Fallout veteran's new BioShock-esque RPG is "first and foremost a dialogue and conversation-rich" game – and devs say if you don't like that, "might we recommend Doom?"

Clockwork Revolution.

Clockwork Revolution, the BioShock-esque RPG underway from Fallout veterans like Brian Fargo over at inXile, is not merely a shooter – and if that's what you're hoping to get out of it, then look elsewhere.

Or, at least, that's what inXile says in response to folks who want a more action-packed time out of Clockwork Revolution than a story-led experience.

The developer makes this clear in a new online post, responding to a fan critical of the RPG's… well, RPG-ness. Heck, the team even goes as far as suggesting that anyone unhappy with Clockwork Revolution leaning into its genre's narrative elements play shooters like Doom instead.
