Description
Set in the aftermath of a world-wide nuclear war, Fallout will challenge you to survive in an unknown and dangerous world. You will take the role of a Vault-dweller, a person who has grown up in a secluded, underground survival Vault. Circumstances arise that force you to go Outside - to a strange world 80 years after the end of modern civilization. A world of mutants, radiation, gangs and violence.

Your immediate task is to find a replacement for the broken water purification controller chip. Without that chip, your fellow Vault dwellers are doomed to dehydration or will be forced to leave the safety of the Vault for the Outside.

The core of the game revolves around your character. Fallout uses a skill-based system to allow you to fine tune your character. As you gain experience (roughly half from combat, the other half from solving adventure seeds and non-combat events), your character will grow as you determine. Combat in Fallout is tactical turn-based. You can take as much time as you need to make decisions. Choose from different types of attacks, with a variety of weapons and attack skills.

Great Fallout

Great game, great fallout. It oozes atmosphere, the writing is excellent and the gameplay is your typical isometric tactical that is making a comeback nowadays.

Proof of Fallout concept

After playing Fallout NV, 3, and 2, this was a trip back to simplicity. You have a goal, and you are given a considerable amount of ways to accomplish this goal (or fail it). It straddles the deep and shallow end of complexity when it comes lore, factions, characters, and alignments, and after you rush through to avoid both timers (there are two time limits) you realize your actions and inactions and play again fixing your mistakes or exacerbating them. It just needed to prove what Fallout could be and threw in some solid characters and quests to boot.

I tried my best, but I couldn't do it

Duration: 14.5 hours  I once suspected it was my own problem until I watched someone else's process video. Why do I feel like I'm not playing the same game as others?   [Other people's pictures: clear and straightforward/Mosaic but the map is bright and clear.  My picture: It's all a mess/You can't see your hand in front of your face. Even with the maximum brightness, it's still hard to see clearly. You can only press your face against the screen. ]   [The gameplay of others: Tasks are completed smoothly and the plot unfolds gradually.  My gameplay: I completed this task. Why didn't the NPC trigger the next step? Why are others' tasks going so smoothly, but mine can't be carried out? And why do others have so many weapons? ]    Am I playing the same game as others?? It's very interesting. It's just that I'm too unaccustomed to eating fine bran. If I could add something like the ALT key in Diablo to display interactive items or the names of NPCS, I wouldn't give up. Otherwise, my eyes would go blind. (Crack)

One of the Best RPGs ever.

I have been a Fallout fan since the third entry and I have to say that these games never let me down. I usally don't play turned base RPGs, but this game probably changed that. The atmosphere and story are the best in the series and while some mechanics are dated, it still is diamond in the rough. I spent so many hours playing and I just couldn't help wanting more. I have played all the Fallout games and this is probably my favorite alongside Fallout 3. Play this game, you won't regret it.
