Don't worry - Whacker will get to you soon enough after he is done with Spino.

Personally, I think lots of styles could work. They emphasise different things. The old Fallout isometric style can make things more tactical (although IMO FO1 and FO2 were never that tactical, unlike say Baldur's Gate 2 which was pretty much a squad level tactics game at one level.) The Stalker style can make things more immersive. Perhaps the KOTOR style is a happy compromise between the two.

But the key things I liked about FO - story, character, quests, freedom to roam a vast world, dialogue and writing, the atmosphere & premise, SPECIAL, the combat vs non-combat options etc - could work with any of these styles. And if these things are fluffed, FO3 won't regardless of the perspective. The teaser gives me hope they won't be fluffed.
