Moriarty has an Irish accent. Odd.

What's odd is that there's an Irishman around, not that the Irishman has an Irish accent.

Does he ever say he's Irish? It might just be an accent.

Moriarty is an Irish name, so he is either Irish or has adopted the name and accent to distinguish himself. If the latter, this might be inspired (in terms of design) by Loxley from F1, who models himself after Robin Hood, going so far as to adopt a hokey English accent.

The latter wouldn't surprise me. People in Fallout are odd. What I meant, though, was more along the lines that his family could have been Irish before the Great War.

According to this, he is indeed an immigrant:

Yes, I'm sure Bethesda is totally going to deviate from whatever marketing plan they've formed because now there's a formal petition asking them to.  Also, I have no idea what the author is talking about with that leak being "intentional."  Supposed leak, I should clarify.  The fact that Bethesda still hasn't confirmed that it's legit seems to indicate that it's another hoax, and that the fanbase is even more gullible than I thought.

Where ever it may take place, I hope they're making i on a new and better engine instead of just a slightly modified Skyrim engine, and I would like to see the game world to be bigger and more to scale with it's real-life counterpart. It would be massive, but awesome. But this is Bethesda, so I guess I should just keep dreaming.

I would like to see Bethesda use an engine that doesn't suck in genral. That'd be a nice deviation.

Also, I don't really understand people who start petitions for every little thing. Sometimes it makes some sense, like fans wanting to show a company there's enough interest in a game to warrant its localization or something, but stuff like this...yeah.

If I was going to start a Fallout petition, it'd be asking Bethesda to give Obsidian the rights to all the Van Buren materials. Sure, they're already slated to co-develop Wasteland 2 with inXile (which is going to be like a real Black Isle reunion, unlike the practically in-name-only team Interplay recently started*) but man, Van Buren!

*Maybe Project V13 won't suck. Not holding my breath, but there's a chance.

Am I the only one who loves Fallout 3 and likes Bethesda in general?

Yeah the engine is terrible, but I always thought the awkward faces and movement was part of the charm.

Of course you're not the only one.  The mainstream gaming press, for example, loves Bethesda.  I've often seen articles describing them as "one of the best" developers out there.  Stop laughing, I'm being quite serious.

No, I'm pretty sure most people agree with you, in fact most people seem to think F3 is a big improvement over the original games. And there's no end of people positively gushing about Bethesda.

If F3 wasn't good, explain all those publications calling it GOTY.

They were all lying. They also lied about a lot of other games.

Um, I meant here on these forums...

F3 is a huge improvement to the original series. I can't even get more than a half hour into that poo pile known as the original Fallout.

You just don't get it.  It's over your head.  Go back to Larry the Cable Guy.
