I went and played Fallout 1 because I loved 3 so much… It took a few false starts (1 intelligence was a terrible call for a first playthrough lol, it ended bad)
Now I see it, 1 and 2 were so brilliant with the role playing and story that I can’t go back to 3! 😊 So many choices, strong characters, just brilliant.
I have always thought of Fallout 1 as such a pure RPG experience that gives you freedom and options. The main story line only has two objectives you must complete to beat the game, but getting there requires going out into the world and figuring out wtf to do and where to do it.
I recently did another playthrough, starting with 1. When I got to three, I spent a couple hours with it and just gave up. It’s just so shallow, bland, and lacking compared to 1 and 2.
New Vegas is the sequel 1 and 2 deserved, and Bethesda tries really hard to pretend it doesn’t exist.

Can’t you even skip one of those goals? What a great game 😁 It really does let you work it out, but not in an annoying puzzley way
