well then correct me, what did New Vegas do to top that trio?

Identical engine to 3 but more buggy, incredibly boring map, rushed design on every level, a story about a gang that dresses like elvis for no reason and another just dresses like Roman's for no reason and has nonsensical philosophies that game openly acknowledges makes no sense when relevant but yet pretends Is somehow super successful , arguably the least interesting player character in a of RPG history

Same quest design as the other games
No interesting weapons
Same companion system only inferior to 4 and OW

Zero new concepts or innovations

What did it did do better?

I swear people only pretend NV is a masterpiece because Bethesda didn't make it

If tomorrow Bethesda revealed they made NV and Obsidian made 3, you'd 180 so fast

No other game listed has any difficulty explaining its status including fucking Tetris.

Fallout: New Vegas.

And call it nostalgia if you want, but there seriously hasn't been a video game ending since (at least that I've played) that tops Final Fantasy 6. I've yet to see an ending sequence give more-or-less equal weight to its full cast of protagonists in such an artful and well-constructed fashion, something that by all rights should not have been possible on the SNES. And the music that fires up when the credits start to roll is so triumphant and uplifting that it rarely fails to get to me, no matter how many times I listen to it (bonus that you get to watch the Falcon soaring through the skies instead of the standard blackscreen).

6 never really did much for me.

On endings though it was interesting to me that the ending involving joining the legion seemed to have more net benefit for the world though it negatively impacted most side characters.

I don't know how to put what it did, but I don't know anything that topped the Prince of Persia series in it's combo of parkour, close quarters combat, and looks
Uncharted is probably similar, but not close quarters.

Yeah I meant to say that in my initial post. Specifically the war of lions version. Only game of that genre to top tactics is tactics itself with added content like animated cutscenes

REMake for "traditional" survival horror.

The sound design and visuals are amazing to this day, as is the atmosphere of constant tension (since each enemy encounter felt like it could kill).

no, Tetris still outclasses every other block puzzle game by a mile. Its the closest thing we have to a perfect video game, genuinely.

You gonna try to tell me its actually Panel de Pon or Meteos? Not in this universe
NGL, as long as we're counting new editions of Tetris like Grandmaster 3, This is absolutely true. I'd rather play Tetris GM3 than anything else inspired by Tetris.

h23456bca posted...
Id say as far as RTS games go, nothing really ever topped AoEll or WC3
Honestly, the Annihilation series tops it imo, as well as Homeworld and the Dawn of War games. But then I never really loved AoEII or WC3 as much as the others.

Zero is amazing, but I can see some people being turned off by its decision to gate getting boss weapons behind maintaining an S rank, to the point where doing poorly enough in the first few missions or using too many elves basically locks you out of them for the entire game.
Wait I have to get an S to get the weapons

How much of the first game am I missing out on because I suck

IDK about this, but only because there's some amazing competition in the genre, even if it's mostly dead now. All depends on what you're looking for, even Star Citizen has its own unique strengths(and nothing else to mention).

So I went and double-checked, and in zero 1 maintaining s rank just causes all the bosses to use a special s rank attack against you. If you can beat the whole game with s rank you get a special cyber elf that, if leveled up all the way, gives you a move that grants you temporary invincibility.

It isn't until the later games that you start getting actual rewards.
