Also, each game was its own separate story. Some referred to other "Vault Dwellers" (prior game hero focus) but each started as a story in and of itself. Each of the main titles (1 through 4) focus on a different vault dweller from a different vault (the exception being New Vegas, where the main character isn't from a vault, but born and raised on the surface). So it would be kind of strange to start them up with a continuation from the last game.

10:50 Fallout 3 takes place a good 100 years after the events of Fallout 1 and 36 years after the events of Fallout 2 which are both set in California with 2 featuring some of Northern Nevada. These two games put together take up a large amount of California which by this point was very developed in terms lore, factions, locations, and characters. Fallout 3 was the first game in the series to take place on the East Coast being set in Washington, D.C., Northern Virginia, and parts of Maryland (mostly Montgomery County). Fallout 3 is very much disconnected from the events of the first games along with the many factions and even some creatures in many ways the East Coast of America having no mention in Fallout 3 as they don't exist over in the East. The East Coast is also far less developed while on the West we have large nations like the NCR who have begun to rebuild while D.C has remained overrun with Super Mutants. So yeah this was very much a great place for new comers to start for people with no insight on the Fallout universe. Fallout New Vegas on the other hand was set in the Mojave Wasteland, which encompasses parts of the former states of California, Nevada, and Arizona. This game heavily relates to the older games as many factions return along with a lot more references to the events of Fallout 2 and even featuring some characters from that game. Fallout 4 is set in Boston and the surrounding area so it has more connections to Fallout 3 than the older games.

Fallout 3 was definitely the newcomer's Fallout experience from around that time, it was the first Fallout game *I* played and enjoyed for the most part. Gameplay-wise, it's not as refined as Fallout New Vegas or Fallout 4, but the themes and setting work in it's favor greatly. Some parts are heartfelt and serious, some downright scary, and others comedic and fun. I mainly remember how freaky it could be traveling from the first town you find to another a short distance away as it's getting dark and being surrounded by dead trees and things lurking in the shadows. The underground train tunnels were also like that as well, frequently populated by feral ghouls and sometimes super mutants. Vault 88, a major plot-centric location, is incredibly creepy as well. It was once a vault used for study and experimentation of FEV, later becoming irradiated and populated by a lot of hostile super mutants (except for one). The front entrance is completely blocked off by incredibly lethal radiation, which is higher than virtually anywhere else in the game, so the only other entrance is through a cave which is home to a group of kids that run the place until they reach teenage/adult age and leave for a different settlement.

Goddamn this brought back memories (holy shit it's been 14 years since Fallout 3 was released). I remember on my first playthrough I was just walking through some ruins on the outskirts of DC when I start hearing gun shots headed in my direction. No one was around and I was low level (so not very high perception). After taking a hit or two, I found I was under fire by some sniper set up in one of the ruins. I had some grenades so I moved up and fragged him out. It was just some old guy with a .308 and there wasn't a quest or anything. This was just some dude the devs put there to try and randomly kill the player. Had a bunch of mines around him, too. That's one thing I liked about Fallout 3 over New Vegas. New Vegas is a lot more populated and lively because of where it takes place, which gives it all that political intrigue trying to navigate between the various factions. But Fallout 3 really felt post-apocalyptic. The most dangerous thing was other people. There's a ton of empty buildings and underground places to wander around in. You could often go hours rummaging through these places without ever encountering another person. Then it was fucking scary when you did run into someone (or something!), because you didn't know if they had friends nearby or had laid traps or what.

Once Bethesda bought Fallout from Interplay, they rebooted the series starting with Fallout 3, changing it from isometric style gameplay to a first person/third person RPG. The story is a little repetitive in the fact that the games are focused on the vaults that Vault-Tec created. Vault-Tec treated each vault as an experiment so the player encounters unique scenarios with each vault. The games definitely have a creepy vibe, but they offset this with the 50s aesthetic combined with dark humor, as witnessed in the E3 trailer. For newcomers, here’s the list of fallout games in chronological order: 1, 2, Tactics, Brotherhood of Steel, 3, New Vegas, Shelter, 4, 76

