Godo game, needs mods to make it run

This game would not start up at all for me. The only way to make it work was to install the mod "A Tale of Two Wastelands". Unfortunately, that needs you to also own Fallout New Vegas. Fortunately for me, I did - both on GOG. Once I had installed that mod, when starting up the game up I needed to start a new game and then load my save game rather than load my save game straight from the menu. After that it ran fine.

Well done GOG

After originally downloading Fallout 3 from Steam and spending over a week trying to get it to work I gave up and deleted it and asked for a refund. I mentioned this on the LIZZ YouTube / Twitch site and she told me I should try the GOG version as it seemed to her and her followers to be a better version. She was spot on...I downloaded the game and followed the simple instructions to update my laptop system and the game started first time. I am not a hardcore gamer and there are only a few games I have via Steam, but they will be cancelled and I will move over to GOG . Again thanks for making my gaming experience easy.

Nostalgia glasses for me

Very off-topic here but I'm not sure what's wrong with everyone else's PCs... I'm on Win10 and I ran the game just fine. Thankfully, the game also supports cloudsaves so my save file was still there from 6 years ago apparently. Anyways, this was one of the very first RPG games I've played. I remember playing it on Win7 all those years ago and it had that stupid LIVE feature that everyone hated, lol. One summer break, we didn't have internet for a bit. I remember spending countless nights just roaming around in that game (especially the ship city area). I have fond memories of the game. I still think it's a solid game (though, New Vegas is the much better game). Thankfully, modding the game is quite easy since GOG uses the version of Fallout 3 that's most compatible with nearly all mods.
