Do you love games with multiple endings?

Apparantly Bethesda has decided to go to excess with their production of Fallout 3. And the game currently has over 200 endings. I'm a huge fan of the multiple ending concept. But I think I'll be upset with 200. Though I've yet to ever play a Fallout game, I guess I'll have to pick it up.

I'm more often than not caught up being lazy the first one or two trys for me to get the good ending. Except in Bioshock. Damn you ADAM adicts, how could you do it?!@?

Count on them being a flashy FMV and then a couple paragraphs of text. I don't see Bethesda including 200 unique endings at all.

There won't be 200 entirely separate endings. In past games, the narrator always went through each settlement and said what happened to it. There were generally two or three endings per city, with certain ones (New Reno) having more. Given the number of settlements in Fallout 2, I'd say that already accounts for 20+ endings, maybe even more.

I do expect we'll see several ways to "beat" the game, though.

Even if there are only 2 endings per region, 8 regions alone is enough to account for 256 regions. That really isn't that much.

Is fallout 3 gonna be anything like oblivion?

Closer to Oblivion then Fallout, but different from both.

The endings are going to be a single script with key words replaced.

Maybe an Oblivion style dialog list?

With just 8 other characters you could have one ending scene with 256 variations depending on which characters are in the final scene.
