...namely AI.
A series of games I've always wanted to play but never got there are the Fallout games. I've read a lot about them, I've seen videos and screenies and well.. I just wanted to play some of it. When I was younger, when the games were released, I never was interested in RPG's at all. I'm still basicly *not* a roleplayer, but there are some great games in the genre.
So, I purchased Fallout 2 (as I read it was "bigger" than the first game). And it's AMAZING! I love it! It's pure genius! I love pretty much every single aspect of it so far. The world, the skills, the drugs (I need to find something to cure my need for Jet soon..), the fights.. Also, I don't understand all this fuzz about GTA when this game has been around for nearly a decade.. if you've played it, you know what I mean.
However, there is one thing that I feel is disturbing: AI during fights. I'm not used to these fancy Fear-AI's or the Knights of the Old Republic-AI (hey, I play Heroes III on a regular basis = not that great AI) and I'm not all that hot on graphics or sound or anything (just give me a solid story and I can play anything), but I'm grateful for the development of AI.
Because in Fallout 2, I've seen a number of fights between allies because they fire a minigun from a middle of a crowd of allies, resulting in those allies being torn apart by bullets. And the surviving ones start to fire wildly at anything they see.
It can be considered realistic (if I saw three of my friends being shot at with a minigun at 3 feet I'd probably go bonkers as well), but it's kinda frustating when you see your oh so irreplaceable, hammer-wieldning tough guy get blown up by a rocket fired by an ally when me and my companions aren't even involved in the fight and that rocket was fired by a dumba$$ mutant.
So, I think I'm most grateful for the development of the AI when it comes to gaming. Everything else has been there from the start (storytelling) or isn't very important (graphics).
Do *you* have something you want to share here as wellm, about what *you* like the most when it comes to the progress of Gaming? This was mostly just a pretty random rant, and I might continue writing about my crazy adventures in the magical Fallout world. Because I Love it!
