Well, it actually leads straight into "What's the definition of an RPG?" but that's a discussion thread we've also had here from time to time. I don't agree with that definition of an RPG there, but I'm unlikely to convince you to agree with mine.

Remember the kebab/meat-on-a-stick seller from the original FO? [spoiler]And your options once you found out what he was actually selling?[/spoiler]
Can people please use spoiler tags :( As I mentioned just a page or two ago I am currently playing through Fallout for the first time.

Yeah, but the difficulty with spoilering older games is the question of 'where does it end'?

I sympathize too but I'm inclined to think that after ten years, the responsibility to avoid spoilers is pretty much on you.

Actually I envy him a bit. *sigh*

Honestly, I didn't think it was going to be that big a spoiler this far down the line. That, and it's not a point that drives the main plot, per se. The question was only asked to evoke the 'mood' of the game.
(I guess I could also say, 'Hang on, the answer wasn't explicitly spelled out.' But that isn't going to hold water in this situation, is it? :joke:)
But anyway. I understand how teeth-gnashing it can be when you're still exploring a game on your own. So for the benefit of the unspoiled, I've taken your suggestion. My apologies. :)

Yeah, that's fair enough, but it's not as if I was hanging out in a "Let's discuss Fallout 1 thread", it was just a minor spoiler slipped into a discussion about Fallout 3.
Anyway you are right Sulphur, it's not a major thing, I wasn't upset or anything, apology accepted :D

That was originally posted by a guy called "Confidence Man" on the BethSoft forum.
Somehow, I find myself thinking it might not be true...

It's been confirmed, or something.
Still doesn't really tell me anything, other than the fact I will loathe character creation. Combat description doesn't make any fucking sense, it doesn't clearly say anything about the camera. Of course it's nice to see no level scalling(JESUS) and multiple endings, on the other hand slow-down when popping someone's head is trying too hard, and about the multiple solutions... we'll see.
