<p>Once upon a time, many moons ago, there was a slightly obsessive Fallout fan who wrote a very long article about why a certain game would suck. That game was <strong>Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel</strong>, otherwise known as <strong>Fallout: Piece of Shit</strong> (FO:POS) or <strong>Fallout: Enforcer</strong> (FoE - in reference to a very bad action spin-off from the X-Com series). The article was called <a href="http://www.thevats.net/content.php?id=11">#27 Things about Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel</a> and that Fallout fan was me. At long last, that article is now here on DaC for all to enjoy. Here's a snip:</p>
<blockquote>... it's not FO:BOS slightly deviating from the Fallout story that's concerning. More than likely, a "story excuse" can be made as to why the BoS became heavy mutie hunters. We can conveniently ignore the FEV that Vault-Tec have gotten their hands on (considering the FEV that makes the Super Mutants in Fallout 1 was actually modified by the Master). We can probably make up some story excuse that fits a lot of what is occuring. It's just 'that feeling' that seems lost from this game. The indescribable feeling that the setting and atmosphere creates. Item descriptions on the web-site indicate a lack of care about most things. Who cares about the neat science descriptions? We just need to protect the jewels OMFG LOL!!11! As for 50's music? Phooey! Get rid of that crap and get some techno in there! What about women? Well, sex sells, so let's throw in as many of them in thongs as we can! What's most concerning, is this entire development teams approach to Fallout. Fallout isn't a great atmosphere with a rich background. Oh no...</blockquote>
