mrmarioanonym: Whether you like it or not, one thing should be clear to everyone: The design in Fallout 3 was great, something special. Who can forget seeing Megaton for the first time.
One of the best things about Fallout 3, and the thing most responsible for keeping me exploring the wasteland for over 100 hours was the exploration itself. The environment was inspired. No doubt Adam Adamowicz was one of the key reasons for that success. Despite being a better game overall, in terms of environmental design, New Vegas was barely adequate. The difference is profound.
