Ha ha, every place is a good place for complaints about Fallout 3, in my world.
Anyway, one of the coolest half-thought-out features in the original Fallout was the way they let you break down doors. Unfortunately, the AI wasn't programmed to do anything except move and shoot and shoot up, so you could just lock the door to a guy's house (using your lockpick skill) and plink at him through the windows until he ran out of drugs and died. Arcanum solved this problem by letting characters jump through windows, and Resident Evil 4 proved that window-jumping technology works in 3D. So there's really no excuse for the sorry state of doors in Fallout 3. Half of them don't even open, for fuck's sake! People just fade out on one side and fade back in on the other. Look, I just want to chain shut the emergency exits to some post-apocalyptic coffee house and watch all the 2070s 1950s hipster beatniks claw helplessly at the ironic Hawaiian decor after I set them on fire with my mental powers and matches and gasoline. Is that too much to ask? Or should I just go back to staring wistfully at this huge pile of coffee mugs I keep in my Megaton shack and when Fawkes asks me what I'm thinking about, say "Nothing"? |
