Does anyone else feel like this game is a fallout rip off?

1. Factions seems really similar to the fallout 1 theme, The Children of the Apocalypse, wasnt there a church group of evil robe wearing humans in fallout 1 named church of the apocalypse. Enforcers sound just like brotherhood of steel. You got yr vistas (farmers) , travelers (raiders), techs (scribes of the brotherhood of steel)  and lightbearers (really similar to fallout 2 martial artists in san francisco).

2. The stats u have in this game is excatly the same as in the fallout games, with the inclusion of willpower and coordination( You got strength,charisma,endurance,intelligence,perception being the rest of em).

3. The name has "fall" in it, and even the ingame map reads "global-tech" (remember vault tech anyone).

 

I really like the post apocalyptic world setting and admire any game that thinks out of the box to create a whole new genre besides the same old fantasy world with your elves and orcs. But i think this game has so many similarities with the fallout series that it is a downright act of plagiarism.

What do yall think , i may be just crazy and paranoid and comparing this game too much with fallout.

You're out of your fraking mind.

Yeah its similar to Fallout, but thats not an issue. If there's an issue it's that the game isn't similar to Fallout enough.

I'll give it a shot when it's out, remember warcraft IS a warhammer rip-off and look at them now.

Well yes.  And since Fallout is a ripp-off of  ONE MILLION   post-nuclear movies, we could say Fallen Earth is a homage to these MILLION of post-apocalypse movies.

 

Do we have to post clips of Chartlon Heston? or Mad Max ?

i would prefer the pictures of the women in those movies . for some reason they always seem to be wearing very little and have extremly effective air bags or maybe i just watchs the wrong post apoc movies

 Yes

 

:P   It's post apocalyptic that's why it's somewhat similar but that's about it. Huxley is post apocalyptic too and totally different then FE or Fallout. I feel like there's at least one other PA title coming out but I forget.... o.O

Heheh, thinking of Earthrise most likely, though I remember someone (might of been one of the devs) joking that its a Post-Post Apocalyptic game :P

Most post-apocalypse games rip off Wasteland, including Fall Out.

Definitely not a rip off, not at all.  But it does have the potential to be a great game...

I can't tell you how I know this, lol, but if you're skeptical about this game, don't give up on it.  It's unpolished, needs some work... even a lot of work... but the fundamentals are there.  The years of development were well spent on the core of the game. Combat is solid, handled in a way that Tabula Rasa should have been done.  The crafting is game  changing.

This game won't be for everyone, and that's fine with me.  But if you were holding out hope for this game, don't give up on it.  It really has a chance to deliver.
