Fallout 2

Dieses Spiel ist ein Meilenstein der Spielegeschichte!

Whilst the mandatory tutorial is tedious I can find few things wrong with this game. One could argue it's nostalgia, certainly, but I reinstalled this game relatively recently. There's some interface things that could be polished to provide quality of life improvements but other than that I find it flawless. Dialogue can be deep, it can be funny, it can be harrowing. The world is described through both the visuals and the textual descriptions provided. Combat can be brutal but also satisfying. Wasteland 2 was a lot of fun and I had hoped that it'd be what I was looking for in the sequel to this game. Whilst it was a lot of fun it was mainly combat. This game on the other hand provides a ridiculous number of ways to play. One can be sneaky, one can be violent, one can be malevolent, and if in need of comic relief one can be eye-wateringly stupid. The game accommodates all these play styles.

Fallout 2 is an incredible follow up to an already stellar game. The core mechanics of the game such as the combat and leveling system are mostly intact from the 1st game, with some changes introduced to make Fallout flow better. The world and settlements are varied and very interesting, with colorful and memorable NPCs and companions for the PC to interact with. My main criticisms for Fallout 2 fall upon the incredibly tedious travel system, the lack of multiple endgame decisions, and general frustrations with its gameplay. When you add bugs into the mix, Fallout 2 can very easily become an incredibly frustrating and user-unfriendly experience. I believe this is partially because Fallout 2 is a dated title, and partially because of the actual directing of the game itself. But even with the frustrations I had with the gameplay, I've come back to play Fallout 2 again and find myself discovering new things I never had before. While I stand by this statement, I'll also add that after the conclusion of the game, the world tends to run out of life rather quickly as the quests are no longer rewarding or worth the effort of trekking around the map and harassing NPCs. I would recommend getting as much as you can out of it before you actually finish the main story arc. FALLOUT 2 can at times be frustrating, but the story arc and combat are interesting and rewarding enough to keep you powering through in any case, perhaps even for multiple playthroughs. I would highly recommend Fallout 2 to anybody who is into more traditional isometric RPGS. Just give yourself some time to work out the kinks as far as gameplay.

Overview: I just completed my first playthrough of this lovely well aged title. I can recommend it to anyone who is a fan of isometric rpgs. There a great amount of story,content, open play styles,weapons,locations to explore and dialog to both make you laugh and cringe at the sametime. Slay all the npcs (except children) or let them live, you can do it all.I used the latest version of Fallout Restoration Project + Unofficial patch. Combat: The game uses turned based combat with Action Points All of your activity during combat phases cost AP(Action Points). You can go into combat phase whenever you want which can help you get the jump on enemies. Depending on how you spec your character + the weapon you can aim at specific body parts,burst fire, or normal shoot. Weapons: Explosives,Grenades,Pistols,SMGs,MGs,Rifles,Plasma + Laser Weaspns,,Flame Throwers,Rocket Launcher, & Melee weapons are present. Story & NPCs: I personally like the story of the game is is not to dark while not being to lite I found it to have a good balance. The events of Fallout 1 are told if you inquire enough so if you want to avoid Fallout 1 spoilers be careful about your dialog with some npcs.NPC's have personality and don't feel static but more alive than not. Your choices will be reflected on them when they speak to you. BGM: Suites the game quite well there are no radio stations like in FO3,NV and 4, but that not an issue since you get sunken more into the atmosphere of the game. I played it while running FO3 and IVs BGM since FO2 has a limited BGM track compared to them. Final Thoughts: I wish for more isometric post apocalyptic rpgs in the future they are rare even amongst the isometric rpg genre. Fallout 1 & 2 are great and should be played by any fan of the fallout lure or isometric rpg fan alike. It is 2017 and this game still is fun to play just shows that a well developed game can last forever.