The intro cinematic was not a mistake. They re-used the footage from the teaser trailer to start off the intro cinematic with the radio in the bus, panning out to the destroyed Washington DC and the Brotherhood of Steel soldier in power armor, but instead of stopping there, they segue into the narration and concept art reel. :) Also, yes, the narration is quite similar to Fallout 1 and 2 in many respects. This is very deliberate, since they wanted to make old fans feel welcomed back, and introduce new players to the universe. Keep in mind that Fallout 2 was released in 1998, and Fallout 3 was released in 2008. A lot of gamers has come and gone in ten years, so a re-introduction felt appropriate. :) For some old fans the switch from 2D top down isometric view to 3D First Person Shooter (FPS) view felt like too much of a break with the first two games. Others did not like the direction Bethesda took the writing and depiction of various factions, but some old players did like it well enough, and it brought in *loads* of new fans to the franchise for whom Fallout 3 was the first game they played in the series. ---- Related info but not pertinent to Fallout 3 ---- Fallout New Vegas came out in 2010, published by Bethesda but the dev team and writers had many of the old guard from Fallout 1 and 2 on it. It suffered from a rushed production schedule and as a result was/is quite buggy and unstable (even by Bethesda standards) but the writing is excellent and questing and factions are set up in a distinctly different way from Fallout 3, so despite using the same engine, the games feel very different in how they are set up. Highly regarded by the fans and won some well-deserved rewards for its writing. Fallout 4 came out in 2015 and was again both developed and published by Bethseda. It used a new game engine compared to the earlier two produced by Bethesda, with many improvements. It had a settlement/base building system, a voiced main protagonist, better "gunplay" (how guns work, feel to shoot and how you aim with the sights) and introduced radiant quests (a simpler form of quests randomly generated within a set of parameters that are more or less infinitely repeatable) allowing you to keep progressing your character even when the main questline and the major sidequests were done. It had some 'new tech' issues, like the settlement building being quite limited initially and the radiant quests quickly becoming boring due to the small variation in them (go here and kill a person/fetch an item basically), and the NPC they used to introduce the radiant quests, and who gave you the majority of them, were bugged and gave you quests both more frequently than intended, and often several of them at once as well. The companions the player can recruit had also been improved upon, taking many cues from both other games and the player-made modded companions made for Fallout New Vegas in particular. They were more fleshed out, had their own likes and dislikes as well as 'loyalty missions' that brought them closer to the player. The choice of having a voiced protagonist caused a lot of players to feel too "locked in" to a personality and loosing the freedom to make the character truly their own, while many others celebrated it and loved that Fallout had embraced the voiced protagonists just like the Witcher, Mass Effect and Dragon Age games had done.

So, funny thing about the vaults, there were 17-ish control vaults that were just completely normal shelters, and the rest were social experiments by vault tec to see how humans react or develop with certain stressors or unique scenarios. Vault 15, for example, was filled with ideologically and culturally diverse people to see if they could successfully coexist. That happens to be the vault the west coast post-apocalyptic US bastion of civilization, the New California Republic, comes from. Also some raider clans like the Great Khans. My favorite vault is Vault 108, which had just one guy, Gary, and a cloning lab. Clones him over and over into a society of just Garys. Wasn't exactly great for their collective mental health, and by the time you get to it the current generations of Gary are only capable of saying Gary and hostile on sight.

Something to consider about Blizzard. They were their own company for many years before a majority of their shares were purchased by Activision, to ultimately crate Activision Blizzard. As far as I know, the toxicity was with Activision, not Blizzard. I understand that some people may not see the distinction, or its relevance. But now Microsoft has purchased Activision Blizzard and has already mentioned their strong disapproval of that toxicity. I suspect they will move to remove the toxic people from the company, and hopefully change the company culture to create a more healthy environment. I don't think it would be good to punish the company for a few bad apples, considering many of their victims still work there. And so do many good people, who I'm sure did not approve of the abuse that transpired. Let's hope Microsoft can restore a semblance of decency for the company, and those who work there. Phil Spencer, the man in charge of the gaming side of Microsoft seems to be a good man, and is greatly respected in the industry. He genuinely seems to have the industry, it's people and it's customers' best interests at heart. I know it's unusual to talk about senior corporate executives being decent human beings. But he is not your typical corporate executive. He did not claw his way to the top. he was asked to take the role. He comes from a gaming background and is genuinely passionate about that. I hope he, and like minded individuals can help to heal Activision Blizzard and make it a better place for all.

As I see it, the repetitiveness of the opening in Fallout intros is to invoke either nostalgia or continuity. It was 10 years between releases of Fallout 2 and Fallout 3. The "War never changes" serves as an anchor that gives many old players goosebumps because their favorite game series continues. As for writing for newcomers to an established book series, I feel like it is good to call back to previous books only when relevant. If a plot point or character characterization can stand its own, then no call back is necessary. If some relationship might not be clear without reading previous book, then I think 2-3 sentences about said relationship should be enough. Don't do a lore dump at the start of the book, that would confuse the readers and most likely will forget who is who.

