Fallout 2

After bought this and tried to download it (tried being the main word here) I can no longer download anything on GOG for some reason

When this game was first released, it was fantastic and revolutionary. Now, it feels very dated and clunky. There is still fun to be had, but it is a pretty slow-paced game that has an invisible time-limit on gameplay. Eventually, you simply run out of time. Not realizing this at first, I took my time in the game and when I had to start over to play any longer, I was pretty much done with it. Perhaps there is a way to avoid this or a patch that prevents the game from suddenly ending, as the game has a large number of dedicated fans. I've played the beginning of the game several times and it is tedious for a couple of hours before it becomes interesting.

I had fond memories of FO1. I kind of stopped playing FO2 rather early. The quests are often just go-there-and-fetch, and are usually solved either with doing nothing or fighting. Skills are definitely not equal. Don't expect FO2 to be that game where you can play the oddball build, like a doctor or trader. It won't work. You need a maxed-out melee build, or any shooter. In fact you need to be a decent fighter to survive the first compulsory "dungeon". Many skills do you zero good if you increase them with your points (rather than magazines or trainers). Maybe I did miss something, but it shouldn't be that complicated. The interface is clumsy. It's not a date issue. There is no reason why you need to go through all those clicks just to give stuff to your allies, and no reason why you need the right click menu, or the hold-left-button thing. Does it get better? Maybe.

I have never finished this game, I didn't dislike it but I didn't love it either. It feels too unfocused when it comes to the main story, you just drift from place to place doing quests, and while it's somewhat engaging to have the amount of choices that the game provides you with when it comes to how to accomplish a task it also contributes to this pervasive feeling that arcs over the entire experience for me which is a my brain asking me "What's the point?". Why am I doing all this stuff? What's the point? Because I do not care at all about this stupid tribe that I was born into, the world isn't particularly interesting and outside of map pixel drawings there really isn't much worldbuilding the way that there is in New Vegas, which is to say, it's not convincing, I don't believe that this is a real world, I believe that the devs want me to believe that this is a real world.
