So a new Fallout show comes out today and I thought while I'm still ahead of the curve I'd give my ranking of the mainline games. Don't let Todd Howard see this.
@@jordanvoskampreally? I thought the prewar opening was really well done and thought the set up for the rest of the season well. I definitely thought it felt like it fit in the fallout universe
@@jordanvoskamp ik what you mean but you gotta hear me out. I finished it today and tbh its not an amazinggggg show but if your really into fallout it's defiantly worth the watch. Especially because they drop some new super interesting lore that makes a big difference in the fallout universe.

I think the reason fallout 4 dialogue is so small compared to other games is because of the voiced protagonist, imagine having to voice all the protagonist dialogue in fallout new vegas...
@@iitsCarml "not really simpler." Voice actors get laid to talk. Company pays voice actors to talk. Pay more for more talk. It literally is that simple.
@captainawf2341 now figure out now to integrate all those voice lines into the game, how to localize for multiple languages, how to prevent audio files from bloating the game, and ensuring that the voices sound decent enough to an audience.

Fallout 3 will always hold a special place in my heart It was one of the first games i ever played, and i loved almost every bit of it I probably played through the game a dozen times

The fallout franchise has so much potential and it’s upsetting that it’s Bethesda that has it because they aren’t the same team that made Skyrim. Starfield disappointed me more than Cyberpunk because at least that game had a rock solid foundation in a VERY interesting world.
The most disappointing thing about Starfield and Fallout 76, is Bethesda wasted all their time and money on two games nobody really wanted, and pushed back the games everyone actually wanted by more than a decade.
I'm not excited at all for Elden scrolls or Fallout sequel with what they shown with Starfield. Simply embarrassing. Worst of all the loading screen is a nightmare, After all the years of open worlds with not as much Loading screen playing Bethesda games is such a horrendous experience.

What, 76, 4, 3, 2, 1, then NV. I love Billy C but it's pretty easy to guess considering that seems to be the standard. Edit: Holy shit I almost got it exactly.
Tenpenny tower doesn't have a moral dilemma, the ghouls are just evil. If you convince the residents to let them in the ghouls kill everyone. Tenpenny is right to keep them out
i think it’s an intereting, if misguided, way of showing a cycle of violence which is very fallout-y most of the residents despise ghouls openly, and only begrudgingly accept them if the player does a lot of convincing - they’d prefer to just slaughter all the ghouls. and likewise, the ghouls have built a hatred towards the tenpenny residents and want to take out that rage thanks to Roy being an extremist. it shows how hate just builds more hate, and innocent - even good - people like Dashwood get caught in the crossfire of hate and bigotry. it tackles an oppressed group also committing atrocities, which is fairly rare. i think it was a mistake to make it solely a murderfest though. if the quest was more fleshed out and you had more influence on what happened it would be more engaging. the themes it covers are very good, it just needed to bake a little longer and characters like Roy and Tenpenny needed more to their characters than “i hate humans” and “i hate ghouls.”

Nitpick with me..when you holster your weapon on fallout 4, it just disappears On fallout 3, most weapons hop on yout back, or holstered to the side. I know some big weapons disappear, but most firearms are viable when you holster. You just look like a badass with a rifle sitting on your back
I haven't been able to watch it yet but my girlfriend is a massive Fallout fan and watched a few episodes. She says it's super faithful to the look and tone of the games so I'm excited to catch up after work!
FO3 was my first fallout game, Broken Steel was added because of the issue that Billy had stated, that being Fawkes said nuh uh and wanted you to kys to start the purifier AND the fact you couldn't play after the ending, and therefore Broken steel was added alongside the new Hellfire power armor. Edit: It also raised your level cap to 30 and the goated energy weapon: the tesla cannon.
I had the opposite reaction with Fallout 4 honestly. I was really disappointed with it at launch, mainly due to the voiced protagonist and lack of RPG elements in the story. But now its one of my favorites to go back and play just because of how fun the game-play is on survival mode. Settlements are actually important since you cant fast travel, the combat is fast and deadly, power armour is easily 100x better than any of the other games, weapon and armour crafting is great, and the perk/skill system is probably the best in the series.
yeah power armour in fallout 4 and 76 actually feel like you would expect power armour to feel where as in fallout 3 (the only other fallout i've played) it just feels the same as normal armour
Fallout 4 has no skill system lol, perk system felt super shallow since it didn't really encourage much difference in game play. It's also a little disappointing that no matter what if you play a character enough it'll have the same build every time.
