Anyone who knows the past Fallout games have faith for this game while still producing the same effect as FO3. Picture related, it's the head developer on his current FO2 walk-through (plus restoration mod) which is being the base inspiration for the game.
Pic related, they fixed the gay holding of the weapon grip -yesterday-
"Before leaving the house we may also choose our first Trait, an extra character-defining quality not offered in 2008's Fallout 3. Some of these have pros and cons. For example, "Four Eyes" would give us plus-one to our perception if we wear glasses, minus-one if we don't. An odder one, Weird Wild Wasteland, would turn a lot of the game's cheekier jokes on or off. For example, you can play New Vegas with a willingness to come across a refrigerator that contains a bullwhip and hat — or you can play without worrying about seeing them. The jokes are an homage to Fallout 2, which was also full of pop-culture references to the delight of some fans and the consternation of others."

I want another 2D Fallout
it was the best game I've ever played in my life
no 3D crap with special effects could come to close to that (IMO)

Another 2d isometric game is never going to happen officially, the best you'd have to deal with is the suspected isometric mode in New Vegas.
Also that FO2 style on, FO1 style off perk "weird wild wasteland" god damn. Also Marcus is in FONV

Can only see it as boring considering the game has terrible FPS mechanics, writing and basically a playground with nothing to go on and empty atmosphere.

I played it without mods. Probably my second favourite game after mass effect 2.

Im yet to play F3, not really into todays games but I thoroughly enjoyed ME1 ME2 and consider them one of my favorites. Rather disappointed and bored by Bioshock. I get the feeling that in spite of what it might be worth (or not be) compared to its predecessors, F3 still makes for a pretty good game?

PICTURE UNRELATED AND NOT SAFE FOR WORK BUT ANOTHER REASON WHY PLAYING CONSOLE RPGS IS WRONG
Fallout New Vegas gets good reception at PAX, plays the same as FO3 of course but reports of streamlined. Also alchemy is in the game which is a cool new addition even if arguably taken directly from Oblivion code, though it should give a new usage to SCIENCE which was useless in vanilla FO3.

I only found out recently the Mirelurk's weakpoint was the eye. I thought combat shotgun was the only proper way to kill them for a long time.
GOD DAMN

I kept running out of shit. The main challenge of the game was keeping a balance of money, stimpaks, radaway, food, and purified water.
IF YOU DONT USE FUCKING FAGGOT FAST TRAVEL THE GAME OWNS
That is all

(dont get the shitty weapons post 50s)
Feel so sorry for those who didn't play this game on PC, you aren't playing a good FPS or RPG, it's a dirty and very ugly boring game by a developer (which is somehow above water despite everyone being neighbourhood friends, seriously) who cannot create a decent face or quest line.
