Poll: TES or Fallout?

[SH4DOWSL4Y3R]

I've always been a big fan of fantasy settings since i was young, as i did a lot of reading and my favourite books were mainly the stuff from David Eddings and Raymond E. Feist.

i i've now become very fond of post-apocalyptic settings as well, but i hold fantasy on a higher pedestal. (possibly partly due to nostalgia)

so TES stands a slight above fallout for me, although i still love both series.

I like TES more but not for a long shot, I just prefer fantasy. I still LOVE Fallout and it's my TOP 2 after TES Series.

 

[thephich]

Love both, but I'm more of a sucker for Fantasy than Post-Apocalyptic.

But that being said I prefer NV to Oblivion, but Oblivion of FO3.

 

[babinro]

I'd imagine the majority prefer Fallout as a series. The poll is likely skewed by the timing of Skyrim and it's hype though.

I've only played Fallout 3 and Oblivion from these series and I didn't like it Fallout.

TES, because I just love fantasy games. I'd take bows, swords, wands and orcs to guns and grenades any day. Why waste time scrounging for ammo and medikits when you can just chop someone into pieces with your claymore?

 

[username sucks]

fallout, because ive allways liked post apocalyptic setting in every game, movie, or book. Also in TES its weird how you can join theives guild, murdering guild, mercenaries(who are law abiding) mages (same) and still save the world. It just takes away the final bit of the games feeling plausible at all, but it can still be fun.

I've always been one of the opinion that sword fights are cooler than gun fights.

All the time spent playing shooters over the recent years has made me very sick of shooters.

So I get very weary of using guns. I definitely welcome the change of up-close and personal first person combat. Especially with RPG stats and loot. Oh, the loot.

Elder Scrolls. Hands down. While I'm a sucker for most any fantasy setting, I appreciate TES for it's less stereotypical approach to the genre.

If I'm given a choice between the Post-Apocalyptic and Swords-and-Sorcery settings, I'll pick up the sword quick as a wink.

 

[Seydaman]

Too different to really compare.

But personally I like fantasy over post apocalyptic.

 

[Troublesome Lagomorph]

TES. I've always enjoyed it more, I started playing it first and I love being a battlemage. I also prefer the music, the setting, and the choice to be a lizard man.

 

[Psychoninja7]

I said TES, but Fallout is very close behind. It's hard to choose for me because they're both games I enjoy a lot.

 

[CulixCupric]

i prefer fantasy rpgs to scifi rpgs.

 

[Pjotr84]

I can't say I prefer one series as a whole over the other; I'd take the classic Fallouts over TES until Morrowind, Morrowind over Tacitcs/BOS, Oblivion would tie with Fallout 3 since I both didn't like them. As for Skyrim, we'll have to see how it'll hold up against New Vegas, although it's unlikely going to beat an Obsidian game in story(telling) and dialogue.

 

[KelsieKatt]

I would say that I like the Fallout games better overall, as they're much deeper from a Role-Playing perspective than any of the Elder Scrolls games.

That said, the atmosphere in Morrowind was incredibly beautiful and probably my favorite of either franchise. The gameplay though has nothing on Fallout 1-3 and New Vegas.

 

[edens_shadow]

Why can't we mash up the two of them and have neo-dragons in a post apocalyptic landscapes...Fallout 4 developers take note!

 

[pppppppppppppppppp]

I've sunk more hours into Morrowind into any other video game ever. (well, except WOW but the difference is I actually enjoyed my time playing)

While Oblivion was a bit disappointing, and Fallout 3/New Vegas were great, Morrowind was amazing, and it still has the best collection of mods out there.

So TES by a hair (although I haven't played Fallout 1/2, Daggerfall or Arena)

 

[WolfThomas]

Hard as the original Fallout and Morrowind are too of my favourite games.
