How the hell can someone compare Diablo to Fallout?! hahaha. I know it’s that idiotic “RPG” umbrella term that means “anything fantasy”, or “my character has hitpoints!” (…but no personality, or morality, or choice apart from whether to smash the barrel or-…. no wait, they always smash the barrel. )

To the reviewer, Stilgar, you’re entitled to your opinion. Still… you’re wrong like a kitten killing.

It’s sad that we’ll probably never see another game this good again. Fallout 2 missed the mark by a large margin, imo, by adding too much empty content and combat. RPGs aren’t about combat. Give us enough to make us struggle in the beginning and slowly develop into a waste-walking god then end the game.

You don’t need stupid amounts of content when the game has unlimited re playability.

See: Red Dead Revolver, Knights of the Old Republic and Command and Conquer.

Compare to KOTR 2 and Tiberium Sun.

Unlockables, achievement rankings/tracking, live action cut scenes and the like are signs of poor game design! If the game is fun we don’t want to be pulled out of it, and if the game needs them to stay entertaining please use the waste bin, it’s there for a reason!
