please answer, this is urgent 🥺(mine is fallout new vegas)
Fallout: New Vegas. NPCs might not be that advanced in terms of schedules and stuff but in terms of flavour and story probably blow just about any other RPG out of the water. I also think I prefer a world that doesn’t level with you, where quick saving and quick loading isn’t going to get you through everything all the time and sometimes you just need to come back at a higher level.
I do see value in Bethesda’s leveled NPCs and items in terms of replay value but I think it also makes things a little too casual and makes quick saving/loading the most powerful weapon or power in your arsenal. Because technically nothing is ever out of depth for you, so it’s just a case of trying again until you succeed.
Also, in response to someone here talking about the music, I listen to this soundtrack occasionally in down time. It’s a nice break from alternative and punk and metal and shit, when you’re not exactly a fan of other modern music. Between FNV and BioShock, I’ve become quite an Artie Shaw and a Helen Forrest fan.
VERY surprised by the diversity here. I figured it would be 90% fallout NV and 10% fallout 4 🤔
for me, NV has better personality. But if I were to pick up a controller right now, day 4 is funner to play.
I’ll admit one important reason is just that it was the first I played. I’d never played an open world game before so the revelation of even the possibility of there being so much depth and freedom was amazing. That said, I also think it is generally better in other ways like setup and writing.
It also had the best soundtrack. There are people who listen to the F3 radio outside of the game. I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone say they loved the other soundtracks at all, let alone enough to listen to them repeatedly.
Diamond City Radio has major views on youtube.
True. Some people must love it, but I didn’t and I’ve just never heard anyone I’ve talked to about Fallout say they loved the OST for NV either. Very limited sample, I know, but it’s all opinions anyway so, enh.
sincerely, fallout 4. controversial I’m sure seeing as that game fell a lot more flat in certain areas. but I’ve never been that immersed into a fallout game before fallout 4.
Besides the 5 fps and how boring the minutemen quests were, the game actually wasn’t too bad.
Enjoy any game you want, though. No matter how controversial it is :)
bethesda only learned how to make factions in fallout 76, before promptly forgetting it to add the brotherhood of steel for the umpteenth time.
god i miss the BoS and enclave, shame they never got much recognition by bethesda (bos appeared in most games but besides 1, nv, 3 and 4ish they never got the proper attention)
i hope obsidian or interplay makes the next west coast game, thats the last thing i want to see before i die 🥹
Good news! Fallout 5’s intro is a 4 hour (real time) sequence of working as a paperwork clerk on the oil rig Control Station ENCLAVE on the day the bombs drop!
Bad news: this happens at the same time as fallout 2, so after those 4 hours the rig explodes anyway.
Also, somehow the game’ll crash mid sequence too. Thanks todd howard!
Besides all of the main games they never got attention?
The point of their state in Fallout 2 was that their militant pseudo-religious zealotry and xenophobia was killing them.
They’re not in 76 because they shouldn’t be in 76 at all.

I mainly meant they were sidelooked, but good point

Yeah i still miss them though, they were the funnest faction in the games
Myron baby, Myron! Love Fallout 2!
the face of the devil himself, so glad he died
as someone with the honor of having played every (video)game in the franchise, I can say with certainty it’s Fallout Shelter Online. Fallout just ain’t right without dragons. /j
but honestly, it’s gotta be new vegas for me. kind of a boring answer, but it’s the game that truly made me a fan of the series, and introduced me to the modding scene. I wouldn’t be the same if I had not played it.
remove that fucking /j right now, you’re right

i wouldn’t be the same either. but as i said its easy to tell a blahaj users favorite game lmao
this is bullying. banned
please no 😭
ok geez fine, i wont ban you, just never use that gif again holy shit
lmao, now i have to use it at least once again
planescape torment. looks around oh wait wrong topic sorry, fallout 1 and 2
NV, hands down.
I’m actually not a big fan of the Fallout games outside of NV - I respect FO1+2, especially the atmosphere and willingness to be both dark and bizarre, but don’t particularly enjoy their core gameplay loop. I respect FO3 for the gameplay loop it established, but don’t really have a high opinion of its writing or atmosphere. I really don’t like FO4. 76 is an abomination.
Strangely, though, I have a fondness for Fallout Tactics. AT EASE, INITIATE!

