When it was announced that Bethesda, a studio with many years of experience in medieval fantasy RPGs, would be resurrecting the long dormant cult classic series Fallout, fanboys all over the internet swept into a violent fury that the series’ dead, long bankrupt creators would not be doing the job. The rage only increased upon the revelation that it would not be an isometric, turn based game running at 640×480 like the originals, but a high resolution 3D game like Oblivion.

Sure you play as (several) different protagonists, and Bungie remembered to turn fall damage on for the first time in 8 years, and there’s an element of exploration between missions, but it’s still Halo, and you’re still fighting the exact same enemies with the exact same weapons. Whether this is a good thing or a bad thing is entirely up to you.

GLUG.
