Just to inform everybody: V.A.T.S. and time waiting is actually present in original games. First one can be used by clicking on weapon icon during combat with right click (where you can also change mode for certain weapons or reload) and second is bell in Pip Boy menu at the top alongside clock/date. Originals are cool, 4 is fine, and i havent played 76, but NV is still my favorite game.

I'm surprised, how one can actually miss this about waiting and VATS. But I agree, New Vegas is the best. It brings together the writing of the first 2 games, and 3D from Bethesda. Perfect, is what it is.

You can wait in Fallout 1 and 2

[@ZappBranniglenn]

Yeah and it's a pretty vital feature too. Certain quests and quest solutions can only be done at certain times, and if your character gets exhausted from doing first aid/doctor checks to heal up, you can just wait an hour to get around that. Plus it's just nice to arrive in a town and then wait until morning where you can actually see what's going on.

Fallout 2 is a chefs kiss

[@Thagomizer]

Fallout 1 asked you what you were willing to do in order to save your community. You could doom the town of Necropolis to save your vault, or take up hit jobs for the underworlders of the Hub. Fallout 2 asks you what prices are worth paying for the return of civilization, and who's vision of the wasteland is worth supporting. Fallout 3 just asks you if you want to blow up a town for no reason or not.

In all honesty it's a tad bit disrespectful to those devs, like "yeah you're the guys who created the franchise and the first two games but the game you made after Bethesda bought your IP is a spin-off cause it doesn't have a number in the title".

[@austinschmidt8054]

I feel it's apt to call the 3D Fallout titles FPS games because the melee combat is just completely barebones and feels like an afterthought. You can swing, swing harder, and block. It just doesn't feel very compelling, leading to many people to just stick to guns. I'd also say that you just seem like a person who prefers FPS over traditional roleplaying or even RTS games, which is fine, but to call FO3 a "unique spin" on anything seems like a stretch. It's just Elder Scrolls, especially Oblivion, but you have guns. I'd say if you can play Starcraft or any similar title, you could easily get into Fallout 1 and 2 without it feeling very clunky, whereas comparing Fallout 3 to modern iterations of its gameplay, very much is so. The shooting feels off, the movement is stiff, and the dialogue is a huge step down from the Interplay titles, imo. And this is coming from someone whose first entry in the series was 3 and I still enjoy it very much to this day. But your comparisons of the it to 1 and 2 gameplay wise, just comes off a little weak. If you convert 1 and 2 into the style of 3, they would still be great based off their writing and exploration. I feel if you do the reverse to 3, you're just left with a rather mediocre experience overall.

[@roninscythe9733]

Are you not considering New Vegas and FO4? New Vegas has special melee moves that can be learned from side quests which drastically changes melee from just "swing, swing harder, and block." Melee is also meant to be played in 3rd person as it allows for moves that cannot be done in 1st person.

[@roninscythe9733]

Not to mention uniques and perks that add moves and effects.

[@austinschmidt8054]

@@roninscythe9733 Considering that he isn't covering NV in this video, I should think that my comments aren't directly applying to it, but even then, combat isn't really made that much better by the few moves that it adds(does it even do any beyond the Ranger Takedown? I guess the different punches count.) Even then, those require VATS which then boils it down to the same combat as shooting because there's little difference between the two in it. Comparing it to other 3rd person games that offer melee combat shows how basic it is. You have no real combos or any sense of flow to the moves you have available. It just feels very clunky most of the time. Again, I like the games well enough, but it does them no favors to pretend that they do anything beyond exploration and (sometimes) dialogue/quests particularly well. And what unique melee weapons add moves? I'm having a hard time thinking of any, unless you count stuff like the added knockback from the unique bat or stuff like that which isn't really added moves, so much as just elemental buffs/effects.

[@roninscythe9733]

@@austinschmidt8054 in your original post, you said 3D Fallout games. Whether FNV was discussed in the video becomes irrelevant because you specifically said 3D Fallout games. Which FNV falls under. Not listing any of the perks you can get by leveling, but specifically ones you learn from side quests/encounters, off the top of my head I can think of Veronica’s scribe counter, Ranger takedown, Khan Pocket sand, and the Superman punch from the legion guy. Fair point with the 3rd person rebuttal. Fallout melee combat obviously isn’t Dark Souls standards, but I think it’s not entirely accurate to say that the melee combat is “barebones” because there is some spice. It has its ups and downs. And playing Fallout melee in 3rd person increases that spice.

