“I don’t know. I can’t tell you for sure whether or not we’ll have them or not,” said Hines.
It’s a different story regarding Xbox 360 Achievements though, with Hines confirming that they are “mostly complete”.
“… we still like to mess with that stuff sometimes in late stages, just in terms of ‘yeah it’s taking a little too long to get this one’, which is why we didn’t want anybody to look at them, because I wouldn’t want you guys putting something out that we then changed and is completely different,” said Hines. “Yeah, they’re largely in there and there’s some really good ones in there… some that I rather enjoy.”
Hines also went on to explain how the achievements in Fallout 3 are different than those in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.
“I actually think the achievements that we had in Oblivion were really good in terms of being the ‘cookie crumbs down the path’ that you always felt that you were just this far from getting another one, which is what I really liked about it,” said Hines. “Fallout is a bit different, because we don’t have all these guilds to progress you along, to give you achievements for each one. We do a number of different things. First of all it’s impossible… No, it is. It’s got to be. It’s impossible to get them all on one play through, so you have to play through the game multiple times to get it.”
