Was it a good RPG?
>>741794664no1 and 2 are the only fallouts to hold that distinction
>>741794664not even close to a good rpgit gets praised by /v/ only because it was their first fallout experience
>>741794664Yes. Even if you don't think it's good, it's still the best Bethesda rpg of all time
>>741794757Fallout 3 is better than 1 as an RPG but worse than 2
Bethesda doesn't even know what RPGs are. They think it's as simple as letting the player choose knife or handgun and then just shooting everything without any superseding stat skill determining how effective they are.
>>741794664It was a polished American S.T.A.L.K.E.R. so yeah it was good
>>741794664No but it's a good atmospheric shooter with a novel gimmick, and that's enough.
>>741794896correct
>>741794664Yes it's good. It's just mediocre or flawed at worst.
>>741794757Fallout 1 is way too short to be good
>>741794664Its ok
>>741794664It's a good dungeon crawler and it has a lot of replay value in build variety. The open world is probably the best Bethesda ever designed if you can get past the story being retarded and a lot of the quests being insane.
>>741794664No. It's a competent action game
Can someone explain what they actually like about this game? I've played 2, NV and 4 and cannot think of a single thing 3 does better than any of them.
>>741799032I think you're the first person I've seen that has played 2 but hasn't played 1. Anyway I guess 3 has better map design and exploration than 2/NV
>>741799032It has a better post-apoc feeling, way more sparse and dead, for the people who like that.
Not particularly, no. Your only options for roleplaying is goody-two-shoes and kills people for fun. You can be "neutral" which just means sometimes you do perform actions of one and sometimes the other.
>>7417947572 also sucks. Obviously only 1 is good
>>741796913>open world is probably the best Bethesda ever designed It's just shitty low res brown sludge
>>741794664>>741794757It's unironically more of an RPG than 1 and 2.In 3, if you dump points into a skill you see instant change the next you use it. Also, most quests have both a good and evil karma outcome. In 1 and 2, you're railroaded into being good karma for most of the content.Neckbeards from NMA will claim that 1 and 2 are "true" RPGs when really it's just obtuse and confusing with the information given passed off as brainy and tactical.
