you blew that town up? aww you bad boy :P

yeah i purchased the game today and made my first steps, megatron, killed my first 2 mutants, and of course i couldn't resist to get in bed with nova (nothing happens though, she lies down and instantly falls asleep - how lame... i remember the gothic2 tavern cutscene ) and am currently searching the "family".

never played oblivion, as i regarded it as a gothic 3 opponent (and you better don't fraternise with the enemy...) so i can't tell if it's oblivion-ish. feels good, anyway. graphics are cool, though the post processing makes it all a bit slushy.

i loved the 100% round based fighting system of fallout 1 and 2, this semi-tactical v.a.t.s. is not what i expected. but i can live with it.

and i remember the molerats to be much stronger. in general, the game appears to be quite easy at the beginning - except for those damn radscorps.

up to now, i feel that the overwhelmingly good press reviews are justified. let's see how it turns out after some more hours of playing.
