Diablo 3 vs Fallout 3

A Destructoid Blog writer shares his views on the news of Diablo 3's recent announcement and how it relates to another favorite franchise of his, Fallout, and how poorly Fallout 3 compares to Blizzard's new game, especially in regards to its marketing and announcements.

Diablo 3 VS Fallout 3 = Diablo > Fallout
Blizzard VS Bethesda = Blizzard > Bethesda

But I will get both.

MK_Red6532d ago

You are absolutly wrong about Fallout. Sure, Blizzard is indeed > Bethesda BUT...

BUT... Diablo is nothing compared to Fallout. Diablo is just a fun action RPG while Fallout 1 & 2 are the peaks of PC / Western RPG.

Rick Astley6532d ago

Yeah well I'm not too happy about Fallout being turned into an FPS. I prefer Diablo.

MK_Red6532d ago

Well, I'm not talking about Fallout 3 and Diablo 3. In that case, of course you are right. A real isometric Diablo 3 is > than a FPS Fallotu 3 from Bethesda so no argument there :D

But in case of classics, I have to go with Fallout 1-2 > Diablo 1-2.

Daver6532d ago

@1.1

You are wrong... Fallout 3 is nothing compared to Diablo 3...
Diablo is a PC classic, way bigger than fallout.. Everything Blizzard is touching is turning into gold

Chronopath6531d ago

You really cant compare or even begin to contrast the 2 thats like comparing and contrasting these 2 images...

Awesome article. Seriously, seeing Diablo 3 just made me cry. How awesome Fallout 3 could have been if it was isometric? If the original devs had made it or at least some more respecting dev and not a First Person loving one.

My respect for Destructoid is now fully restored.

mepsipax6532d ago (Edited 6532d ago )

Diablo III is for the fans
Fallout III is pissing the fans off
It's always better when the original dev makes the game. I can't wait to see what Ubisoft turns Deus Ex 3 into, maybe, a isometric romance simulator? Well, we'll see when it's released but to me Fallout III is a kick in the nuts as a fan, sure it will be an alright game but still, maybe I'll just wear a cup while I'm playing.
edit: oh and the fallout series is better than diablo, diablo is fun and addictive, but doesn't really provide the depth and sheer awesomeness factor of fallout.

MK_Red6532d ago

As awlays spot on. Seriously, I want to give you more bubbles but can't since I can give one bubble to same person only every once in a while.

Relcom6532d ago (Edited 6532d ago )

Awesome lol

Relcom6532d ago (Edited 6532d ago )

They are very different games and are not comparable really in any way. I'm so happy to have both coming, thats all that is important.

Personally i like Diablo more(barley, i love fallout's humor so much)I'm a loot guy and Diablo is all about the loot and PVP.

Great atricle Destructoid, and i agree 100%

meepmoopmeep6532d ago

let's just hope this dev-bashing trend doesn't get both Blizzard and Bethesda infected.

both look like great games i'll be playing

Would be nice if they had New Vegas ready as well, especially because of the show.

Hopefully this doesn't have the same performance issues as Oblivion Remastered.

cloganart129d ago

I haven't seen anything on these performance issues? What's been going on?

walken7128d ago

Probably the Unreal Engine issues, I skipped it for that reason.

Snookies12130d ago (Edited 130d ago )

Throw in all the DLC as well, like Oblivion and I'll definitely bite. I recall having one trophy left to unlock on the PS3 version with 100+ hours in my save. When my save file got corrupted, lol. Very sad day.

To be fair though, Bethesda was trash at Playstation ports anyway.

Michiel1989129d ago

all devs sucked at porting to ps3 for the first like 3 years because no one had experience with the cell architecture. Even 1st party took a long while to get proficient with it, the difference between uncharted 1 and 3 is massive for example.

Extermin8or3_129d ago

Oh oh oh I can do this too. GTA 7 will be made at some point in the future. Fallout 5 will enter development in the future too

jznrpg129d ago

Everyone there should know most gamers want New Vegas and Morrowind more than anything.

Christopher129d ago

Which is why we won't get them. Gotta keep floating "support this one and it might happen".

BlaqMagiq1129d ago

Can't wait. Won't have to go back to my PS3 to play this when it comes out.
