And by the creator of the elder scrolls série.
Those guys have some serious references when it comes to non linear single player RPG.
I wonder if they will be continuing black isle work, or starting something new.
Either way it should be good.

Of course it's going to be 3D
You may be able to get the hardcore fans with old school stuff but they do have to earn money with the game. Old school style graphics arent appealing to the average player.

MiniFAQ off Homelanfed (http://www.homelanfed.com/index.php?id=24639)
HomeLAN - How much input will Interplay have in the development of Fallout 3? Can they say "yes" or "no" to things like game design, story, etc?
Pete Hines - We have complete creative control over the development of the game.
HomeLAN - Will any team members from the previous Fallout games be involved in Fallout 3?
Pete Hines - Too early to talk about stuff like that.
HomeLAN - Ok. Final question..has development of Fallout 3 actually begun and can you give us any idea of a release date?
Pete Hines - I'll take the last one first. WAY too early to talk release dates. Yeah, we've started pre-production on Fallout 3 development.

Agree with you, in fact, my hopes are staying firmly in neutral.

What made it great was the execution of the game, which was nothing like any other company had really developed before (the engine was mimicked but never felt the same). The only way any fallout game will be great is if they get that interaction with previous Interplay developers, which from this interview seems like they might not do. If they were definitely going to then they would've stated so, because that is very important in people's eyes, but instead they gave a bullshit delayed answer.
In short, you can get your hopes up, but I won't  |
True. One thing that got me worried is that there are a lot of things i found very unique about the fallout series. One thing is the "fatalities", when you shoot someone dead there were those awesome death animations, which i find will be tough to translate into 3d. Also the renderings of the background really gave a very good feel of where you where. In a post nuclear world. This can be tricky to implete into 3d, not impossible but tricky.
So until i see some screenshots and videos, I'm a bit on the sceptic side.
But beth. software has a knack of making huge worlds with rich contents so thats a huge plus(daggerfall universe, duh!). Hopefully they will do their research and do the fallout series the justice it deserves.

Fallout should be turn based only combat, it should be isometric. Morrowind was none of these things. Morrowind had dumb forgettable NPCs, Fallout's NPCs were great. We need to make a stand.
Also, Troika almost got it. They had a backer, but Bethsoft made a last minute, unbeatable bid. This news makes me hate Bethsoft. Why don't you give it to Troika? They were so close.

I hope it's not another shitty 2D isometric deal. In 2007 or so, when this comes out, if it's 2D isometric everyone but the hardcore fans will laugh and it will hardly sell. I hope Bethsoft realise this.

The fact it is them doing it seals the 3D fate.
Unless they have some new fangled engine up their sleave I can't see them advancing the genre much if at all.
A 2D engine would allow them to focus on the details and artistic value, or at the very least a 2D/3D hybrid like Soldiers.

Personally I dont like Bethesda... Morrowind, Daggerfall, Arena, these types of gameplay are their forte, and I hope they dont turn fallout into a first-person non-linear rpg with random quest/NPC generators.
Bethesda makes great non-linear games, but I dont believe they have the right to call their games RPG's because they lack any creative storytelling and interesting characters, and thats the heart and soul of any good RPG.
Bethesda is dead-set that RPG's must be non-linear to be good, and for that reason I dont trust their developement.
Not going to get my hopes up, for me, Fallout ended after 2, and I doubt this game will re-light the flame.

Well, I’m not so sure it's such great news. Don't get me wrong, I’m happy with the development of fallout3 but it's not by blackisle. That company created fallout and only they know how to make it so divine imho.
I think that this game will rock only if some or all of the old blackisle employees, will get involved or even work on the dev team. Otherwise the game might lose its charm. (Please don’t kill the Pip-Boy!)

yes those are old screenshots. gamespy interview with bethesda PR(I think he was PR, probably was at least) said that they intend to use their new technology for the new fallout game, AND hopefully bring it to several platforms (as in other than just PC). Sorry but I really don't want to play a fallout version of morrowind, mainly because I hatzor morrowind's fighting system and just the general feel of playing the main game.

I just orgasmed mentally.
If Bethsoft will learn from their mistakes from previous games, this can just quite be the finest RPG ever made. This fucking made my day.
EDIT: Also, the thought of a first person Fallout suddenly seems all the more appealing.

Yeah in the slashdot article they said they just purchased the license to make the game so they're going to be starting from scratch.

That's simlpy not true. Morrowind does have an enthralling main plot and does not have a random quest generator (though its previous and quite old sequels did have). IMO Morrowind's story was one of the bests in its genre. It was quite creative and the most important characters (those that could be called NPCs not just one of the crowd) were indeed interesting. An old imperial spy, a millenia old half-god, a lychantropy infected chieftain, a quite perverted senator etc.
I like the idea that Bethesda is developing Fallout 3. They've proven themselves talented and reliable. And they have the financial resources too.

I hated Morrowind because of its dialogue system, which hadnt seen much change from Daggerfall. It was a horrible system that robbed almost every NPC of personality, they all said the same thing, and provided little choice in the direction of the conversation, ask for quest, ask for info, or go away.
If Bethesda does this to Fallout, it will ruin the game, if they implement their "classic" dialogue system into it, it cant possibly be anywhere near as good as previous Fallouts, and thats why I dont trust them to do a good sequel.
