Fallout 1 and 2 were my first experiences with the post-apocalyptic *ever* and I have become a fan of the genre ever since. And even though I have read some great works, like the manga '7 Seeds' and Cormac McCarthy's novel 'The Road' (both of which are *wildly* different from Fallout but awesome...

I don't think Fallout 3 is a good game, maybe because I played 1 and 2 before I played it, but I was really excited for it when it was being developed because I thought that the game being a 3d first-person game it would allow the player to look at the Fallout universe a little bit differently...

Okay, I suppose many would disagree with me, but I think Tactics shows how the BoS would turn out if they "went outside" for the first time in many years. And even then, it's not the whole BoS but a group of BoS people with a particular set of strong ideals that they all have in common and that...

Again, just my personal interpretation: BoS always had their nose up in the clouds, seeing themselves as 'the technological saviors of mankind', but by the end of Fallout 2 it was some tribal with a teeny bit of help from BoS San Francisco outpost that destroyed the Enclave and it was the NCR...

Well I remember the BoS in 1 and 2 the same way you do, and they are different in NV. I always imagined it was because of the NCR-BoS war. I mean, their mission has always been to hoard technology so they could slowly reintroduce it when the rest of humanity was ready, but then they got their...

696. Nothing you do has any impact upon the world, except if you kill people. With rescuing Reilly's rangers being the sole exception. 697. The only consequences of killing people is that they're dead and some other people might try to kill you. You killed everyone in The Pitt and struck a...

Hate to quote Elder Scrolls here, but "The best techniques are passed down by survivors" would fit in the post-apocalyptic world. Some fighting styles might have survived the apocalypse but aside from books and vaults, all wastelanders would have adopted some sort of a mish-mash new fighting...

1. Dead Money. Liked the focus: let go and begin again. Makes the whole thing feel homogeneous and purposeful. Scarce resources, holograms and speakers kept me present in the game all the time, made me think and plan, as opposed to just blasting another horde of enemies without an intelligent...

Personally, I think that in F3 and, to a degree, F:NV vaults were treated a bit illogically, like fun park attractions. Their purpose was essentially for the Enclave to test various, mostly social, problems that could occur during space travel, and probably the best vault concepts stay true to...

Vault something-or-other: equipped with a state-of-the-art ZAX as an overseer. This ZAX is almost omniscient: it knows the exact state of all of its systems and hidden cameras and microphones monitor the vault dwellers 24/7. The main purpose of this ZAX is to run the vault at 100% efficiency...

@SnapSlav: I've never played the games you mentioned, and the idea of a Hub system always seemed to me like something of an illusion that really wouldn't work: for example, random encounters taking place on a world map in a plain stretch of desert is what made me believe that there actually was...

Critical hits. I almost smashed my computer when I was in Vault 15 in FO2. I had pretty much the same level of equipment and skill that my foes had, but being outnumbered, I had to come up with strategies to use against my foes. Oh, but nuts to tactical advantage, some dude hits you critically...

Okay, I screwed up while delivering my second point in the OP so let me try and rectify. If I am role-playing a Good-Natured Courier with tags on Science, Repair and Medicine I would want to stay away from that Fiend-infested factory that holds loot that could prove useful in the application...

Hi, Lots of people here have been listing their wishes for Fallout 4 and those threads made for an interesting reading, but there was one thing that caught my eye: suggestions like “Fallout: New Cairo”, weather patterns, etc. In my opinion they could make a potential Fallout 4 more enjoyable...