You raise a good question for instance with Cosby and all that he did, it was awful, and yet to punish others on account of his actions is not good. In this age, we have access to a wealth of information and insight into the lives of many people that we would have been oblivious to in years past. But I think what turned this into such a problem is that we believed that people are fundamentally good, and we are seeing time and time again, that is not the case. This is in part to a lazy definition of what it means to be good. We have long used Hitler as a foil to prove our goodness, but if we can only prove our goodness by comparison to another's evil, then we don't really have to try and be good, we just have to be better than the worst. But if we start with the premise that everyone is evil, then the actions of men like Cosby, Weinstein, etc. do not surprise us and it can mitigate some of the emotional response that we have to their evil. Evildoers need to be prosecuted, they need to be dealt with, and they need to judged by what we know to be good, but those who are not guilty of their crimes should not be punished along with them. Otherwise we commit evil by persecuting the innocent.

Also the main character in a leather jacket and with a sawed-off shotgun are used to advertise (or at least decorate) every game.

I think separating the art from the artist is easier when it’s a game, a movie or a tv series because it’s a project involving the talents of a large number of people who may or may not be garbage. When it’s an IP that was basically a one person operation, like a certain series of books about a wizard boy, separating the work from the person who wrote the books is much more difficult. It became much more difficult for me to enjoy Parks and Recreation when it became evident that a couple main cast members aren’t good people. I think it’s important to acknowledge it. I think it’s important to understand why people have issues with people who are creative but are also awful people. I think it’s something one has to not only square with themselves, but also square their viewpoints with people who may be affected by the awful behavior that is now linked to the art. That’s my 2¢ of vaguely relevant ramblings.

The song from the full trailer, Dear Hearts and Gentle People, originally was recorded in 1949. It's a very fitting choice for the Fallout series, but the developers might not even know why. One year after the song's release in 1950, the US Atomic Energy Commission went to a small rural South Carolina town, Ellenton (as well as other nearby towns such as Dunbarton and Myers Mill), and forced landowners for 300 square miles to sell and relocate in order for the federal government to build production facilities for the material that goes into nuclear weapons. Thousands of people had to be relocated, and shortly after the announcement, a hand painted sign was added to the pole for the sign that marked the Ellenton town limits: "It is hard to understand why our town must be destroyed to make a bomb that will destroy someone else's town that they love as much as we love ours -- but we feel that they picked not just the best spot in the US, but in the world. We love these dear hearts and gentle people who live in our home town."

The first two Fallouts were very 2-dimensional, text-heavy, and somewhat of an isometric RPG (3/4s view) where you make decisions. Fallout 3 was the first time it was made into a first-person shooting RPG. It is like the difference between D&D and Elderscrolls. Totally different style, different mechanics, similar story. Every game you wake up as a person from a different vault. In FO1 it was V13, in FO2 it was V8, in FO3 it was 101 near Washington DC, in FO4 it was V111 near Concord, MA. As horrible as the wastes were, it was nothing compared to the medical, biological, chemical, social experimentation that went on in some of the other Vaults. It was all just a front to scare "volunteers" into their contained research experiments, for generations to come. Some serious nightmare-fuel horror stories too from the darkest side of humanity.

I would honestly say that making sure to set up each game individually is even more important in games than books, because these huge games take a lot longer to consume than the average book does to read and so a lot of times people will only ever play one game in a series, especially with something like Fallout where the plots of each entry are not related to each other but are instead self-contained stories in the same world. For example, I have never played 1, 3, or 4, but I have played New Vegas and by some miracle was able to get my hands on 2, and I consider myself a pretty big fan of the series despite having played less than half of the games released.

Vaults in the Fallout universe are more often than not study hubs for Vault-Tec, most of the study topic were sadistic and cruel. A notable example being one vault completely filled with drug addicts sobering up which includes one room filled with *all* of the drugs and having weapons given to the dwellers to see what they'd do. In the case of vault 101, it was never suppose to open.

the thing with the fallout series is that 3 was a major departure from previous titles, where 1 and 2 where more tactical, turn based games (like typical pen and paper roll playing games), 3 was the first title in the series to be a first person shooter, additionally since the rights to fallout were bought by bethesda from the publisher of 1 and 2 (interplay entertainment), 3 served many as the entry to the fallout universe, meaning you had to explain the universe for all those. for books i feel it's a bit diffrent since your enjoyment isn't influenced by game genres per se because you don't play games whose genre doesn't suit your tastes.

