Obsidian spent long hours crafting an engaging role-playing experience but didn’t hesitate to add in secrets and Easter eggs. While some gamers complained about the gameplay glitches and awkward animations, they stayed for the intriguing storyline. The Fallout series had previously emphasized a “post-apocalyptic role-playing game.” When Obsidian, a studio containing some of Fallout’s original creators, announced they would be working with Bethesda to develop Fallout: New Vegas, loyal fans were thrilled.įallout: New Vegas combined both elements from the defunct Fallout 3: Van Buren and Bethesda’s gameplay engine. Loyal fans didn’t complain about the gameplay as much as they did the storyline and lack of role-playing possibilities.
Meanwhile, new fans were attached to the change of isometric gameplay to an option between first person and third person view. Fans of the first two games didn’t like the new approach Bethesda took with the series.
