If you struggle with fallout graphics, you have massive problems. This for 1997 is beautiful, even watching it now I can’t believe how well it’s held up.

[@kg30004]

It still looks so good in 2024. Great art direction with that pre-rendered charm

[@dathunderman4]

Graphics aren’t really problem because of the isometric view. If this game was in FPS or third-person I might understand it, but the graphics here don’t really affect the game at all.

[@AHomicidalPear]

Real. These type of graphics still look great to this day imo. Same with the old elder scrolls games.

[@masterbuilder0018]

LMAO, no. Quake and Half-Life came out around the same time and looked immensely better. This was not above average for 1997.

[@MildMisanthropeMaybeMassive]

The 1st games in the Diablo and Baldur’s Gate series came out around the same time and eclipse Fallout in graphics. But Fallout mogged them in story paths and player choice consequences.

[@richardvennel9679]

OG fallout 1/2 gamer here. Got them in ‘97-98. Nowadays, I recommend using Fallout 1in2 mod to play FO1. It’s a Mod that uses Fallout 2’s Engine and quality of life fixes (i.e. you can push your party members out of doors so you don’t get stuck). Plus a “Take All” button. It also gives the option of cut content. Definitely worth revisiting 25 years later!

[@Kanto280]

Underrail is one of the worthwhile successors to the og fallout games. Once you've played them, they really are unique experiences with some of the most interesting writing games ever had because they couldn't just hide behind the graphics and were made with passion.

[@PassivPsychosen]

And wasteland also

[@MegaTroubleII]

Wasteland 2 and 3 are amazing. I’ve owned Underrail for a long time but it always seemed so intimidating, people make it out to seem like an immersive sim that plays like Fallout 1. Very excited to try it soon though.

[@TheOfficalHappyGold]

@MegaTroubleII Good luck. It's a difficult game, but once you have an effective build and immerse yourself in the quests and world, it's a brilliant experience. Not many like it

[@dyingculture]

It’s worth noting that the GOG/Steam versions of this are allegedly censored. Children were rendered invisible, addiction and drug-resistant images were removed, and all references to drug/s were substituted with the word chems. Fallout Fixt can restore it all. It’s not game-changing or anything but you might as well play it the way it was released.

[@clandeszipp4564]

Thanks for the info.

[@weggygaygay9940]

Only in specific regions. You should be playing with RPU installed anyways which fixes this.

The atmosphere of Fallout 1 and 2 are still unsurpassed to this day, mostly due to the color palette of the 2D art and the soundtrack, especially the soundtrack. Not even Fallout 3 comes close to them in that matter.

Im disapointed you havent said the MOST important part for new players, in barter window when you trade with other people, to not spend ages trying to buy something worth more then 100 but less then 999, you can just, use your keyboard number buttons to just type in the correct value like 420. I was so MAD when I learned it because first time playing I didnt know it so I had to constantly waste time just pressing and waiting for that number count to slowly reach 420.

[@ih8people]

[@AHomicidalPear]

Thank you. I bought this game and Fallout 2 because it was on sale. I started with fallout 3, and played new vegas, and 4. I skipped 76 thankfully. But I have put about 8 hours into this game and was still struggling with the beginning and kept being stubborn about my play style. The beginning stats makes so much sense. I pretty much nuked my character before starting without even realizing. I should've realized that different stats matter since you can’t just make up for lack of aim because this isn't a FPS. Halfway through the video and just wanted to mention this and help boost the algorithm. Thanks again homie.

Love the video but another tip for those who are brave enough: Book to to Shady Sands asap Ask Ian for directions to Junktown and The Hub Get to the hub, sell everything you find in Shady Pickpocket all the guards, tons of shotgun ammo (nice for selling) and stimpacks Buy Rad-X and Ropes from the General Store (lower prices) Get to The Glow for the Brotherhood holotape (remember to use your Rad-X) Go to the Brotherhood, they'll let you in and if you do this early enough you gain abt 1-3 levels worth of exp Repair the Power Armor in the basement for +3 stength and ofc the resistences (Optional) Pickpocket all the guards for energy ammo and gatling lasers If you have any money, you could also buy the implants This'll get you some of the best armor, a ton of ammo for energy weapons, and boosts to your SPECIAL stats.

Unarmed is useless? It is the most op combat category. You can go mad with the low ap costs and punch everything to death. Just aim for weakpoints and buy knuckles and later on the power fist.

Steal skill is super important in F1 and F2! You can steal so many cool items and you can sell them later and buy better guns and armor!

[@KDoFFF]

Besides from my first run I've never put anything into speech, because it didn't do anything. Is it actually useful?

