    Interview Deiley on His Deathclaws

    I think the biggest issue with canonizing Fallout Tactics is that basically the Brotherhood of Steel, at least the midwest chapter, pretty much owns the midwest at this point. Honestly, as much retconing and foolish stuff that Bethesda has done with the Brotherhood of Steel between Fallout 3...

    John Deiley, creator of the talking deathclaws, explains their background and puts Chris Avellone on notice

    Considering that Fallout 76's main threat are the dragons from skyrim with a new skin, you may be on to something.

    Volition shut down by THQ Nordic

    Saints Row the Third was awesome. Saints Row IV's concept should have stayed an expansion and they should have made a proper SR4. I think being forced to make Enter the Dominatrix in to Saints Row IV is why they blew up the Earth. The writers of the second Planet of the Apes back in the 1960s...

    Diablo with Hellfire vs Diablo 2 with LOD

    It's kind of funny how much Blizzard North absolutely hated the Hellfire expansion, then adopted things from Hellfire. For example, the Barbarian first appears in Diablo: Hellfire. The Worldstone was in Hellfire as a means of transfering items between your characters. There's a few others, but...

    I only recently found out about the Starborn thing in Starfield. I couldn't believe it. I thought it was the person commenting on the guy making a joke until he kept going with it so I looked it up.

    Confessions of a dirty gamer

    Eye of the Beholder is why I own a GBA. I'll do you one better. I think the Sega Genesis version of the Buck Rogers Gold Box game is the better one. Going underwater in any game is scary. The Rogue is the easiest one! I didn't like System Shock 2, Deus Ex, and I'm not a fan of Gothic because...

    Interview Deiley on His Deathclaws

    Oh, I agree that they were a small force in Fallout 1, but they were a small force with Power Armor and lots of firepower. There's around two dozen paladins with Power Armor that you can see in Lost Hills, and most of the rest have upgraded Combat Armor which would be a huge advantage against...

    Interview Deiley on His Deathclaws

    I somewhat wonder if the Brotherhood of Steel has less of a presence in Fallout 2 because the Brotherhood would be highly interested in a lot of the things going on in that game. If the Brotherhood were as powerful as they were in the first game, you'd have to wonder why they didn't wipe out the...

    Stories which in no way tie in to that TV show for those juiciest of juicy clicks.

    Volition shut down by THQ Nordic

    That's why I'm wondering if those are actual sales or giveways. https://gg.deals/game/saints-row/ According to this, it wasn't on sale until it hit the keyshops, but I'm pretty sure it was on sale much sooner than that. I remember it being on sale within a few months of release...

    Interview Deiley on His Deathclaws

    I hated those things. I'd be willing to bet they killed quite a few players the first time they played the game. They're a fairly crazy encounter that early on considering you don't have much in the way of any protection versus a fire attack until much later on and almost no hit points. The...

    John Deiley, creator of the talking deathclaws, explains their background and puts Chris Avellone on notice

    Which makes you wonder why The Gamer is even talking to the guy since he hasn't been in game development for two decades. I can see a niche site having interest in what he says, like a Fallout fan site, but it's really odd for a general gaming website like The Gamer giving him the time of day...

    Which CRPG that doesn't use D&D rules has the deepest character building?

    I've always like the Fallout system and the spin offs of that system, Wasteland 2 and Wasteland 3. There's other notables like SSI's Buck Rogers games, Underrail, and so on as well. Character systems for games, typically isometric, in settings that don't have magic spells. When you first load up...

    Best Owlcat Game So Far

    That's a shame, since that's one of those things I really never liked about the BioWare AD&D games. BioWare can't help themselves from making things as uber-epic as possible, so it comes off as playing AD&D with a teenage DM. I also really like Pathfinder, since I think 3.5e was the peak of...

    John Deiley, creator of the talking deathclaws, explains their background and puts Chris Avellone on notice

    Deiley says in the interview that he was questioning Chris Avellone on why Avellone didn't want any pagans at all, asking him what happened to all the pagans when the bomb dropped and how none of them were left. That's honestly a shit take, since it's not like there's a huge amount of pagans in...