Oh yes. Fallout: one of my favorite game series. The horrible and creepy world of nuclear holocaust, drudging through ruins and finding the remnants of people in their last moments mixed strangely well with satire and absurdist comedy like grandmas with canes jumping you in an alley, aliens, a man dressed as a robot fighting an ant queen super villain, and a cult of men and women who thought Elvis Presley was ACTUALLY the king. 😂

Videogames are most of the time fairly newby friendly because you never know when a new player gets into the franchise and older entries might not even be playable on the same system anymore. For a book series this is usually less important since books in a series usually get reprints when a new entry releases and people tend to start at the first.

i like to think of the opening narration in all the fallout games as the opening passage in star wars movies it sums up the minute needed pre exposition that the new player needs and the returning players get a setup for the first part of the story plus ron pearlman he always does it straight and changes his tone of voice to match the tone of each game

If the post-apocalyptic setting with a man and his dog piques your interest you have to see the movie "A Boy and His Dog" from 1975 with a young Don Johnson of Miami Vice fame. It's definitely worth watching and apparently takes place in 2024! btt: Fallout 3 was a great game with a stupid ending that was fixed with DLC. A lot of fun playing where you had a wide variety of choices, characters to ebngae with, sub-plots or simple exploration to do. The world-building was great and immersive. Bought it on release aeons ago but this vid brought back a lot of memories, especially Dogmeat, your canine companion 🐕

It's been said by fans of the franchise that Fallout 3 is, bar none, the most depressing of all the Fallouts. It's atmosphere, it's tone, even it's color. Fallout 1 had it's glimmers of hope, Fallout 2 showed people rebuilding, Fallout 4 is all about recovering from grief and standing for one's beliefs no matter what they are. But Fallout 3 is pure, grinding horror and sorrow. Made worse by every moment of the game making sure to tell us that the end of the world and all our suffering is our own fault. No gods. No masters. No excuses. Just us, and the consequences.

It's difficult to judge Fallout that way. Each game is set in a different city and there are drastically different stories in each city. The setting is what really drives the narrative. Also in the setting there were 112 Vaults. Only 17 worked as advertised. All the others were experiments designed to test different control ideas. Vault 101 in DC was specifically designed not to be opened ever. It could open yes, but the mission of the vault was never to open to the outside. Very different from Vault 111's mission in Fallout 4.

It's degrees of separation for me. Watching anything with Cosby or Spacey in it hits harder because their presence reminds me of what happened, as opposed to a name popping up somewhere in the credits, like Weinstein, if I even notice it. Blizzard in particular hurts me because for years they were my go-to studio, with Diablo, Warcraft and even early Hearthstone. Hearing about all the heinous shit going on behind closed doors there helped me understand the people saying "No, not Cosby" a few years ago, because my first reaction mirrored theirs exactly.

Hi id like to chime in my 2 Cents on the repetitive nature of the "War, war never changes." intro speeches. its a lot like "A long time ago in a Galaxy Far, Far away..." its setting a tone and is a call back ... im sure there is a word for this , but i can't think of it. I can liken it to Harry needing to get to school, "the day the cat..." . Real life has a routine , brush your teeth, do the dishes , work , living is the day in day out, Adventures are a break , chaos, learning and growing moments. the circumstance , players , and consequence may change , But War, War never changes. Cheers

You should check out "Star Citizens" game ship commercials. The Anvil Arrow and the Anvil Hawk is some of the best commercials to check out. They get you hyped up to play the game. Star Citizens is supposed to be a space simulator with beautiful details of there planets, but it's still in the works by making the game more realistic little at a time and so worth playing.

while some of the intros are repetitive to some degree, the games themselves take place in different parts of the world with different protagonist with their own respective stories. fallout 3 intro did needed a repetitive intro due to the fact that it was the first 3d fallout game made by a completely new studio, and also because there wasnt a new true fallout game in 10 years at the time

Each Vault is running a social experiment upon its inhabitants, with the leader, the Overseer keeping the experiment going. Vault 101 is keeping up this myth that they are cutoff and their door to the outside never opens. What Ron Perlman tells you is a lie, the protagonist from this game was not born inside Vault 101.

When writing reintroductions to characters, I usually give a single paragraph consisting of what they look like now, the most memorable thing they did during the last adventure he was on with the main character, and maybe a small bit of forshadowing where they'll be going disguised as another comment about their attitude or appearance. In terms of reintroducing readers to the world I don't waste a lot of time, maybe 2-3 paragraphs or less half of the first chapter in - I put a lot of faith in my readers to infer what's going on from word choice and descriptions of locales, to the actions the characters are taking, etc. Might not be the best way, but it's mine.

Always separate the art from the artist on a societal level. Individuals do as they wish. A company, however, is not an artist. It’s an entity with practices. I don’t see any merit in supporting a company. They can go under, the IPs can be sold to new hands, the staff not caught up in the scandal can find new jobs. Activision Blizzard is a great lesson in why men need to man the fuck up. That was allowed to continue because our society had raised weak men.
