-Title does say "Fallout"
BS. If I made a Watchman sequel, and made it into some lame pure action, no shooter piece of crap, it wouldn't be considered Watchman. FO3 is NOT Fallout. They can call it that, but it isn't.
Fallout is NOT a FPS with RPG elements. Fallout is a turn based RPG, with at least an attempt at well written dialogue, and is targeted towards the hardcore RPG fanbase. FO3 is none of these.-This is part of the Fallout series; thus Fallout is a "FPS with some slapped on top RPG elements."
-True in terms of form, but have you ever looked at the story as a decagon? In that shape it is ****ing brilliant!
A story is more than just path A to B. It is characters you can relate, a series of events that touch you. Stories are a message, a way on the author's part to teach something.
FO3 does not have a good story in any way, shape, or form. If it was published, it would quickly be scorned. It would of had been the Eragon of Post-Apocalyptic Sci-Fi.
