You seem to really get a hardon for criticizing the writing of FO2 lmao, I am wondering if you'll pop some blood vessels down there in regards to later titles.
I'm just saying for the amount of shit Bethesda writing gets, by the same standards Fallout 2 is just as bad if not worse in some cases.
I don't see where the God tier writing is coming from honestly
At least Fallout 3 made the Enclave competent and needed a Deus Machina to beat them and the Enclave still managed to beat the Deus Machina
So what if they're the US government? Everyone got nuked to hell and back, maybe the government vaults were specifically targetted?
That's not stated anywhere, where would China even get the location of the Enclave vaults which are secret? The only ones who should have been targeted would have the Military bases the Brotherhood of Steel came from.
Honestly it should have been the Enclave that took over the West Coast not the bums of the NCR.
Maybe they weren't built in time, any number of reasons. We don't have context, all we know is Enclave are very low in number, but very very powerful individually.
Sounds like shit writing, apparently hobos can rebuild better than the organization that's leagues more advanced.
Eh? There's no Anchorage in FO2. It's a post-war design.
Nope try again Fallout 3 says other wise
What would the dropship even be defending itself from when it's armored against rifle-fire and is full of angry Enclave dudes in armor? It's a glorified Huey, not an Apache.
What if it's going to pick Enclave soldiers up, what if the Enclave soldiers need more fire power than can be carried on their person?
There's a variety of reasons and New Vegas shows the models that they did have guns so you're literally simping for shit writing lol
Enclave have a 'bug like' appearance for all their gear, thus the helicopters are overdesigned as well.
Their equipment looks menacing AND it's effective. Fallout 2 writing turned the Enclave into clowns half way through the story while jerking off the NCR with fortune after fortune and unrealistic levels of plot armor.
New Vegas NCR at least tried to be realistic and Fallout 3 actually respected the capability of the Enclave.