[@austinschmidt8054]

@@roninscythe9733 I will give you that I didn't specify, that's fine. Think about that though, that is 4 additional options, many of which have the same effect, which is just temporarily stunning the enemy, so even with the added options, you aren't given much in terms of new things to do. It's fine if you enjoy the melee combat in the games, more power to you if you do. I just don't find it very appealing and feel that many people feel the same way, leading to the comment in the video about the 3D FO games being FPS. I do enjoy them, but they could do so much more with the system to make it actually engaging. Which maybe isn't their focus, but it just makes combat in general feel like a chore you go through to enjoy more of the world and storytelling it contains.

Max Payne; 2 devs, one publisher.) - The events are canon to the stories of the originals and the Bethesda games. - The games mechanics are ported straight from FO3 - It has major DLC expansions like all mainline Bethesda games since Oblivion I mean, what even is mainline and what is a spin-off?

@@shupasopni He's not really good with Soulsborne games, and I think making him do that all that would probably be his nightmare. It's why I said "I'm playing the Chaotic neutral card here" since he probably won't enjoy it, and he already tried out Elden Ring months ago

[@shupasopni]

@@doomknight233 Oh I see. Well then yeah he should probs stay far away from all or most of those I mentioned. Although The Kings Field and Shadow Tower games are different enough combat wise he might actually like them, and it would be funny to skip the Soulsborne stuff, but go back for those. I don't know what exactly he doesn't like about Souls games though, and if OG Fallout felt clunky to him Kings Field might be right out.

[@MelStaub]

Including Fallout 4 yet omitting New Vegas is a pure smooth brain move

[@Niosai]

I made a whole second video covering all the spin-offs and explaining why I consider New Vegas a spin-off :)

[@MelStaub]

@@Niosai I just finished watching it and I can understand the reasoning behind your opinion but I can't agree, besides that one thing though I enjoyed both videos

[@Kelis98]

NV is a mainline title and you shouldn't say "every" if you leave out Tactics, BoS, NV, 76, Shelter, etc

[@Niosai]

I mentioned this a couple of times in the video, but the next video will cover all of the spin-offs :)

[@Kelis98]

@@Niosai I understand that but the title is misleading and NV is a mainline title

[@kalimatronix]

19:35 Yea, definitely came from Elder Scrolls and because of how Bethesda's NPCs work. Definitely not from the first two games where, for example, a doctor in Shady Sands won't talk to you unless you need an emergency medical aid. Definitely "new" mechanical for a Fallout game.

[@Niosai]

Definitely check out the part of the video where I played 1 and 2, hopefully that'll shed some light on how I might've missed that mechanic :)

These videos are amazing. You should definitely do GTA next.

I just started 3 on that new Playstation thingy. Im kind of glad I didn't play this back in the day cause it is an awesome piece of gaming history.

If you ever decide to revisit Fallout 1, play it with the Fallout Fixt mod.

[@noneed4me2n7]

I just started playing Mad Max the game and boy would it be nice if fallout used that engine or something similar.

[@Chernobog2]

Would you consider playing every Ultima game?

[@shogunender8752]

Fallout 2 is on of my top 3 favorite games and I love fallout 3 since it was my first and the dystopian cityscape. But fallout new Vegas is by far on of the best games ever made but it doesn’t take fallout 3 let alone the perfection of fallout 2.

[@ea.fitz216]

I picked up FO1 in August, along with 2 and Tactics. I figured I'd play in order, but I made the mistake of doing a high SAL, low PECI build. BIG MISTAKE. My character is so mind boggingly stupid that I'm locked out of most of the content. The only way I can access side quests is by oding on mentats, and I can't use companions so combat is hell. I don't level up because my intelligence is 1, and I can't use guns because my character struggles with vision due to low perception. If anybody picks it up for the first time, do not do as I did. I am a charlatan and a fool and I do not deserve to win this game for my arrogance. I accidentally hurt a brahmin once, so Junktown wants to kill me for some reason. Also, I don't like the save system. Solid 7/10 though I like it. I look forward to 2, I've heard it's better and more generous to... simple characters... so I will be continuing my inane and completely stupid SPECIAL build for consistency's sake.

