Fallout 3

It is great to see that they've given Fallout 3 to Bethesda (who did Daggerfall and Morrowind):

Yeah I saw that on slashdot this morning. I expect Bethesda will do an excellent job of it.

Oh no, they'll ruin it, all the top humour and dirt and grit will be gone, replaced with boring, drudgery 'quests'.

Morrowind was / is one of the best rpg's ever.

'Nuff said.

Pants: Nothing a 'fixme' console command couldnt fix [;)] but have to agree, once I figured out how to switch to wireframe and view the world in its wirey goodness, it was apparent that so many thing were overlooked.

Cliff racers flying around on the inside of the terrain mesh objects WTF !?? Rats trapped inside walls the list goes on and on.

Can't agree with any of you sorry, I played Morrowind, lied to myself that I was enjoying spending endless hours walking around dull and lifeless landscapes killing REALLY annoying pterodactyls, and for what? So I can get my character up another level? Big whoop, the story was a shambles, the fighting way too simple, and when I finished I just didn't care at all. I can't recall one interesting character in that game, one interesting battle, or one interesting anything.

I fear the same will happen to Fallout 3.
