the tone flips wildly between goofy and serious, and I can’t really sympathize with any of the characters

So its staying true to the source material, then.

also I am not shocked at all Bethesda wanted to destroy new vegas, I'm sure thats a metaphorical middle finger to obsidian for daring to release a more popular game than they were able to, lol.

Lol seriously. The tone was what I thought they absolutely nailed. There's tons of examples but the easiest is how genuinely badass that power armor intro is, and then also "fuck fuck fuck fuck". Fallout was always like that lol.

you say this as if todd doesnt love obsidian and new vegas. why even go there at all if he hates it so much? this idea is so pathetic among the new vegas fanboys just seems like bad actors pushing a narrative against bethesda any means neccesary

Shut up, Todd.

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Tod Howard literally confirmed that NV is still cannon, and that >!shady sands was nuked shortly after NV!<.

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You are responding as if I said NV wasnt cannon?

Come on, it's 2024. You can't expect reading comprehension from these people!

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago (2 children)

I mean, Who knows.

So many people on Lemmy ignore what you say and reply to what they imagined you said so they can be all pissy and petulant, that its genuinely impossible to tell if its reading comprehension or not.

You know what?

I disagree with you, I think a sheep’s vagina would smell pretty bad.

Considering the only correction they made was a spoiler tag; I'm going to go ahead and say it's reading comprehension. But yes, you're right, it is difficult to tell.