@@BigJoe2600 All skill systems give the illusion of replayability with different builds. There is no "encouragement" to play different builds in any of them. Everyone ends up just doing the same build over and over because that is what they are comfortable with...like how I am a sniper every time, no matter if I am shooting a bow in Skyrim or a gun in Fallout. I think Fallout 4 is just honest about it, and says here you go....play the game the same every time because you would have anyway.
By guessing we should do both, pray that it’s good and that it doesn’t destroy New Vegas and Run because they’re gonna make one single ending so anything by you do doesn’t matter. (I’m praying for the brotherhood destruction, I just hate them.)
8. Fallout Brotherhood of Steel 7. Fallout 76 6. Fallout Tactics 5. Fallout 4 4. Fallout 3 3. Fallout 1 2. Fallout 2 1. Fallout New Vegas Some days, Fallout 2 is my favorite instead. And Fallout 1 has my favorite story. It is easily the most tonally and thematically consistent game in the series. It is also the only Fallout game without any extraneous elements. You could download it now and complete it in 15 to 20 hours.
@@Breeceboyi disagree. I prefer fallout 3 because the story (while not great, is better), the dialogue is wayyy better, better quests/sidequests, and more roleplay opportunities, also being comically evil is super fun
@@completelynormalperson7077 Okay thats a fair point, the only one of those I would contest is better quests/sidequests, fallout 3 probably does overall have better quests but its not that big a difference. I also like fallout 4's DLC more, and fallout 4 survival mode is one of the most immersive ways to play fallout imo
8:18 from my personal experience after a few 900ish hours in fallout 4, the karma thing is mostly with dialogue, some characters like you if you are all goody two shoes (like NPC's like you and are friendlier with you - diamond city has NPC's run around and give you stuff, like some ammo they found or some food or water, some shops even give small thank you stuff like a few rounds of ammo) while if you are hated the NPC's don't do this, from what I've heard their may be higher prices in the shops and NPC's can refuse to speak to you.
I have 2000 hours in fallout 4 because of mods(over 200 usually), I have 2000 hours in fallout new Vegas because of the game(with like 5 stability and graphics mods). That says a lot
FA4 I had a moment where I was in a shootout with a bunch of riders that referenced me as the phycho that goes around absolutely demolishing their camps. That was a WTF moment, because they were talkin to eachother while in cover while in a shootout with me.
76 gets such bad rep. It was pretty bad on release but just, give it a try now, it's a great Fallout experience, and the game is on sale very often, if not free.
Other than the micro transactions it's a super solid game. A little grindy, but still really fun. I'll be real the entire games lore and debates over it gets tiring, so FO76 is an enjoyable game to kind of get away from it a bit.
When I first played Fallout 3 and New vegas, I hated them, but then my friend pointed out that I was basically speedrunning them. I played rdr2 before this, so I comprehended the idea of doing other things before the main quests, but when I played Fallout 3, I rushed through and found myself fighting minigun weilding supermutents, with a hunting rifle. I love both these games now that im playing them right
With fallout 4, the biggest issues for me, was how the factions got implemented and the way the settlement system removed any trade/quest hubs that could have been present. I wanted the Railroad to actually have more people hidden in other cells that we could interact with. Minutemen got encountered too early, should have just been the concord survivors who tell you that preston tried to hold the raiders off and you go get him at LExington. Institute should hve let you pick a division head to become the new leader and each one has a different main goal. Brotherhood was really the only one that felt fully fleshed out. But I would have liked a way to turn settlements into brotherhood outposts/railroad safehouses/institute integration centres. New Vegas' main issue is the way the map funnels yu so much in the first 8-10 hours (unless you rush/skip the canyon trek to vegas). If you skip it, you just miss out on like 20% of the game. After 10+ replays, it loses fun for each new playthrough. Takes the longest to let me do whateve I want. 3's worst issue was combat and main quest ending. 2's biggest issue is that it feels more like a completely different game set in a different post apocalypse, instead of a sequel to 1. Even though it's my favourite game, I think it's the worst main series. 1's biggest issue isn't really fair, since it was tredding new ground in everything.
22:14 I totally agree with this, I only got into Fallout a couple days ago through seeing clips of the very first game, and It completely entranced me. It's visuals, story, and voice acting are all phenomenal. I always wondered why the rest of the series never interested me before. Guess I'm just a sucker for old pre-rendered games
I let my sister play New Vegas and she loved it, start off on the best fallout for a better experience She chose a melee build and the yes man ending Very different than me, too cool
Cant believe you didnt mention Fallout 4's atmosphere, it was such a downgrade from fallout 3 and NV, It doesnt even feel like a post apocalyptic world and the interiors are boring. The entire world seems like it has no aesthetic or style its quite boring compared to fallout NV or 3 which had a distinct art style and aesthetic.
