Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition

Brilliant game but a pain to run

Firstly I’d say that I love this game. Fallout 3 was my first RPG and I’ve invested hundreds of hours playing it on xbox 360 over the years. The fact that I love this game so much is the only reason I stuck with it and didn’t ask for a refund sooner. This game is terribly optimised for Windows 10 users. I had heard that the GOG version was better than Steam and worked straight away, however it would still crash constantly when trying to start a new game despite trying multiple fixes. Personally I would suggest to anyone that bought this game to download TTW but that would also require New Vegas (a great game itself) but you shouldn’t have to purchase a whole other game just to be able to play this one. Installing TTW can also be very confusing for those who are not very experienced in modding and on top of that, I had to download NVAC to stop it from constantly crashing to desktop every time I entered combat. Fortunately, the game appears to be fairly stable now but it required a massive amount of time and effort to finally get working (far more than what is suitable). As I said above, I love this game so the effort it took was eventually worth it for me, but future buyers should be aware that it may require a tremendous amount of effort and hours of patience and more money just to get it running.
