What game series do you think needs better writing

So massively disagree about Mega Man X series, I couldn't give a :bou::bou::bou::bou: how crap the stories were, hell the less care given the better afaic. All that matters is the gameplay being incredibly rage inducing, and Zero being a harbinger of destruction. Series is perfect as it is.

I thought maybe it was the black sheep of the series and took at look at the others, but no, they're all pretty terrible. If we're talking about giving a series better writing let's give it to the ones that really really need it. Not the ones that are pretty good but not perfect :(

I've tried to block SO out of my memory. Now that you've reminded me, I'd like to change my vote.

Fallout, but I'll stick with FO3 since more than 6 people have played it.

The game had a good idea for a plot but it was executed terribly imo, and (SPOILER)James dying had zero impact. I really didn't find any of the characters all that interesting outside of Mr. Crowley and Mr. Burke, though a lot of the minor characters got a laugh out of me.

Then of course half the Fallout canon is contradicted in this game which makes for horrible continuity (not that I care, personally). Slightly related, depending on how you played, characters would talk to you about things that you either never did or didn't even happen yet, which kind of :bou::bou::bou::bou:s on the whole "choose your own adventure" idea.

Speaking of which, the DLCs. Broken Steel awkwardly tries to expand on the story but erases any things you may have done as an evil character. (SPOILER)Not blowing up Raven Rock yet Liberty Prime does while you were comatose and tainted Aqua Pura not having anywhere close to the effect that Eden was talking about. The biggest one of course is that you can't join the Enclave, even if you do everything in their favor :(. And since when does Radiation poisoning make you slip into a coma for two weeks, only to recover with no negative effects? Point Lookout had a nice little side story to it but nothing that Bethesda didn't do in Shivering Isles. Never bothered with the other DLCs though since they seem to be nothing beyond reskinned items and more bugs.

I did like the little bits of information and background in the various terminals, and the hidden dialogue options for many characters. Having to somehow convince NPCs to reveal information to you rather than randomly blurt it out made the interactions feel a bit more worthwhile.

Another thing is...we...ll.....I...uh...................................

Whoops, must've froze.
