These are sure to join Dead Money and Lair of the Shadow Broker in the category of 'DLC for games I really like that I buy and never get around to actually playing'.

I guess a thing to note is that JE Sawyer was the lead on Honest Hearts and MCA headed up the last two.

Super crazy thought, what if Obsid is releasing these DLC quick smart/closing the door on F:NV because they're working on Fallout 4 using the creation engine.

did they ever announce a FO4? I know its planned for Some day over the horizon but I'd be curious to know where it takes place.

Honestly the earliest I'd expect to hear about any upcoming Fallout game would be at E3 and I think even that's highly unlikely, given that they still have DLC and Skyrim to promote.

If Bethsoft's doing FO4 (and they are, let's not kid ourselves) it's probably just started in (or is very close to) preproduction, since Skyrim is probably close to wrapping up.

Also, per Chris Avellone's twitter, the new DLC volumes will be unlike Dead Money in that they will open up new areas you can traverse to/from the Mojave at will, ala Point Lookout.

Quote from: Avellooone
"In Dead Money, we did (loot stripping) for the survival/horror experience. None of the future DLCs strip gear from a player, although in Honest Hearts, because of the caravan journey you're on (and the distance) you can only carry a certain weight limit (which can be increased with skills and perks)," posted Avellone in explanation.

"In both Honest Hearts and Old World Blues, you'll find out fast that you're in a difficult situation and need to finish the adventure once begun - but both adventures take place in an open world free-roaming location (similar to Point Lookout)."

"Once there, you can tackle your objectives in any order or ignore them entirely. After completing the adventures, you can return freely to both locations from the Mojave," he continued on. "In Old World Blues, it's very, very easy to return anytime you want, and we tried to make it as easy as possible for people to do so."

"Lonesome Road is a bit different. As the name suggests, it's more a road that leads to an end destination (though not like any road you may have seen before), so it's structured a bit differently - you can travel it, and come back anytime you want. You can also return to it after the adventure is over."

Honest Hearts is def. out on XBL, but whether it's on Steam seems to depend on your time zone.

That was actually really good but Zion was wasted on gamebryo.

In other news, the earth revolves around the sun and interplay is dead in the water again. Really, I don't see this as a problem as all the Black Isle ppl are at Obsidian anyway and I really don't want n MMO.

If that article is right about interplay going under means that Bethesda gets the rights for an mmo... I really don't want Bethsoft to be focusing on MMOs.

Bethsoft wouldn't be focusing on MMOs, they're only a publisher.  And since they're owned by Zenimax, it'll likely go to one of the other studios Zenimax owns.  Bethesda Game Studios happens to share a building with them, but they probably won't be the ones touching it.

I have to say it was a bad move on interplay to start an MMO. They should have came out with a new stand alone FO game first.  Not because I dont think they could make it but if they came out with a successful game in recent years and proved to the investors that its not a money pit.

Wait, I'm confused Christine and the courier hadn't met until the events of Dead Money and didn't she get Vera Keyes voice towards the end of Dead Money. So, shouldn't Old World Blues take place after Dead Money?

Good question!

Did the Qore lady VA Vera Keyes? If not, she might show up as the recorded voice of pre-voice swapped Christine.

IMDB lists Laura Bailey as the voice actres of Julie Farkas, Lt. Carrie Boyd, Dr. Usanagi, Female Courier and Vera Keyes. If the Qore lady is Bailey the I guess she's both the voice of Vera and Christine Royce. Still, little bothered by the timeline.

Also, scorpitrons. Well played, Obsid.

EDIT: Christine Royce's pre OWB and the (light switch) voice is done by Veronica Belmont, the Qore lady. My money's on clone but I'm hoping that this will open up some changes to the epilogue and dialogue options (not going to happen, time + budget + whatever).

got paid on friday so i splurged and bought Honest Hearts and Old World Blues. currently going through OWB with my level 30-something lesbian scientist, Shelly Sundial. Dead Money's Holorifle makes everything (in the NV wasteland, and in the Big Empty) explode almost instantly, so nothing is really all that challenging...until I run out of MF cells and have to switch to another weapon, anyway, at which point I can barely dent anything.

really enjoying the premise and the area so far. only complaint is that the intro monologue "conversation" thing with the Think Tank is really really long. crazy long.

Goddamnit I bought the DLC just the day before they doubled the discount

IT KEEPS HAPPENING TO ME

Also this game is just a terrible time-sink in general. Continuing on from my tradition of naming all my female characters Dude McGuy and Bro Radface this game has probably netted me about 110 hours of non-productivity and I haven't even finished the main storyline yet

Just goddamn

that's what they do. i'm around 130 hours into my second NV character, after putting around 90 or 100 into my first one.

i've probably put around 250-300 hours into F3. same with Oblivion (maybe closer to 400 with that one). that's almost a thousand hours spent wandering empty countrysides and rooting around in mostly empty containers.

goddamn is right
