Fallout

Fallout

This one has the best story
Im not hating here at all but after completing fallout 4 i'd have to say fallout 1 still has the best story out of all them.

Fallout 2 is similar to fallout 1's story (quality wise) but the major problem i had was that you could only kill frank horrigan, couldnt talk him out of it like the master. Also i wasnt too fond of all the fourth wall breaks in the story. Made me feel like i was playing a parody of fallout 1 at certain points.

Fallout 3's story is very personal compared to fallout 1 & 2's world-saving stories. It's narrative of finding your dad was fine, and i did like the final battle until you encounter colonel autumn. Although i like how you could persuade him to back off unlike frank in fallout 2, but he wasnt that good of a antagonist too really feel why he did what he did unlike the master.

New Vegas had a pretty simple story, find the man who shot you, then join a faction to take control over new vegas. I feel like the backstory was really good though, and the characters and major quests make up for a more adventurous tale then fallout 3 story.

The story of Fallout 4 was basically fallout 3's except now your finding your son. I didnt think the story was bad, just i wanted something a little more fresh. I do really like the quest when you go through kelloggs's memories, brought back alot of memories from fallout 2. The ending stunk though i hated how there was no slideshow of all the places i helped.

What are your thoughts on the stories?

Frank horrigan is some kind of monster you cant persuade him also you can convience enclave soldiers to help you i like this part(there would be ending about soldiers did they escape rig or died?)Wall breaks is not that bad just ignore them if you dont like
Fallout 3 is lack of quest very short game
4? Dont talk about 4 imo

Fallout 1 has arguably the best story that any game has ever had. Mostly setting wise, but that's why the Fallout movie treatment was so good. Fallout 1 is book/movie worthy. Fallout 2 is good but not as good as 1. Fallout 3 is a straight up copy/paste of F1 and 2's story (vault dweller meets Enclave). Almost no originality. Fallout 4 is just more ADD ♥♥♥♥ piled onto the Fallout 3 universe.

Thanks for the laugh. Can see it now. A straight to DVD release. Starring Steven Seagal and one of the lesser Baldwin brothers. Let it gather dust on the store shelves beside all the other B-Movies that are similarly chock full of low rent pop-culture references in lieu of originality.

Stay that way, kiddo. Sad how you had to copy what I already said to you 23 hours ago: http://steamcommunity.com/app/385760/discussions/0/353916184349892763/?ctp=10

Can't think of anything original, my little puppet? You made it too easy, kid. All I had to do is prove you wrong once, over 6 months ago and now all you do is follow me around as I pull your strings. You would have thought you'd be over it by now, but asshurt little kids like you can't get over being proven wrong I guess.

Stalkbug, my obsessed and obedient pet.

I have obviously been playing too much Crusader Kings.

They need to make that Fallout movie, it would be epic and a whole lot better than all those other ADD post-apoc movies like Book of Eli.

Look out! Your impotent rage is showing. In case you're wondering why you can't comment on my page any longer; there's only so much rage filled comments I can accept on my screenshot page before you have to enter the blocked user list.

Had any one of your angry comments displayed originality, I'd have let you continue. Alas, it was the usual teenage "humour". Standby and watch me yank the strings on the angry puppet some more.

Starbug's my stalker. I proved him wrong in some thread 6 months ago and he's followed me around ever since. He's obsessed.

But back to the topic: We need that Fallout movie... Or we need Obsidian to get another crack at a Fallout. Only way to save the franchise.

Obsidian probably won't be getting a shot at the fallout franchise again, unfortunately.
If you consider yourself a fan of the original fallout series, then I recommend keeping up with Van Buren, or playing fallout 1.5. Either way, I doubt a movie of Fallout will ever be happening, although it has potential.

Yes on both accounts, but I can still dream.

Because that's how forum trolls like Starbug thrive. Even leaving him alone is ineffective once you've gotten on his bad side. Knows how to hold a grudge that one.
