The project lead suggests Steam may be the best home for Project Arroyo.
I would still prefer a remake like this in a modern infinity engine style engine (like Pillars of Eternity or Divinity Original Sin).
But hot damn 100 devs working on this makes me think I might at least give it a shot for old times' sake, when it's ready.
Fallout is tops between the two, but Fallout 2 always held a special place in my heart (and had a slightly better interface).
They are working with a team that is also working to recreate fallout 1. They are sharing resources. Vault 13 it's called
I would buy this type of remake immediately
Can Bethesda get it shut down? For copyright stuff?
Can, but probably not. It's a mod of fo4, and if it's free and all the content is recreated by the team(meaning no using fo2 asset like voice line), it should be getting a pass.
I poked around the Reddit, they only link to social media platforms, no source repository, where are these 100 developers talking and coordinating together?
On Discord, the black hole for useful information.
Fucking Discord. I hate that people use it as a forum. It's supposed to be an IM/voice chat app.
Like most mods it’s totally proprietary. You have to fill out a form to request access to volunteer …
Hopefully, they don't get hamstrung like Fallout: London.
That got hamstrung by the "next gen" update, unless Bethesda releases another large update of FO4 in the future (unlikely), they should be fine.
You mean like they did the Anniversary Edition update for Skyrim that broke a ton of mods, and then two more updates since then that re-broke a bunch of mods each?
Huh. That’s interesting. Almost as if the love for something and the dedication of its fans is being used as some kind of… source of inspiration and motivation.
In 2024?!
I wish them luck! Working with passion is the best kind. Hope they are able to maintain it.
