I thought 'There's no way I can play a game with these creatures in it.'
I just saw pictures and never encountered them ingame, but centaurs gave me nightmares for months.įeral ghouls were essentially a formula 1 model of zombies and due to a recently acquired phobia of cockroaches, the redroaches were not helpful either. Until I found the game's wiki entry on enemies. The story of locating the main character's dad struck a deep cord and I thought I was ready to turn the Wasteland upside down to find him. Moria's enthusiasm for her research was contagious and filled with so much gleeful wonder that any caution towards my character promptly left. The focus was on the roleplaying aspect and not in a 'shoot everything you as fast as you can' manner that so many similar games had.ĭespite my intense fear of zombies all I wanted to do after meeting Gob was give him a big hug. VATS - finally there was a game with shooting elements that didn't need superfast reflexes. I got as far as Megaton at the time and fell in love with some of the game features. I've had an intense love-hate relationship with Fallout 3 for a long time.
