I love the way Fallout 3 is criticized

Could've just said what we said many times already and spared yourself all this typing.

You mean he could have said very little, without any explanation, and portrayed a baseless claim as fact? Do you need a voice over too? Fucking start reading, start typing, and stop supporting the dumbing down of criticism!

Blackhart is a shining example of what it means to be a boy lover with substance and depth. Hah!

... fuck, cigarettes were used as money in WW II prisoners camps without either the Germany Government, the Red Cross or the Allies Governments saying for the prisoners to use it as money.

The daily bread = 3 cigarettes

300 cigarettes = a bottle of vodka

Why not? Everyone demands "constructive criticism" or else you are classified as a troll, but the same rule does not apply for praising something.

OT: do you like the smell of shit?

Excessive praise is just as stupid. You just don't see as much of it here.

Alot of the "stupid" things from Fallout 3 were equalled in 2. A talking plant, a shaman who contacts you with telepathy, good and evil Kung Fu armies, etc.

Dialogue is of course worse than old Fallouts, better than expected though. Skill checks are nice.

I am playing on hard and I am happy that things are fucking me up good at a low level.

Fixed to make sense and
True stupidity shows itself in an unwillingness to learn from previous mistakes.

(Although I disagree on what you see as "stupid".)

Yeah, but ciggies have an intrinsic value. They only loose that if everyone gives up smoking which is hardly likely in a WW2 POW camp. They kinda 'back' themselves.

And again, here's the value of the cigarette according to Auschwitz survivor Vladek Spiegelman:

The daily bread = 3 cigarettes

300 cigarettes = a bottle of vodka

He got his wife transferred to a different block for 300 cigarettes and a bottle of vodka. The Jews also traded whatever valuables they had left with the Polish workers.

 

[BLOBERT]

None of the stuff bothers me as excessively stupid, but picking apart Fallout 3 based on "realism" is silly if you hold up the other 2 as ideals.

I'm pretty sure you just missed my point.
