Another wiener mr.manti. I miss all the old stuff that didn't hold your hand or lead you by the nose to your next objective. Sure it was frustrating sometimes, but when you figured it out it was so much more rewarding. I hate to say it,but I feel like the days when you had to actually read and listen and pay attention in games is over. I really hope that's not the case,but it seems developers cant help but put waypoints,notes that all but spell out the solution to the quest, and general easements to problem solving in their stuff as a matter of habit.

One of my favorite side-quests is in the Den. Mom will ask you to bring a meal to Smitty. If you take the meal, and then forget to deliver it and beat the game (like I did) You can offer the meal to Smitty and he says "Oh. I already went got me something to eat." To which the Chosen One can reply: "Oh, well can I still have the exp?" Smitty: "Sure."

[@luxither7354]

I love how fallout 2 poses slavery as a norm. It would make sense in post apocalypitic wasteland that the weak would be utilised rather than killed, and we see the different ways of justifying it. The Denison of The Den own it, the Dwellers of Vault City pretty it up and agree with it because "It's always been that way" and New Reno makes their slaves willing by drugs. Although I don't think it makes it as justifyable to the player as it is in New Vegas, it paints the wasteland in a more realistic way, to me atleast.

[@TKsMantis]

Great observation. I agree. Certainly not based on race, but the post-war would bring out the worst in a lot of people.

[@luxither7354]

@@TKsMantis thanks. I think alot of people are closed to discussing the morality of Slavery in Fallout due to the pre-existing connotation between slavery and racism, which I understand and is justified. It is great to see you didn't jump to that idea and took it independent of these pre-existing ideas!

Gonna (X) on that one.

[@brianandrew8968]

Fallout 3 had a great potential with slavery that sadly got wasted in fallout 4 (by not showing the slavers anymore), I liked the option where you could join the slavers and go around the wasteland putting collars on people and getting paid for it. It also showed the capital wasteland as a more horrible place, with rich people like Tempenny, slavers, kids all closed in a cave kicking out adults, ghouls bullied by everyone (including the brotherhood of steel), evil mercenaries like the Talon company and selfish people like Dave...

New Vegas is the only fallout to come close to the comic greatness of this game. The Stealth boy messages about sexual harassment had me rolling. Really wish Bethesda would go back to dark comedic roots. The series is at its best with open Roleplaying and dark almost sick humor.

[@TKsMantis]

I understand why they have cleaned it up a bit, but yes I agree. Fallout 2's humor is unmatched and New Vegas is a close second.

The line "This house is clean" is clearly from where it originated, Poltergeist, which was released in 1982. Without going into much detail, Tangina was tasked to retrieve Carolanne from the spirit world and remove the ghosts that haunted the home. After doing so she stood up calmly and said one of the most famous lines of cinema.....

[@TKsMantis]

The reason I questioned it is because she says clean in the movie and the Chosen One says clear as Ventura does. I figured the dev team, being smartasses, decided to quote Ventura quoting Poltergeist. Just a theory.

I still remember not playing this game for years, and finally in 2020, I saw your video on how the main quest was god-tier. I immediately was rushed with nostalgia and other emotions from my childhood, and bought the game the same day. I had a shitty Mac laptop that apparently was supposed to run dosbox, but that didn’t work, so I broke and bought a windows. Holy hell, when I popped back into arroyo and the temple, couldn’t tell you how I felt, thanks for reintroducing me back into one of the great ones.

[@Blakbox92]

This is probably a weird thing to appreciate, but the towns of Fallout 2 seem so much more real, towns so long after the apocalypse would not just be metal scrap shacks and collapsing ruins as they tend to be depicted in the later games. San Francisco, New Reno, Vault City and Shady Sands all feel like places with a culture, that have been lived in for the better part of two centuries. Be it with prewar structures and roadways being maintained, or new ones being build from raw materials. Meanwhile, compare with Novac, Primm or even Vegas from FONV, and they have piles of junk everywhere, and are nothing but poorly maintained pre-war buildings... over 200 years after the bombs dropped. It's a great game, but it seems so strange.

[@ThommyofThenn]

I didn't start gaming until the early 2000s. But when I couldn't play console games, i was messing around on old computers and figuring out how to install even older games. This grew into a love of retrogaming once I learned about emulation and other ways of enjoying excellent older games. I'm currently playing FNV for the first time and I'm going to download FO1 and 2 soon. In no small part this is due to your videos and other people making videos about how much they like these games. Sadly I got spoiled for Fo1/2 stories a few years ago since I assumed I would never get around to playing it. With how legendary they are though I don't think having the broad storyline strokes spoiled is the end of the world!

