If I didnt like Oblivion will I most likely also not like Fallout 3?

^topic. I didnt really like Oblivion because for some reason the combat felt boring. Perhaps I was just bad at it but I felt it was like a hack and slash. Will I also find Fallout 3 boring because I've heard it's just "Oblivion w/ guns"?

thanks

You could like it since it's a lot different. It's not just Oblivion with guns.

Personally I love both games, but if you enjoy outrageous firearms, cinematic combat, and way over the top gore then I think you'd like Fallout 3. If you despise any of those things then you will hate it. I can't truly grasp how anyone would dislike Oblivion.

You might like Fallout if it was just the combat that you didn't like in Oblivion. If it was the big world you didn't like, then you might not like Fallout 3. I didn't like Fallout 3 but I did like Oblivion.

Fallout 3 is a lot different from Oblivion. However - everyone is entitled to their own feelings, but I feel that Fallout 3 is a great game and is a lot better than Oblivion in every way.

Because Oblivion takes place in the Medieval era, I wouldn't blame you for calling the game a Hack n' Slash. Especially if you aren't into using magic to solve your problems. Fallout 3 is similar to Oblivion, however, it is much different. With a variety of different weapons, you can kill something from afar or close range. Fallout 3 also offers a sick feature that allows you to watch your character shoot the enemy in slow-motion, with all it's guts and glory. I would recommend Fallout 3 if you liked Oblivion for its style.

I didn't like oblivion, and i could not get into it. However, fallout was fantastic and I loved playing that game a lot. So, it is possible to not like oblivion and love fallout
