My most favorites are Fallout: New Vegas and Fallout: Muslim Brotherhood jk lol, Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel. Tactics one is a nice strategy game.

Loved New Vegas , it's one of my favorite games. I tried to play one and two but the gameplay was too clunky for me. I don't like FO3 at all. And FO4 was overall really good for a Bethesda game but it's no FO:NV.
I'm still waiting for a new open world game with the quality of FO:NV .

I'm not a big fallout fan (not a big fan of post apocalyptic games in general). I only played Fallout: New Vegas and Fallout 4. I didn't bother to finish the former (I did not like it .. blasphemy, I know), finished the latter and thought it was OK (not great, but good enough).

I´ve played them all and enjoyed it. Character development and storyline are not their strong points, but the atmospheric setting and freedom of play more than make up for it. Of the newer ones, I agree that NV´s story was easily the best. I really liked FO4´s setting and gameplay (maybe influenced by my fondness for Boston as a setting), and the settlement building was surprisingly fun, given that I don´t normally have the patience for such things. The main story did not thrill me nearly as much as I wanted it to. There was a lot of potential depth that was just not there. For all their supposed brilliance, the Institute did not seem to have a very convincing motivation beyond the "we are the future of humanity" repeated ad nauseam, which was really disappointing. The only sad thing about blowing them up was the loss of the classical music channel for me  . But I digress. Still clocked 200+ hours on that one, and I´ll likely play the next one as well. I just hope they can up their game in the story department.

New Vegas I like the most. That's because Cass can be a companion. I like her dialogue.
3 & 4 weren't bad.

Hot take.
The only good fallout game is New Vegas, which did a lot of what I expect in a fallout game of being faction-oriented, morally complex and just a lived-in world.

Its still the rose colored glasses bit, but at the time they were released they were ground breaking. I find that to be the case with a lot of the games from that time is that going to play them the first time now they don't seem to be what people make them out to be.

Yeah I had the same problem with FO3 this year. It's a nice game but I like FO4 better in most ways.
NV I played 2 years ago for the first time and LOVED it. Modded it's still good enough looking.
Playing 3 after NV was probably the problem. At first I thought they weren't so different but FO3 just ended so abruptly and poorly that I had to revise mit verdict. NV is a much better game.
As for humor in Fallout games: I only know the newer ones. What I like about the franchise *is* the over the top evil humor. If Fallout was serious once it sure isn't anymore and I like it that way.

The story sounds cool but I don't like the idea of a hard time limit. But I HAVE played Fallout 2 multiple times, and still dust it off to play to this day. Though now it's definitely more enjoyable with mods. I can see how the gameplay can be a bit archaic, but I can be flexible with that as long as it's actually playable. I really enjoy the story and the atmosphere: the dark humor of parodying post-apocalyptic dystopia stories from the 1950s-80s. And New Vegas had more of that screwball humor than Fallout 3 or 4 had. Especially with the Wild Wasteland trait.

A lot of the rpgs at that time i never finished, maybe it was too complex? I don't know I distinctly remember beating myst years before. But a lot of the rpgs of the day I have experience with. It's less nostalgia for me, more just the practicality of how things moved on. Kind of like how yuka lay lee failed to capture an audience despite being a carbon clone of an awesome game in banjo kazooie. <iframe width="14.220000000000027" height="8.28000000000003" style="position: absolute; width: 14.220000000000027px; height: 8.28000000000003px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none;left: 15px; top: -5px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_95946472" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="14.220000000000027" height="8.28000000000003" style="position: absolute; width: 14.22px; height: 8.28px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 660px; top: -5px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_91553033" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="14.220000000000027" height="8.28000000000003" style="position: absolute; width: 14.22px; height: 8.28px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 15px; top: 350px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_20267381" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="14.220000000000027" height="8.28000000000003" style="position: absolute; width: 14.22px; height: 8.28px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 660px; top: 350px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_54818324" scrolling="no"></iframe> I've admit I've never played the first Fallout. The story sounds cool but I don't like the idea of a hard time limit. But I HAVE played Fallout 2 multiple times, and still dust it off to play to this day. Though now it's definitely more enjoyable with mods. I can see how the gameplay can be a bit archaic, but I can be flexible with that as long as it's actually playable. I really enjoy the story and the atmosphere: the dark humor of parodying post-apocalyptic dystopia stories from the 1950s-80s. And New Vegas had more of that screwball humor than Fallout 3 or 4 had. Especially with the Wild Wasteland trait. I rarely take that trait honestly. Thankfully its am option.

My pornstar name in FO2 was always " Buck Fitch " .
In my opinion Fallout could use a bit more grimdark along with a bit more mature content/humor. FO1 and FO2 had titles depending on your actions ( Gravedigger, Pornstar, Gangster, they removed children from the game after criticism as you were able to harm them resulting in an appropriate title, patch to include them was released after a while ). Bring back the skill and trait system as well and a refined mutation system of F76.
But most importantly, throw in a good story like FNV and you're set.

My favourite moment in New Vegas was when Colonel Moore told me to go and assassinate Mr House - I asked if that wouldn't destabilise New Vegas and she just said "We don't care about New Vegas - we only care about the dam". That's when I realised I'd sided with the bad guys! I stuck with them, though.

FNV is a lot of fun and since Vegas is my kind of place, I loved it a lot, but it got old pretty fast for me. I think my most enjoyable parts were the DLC and side quests in Vegas. I got bored easily after finding Benny no matter how many times I tried to play a different courier or choose a different side. I always seem to just start over after he runs off or I kill him. I never have the trouble with 3 or 4. Maybe NV is just too overwhelming with side stuff and I as a completionist kind of go crazy and burn out by the time I reach Vegas.

One thing that bugs me about New Vegas: the tutorial. Look, I'm a seasoned courier, I don't want to ask Sunny Smiles to teach me how to use a gun. I know you can skip it, but if you do that you don't get the Caravan deck!
Also, Heartaches By The Number is my favourite song ever in a computer game. I love the Dwight Yoakam version too.

I always do the tutorial to get Goodsprings to Idolize me because I save the woman from the Gecko. It does get annoying though. Same as FO3 and the escape from the vault. That's my fav song, too! I also like that Cass' quest has the same title.
