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.

A very dry and nothing experiance

I was very surprised with how dry fallout 1 was (pun intended), the story and world is very dry with little personality. Most of the world is a grey blur, it really just exists to give the player a (at the time) unique setting for the combat system. The combat is obtuse yet overly simple; you have to constantly switch between movement and attacking instead of both of those being on a single button all just to walk up and punch something while controling only one character. The actual attacks are just percentile rng, you click on something to attack and you have a chance to hit and crit (at most complex you set traps down, stealth attack, shoot while your companion acts as a meat shield, repeat). You companions also have a random chance to hit you and the game is quite buggy. Not really worth your time unless you have nostalgia for the old fallout games.

Just watch a lore video.

This is one of those games I think are too old to be much fun. When I first played back in the early 2000s, sure! But the franchise has just come too far for this original entry to be much fun. No auto-saves! I got about an hour and a half in my first time, didn't even think about saving. I quickly learned to auto-save just about constantly. Graphics, not bad. It has a 2x render mode (doubled 480p = 960p) It works pretty well in full screen HD resolutions. Even lets you see more of the play space at once. Alt-tabbing sometimes turned the screen black. Easy enough to clear - just pause and un-pause did it for me. Controls are clunky. Read the manual, keep the reference card handy. Combat never managed to be appealing. Awkward, unsatisfying turn-based combat. I wouldn't want to see this remastered. Completely remade, maybe.

am I.... bored?

I've played plenty of older-style RPGs but none of them was so unbelievably boring as this one. go around switching between left and right click, with the most uninspiring story ever ("fetch this piece of scrap or we all die"), a "tactical combat" that means repeatedly shot and miss on rats... Not for me, sorry

Bethesda did right thing

Censored and missing goodies(avatars, wallpapers, bible, etc) and it costs 10.69$? Meh... Also game unbearably laggy on Dell Inspiron 15-3552 which is quite good to handle 30 years old game. You can understand the whole essence of the game immediately after leaving the Vault 13, even with a 75% chance of hitting the enemy, you can miss with the knife 4 times.or even more against basic rats. Bethesda made right thing to moving this to 3D.
