Forum:What's with this Fallout rip-off garbage?

Anyone seen the trailer for Grimlands yet? If not, here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcvrFMZSMNw&feature=feedu_more I don't know about you guys, but this looks like either 1. A rip off of what might be a Fallout MMORPG, or 2. Fallout multiplayer edition!

I guess wastelands and zombies are the two hot items in gaming right now!

This is a shooter. Fallout is a RPG. So no. Not a rip off of anything. Also, learn to sign. 22:38, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

OMG! I totally forgot to sign! Please, PLEASE forgive me oh wise one!

Anyway, although Grimlands may be a shooter, it still has an overwhelming "feel" of Fallout - specifically Fallout 3 (which was more of a shooter in it's gameplay, btw.)

Oh - just for you:

What? Because it's post apocalyptic with guns? Fallout wasn't the first game to do post apocalyptic and it sure as hell mot be the last, does that mean that every game that does is riping it off? Don't want ot, dont buy it.. 22:59, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

I guess I'm just looking at the visual aspect of it. In a post apocalyptic world there's more than likely going to be guns (or at least stones to throw.) Otherwise, post-apocalyptic wise, everyone would be dead, and then no one would care. You're right: Fallout wasn't the first game to do post-apocalyptic ( and yes, it won't be the last.) But Grimlands does, at least to me look like it was heavily visually inspired from Fallout (as Fallout has recently inaugurated a lot of new players to the post-apocalyptic genre, it makes sense for them to piggyback off this game style.) Simply put, I don't want the game, therefore I'm not buying it. I really don't know why you're getting all heated about a posting that asks: does this look like Fallout to you? I see your answer is no - now hopefully other people can put in their two cents as well.

My two cents? It's looks like shit. It's going to be shit. I know it's just my opinion, but I'm right.

Holy shit! it does look like fallout style. thats too close, post apocalyptic part aside. very similar graphics wise.

Well, I do have to admit, on some level, it does look like Fallout, but not quite. Then again, any post apocalyptic game would look like Fallout. Also, if the YouTube polls are any indication(160 people liked it, 458 people hated it), it's probably not going to be that good. Maybe Interplay can use this inevitable failure as an example that Fallout was not ever meant to be an MMO.--Ryker6123:52, August 21, 2011 (UTC)~4:48pm 8/21/2011  "For the struggle of survival is a war without end!"