I been playing fallout four for the first time and I’m in love with it. It’s one of my favorite games of all time now. If you say it’s this bad I can’t wait to see what the rest of the series has to offer
I would keep your ranking but swap New Vegas with Fallout 2. Fallout 2 is raw and full of whores, drug addicts, people who barely keep their shit together and overall nasty place to live in but grander with more content than Fallout 1... I mean you can have forced gay marriage in this game then sell your spouse to slavers and use money from that transaction to either buy guns to kill those slaves AND your spouse (to free up slot for better party member lol) and get high on drugs you looted from salvers.... name one game when you can do this. Vegas is close but it missed on that nasty front. Even though Vegas wasteland is full of deadly mutants,, it is still too "nice" compared to old Fallouts.
I mean, there are certainly still whores, slaves, and drug addicts in NV. Don’t you remember finding the torture dungeon in the gamorrah where the guy would kidnap prostitutes and torture them to death?
@@BillyCobbOfficial I am not saying there weren't any such examples... just much less of them to paint shitty to live in post apocalyptic future imagined by original Fallouts.
My ranking (not including 76 i didn't play it) before seeing yours 1 : Fallout New Vegas 2 : Fallout 1 3 : Fallout 4 (although it's very close to 2) 4 : Fallout 2 5 : Fallout 3
I feel like the game is still interesting until the reveal with shaun because the main quest has this cool stuff with going into kellog's head, meeting valentine and helping the commonwealth. Sure the main character trauma is not exploited but his cluelessness about this new world is interesting some times I also liked the double agent thing that the railroad has going on when you side with the institute at the same time Even if it falls flat in the end. Also far harbor kinda saves the lackluster ending for me by giving more depth to the synths and atom's church. Overall i find fallout 4 frustrating yes but its good elements like the followers the custom weapons and some quests really make the game cool in the end.
I liked fallout 2 and lot and i think it's almost tied with 4 for me, but the jokes and 90s references took me out of the game many many times. Like, the lore with navarro, the enclave and the chi is cool but a lot of humor diminish the stakes compared to the first which was really grim. Think about the hubologist who are a jab at scientology with the discount tom cruise, the comical mobsters in new reno and some dialogue of the chi people that is very stereotypical I Also find the game really unforgiving especially in the beginning depending on your build. For the companions some of them are nice but the scrapped content really hurt sulik (lorewise) and cassidy, byron and marcus are fine tho.
My list is probably unpopular 1.) Fallout new vegas 2.)fallout 4 3.) Fallout 3(super close to 4) 4:) fallout 2 5.) Fallout 1 6.) Fallout 76 I havent played tactics or BOS but i dont think id like them
@georgetriantafyllidis6525 well alot of people would find it odd I put fallout 4 so close to new vegas given how drastic they are but fallout 4 scores high because of my personal experience(played it when I was rlly depressed) and it's graphics and gunplay are fun,power armor is also the best in that game for sure
I think the biggest thing against 76 is that its a live service meaning you have to put alot of time in it to really get anywhere and you miss out on alot if you start late or take a break you miss out on stuff. Its just not the type of game i personally enjoy or have the time for.
for me 4 has the world i enjoy exploring and making my own fun in but the story is basic, the factions ALL suck and as fun as nuka world is and i do love, having to destroy what you may have built seems dumb. fallout 3 i enjoy the least, i find the 360 era game clunky and 3 just feels like metro tunnel simulator. new vegas has the best factions but the world isnt engaging by nature of being set in a desert. when they remake 3 and new vegas i think that will be amazing. 76 i can only stomach if i pretend that the simulation theory is correct and all the daft stuff thrown at the players is to simulate how people would repsond. i think the world is great, theres a ton of diversity, but it quickly becomes the daily live service grind and someone in charge of the daily stuff clearly has a fetish for people eating dog food. my ranking would be 1- Fallout 4 2-New Vegas 3- 76 4- fallout 3 havent played the other and as much as ive seen a ton of play thrus im not going to pretend ive played them to rank
F:NV is the gold standard. Everything else is inferior and everyone knows it. The DLCs are diverse and varying degrees of "excellent." I seriously can't ever decide on which one is my favorite, but Roger Cross voicing "Ulysses" makes "Lonesome Road" a real treat. The mix of humor, drama, action and horror is spot-on. Oh, and the SOUNDTRACK. If the graphics and UI weren't so painful and outdated, I'd still play it regularly.
