I guess post-X fp-rpgs in an open-ish world-setting is a new subgenre now…

IMO we really should try to look at these games as “new ones” and not put them into a Schublade (pigeonhole). Please correct my phrasing if I’m wrong.

It’s its own style, gameplay and story. Sure we can make comparisons but we shouldn’t expect them to be like the games we compare them with. As an example, Avowed was compared to Skyrim and people immediately jumped the train and accused it of being too linear, not big enough and not having much choices. Undeserved because it’s nothing like Skyrim, at least for me.

I hope Rebellion didn’t chase any trend and had its own ideas but we will see. And btw: never, NEVER preorder!

IDK, reading this really solidified the idea that it actually is just Fallout: Britain. Gameplay is incredibly similar, and there appear to be a lot of instances of “Fallout has X, so this game has X too.” Kinda like “I will copy your homework but change it a bit so its not too suspicious.”

Also, a spelling mistake in literally the first sentence is not a good look for whoever the Editor is.
