FO3 spells out everything for you making the intro as "dumb" as possible.įO 3 - Man was at war since early time, that never changed. Just listen to them on youtube and you'll see what I mean.Ĭontext wise I find the FO2 intro more interesting and leaving just enough for self interpretation. Although it is the same actor I think he missed the mark in FO3. The voice in FO3 sounds like some guy trying to be grim and failing.miserably. "War" Speech - The voice in FO2 sounds like the voice of somebody that has seen the most horrific thing imaginable and is describing how it happened. The selling point of FO is the idea that you are in control not that you are going to see a bunch of cool flames and explosions.ī. Although this song's main point is also love, the idea behind it here is hope, creation and the use of imagination.Īlthough both classics, I personally thought the FO2 song was much more fitting of the games' main goal. I believe the game took a slightly different approach here. However, I believe Bethesda chose this song because of the mention of the words "set the world on fire." Invoking images of a burning post apocalyptic environment is what they believe to be the selling point of the game.įO2 - "A kiss to build a dream on" - Louis Armstrong. Please let me know if you share these opinions or maybe I am being too harsh.įO3 - "I don't want to set the world on fire" - The Ink Spots.

Since I played the two games within days of each other I have had an urge to compare the positive and negative aspects of each game. Just finished FO3 and am in the process of re-playing FO2 (at least the 5th time).
