No, this doesn’t destroy immersion. It just gives you a specific character to roleplay, whose identity you can then imagine and act out as you would in any other game of this type.

They key word there is physical. It was the one thing emphasized above all else. Gaming isn’t physical, so it’s a non-athletic sport was my point. And every dictionary said that athletes were physical, not sure how that disproves what I said.

But also, this kind of grudge holding is not a good look for gamers. The whole thing feels like…

I played Fallout 3 first, then New Vegas, and recently I played Fallout 1. I also replayed all of Fallout 3, so I have that fresh in memory as well.

I still quite love the early games in the series. They are jam-packed with so much flavor that I still remember them fondly. Last time I played through them again (only a few years ago) I was still rather pleased with how well they held up over time. Quite the wonderful games when they came out, still worth…
