Metro vs Fallout which tells a better post apocalyptic story?

[GuyFawx]

I love both franchises and while both are kickass in their own ways which in your guys opinion tells a better "player" story we are not counting any books or media outside of the games. Imagine if these 2 franchises devs teamed up oof man i think id have my alltime fav game

Metro is the more realistic one. Fallout has way too much retro sci-fi stuff in it.

metro tell a better post apocalyptic story , no doubt

[GuyFawx]

ya thats the truth tho i still cant help but play everyone that comes out

Fallout has more opportunities to create your own story, your own journey. I think this is the main distinguishing feature.

In the Metro you can only go on the finished story, everything is tunnel, you can only go on rails planned by the developers.

however because of that the metro story is a bit more cinematic its story points are more impactful i feel

lol...fallout is a joke. Don't even put the two together.
Didn't even bother finishing Fallout 4 since it was ♥♥♥♥ and Fallout 76 is a joke, didn't buy. Fallout series always had a terrible story. Even fallout 3, I was bored with the story pretty fast.
Fallout and story does not compute.

Fallout maybe be a joke to you now however you cannot deny its influence what so ever

F4 may not be as good as F3 or FNV to some but it's still a pretty solid entry for the series. F76 on the other hand is an undeniable disaster.

fallout was more based around zany over the top future fantasy.

metro was more like a dark fantasy version of fallout with some stalker mixed in, so people were more "real".

different game types doing different things, both will build up characters and story in their own way and they will do it well, but do it VERY differently.

fallout does actually have some deep and well fleshed out lore it is just a shame bethesda never gave a f about that lore if they could make a buck off fans.

Metro for me .. Just based off of how good I remember the stories. I can't even remember what FO3 or NV were about. Fallout just lacks something for me to really be engaged in the story.

ya f76 imo feels like a rush job i didnt buy it but i have watched a few streams and it looks boring

[GuyFawx]

I also feel bad for anyone who never played the old 2d fallout games

I think it is time to invent a new genre for a Metro and Stalker type of games. They are not a Post Apocalyptic in a classic way. It is diffrent thing.

[GuyFawx]

I never played any of the stalker games are they definately worth trying out?
