Computer RPG Games
Community for CRPG games and other RPG gaming discussions. Witcher, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Baldurs Gate as well as indie RPGs (Underrail, Avernum, Space Wreck etc.). Focus is on CRPGs, but discussion around JPRGs, ARPGs and hybrid games with RPG components is also welcome.
Tabletop/pen & paper RPG discussion is not a good fit for this community. Check out !rpg@ttrpg.network for TT/P&P RPG discussions.
Memes are not banned, but the overwhelming focus is on discussions, releases and articles. Try and post memes (on an occasional basis) that would make people who don't like memes admit "OK! That was a good one!".

Yeah, the gunplay was pretty bad. I like the game more after cheating my guns skill to 100 so the bullets go straight instead of curving to miss because RNG says your attack misses. The problem with that was it also means the shots I aimed poorly would curve to hit because RNG says that attack should have hit.
I also found the graphics problematic. Not low quality, just so extremely bleak that its emotionally disturbing to play for long stretches.
I think that the problem there is just the setting. Like, it's kind of what you'd expect from a weathered, destroyed city.

Fallout 3 was released in 2008. What did games that were ranked top for graphics in 2008 look like?

Apparently these guys ranked Fallout 3 as #2 in the year for graphics, so it probably wasn't too far behind-the-curve.