[@AgusSkywalker]

Speech is essential, but it functions completely different than the modern games. For example in New Vegas if I need a 40 to pass a skill check, the game lets me know I have that option even if I don't have enough points. But if I do have enough points it tells me that I am using the speech skill for that dialogue. This isn't the case in FO1 and 2. The game never lets you know when you are making a speech roll. In FO3 you know when you are doing an speech roll and what the chance is, in the older games all of that is hidden from the player.

[@danielsurvivor1372]

2:03 Eh idk Unarmed is good if you get power fist or heck even other unarmed weapons. Throwing is definitely bad even if you have experience, first aid and doc is actually alr skills if you dont care about super mutant timer althought they're definitely not tag worthy(Im referring to the fact that if you play the game for too long after finishing water chip objective, slowly some towns are gonna get overrun by super mutants, I dont think any town except necropolis actually showcases it gameplay vise but in ending cutscenes you gonna get more bad endinds, the ones that work atleast F1 has tons of bugged endings that only mod fixes xd), steal is bad its one of only skills Im glad got merged into existing skill aka sneak, traps is bad especially if u dont mind save scumming, barter is trash, outdoorsman is worst one since apperently it only improves random encounters and only very few ones about water and gambling is not tag worthy but has a niche for brainless money making As for essential skills I agree although F1 surprisingly doesnt have that much lockpicking so you wouldnt miss thaaaat much but at the same time there arent many skills to tag anyway so might as well xD

[@ih8people]

Just go over to GOG and buy Fallout there, it has almost everything you need to run it on modern PC. Heck, even the 3rd is better patched than Steam version, and, unlike the Steam version, _it supports cloud saves._ BTW Fallout 1 et tu is a really great mod, and if you want the pure F1 experience, I think you only need to change two parameters in its settings file that introduce F2 weapons and critters into the game.

[@GraaD-87]

I could never understand complaints about classic Fallout (and Resident Evil) games' graphics or gameplay. Don't they still look and play... awesome? I mean, most 3D games actually do age very poorly (unless the art-style accommodates for it, e.g. XIII, Portal, Team Fortress 2). In my opinion Fallout 3/NV already looked just terrible a couple years after the initial release: low polygon count, low texture resolutions, bad-looking LOD crutches in place of actual optimisation, dated and blurry visual effects, etc. with no visible stylization to cover those flaws. Now, games like Fallout 1/2/Tactics with crisp sprites and pre-rendered environments and animations are almost timepless, nowadays percieved like a fine pixel-art. This type of graphics looks and feels just the same as 25 years ago: every pixel has the same color and position, every animation has the same sequence of frames, you just integer-scale the whole thing to whatever modern resolution you use and effectively percieve the very same image to get the same great experience as you would back then. Without smoothing the blocky picture. We used to call it photo-realistic, now we call it pixel-art, but the core idea is still there: to let our brain interpret those pixels and fill the blanks with our own imagination for extra details. Unlike those poorly-aged 3D games that clearly show us an easily-percieved lack of said details when being run in modern resolutions. And, dare I say, classic Fallout games are just more pleasant and fun to play than any kind of FPS/TPS games: you hold a cup of tea in one hand and click your mouse with the other, exactly as intended, with a rare click or two on a keyboard to use some skill or save the game if you feel like it. It's hard not to enjoy the process of inspecting the areas and turning enemies into a bloody/crispy mess in this glorious trimetric view (which is just perfect for calculated strategical planning) with all those beautifully gruesome death animations (pixel-perfectly detailed and pretty diverse). Yes, I'm saying that pre-rendered animations look and feel a lot better then those generic ones applied to all 3D-models. What trimetric Fallout games may seem to lack in first-person immersion compared to the new ones, they gain in joy of tactical turn-based combat and the feeling of mystery when you explore well-hidden corners of the map. So... don't be scared of the "dated" graphics or "archaic" gameplay. Good old Fallout has aged quite well except minor quality-of-life stuff that can be... FIXT.

Is fallout new vegas good for someone who has never played rpgs ??

[@nutbastard]

[@PeppinSpaghett.]

It’s basically just Fallout 3 but with more dialogue. So, yeah.

[@captdude81]

Unarmed useless? This man has never gotten the slayer perk. Doctor skill useless? There's actually an NPC you can get with doctor (I could be thinking fallout 2), and it definitely opens up other dialogue options, one I think that can directly impact the end of the game. Stealing useless? I mean, sure, you can save-scum and always successfully steal, but where's the fun in that? Still going... Barter useless? My man never sold back something for more than he bought it for, and infinite money glitched. Okay, for a first play-through, I would agree that most of these aren't going to serve you as well, but on your second, third, fifth, eighth playthrough then you definitely want to experiment, and see what you can uncover with other skills. There's a lot to see in Fallout 1/2 and every skill unlocks something interesting.
