    @oddtail@meow.social i always played fallout 3+ with the radio on and enjoyed the weird old time music and zany DJs, but my partner plays with the radio off, and when i was watching him play i was surprised at how good the ambient music was. definitely lends a completely different vibe to the games

    that said i haven't really played fallout 1/2 that much so i don't know how it compares. it's on my bucket list to give these two a chance

    i do think that the fallout 3 and later worldbuilding could have been better, at 200 years after the war almost nothing should have survived since then or at least been buried by a ton of dirt. but i still really loved these games (especially new vegas)

    To be honest? I think F1 and F2 are some of the greatest video games of all time... but I wouldn't recommend them to anyone who didn't play them in the 90s or even 00s. They are very clunky and not that easy to get into.

    Besides, New Vegas is, in my opinion, basically a spiritual remake of Fallout 2, in many ways. And it's much easier to get into (which is saying something, because it can be a tough sell to many. But Fallout 2... I imagine it can be a slog for someone who didn't grow up with it. The game is... very old school in its UI and combat design. I love it, but...)
