i remain a fallout 1 loyalist, and i think fallout should be tense, foreboding, and terrifying, with just enough cutesy veneer to disarm you

obligatory: you can have a post-nuclear wasteland adventure that is tense, foreboding, and terrifying in rimworld. you may also have a child named shaun in it, if you like

they really are very good

fallout 2 can be a bit eye-rolly in retrospect, but the flexibility of the systems and the responsiveness to your choices are remarkable. i'll always treasure my unarmed stupid playthrough, i loled so much at that

at one point GOG would just add FO1, FO2, and FO Tactics to people's accounts for free. idk if that's still the case though

it’s awesome that this exists, but it is deeply humorous to me that to play this game in tyool2024 you have to install like 30 mods to fix the broken piece of poo poo Bethesda is still selling

its because you don't actually have to install any of these mods to play the game

all fallout media including the tv show are flawed in different ways but also very fun to consume.

is there any bethesda game that isn't like this

technically fo76 since multiplayer means a bunch of geometry and game-changing mods can't exist/get ignored by the server. but there are mods. they replace textures with bigger ones, make small items visible for low-vision users, or alter the map and inventory management ui. mods aren't allowed per se but if you're not duping bethesda doesn't care so there's several popular ones

the difference is, the dev team is still involved so they'll add features and fixes if the community needs them. neat ones are text inputs for various item stacks so inventory management doesn't suck and adding persistent community drop boxes since players were using blue suitcases at train stations to share items with other wanderers passing through

2 is one of the few game kickstarters that really delivered hard. i enjoyed it and the big pile of kit they sent me with my copy

been sitting in the center of the uusi aurinko for like 20 minutes now watching it shave off 3.5 million health - seems to be getting exponentially slower for some reason

just noticed that subnautica ultimate bundle is 70% off on steam

That's the original game and below zero (and soundtracks) for just over $20

although the individual games are also on sale, and buying just the games is cheaper than the bundle
