its also cool how each fallout game's rendition of the main theme feels very different, new vegas feels more dramatic and tense, fallout 4 feels heroic and hopeful while fallout 3 feels almost horrific

Just seeing the White House in fallout 3 was just something else..

I restarted playing fallout 3 yesterday , it seems like its getting revived, I won’t complain

The VATS system is actually a great tool for the fans of the older games. When they made fallout 3, they wanted it to become more reachable for the majority of gamers, so they got rid of the turn based mechanics, but to also appeal for the fan base of the older games they introduced VATS as this gives you pretty much the same turn base mechanic as the old games, thus satisfying the old and new fan base simultaneously.

Enjoying this one, you might actually dig the first two, old UI aside.

They're just as open world, just as funny and replayable, just as ridiculous.

9:42 that is not the only way to break up that marriage. Replay that mission, break into the basement and put the underwear on the husbands workbench and convince his wife that maybe he actually likes wearing it and keeps it a secret from her down in the basement

I use VATS the way the founding fathers intended; I do what I call a 'VATS pulse' where you hit the button, your lock on to a target, then drop right back out, aim and fire quickly because it snaps your aim directly to them. Just feels a little more authentic to me while still benefiting from the targeting abilities of VATS. While also smothing over a bit of the jankiness of FO3's gunplay.

Also, its funny that you say you never want to go to Tranquility Lane again. Yeah, me too, and fun fact, if you eber replay it and have a problem with Betty-Braun's instructions, you can snoop around and find a way to initiate the simulation fail-safe which will kill all of Braun's victims and leave him trapped in the simulation by himself until the Vault's equipment fails.

For me it was the moments in between that made me love Fallout 3. Blowing up raven rock and exploring around, seeing something off in the distance and going to see what it is, you hear the wind whip around you and Three Dog says "Heres Billie Holiday with Crazy He Calls Me" you hear the song play and are filled with this sense of wonder.

I was 12 when it came out, the game terrified me, was one of the only games i owned other than halo3 on xbox, and I had near infinite free time. It was so immersive and amazing in those days and the 10$ dlcs were so damn good.

"THREEEEEEEE DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWG"

The radio was so special. New Vegas didnt exist yet. It was so unique and it really felt like you were in a living wasteland, where your choices affected the world.❤

Fallout, Grand Theft Auto V, and Cyberpunk 2077 all have the same theme. That being living in California sucks

Play fallout 3 for long enough and ammunition becomes a thing that you won't have to worry about as you will develop a large stash of it in your journey through the capital wasteland

I know it may not be the best game but I love playing this game even decades later. Literally explored everything and all quest completed. and didnt have access to internet back then. So no youtube either. Had to figure everything else myself to.

Unironically, you're making me wanna start my 3 week FO3 binge

Your finally back bro❤

SPOILERS: If you ever decide to do a full evil playthrough, and you want to live at Tenpenny Tower. You can get a quest to blow up Megaton. Also if you are doing a good playthrough you can break the simulation in tranquility lane.

Vats makes the game half CRPG
Love me some vats

0:52 Ermm acshually The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is technically a post-apocalyptic game, as it takes place hundreds of years after the Oblivion Crisis🤓☝️great video btw

Fallout 4 jet became my V.A.T.S

When I first played fallout 3 I was like 8 years old and the game was so confusing to me , it’s funny to go back and wonder just why I found it so difficult
