Dogs....

So I ran into the two best characters last night.

The Antagonizer and The Mechanist

So, I must say, this game looks like a lot of fun. But, I didn't like Oblivion. Will I like Fallout 3?

well, as big of a fan as i am of fallout...i have to say that Fallout 3 fell short of my expectations. The only things that are "fallout" about it is VATS, the environment, and the story. Everything else screams oblivion, from the NPC interaction, to the gameplay.

In oblivion, you ran around, doing quests, eventually finishing the main quest while collecting items, making items, and killing random bad creatures that you encountered throughout the world...sadly, this game is no different.

I think what ruins it the most for me is the camera (same as oblivion, by the way...either first person or third person) and the real-time battle system (which, by the way, is identical to oblivion without the VATS).

And don't get me wrong, i loved oblivion, i put a good 40 hours into the game at least, and i no doubt will do the same with fallout...i just wish it had more fallout features. Options to have turn-based battles, or to have a helicopter camera view, and maybe *something i haven't tested yet* be able to talk to brahmin if you intelligence was very low would make this game feel a hell of a lot more like fallout.

anyway, back to the game...

hahaha! No, no no.....

I mean the dog that sticks around with you and is your companion. His name is dogmeat. :lolz:

I found the schematics for a nuka-cola grenade today. It takes nuka-cola quantum, a tin can, turpentine and abraxo cleaner to make. The pretty explosion is well worth the 700 caps it took to buy alone but the added high damage and setting things on fire as well makes it so much more worth it. Now if I could only find more quantum nuka-colas laying around.

And Swan where do you find The Antagonizer and The Mechanist?

anyone get the rock-it launcher yet?

I tried to report that Burke fellow to Lucas Simms and then Burke murdered Lucas. Did this happen to anyone else?

*spoilers*

In the tunnel with all the traps there is a turn off, and it looks like a train car is blocking it but it really isnt. Go in there, be careful there are some traps.

So I found Earl in the game.

GNR, Three Dog.