[@Anim0sityy]

that build sounds hilarious but would be much better suited to second time players

[@caiopavani5413]

I played Fallout 1 and 2, in sequence. When i got to Fallout 3, my disappointment was brutal. The history from 3 was almost non existent, the characters were uninteresting. To me, 1 and 2 are still the best Fallout games yet.

[@Ratchetfan321]

Skipping new Vegas is a crime. Ill have to skip this video too until the Vegas video is made.

[@ramonespinal8718]

I've never played any fallout games and I just got fallout 3, 4, and new vegas. I'm not sure which one to do first but I'm going to start off with fallout 3.

[@colixnaia6512]

It's interesting that he says most people he knows love Fallout 4. I appreciate that he added that it was anecdotal, and I'm certainly not going to argue with the tastes of others. enjoy what you enjoy. I'm just surprised because most people I've talked to shared my own view that the game felt somewhat unengaging. I've had a lot of people tell me that they didn't know how to describe it until I put it into words for them -- that Fallout 4, despite all it adds and creates and innovates on, just feels somehow shallow and unfocused. If I'm honest, the only engagement Fallout 4 ever got out of me was when I added mods and played through everything as an OP murder hobo, or when I was working on my settlement (because I'm a sucker for base-building). There are so many good ideas, new systems, and fun concepts added into the series by Fallout 4, but I always felt that the sheer amount of ways the game gets pulled in by all these differing ideas made it feel disjointed. IT felt like multiple games attempted to be one, and that's certainly an unfortunate thing to me.

[@liammagnisium]

I recently played fallout 1 and its really good its tough but fun. maybe its not the game for you but when I played it, it was amazing it doesn't have very much replayability though after you 100% it. also one small thing waiting and VATS were in fallout 1 and 2 also they weren't invented by Bethesda they were just upgraded and made better by Bethesda.

[@cassini4751]

15:24 bookmark

[@polskiwyrob7650]

couple minor things: fun fact: the talking heads in 1 and 2 are actually stop motion dogmeat is not in every mainline fallout game, he is not in fallout 2 but if im being honest i would've preferred bethesda came up with their own dog name for each game. also you mentioned every fallout game after the first having the skill system but so far, from 4 on, bethesda's fallout games dont have the skill system. I also found it a little odd you spent so much time on chems in the fallout 3 section because they weren't a new idea in 3 and functioned virtually the same in the first two. i get what you are saying about vats in 3 but the way i see it, its the same system as the first 2 just dumbed down and applied in a non conventional way for a fps/rpg.

[@alyshikingadventures]

Fallout 3 is my favorite in the sense of its karma and world, I hope they bring karma and factions back into fo5

Fallout sometimes changes

[@Twitchy_McExorcism]

It's hard for me to say if 1 and 2 have aged well when I just don't like the isometric bird-with-mind-control-powers style, whether it's turn-based or not, but I can say for sure that I didn't enjoy them very much either. Didn't even bother to finish 2. New Vegas is great, but it's 4 I keep coming back to because while NV ends the game with a suitable epilogue after the main quest, 4 gives me something to do once I'm done with all the quests I care to finish, if I do quests at all. It may not be something _meaningful,_ granted, but damned if I haven't spent a couple hundred hours scrapping everything in a new settlement with the Sole Survivor's deconstructive heat vision, making my own little junk forts across the commonwealth, and using any prospective settlers as target practice.

[@thedarkumbreon953]

Curious question how would you feel if they remastered the 1st 2 Fallouts but made it more like 3 and 4 in a 1st person view?

I think if they kept the writing at the level it is in the originals, I'd definitely be interested.

Fallout 4 has the best gameplay hands down. New vegas the best story, fallout 3 is revolutionary and the first 2 have good stories but i cant get into them. One thing 76 does that i like is the map. Its detailed and nice to look at and is a bit easier to get around and get to

[@Drasshyre]

Why were you wearing the vault 13 jumpsuit the whole time. This game gets fun with progression. Getting the next armor getting a better gun. Getting a new companion 🤗. If someone says you didn't give it a chance well maybe they mean you didn't take your time and really level up your character and play through a bunch of the funny and I interesting quests.
