No level cap increases for Fallout 3
In a recent interview with MTV Multipayer Bethesda’s Jeff Gardiner squashed any possibilities of a level cap increase with the next DLC Fallout: New Vegas.
But there’s good reason for holding back on future increases he explains “I know from the outside this seems like a fairly simple proposition, but doing this could unbalance the game in a variety of ways.” A pretty valid point. Although it would be nice to have something more levels to work towards, why force the issue if there is a chance that it may inhibit your gameplay experience?
For those of you looking for new challenges or want to further play time he recommends starting over with a new character type. After all that is one of Fallout 3′s biggest advantages. There are so many paths a player can take and different options at your disposal that starting over doesn’t necessarily mean you would just be rehashing the same experience twice. Explore!
Jeff did acknowledge however that Bethesda is pleased that people want to keep playing and that things may be different down the road saying “we’ll look into addressing these concerns in future games.”