This is the correct answer
For me, Fallout: Shelter wins by default as it’s the only one I spent any significant amount of time in.
finally, we found the only fallout shelter fan in the whole community!
its one of the least popular games (besides BoS and tactics) so i dont see many fans of it.
For what it was, Shelter was excellent!
To compare it to the other Fallout games isn’t fair, as a mobile clicker isnt going to compete with AAA open worlds, but it sure as hell beats Farmville or Clash of Clans.
as far as free to play mobile games go, fallout shelter is funny, since the premium currency is easy as shit to get, my vault from back when i played is esentially an automated utopia now.
a mobile games a mobile game ig, i’ve never played shelter but most mobile spinoffs of games are quite mid (frostpunks mobile game as an example lmfao)
i loved frostpunk, there’s a mobile game?
loved it too but yeah, there is for some reason (official too) lmao
it’s as bad as it sounds lol
People are going to shit on me for this, but Fallout 76. I spent hundreds of hours playing that, and enjoyed the social aspect. Jumping into activities with other players and getting to see their camp creations and sharing my own was a blast.
fallout 76 can be okay, and it was fun in the earlier days, when the content wasn’t trying to be serious (and failing), and I’ve played an ungodly amount of it (thanks, FOMO). but honestly, fallout 76 is just kind of a chore. it’s a grindfest like any other mmo, and I really can’t find much fun in it.
IMO Bethesda has someone at the top levels who forgets to ask if the task they are assigning the player is fun or needed. Far too often things just weren’t fun like trying to find a camera on the tourist to complete dailies and weeklies that required it (this is after they added it to the game a month AFTER they added it to dailies/weeklies)
they want people to play as much as possible for whales I guess. imo the worst contenders are the ones that require you to compete w other players over limited things (can be partially avoided with instanced locations but still)
There’s was a time during the covid lockdown where I was paid by the government to smoke weed all day and play fo76 with my best boys. I don’t have the time or energy for big live service games anymore, but if I did I’d be playing it again. I still boot it up to go around my camp like a museum of that time.
Besides from performance issues, fallout 76 is great!
Enjoy what you want man, don’t let us convince you otherwise :P
Probably controversial, but 3. I can’t get into 1 and 2, NV’s setting doesn’t really do it for me and the exploration is very meh, and 4’s dialogue and forced backstory is just awful (the gameplay loop is fun, though).
fallout 3 nailed the atmosphere if my first playthrough was any indication (quit because it was a bit too scary for my jumpy ass)
fallout 3 had the worst ending in the whole franchise, even with the DLC
“I’m sorry, my companion, but no. We all have our own destinies, and yours culminates here. I would not rob you of that”
mf you are IMMUNE TO RADIATION, why the fuck cant you do it???
even with the dlc it calls you a coward pretty much, lmao
other than that it’s not bad but not my top #1
Yeah, the ending is ridiculous, but with the DLC it’s bearable imo. Not great, not even good, but not enough to push it off the #1 spot for me.
Keep in mind that it’s the first Fallout I played, so nostalgia is definitely part of it for me.
Fallout NV ofc. With f2 close by
It’d be easy to guess that fnv is your favorite since you’re on blahaj lol
Fallout 2 is fucking amazing, second best game for me. nothing really beats 1/2/NV. 3/4/76 were kinda meh and took themselves too seriously
truly an amazing game.Don’t forgot the pariah dog 😭

I’m pretty sure Sex With Hitler has at least one enjoyable moment during its runtime. Which automatically places it above 76.
depends on how many hands you play with

NV.
Fallout one and two because of nostalgia and spent more hours then I can remember playing them when they came out
fallout 1 is great, but fallout 2 is the second best imo. Love the humor in that game (except the pariah dog, fuck the pariah dog)
I didn’t like it dislike the dog I thought it was pretty entertaining to me
with it i had encounters with the enclave every 5 seconds. i literally had to reload a really early save just because of that stupid dog 😭 i remember being so confused on why the game was broken lmao, turns out the devs were just really big trolls
