FALLOUT 3

[OxBlood]

I do have a problem with the world itself in Fallout 3. Look at it. It is supposed to be 200+ years after the disaster, yet all humanity manages to do is grab some scrap metal and about 4 houses and just sit around, waiting to die? That´s the impression I have. There is NO sign of a rebuilding society.

If a group of people were forced to live in a barren wasteland for 10+ years, the area they live in would look totally different. There would be no rubble and debris everywhere, no wooden leftover parts of houses with parts of roof sticking out of the ground. There would be at least traces of agriculture. Just look at Megaton for example. 50+ years of people living there and all they managed to cobble together are those filthy sheds any group of refugees can build better within a week? Come on.

I don´t demand realism from a Videogame, but they should have made it something like 10-20 years after the disaster and then make up some strange explanation why the radiation is low enough to survive. But 200 years? No Sir.

But if I ignore this major flaw, I really do like the game, it´s fun so far (16 hours). I do wish, that I could mod the guns though, but you can´t have everything I guess.
