Duck and Cover

How is linking to DAC's interview "stealing"?

They first wrote the ending, and recorded Perlman's lines for it, and only then designed the radiation-immune followers.

Funny that they cut it "for reasons of space", yet wasted space on reassuring their readers that there won't be any ties to the original games.

There are probably more speakers of Na'vi than Esperanto already.

Hell, even Klingon would probably make a better lingua franca.

The Mister Chris Avellone (MCA) thing was something we started using in news postings about him just because I was too lazy to type out his sort of half ethnicy name all the fucking time.

Imagine having to type "Emil Pagliarulo" all the time.

I'd be really curious to hear his response for #7. Maybe if you post this in the ask the devs thread at the bethstapo forums you'll get some answers.

Doubtful.

I don't necessarily think so. Other countries had their part in the 1950s vision of the future. I'm pretty sure a game set in a retro Soviet Union with futuristic socialist realism all around would still be pretty Fallouty, although I wouldn't necessarily want it in the main Fallout series.

A video game "journo" site.

Not really a "journo" site, just a gaming version of Digg.

Apart New California Republic, the fact the city is all lit up (an indication that society is getting back on it's feet, following on from Fallout 2), no doubt an inclusion of Harold (this is set before Fallout 3 right?), no doubt a Dogmeat, some recycled plot elements, mentioning of places.

OXM 2008: Fallout 3 is, quite literally, a tale of following in your father’s footsteps, but you choose how closely or how distantly you toe that line in everything from a slew of tough moral conundrums to the exact route you take. You can be the saintly savior of all you encounter, a vile murdere...

If they're in, I hope they play a minor role like in FO2.

I doubt it has anything to do with Vault City. Probably some NCR unit number or something. And the guy in the teaser with the same armor has the number 7 on his back.

I just hope the whole "Super Mutants in Fallout 1 were all smart" was just the journo being clueless.

Well, compared to the Fallout 3 ones except for Fawkes, even Harry was a genius.

I think he's just a generic NCR soldier, just like the power armored guy in the FO3 teaser/intro was a generic BoS paladin. This is just meant to show that the NCR is involved as a military force, you're reading too much into it.

Not specifically, but the same arguments that Herve writes about in his declaration have been posted about before anyway.
