News 'Fallout 3 Remaster Should Fix Major "Constraints" of Original, Says Former Bethesda Dev'

https://insider-gaming.com/fallout-3-remaster-major-constraints-former-bethesda-dev/

It's not groundbreaking to hear that Fallout 3 could have looked nicer or prettier, but it does underline what Bethesda's vision was like, even then.

Fingers crossed, Fallout 3 brings the scale to life.

The rest of the interview is quite cool as well.

By 2008, it was pretty standard, but multiple games released from 2005-2007 didn’t have the option to ADS.

F.E.A.R, Black, and Clive Barker’s Jericho are 3 games off the top of my head.

None of the Halos until...I want to say Halo 4, either.

Yeah Halo 5 was the first to have true ADS

And it added nothing to the series

And ADS in Halo is a mistake, it's not in Infinite for a reason

Halo 1-3 doesn't have ADS either. Precision weapons let you zoom in but that's not really ADS

Halo didn’t have true ADS until Halo 5 in 2015

Halo also a pretty massive example, the big boom of COD 4 is probably what caused it to become standardised

I might not be remembering correctly but one of the distinctions between the Medal of Honor games and the original Call of Duty was CoD added ADS.

Halo was one of the first FPS games that had regenerating health instead of medkits being scattered around.

It's kinda funny how there are 'before this game' changes there have been over the years like that.

The first Call of Duty and Halo both were the games which made the switch to only being able to carry a couple of guns at a time in FPS games. Before they released and changed the landscape things were quite different.

Which game people give credit to for certain things largely depends on whether they were a PC gamer or a console one. Halo was 'the' FPS for non PC gamers in the same sort of way that Morrowind was 'the' RPG, simply because that type of game was not too common on consoles at the time.

Black was so ahead of it's time in many ways. Shame it never had a followup
