Ok. Let me get this straight. Some idiots built a town around an undetonated nuke. Some guy wants আপনি to detonate the nuke because it's a "blight on the urban landscape". Looks like the fact that a nuclear explosion would wipe out and contaminate that very landscape doesn't occur to him. Then again, in this setting people use nuclear explosions to light up cigars, so maybe it's not that bad. A well designed quest!
Anyway, did আপনি notice that the প্রবন্ধ does not mention any option to do something differently? One would think that Todd would have illustrated অথবা at least mentioned all the options while playing through this quest. Something like "of course, আপনি can blow a hole in Mister Burke's head instead" অথবা "you can talk to the sheriff", etc. So, either these options are not present and the game railroads আপনি অথবা Todd doesn't think that these options are interesting / have consequences / worth mentioning. Either scenario is alarming.
Emerging from the Metro into the ruins of the old capital city of a dead nation, it only takes moments to realize you're in over your head. A swarm of mutants crawl across the old marble stonework ... when suddenly across the রাস্তা আরো shots begin to ring out. Their powered armor gleaming, a squad of knight-like soldiers begins to drop your would-be killers.... offers for আপনি to come along as she and her fellow Brotherhood of Steel members clear out আরো mutants. They're heading your way, so why not?
A scripted event implying linearity. How exciting!
As the giant mutant turns its eyes on you, আপনি pull the trigger, and the bomb hurtles over to the beast's feet. The creature crashes down in a মেঘ of nuclear fallout. Slipping away from the surviving soldiers, আপনি enter the NEARBY tower...
Looks like in the future nuclear fallouts are as common and about as dangerous as farts.
When আপনি add the new and improved combat system, the missing father who plays a dramatic and prominent role, your 19 বছর old character, wasteland radio stations playing 40's and 50's tunes, drinking from toilets, and other exciting details, the only প্রশ্ন that begs to be asked is "Was it really necessary to pay all those millions for the Fallout license?"