I recently beat Fallout 4 for the first time last year after getting it since its release and I was very disappointed with it (Still Am, Somewhat) but I’m not starting a new game. But it was more easy to get into years later when I’m looking at it from a perspective of what Bethesda want Fallout 4 to be instead of thinking what Obsidian want Fallout 4 to be, because playing Fallout 4 with Obsidian’s perspective in mind will piss you off.
yes, if you want to take the time to work out binding the buttons to keys and potentially modding it. it's mostly controlled with the mouse so the right touchpad will be used the most.
19:10 their ideals remain the same except here, there's an opponent to the FEV plan in a position of power, Autumn. They weren't really amazing villains in either game. Iconic, memorable, sure but not amazingly written. Though you can totally criticise F3 for barely changing them. I just hope they come back as actually compelling differents instead of ANOTHER retread.

@@FlyingwithFire No it's literally the exact same video. Just type in "NoobNut125 Laser Musket" and it'll come up (RUclips didn't like me posting the direct link apparrently)
Worst thing about Fallout 4 is how it’s Power Armor mechanic always grabs me by the balls. I want to play New Vegas (and I am) but I keep booting 4 just to walk enter my PA, walk around in it and kill stuff.
I’ve never played fallout 2 but I think it’s quite funny how this guy says that there was this plot twist he found surprising and then proceeds to spoil it
Very good video. Even though I haven't played any fallout games or watched the show. I still understood every point you're talking about. Do you think one should mod the game or play it vanilla?
Man from pure nostalgia and core mems, I'd have to give Fallout 3 my number one spot, followed by New Vegas. Those games could use a fresh coat of paint sure, but they're both so great and so memorable. "hello wastelanders, this is Three Dog ahhwooooooo!" lol. Then NV for fantastic story and world. I went back and played 76 a couple years ago and it was pleasantly surprised when it was pretty fun. I'd give it another go in 2024. Then I actually haven't played 4 in the longest amount of time. Supposedly it's player count is up 500% from the show. Debating whether to come back to that or 76 after watching the show and feeling inspired to come back to the wasteland. I loveee 3 and NV, but they just haven't aged quite as well
Its crazy that i literally JUST got into fallout the other day with New vegas and ive been subscribed to Billy Cobb for years lmaoo what a conwinkadink
10:26 this shit easily summarized the Laser Musket. After first using that thing in its “intro quest” in 2015, I ditched it and downloaded a shitload of mods.
at 21:01 the complaint about Fawks not entering the Project Purity control room gets addressed if you have the Broken Steel DLC where you can send him into enter the code. Only thing is the ending narrator calls you a coward for doing it

That ncr ranger wojak with a flamethrower on the thumbnail looks terrifying
Why didn't you include Fallout: Pinball?
oh i know the show's gonna have that visual spectacularity, it has the team behind the boys on it, and that shits awesome
I haven't been able to watch it yet but my girlfriend is a massive Fallout fan and watched a few episodes. She says it's super faithful to the look and tone of the games so I'm excited to catch up after work!
@@thestraydog Yeah ive seen the episodes so far theyre really good
Ngl I think most of your takes are wild and even a bit unhinged, but I appreciate your work and enjoyed the video
FO3 was my first fallout game, Broken Steel was added because of the issue that Billy had stated, that being Fawkes said nuh uh and wanted you to kys to start the purifier AND the fact you couldn't play after the ending, and therefore Broken steel was added alongside the new Hellfire power armor.
Edit: It also raised your level cap to 30 and the goated energy weapon: the tesla cannon.
I had the opposite reaction with Fallout 4 honestly. I was really disappointed with it at launch, mainly due to the voiced protagonist and lack of RPG elements in the story. But now its one of my favorites to go back and play just because of how fun the game-play is on survival mode. Settlements are actually important since you cant fast travel, the combat is fast and deadly, power armour is easily 100x better than any of the other games, weapon and armour crafting is great, and the perk/skill system is probably the best in the series.
Fr
yeah power armour in fallout 4 and 76 actually feel like you would expect power armour to feel where as in fallout 3 (the only other fallout i've played) it just feels the same as normal armour
Fallout 4 has no skill system lol, perk system felt super shallow since it didn't really encourage much difference in game play. It's also a little disappointing that no matter what if you play a character enough it'll have the same build every time.
@@BigJoe2600 All skill systems give the illusion of replayability with different builds. There is no "encouragement" to play different builds in any of them. Everyone ends up just doing the same build over and over because that is what they are comfortable with...like how I am a sniper every time, no matter if I am shooting a bow in Skyrim or a gun in Fallout. I think Fallout 4 is just honest about it, and says here you go....play the game the same every time because you would have anyway.
