It features a larger world, more open exploration, more advanced dialogue trees, more complex character advancement, better companions, and more. Like, microscopic.īlack Isle Studios' Fallout 2 takes everything great about Fallout and cranks it up. While I settled on giving Fallout 3 the higher spot (for reasons I will go into in the next entry) imagine if you will an incredibly small gap between them. I was really torn as to whether the classic Fallout 2 or the more recent 3D attempt Fallout 3 deserved a higher spot on this list. A major bug that rendered the DLC unplayable on release garnered a poor reputation for an otherwise stellar bit of DLC. In fact, choosing a side grants not karmic reward of penalty as both sides have good and bad points. This DLC features and interesting, if not particularly long, storyline, and decision making that is morally gray even by Fallout standards. Along the way, moral choices are made, with the player being able to side either with the runaway slave or the head overseer.
The player is forced to become a slave and work their way to freedom. In The Pitt, the Lone Wanderer arrives responding to a distress call from a runaway slave and finds an area divided into two groups: the slaves and the overseers. Such is the case with The Pitt, a Fallout 3 DLC taking place in the remains of Pittsburgh, with a story centered around slavery and abuse.
The primary theme of Fallout is to take the horrors that humanity can cause and spin them using dark humor, leaving players laughing and thinking at the same time. Or maybe you're a fan and just like lists of things.Įither way, here's a list ranking all the Fallout games from the worst to the best. With so much to choose between, and each of the options requiring a not insignificant time commitment, it can be hard to decide which games and DLCs are worth the investment.
We've been abducted by aliens, thrown in the Pitt, faced off with a psychic, faced off with the Reds (in virtual reality), and even delivered some mail. The first game came out 20 years ago, and in that time there have been four main series games as well as several spinoffs and a chunk of DLC, produced by a total of five developers with different opinions on what makes a Fallout game. It has had a long journey from fairly niche computer RPG to the global powerhouse it is today. Its unique setting is now iconic among fans of open world RPGs and has sold millions of copies worldwide. Based on the fears of the Cold War era for the future, Fallout is an absurd mix of futuristic technology, old-timey sensibilities, and dark humor.
These are the ingredients of the popular and long running Fallout franchise.
