One of the most conspicuous things making Fallout 3 seem decidedly older then games like Skyrim and even GTA IV is the lack of emergent gameplay. That is to say, you have to purposely go to a specific location in order to progress within the games narrative. Things wont unravel organically you have to move them along yourself. This is 2014 and elementary gameplay components like this dont cut the mustard any more. It just lacks subtlety. Weve already seen that Bethesda understand how beneficial it is to include emergent gameplay elements, typified by their incredible employment of dragons in the critically acclaimed Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. While roaming the vast expanses of northern Tamriel the player will randomly encounter hostile dragons which they are obviously forced to react to. The games world acting in this organic way means that each and every gamer will have a completely different experience and so will feel like theyre in a living, breathing world.
