All 3 games are awesome and have their faults in their own ways.

The fallout games are a lot like the universe within them: They are beautiful, flawed, charming, full of bugs both literal and not, daunting and wonderfully cracked up. Greatest gaming series ever IMO.

Play them all, deal with the bad parts because the good parts are some of the best in the world of games.

My only issue with New Vegas is when it first came out there was this weird "hipster" kind of mentality where if you didn't proclaim New Vegas superior in every way to FO3, you were "not a real fan."

Those same people hated it when I pointed out that New Vegas used the same engine and most of the same art assets as FO3, meaning they could focus on tweaks and story a lot more than the FO3 creators could.

I wasn't involved in said fandom, but the "real fan" talk revolved around NV being much more similar in tone and level of freedom to the first two games, while FO3 felt like a significant departure in tone and level of freedom. To many people who loved FO1 and FO2, FO3 was a major disappointment. That doesn't make it a bad game, in the same way that fans of Morrowind being disappointed in Oblivion doesn't make Oblivion a bad game. But the logic behind the reaction isn't unreasonable.

Using the TV show (set in New Vegas) to advertise a remaster for Fallout 3 is such a Bethesda move

The tv show is said to lead into the next game. Cooper Howard is in the Burning Springs dlc for FO76, which is set in Ohio, so we know he goes east after the show. Maybe he has some connection to the capitol wasteland.

Fallout 3 doesn't need a remaster. Give me exact remakes of 1 and 2 in the 4 engine.

The countdown ends tonight. I’ve only ever played FO4 and I’m currently doing a Survival playthrough. Every time I’ve thought about playing NV I see rumors of a remaster.

Tone, freedom, writing quality and also lore accuracy/development, which is one of fallout’s biggest assets. As a guy who went back and played them not as they came out, I remember being so engrossed by new Vegas whereas when I played 3 I remember never feeling compelled to do anything but just slog the main quest. I’m thankful they built the platform but NV is just so much better. Given industry context NV feels almost like lightning in a bottle.

I had multiple playthroughs. I was skeptical about The Elder Scrolls: Fallout and it just wasn't for me.

Wasteland 2 and 3 are the successors to FO 1 and 2. FO3+ are just different games entirely, just using the same setting and lore.

Yes, i think pretty early on people (on reddit) datamined the website and knew it was nothing.

I think there are other sources of rumours/confirmattion on a remake though.

Oblivion remaster was great so a FO3/NV would be awesome.... i would love TES6 please

Wish they'd stop wasting time on remasters and you know...put out new games again. Elder Scrolls VI has been in production for close to if not a decade. No clue where they are with Fallout 5

This isn't remotely true. When it first came out it was considered a cash grab buggy mess. It took a long time to develop the fan base it has now.

hell, what you said happens now. Not when it first came out. If you don't proclaim Vegas the best ever, you are considered a Fallout Moron.

I never played Fallout, but have really enjoyed the show.

Would love to play a next gen version of the games, or nexgen remaster of the existing.
