from what I can understand the appeal of new vegas is basically "I was too old when it came out to get it
"Get it/enjoy it/take anything from it than "mediocre RPG with bad FPS attached
the deeply uncharitable/Gamer Flame War person in me wants to say that Pillars Of Eternity and Planescape do all these "themes" twice as well with more engaging gameplay systems but you all just want to point floaty guns at mad max extras as enemies
@vriska only thing that matters is that it made Todd pissed at Oblivion because they made a better game than him
@Mr_NutterButter Oblivion is the best game beth as ever made (which is a low bar
@Mr_NutterButter i thought he was mad because it was better than FO3 (which again, low bar

@sj_zero @Mr_NutterButter ngl daggerfall isn't actually "good" either, and if the same game came out today people would crucify the procgen empty open world (look at starfield
@vriska could be either, but it's funny to assume both.
Best part is whenever Bethesda tries to release Morrowind they'll be outdone by a bunch of modders who have been working on a remake of the game for 8 years.
@Mr_NutterButter im kind of under the impression that bethesda has never made a "good" game an that all the praise the early titles get is because they were (at the time) pushing the boundaries of what games could do/be
@vriska @sj_zero I think Bethesda has kind of always been out of date except there hasn't really been any game competitor in the past they could do what they could do on a large scale but now that we've seen things like boulders gate and other developers like no man's sky it really shines a light on their incompetence
