I really wanted to like Fallout 2 because I've been hearing about how good it was since Fallout 3 was still new. The beginning just sucks so bad if you aren't into melee or unarmed. By the time I got my ultra lucky/agile gun guy on his feet, I was already filtered by the ghost farm quest. It was such bullshit.
>Find Karl in 31 days or we kill the cave people.
Even if you know exactly where to find him, it takes almost a month to make a trip. There's little room for error.
>Oh him? He was last seen heading northwest.
He's directly west in The Den. Anyone who hasn't experienced/doesn't remember this quest would fuck it up right there. Unless they just thought the random drunk in Mom's Diner was super memorable. Well, he is once you get fucked for him. Time to start over with a Melee build.
>You offended me by offering me a meal instead of giving me beer money. Give me alcohol so I can pass out for two hours. Then, we'll talk.
Karl sobs as you walk off without telling him you'll let people know what happened to him and he can go home.
>Hey, would you tell Karl it's okay to come back?
I quit after going to the nuclear power plant. Harold can figure it out himself. Fuck Karl. Fuck that guy with the gold watch. I blew up an outhouse and got shit all over the entire town and I can't even remember what I got.

A Goonies reference. Many such cases

Adding Hey Fred to the filter btw

Don't know about you but I found the Jet manufacturer quest really daunting. New Reno in general after all that you can do up to that point feels really nothing special at all. I got to the point where I could quest in the NCR but by that point I really didn't give shit about meeting President Tandi.

All in all, I can't say Fallout 2 wasn't fun. It definitely has really good and I'd say better mechanics than the first game, but compared the storyline of the first game it can't even hold a candle to it. The Master as a villain was *masterfully* done and at no point did it feel like the story had an unnatural progression to it.

I'm usually not one to complain about the length of games aside from my own subjective scheduling, but it would have been nicer to make the player feel like they're progressing through it rather than have it feel like a forced, long and drawn out single arc just to meet Frank Horrigan

I don't think I ever did that one. Definitely never made it to Frank Horrigan or the oil rig. I can't remember my level or exactly how far in the main quests I was in my first attempt, but I'd become an honorary ranger and got the Highwayman running.
I agree with everything you said though.
It seemed like they improved on nearly everything, but I just didn't enjoy it as much. Progression for me meant going mostly clockwise around the map and doing what I could at each location before moving on. Oh, and it felt like guns got a lot less accurate. You're slaying shit with a 10mm pistol early on in Fallout 1, but it seemed like 100+ small guns was just doing way less than expected for The Chosen One's performance.
Honestly, I might have a lot more fun if I just used a strategy guide and didn't play it after Fallout 1 with the intention of getting to Fallout 3. The former leaves me weary of older games by the time I'm 12 hours into Fallout 2 and the latter has me growing resentful of the time I'm spending on my way to the Capital Wasteland.

Say what you want about Fallout 2, but the boxing matches always crack me up.

complaining that fallout 2 is bloated is odd
fo1 is notoriously short and has a fuckton of cut quests
2 also is pretty short and has a lot of cut content

Why is there like 4 threads with this same shitty template?
