said, someone needs a nice helping of common sense.xmetatr0nx said:
The thing about turn-based is that it's all about levelling your character, much like tabletop RPG. You design a great character and they'll do well in the situations you've designed them for. In an fps (or equivalent), you can design a shitty character, and just be quick with your RT finger. I actually like the mix that Fallout 3 has. I love the levelling side, and sometimes that's fine on its own, but the balance they struck in FO3 was pretty much spot on for me.
So far as the original Fallouts go, I tried to play the first one back when FO3 came out and I couldn't afford it. Now I play some old-school games, and some point-and-click games, but I found Fallout 1 irretrievably ugly, and the story didn't really draw me in in the opening hour or so. So I stopped playing it. I know that there are people who love them. I also know (though I don't understand) that there are some people who prefer them over the most modern incarnation. For me, there's not much they could fix about Fallout 3 to make a better post-apocalyptic role-playing game.

I'd prefer to see the old games remade with a new engine..Probably not the Bethesda one, though. Although..That GECK thing. That could be used, no?
It is barely a year old, the only thing I'd want to see changed is to make it a little more like Oblivion and include an insta-heal thing similar to the healing spell. Because in the beginning with the dreaded mirelurks I just died, and died and died and died over and over and over again.
I replied in the assumption that he was talking about the turn-based combat. You click on the enemy and the dice/game do all the work.
I like Bethesda's engine, bug-ridden as it is. If I want to play old Fallout, I go play old Fallout.