My favorite things about it is that the quest giver, the mayor flat out LIES to you about having information about the GECK. He says that he does it out of desperation. How mad your character is about it all is completely up to you.

[@TKsMantis]

Yes indeed. I included that quest in this video as it is one of my favorites as well.

[@Koitsuba]

That's why I always take his finger. Always.

[@finalboss8514]

I love how new Vegas references the deathclaw egg farming

[@VicFromFallout]

Great job in this video. If you kill intelligent scorpion, you find google in his inventory. Those glasses give Renesco in new Reno ant 20 times ask him about new glasses. After that he be in rage and give you medical pip boy module

[@TKsMantis]

No shit? I didn't know that.

[@VicFromFallout]

@@TKsMantis and Leslie Boshop have another pipboy module in her safe. You need inteligence and high speak. If you ask her where she find education, she told you she is from Vault City. After that search safe and you find those pipboy module, if you use this module give you +10 speak. Rascal module is +10 to doctor. And do you know what happen when you find 10 pieces Cats paw magazine?

Don't remember all these side quests, so after I finish New Vegas (played about sixty hours as a good guy before making new saves to try out Caesar's Legion, beat the main quest and just generally be a dick for 20 hours, so now I'm going back to my unfinished playthrough to beat the game again and try out all the DLC) it's back to Fallout 1 and 2.

[@Ace0nPoint]

There's a couple shootouts in the Den, which are your first true real GUN FIGHT. That were just so fucking tense playing as a kid man. They were the fights that really bonded me with my favorite companion, Sulik, and made me stress no end over keeping him alive when he kept dropping his gun for a sledgehammer. lol.

[@unhingedcrouton]

Sulik is a monster with supersledge

[@spoonbruh741]

You’re slowly making me realize fallout 1/2 are cool asf and i s h o u l d be interested in them

[@Mikoxz]

Try it with Restoration Project mod and enjoy THE perfect game.

[@TKsMantis]

You should imo. Worth your time.

[@gorasul12]

I agree, the details in everything is something that makes the game shine, it seems the creators loved their creation.

[@kellerweskier7214]

the quirks in Fallout 2 that are relating to the quests is what makes it so entertaining. there really is very few 'dry' quests out there.

[@xX_wiLLiam_Xx]

dont let this distract u from the fact that U ARE OUT OF UNIFORM SOLDIER, WHERE IS UR POWER ARMOR?!?

[@jetroid]

I hope that in a future game we get a callback to Typhon's bottlecap quest, being given obsolete currency from NCR (like the coins from F2 - perhaps by >2281 they are obsolete as we only see paper in NV, or perhaps Legion Denarii after the legion collapse (but that makes less sense as legion coins are precious metals I believe)). Having 10,000 caps as a reward in F2 has always been on of my favourite jokes.

[@KubesVoxel]

Thanks for your videos on Fallout!

[@TheChainsaw105]

my favorite thing about Rose's Bed and Breakfast is that in New Vegas Jas Wilkins, the lady in charge of Sloan's mess hall, tells the Courier that her great aunt created the wasteland omelet in a town called Modoc until some asshole stranger rolled into town one day and shot her deathclaw in the eye

[@scomcg7950]

Trying to do all of the made man quests for the new reno families before having to choose a side always sticks in my mind. Also going to the military base from Fallout 1 was a great touch too

[@leithold315]

Super late, but you should make a video on the New Reno families and how to become a Made Man for each family. And of course, how to assassinate each boss after :D

[@tescoextreme1919]

I love your voice and your videos, you deserve that 40k to be quadrupled

[@TKsMantis]

You are too kind. CUT. IT. OUT!

[@patrickiamonfire965]

Tks-Mantis is has oversimplified the side quest for video purposes. He wanted the video to be short and have less spoilers. There are more endings to these side quest.

[@maciejmatejko7571]

Loved Fallout 2 as a kid, but somehow never got to solving the missing people quest. I think I assumed this was one of the many unfinished quests in Fallout. Childhood mystery solved, thanks!

[@LostCylon]

I often replay these games, sometimes because I missed something, sometimes with ''cheats'' because I wasn't able to do some things easily without, but mainly because I just enjoy the game so much. It's a rather complex ''vanilla'' game with a basic premise of ''What could have happened'' without going into unknown extremes, just wildy misunderstood common misinformation from the 50's... Nuclear holocaust, mutants, conspiracies etc., what could go wrong :p
