The Fallout fans are missing out.
Final Fantasy fans are right to skip 2, but 1 can be fun. I’d much rather play 1 than 8.
Ugh misread your comment and went on a fallout 2 rant. Woops. Totally agree with you! The early fallout games were excellent, and i think the only good one since the IP got picked up is new Vegas
Can I hear your fallout 2 rant anyway? I only played the modern ones, and nearly totally ignored the strategy involved in VATS in favor of just shooting enemies in the head myself.
Ha! Totally! Fallout 2 is an underrated gem of a game, the amount of content in a single city (new reno) is staggering. It’s funny, difficult, at times nonsensical, and arguably my favorite game in the series. Nothing about it is perfect, but it feels so right.
I don’t want to give too many details in case i spoil it, but the game is really something else. I don’t think any game in the series has been as unhinged since fallout 2. It is 2d isometric and uses an action point system, so be aware of that, but man is it wild. I think new vegas is the closest to really capturing the essence, but there’s a certain tone that is missing from the new games. I also strongly dislike the nonstop shoot on sight gameplay in later entries like they’re copying call of duty.
The first time i had an enemy offscreen one shot one of my party members with a Gauss rifle was a shock. An epic shock.
Not the first I played but I did love 8. See, there are atlest(and at most probably) two of us!
