Fallout 3's problem isnt with the graphics, its with the story and game design.
Biggest issue is that it feels like you're playing a game that has 100 individual, isolated and sepearate stories in it. Nothing is connected to eachother, so nothing feels alive, or organic, or with a flow.
And a doubt a Remaster will fix any of that. What it needs is a Remake, and I'm not sure Bethesdas capable of that after seeing the pinnacle of their capability with Starfield.
And I'm not saying that to be internet cool and hate on a thing. I'm saying that as someone who has loved the franchise since he got Fallout 1 shortly after its release, in 1998, and wants to see things done right by it.
What an odd stance.
Care to actually share with the class why you think a remake weird?
This is what I find odd. Isn't this the nature of every rpg? You're basically saying FO3 is bad because it's an rpg. How is this different from any other open world game?
Because in well written games stuff you do affects the world, even if its minor NPC barks making comments about things. Which does wonders for making the world feel vibrant, connected, and alive.
In Fallout 3 everything is in its own isolated bubble. It has zero impact, meaning, or effect on anything else anywhere in the game outside of its bubble.
