that is the main reason for me, plus the era

While I am much more of a fan of the fantasy/medieval era, the Fallout, post-apocalypse universe is equally as cool. Fallout is all about the crazy perks you can get, which can completely change your character. The humor in Fallout is also great!

That said, New Vegas is basically an expansion to Fallout 3, which was a bit disappointing. But it was still fun and I played through it twice

As far as Dragon Age 2, it was made by the laziest developers that I have ever seen. I beat it in 36 hours, and you stay in the same f-ing town the ENTIRE TIME. There are zero new areas after you are 4-5 hours into the game. Very, very sad.

Is this game going to be all first person, or is there an option to use a third person view instead? I'm getting this game either way, I just never liked the idea of first person RPG games.

**HighJump31** · 06-09-2011, 05:47 PM

When they made this engine, they really worked on the third person camera. Oblivion and Fallout's third person gameplay was pretty bad, but since there are a ton of third person fans, they really worked on that aspect of the game. I haven't heard Bethesda say "playing in third person will be just as good as first person", but I do know they really wanted to make this game almost equal from both perspectives.
