New Fallout 3 Info

1. Yeah, as pointed out earlier I’m extremely angry, at pretty much the entire world, and it’s been this way for a while now.

Log off the internet.

I have my good days

I doubt that.

and bad days, these dipshits caught me on a bad day and they are nothing more than a bunch of playground bullies.

Yes. It’s quite bullying to laugh at the guy throwing a huge temper tantrum in response to people who aren’t involved with the board and that none of us know and that aren’t currently reading not liking a game he likes. Heck, not even not liking it. Initially not liking it and then liking it later.

Only problem is, even 5 or 10 to 1, this is one kid they wouldn’t have picked on, at least not more than once.

I can’t parse this one. Are you suggesting we’d only pick on you once because you’d lash out with your murderous anger and strike us down with a barrage of flailing star-slaps? Or are you saying that we’d only pick on you once cos you’d dissolve into a blubbery mass of tears and snot and we’d feel so disgusted we’d never look your way again?

2. A bad day and every one attacks you becasue they think it’s funny? Gee, whats to get upset about?

Guy, reread the turn of events. Story is shared. You respond like you think you’re about to fail the Voight-Kampff test. Then you get laughed at. Cos you were bein’ a big ol’ Silly Billy and Silly Billies get laughed at. Due, in no small part, to the silliness. Less so the billiness.

3)Thinking it’s funny isn’t even remotely amusing to me.

Well… it doesn’t really have to be amusing to you.

4. There is actually a “rational and reasonable” explanation for all my allged “batshit insane/retarded/whatever” posts in the last 10 months.
   But, no one would believe it, and you’d just think it was a cop-out.

Well, this paragraph is kind of a cop-out. And once again, if the stress is getting to you so much that you’re going to randomly lash out? Log the fuck off. You admit you have anger issues. So log off! That’ll keep shit from making you angry and it’ll keep schadenfreude lovin’ pricks like me from pointing and being all ROFL LOL.

So, I don’t see any reason to explain myself to any of you.

Yet you just did.

Aww, that’s so cute! You’re totally reminding me of first grade, so I drew you a hand turkey:

I loved childhood, didn’t you? Nostalgia is great!

[gordonrumble]

And yet, you do feel the need to continue posting.

Lucky us.

Hey, I’m being entertained.

Look John, swearing at people isn’t going to get them to try to get you, it’ll get them to dislike you. This forum is a bad place for you to vent anger issues, because you’ll get buried under a mountain of dry mockery. If you have issues with something about a game, the game industry or gamer culture, explain it in a rational manner and it’ll make for an awesome discussion. There is no excuse short of serious mental problems for acting so poorly. I didn’t do anything bad to you, so return the favour.

Futurkey resents being called dry mockery. He is quite explicit!

It can’t be any worse than any of Rimbo’s excuses.

[Desslock]

No offense intended, Desslock, but I remember him saying that the story in NWN2 OC was “the best since Torment” or something to that effect and while that may be technically true, that story has a lot of issues.

FWIW, I think there’s a couple of quotes getting conflated - I compared the story of Mask of the Betrayer to planescape torment - not the original campaign.

Of the original NWN2, I said although it had a terrible start, it was the best D&D game since Baldur’s Gate 2, which it clearly was/is, because of its similarly epic scope/comprehensive adaptation of the rules system, etc. and the best game the Obsidian crew had done (of any type) since Planescape Torment.

[Cubit]

I loved NWN2 when I was playing it, but after several hours in the game glitched and none of my saves were working. Put it down and never went back.

[Desslock]

In fact, sometimes it can seem relentlessly bleak, and something horrible or heartbreaking can lie over every hill when you’re exploring. The wasteland you enter after you leave the Vault is a place utterly without hope, and the ruins of civilization have a distinctly depressing feel much of the time.

It’s really an excellent realization of a post-apocalyptic setting. It’s not as…I guess I’d say cavalier about the setting as FO and FO2, and I think it benefits from it.

Yeah, that’s basically what I meant in that excerpt.

[Fugitive]

Woo, you can actually go get the manual for it right now through the Steam storefront.

It seems to confirm the validity of some pics people had posted on other forums of the PS3 package. Some accused them of being fakes to dodge piracy accusations since the cover of the manual looked just like the original Fallout’s, but this one does too.

peeks in Is the thread over yet? Mommie its tingling I don’t understand it. :(

Eww, what the incest?!

Bummer. The manual isn’t bad compared to most recent games, it’s actually quite good, but it’s not in the same league as the original games. I was hoping they would take the same tact and make an attempt at a realistic vault dweller manual but ah well.

What is wrong? Can we talk about it? Coffee?

[Scotch_Lufkin]

What is wrong? Can we talk about it? Coffee?

Maybe it’s time we pulled the trigger on this thread…

[anaqer]

I have to say as controversies go, Fallout 3 is spectacularly nerdy. Honestly, could you imagine trying to explain it all to someone:

"See, there’s this ten year old game, and there’s this internet forum of people who are fans of the game, and there’s a sequel coming out.

So, are the fans excited by the sequel?

No, they’re very angry about it."

Actually, it sounds like a Patton Oswalt bit…

Thanks a lot. There goes another mouthful of perfectly good tea.

[Mike_O_Malley]

Maybe it’s time we pulled the trigger on this thread…

Wait for it…John Sansker has appeared as the Horseman of the Apocalypse. The message he’s about to bring, and the arguments it will provoke, will mark the true end of this thread.

Did you really just go with “I would kick your ass in real life”? Did you? I tell you what. Next time there’s a margarine stick eating contest in Atlanta and you’re coming to town to defend your title you drop me a PM, and we’ll get in touch. Picking on people in person has always been my favorite…what can I say? I’m old fashioned.

2. A bad day and every one attacks you becasue they think it’s funny?
   Gee, whats to get upset about?

No one is attacking you because you are having a bad day/life. I, for one, make fun of you because you post ragingly stupid things and it’s my civic duty to condition better behavior in you. The combination of that and your erratic behavior on other similarly ridiculous threads has proved to make you a perfect target. You may not have gotten the memo, but your societal role is clearly to be “jolly” and/or “good natured”. Nobody likes an angry Sasquatch.

3)Thinking it’s funny isn’t even remotely amusing to me.

Really? Because you strike me as a guy with a great sense of humor.

Everything you post that isn’t “I’m sorry I’m a tremendous douche, and I’m wrong about everything I said” or “I apologize for single handedly consuming a quarter of the earth’s resources” is a cop out. Find a better way to occupy your time than running for office as King of the Shitdrinkers here.

John, your favorite book isn’t Ender’s Game by chance, is it?

No, but he did kill and eat a child in primary school! How did you know?

[Andre_Costa]

No, but he did kill and eat a child in primary school! How did you know?

It’s ok. I heard she played games on a console.