@@JasonEllingsworth just because that's how YOU play the game isn't a reason for there to be less player expression in a ROLE-PLAYING GAME
I was coping and seething at the placement of Fallout 4
But after the explanation at 11:38
I am like “Understandable have a nice day”
Hey Billy i was just wondering if you were going to do more covers of songs you can hear on the fallout radio
Ps love your music
Soooo... fallout season 2 will be in new vegas, should we run or pray?
By guessing we should do both, pray that it’s good and that it doesn’t destroy New Vegas and Run because they’re gonna make one single ending so anything by you do doesn’t matter. (I’m praying for the brotherhood destruction, I just hate them.)
8. Fallout Brotherhood of Steel

1. Fallout New Vegas
Some days, Fallout 2 is my favorite instead. And Fallout 1 has my favorite story. It is easily the most tonally and thematically consistent game in the series. It is also the only Fallout game without any extraneous elements. You could download it now and complete it in 15 to 20 hours.
Almost everything in fallout 4 is better than fallout 3. Both have a very flawed main story but fallout 4 is just better
@@Breeceboyi disagree. I prefer fallout 3 because the story (while not great, is better), the dialogue is wayyy better, better quests/sidequests, and more roleplay opportunities, also being comically evil is super fun
@@completelynormalperson7077 Okay thats a fair point, the only one of those I would contest is better quests/sidequests, fallout 3 probably does overall have better quests but its not that big a difference. I also like fallout 4's DLC more, and fallout 4 survival mode is one of the most immersive ways to play fallout imo
@@Breeceboy super fair, tbh i love 4, a lot, and it does come close behind 3, and I think 4’s dlc is good.
NEVER RANK AGAIN 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫
8:18 from my personal experience after a few 900ish hours in fallout 4, the karma thing is mostly with dialogue, some characters like you if you are all goody two shoes (like NPC's like you and are friendlier with you - diamond city has NPC's run around and give you stuff, like some ammo they found or some food or water, some shops even give small thank you stuff like a few rounds of ammo) while if you are hated the NPC's don't do this, from what I've heard their may be higher prices in the shops and NPC's can refuse to speak to you.
I have 2000 hours in fallout 4 because of mods(over 200 usually), I have 2000 hours in fallout new Vegas because of the game(with like 5 stability and graphics mods). That says a lot
BILLY TALKING ABOUT FALLOUT FOR 40 MINUTES?!?!🎉
FA4 I had a moment where I was in a shootout with a bunch of riders that referenced me as the phycho that goes around absolutely demolishing their camps. That was a WTF moment, because they were talkin to eachother while in cover while in a shootout with me.
Bro i listen to your stuff in the gym and now u talk about fallout what a time to be alive.
I did not realize this was Billy…. Great video dude! Entertaining and hilarious
76 gets such bad rep. It was pretty bad on release but just, give it a try now, it's a great Fallout experience, and the game is on sale very often, if not free.
Other than the micro transactions it's a super solid game. A little grindy, but still really fun. I'll be real the entire games lore and debates over it gets tiring, so FO76 is an enjoyable game to kind of get away from it a bit.
For me
1. Fallout New Vegas
2. Fallout 3
3. Fallout 4
4. Fallout 1
5. Fallout 2
6. Fallout 76
Why put Fallout 1 and 2 so low? Did you play them or did you give up because they are difficult
Nah bro fallout 2 amazing what are you on?
Well his name is we're always correct so. We're right with FO 1 and 2 being better. How nice of him :)@@thecitrine1675
I get you fallout 1 and 2 are a bit dated compared to the others
But fallout 2 is clear of 1
When I first played Fallout 3 and New vegas, I hated them, but then my friend pointed out that I was basically speedrunning them. I played rdr2 before this, so I comprehended the idea of doing other things before the main quests, but when I played Fallout 3, I rushed through and found myself fighting minigun weilding supermutents, with a hunting rifle. I love both these games now that im playing them right
With fallout 4, the biggest issues for me, was how the factions got implemented and the way the settlement system removed any trade/quest hubs that could have been present. I wanted the Railroad to actually have more people hidden in other cells that we could interact with. Minutemen got encountered too early, should have just been the concord survivors who tell you that preston tried to hold the raiders off and you go get him at LExington. Institute should hve let you pick a division head to become the new leader and each one has a different main goal. Brotherhood was really the only one that felt fully fleshed out. But I would have liked a way to turn settlements into brotherhood outposts/railroad safehouses/institute integration centres.
New Vegas' main issue is the way the map funnels yu so much in the first 8-10 hours (unless you rush/skip the canyon trek to vegas). If you skip it, you just miss out on like 20% of the game. After 10+ replays, it loses fun for each new playthrough. Takes the longest to let me do whateve I want.
3's worst issue was combat and main quest ending.
2's biggest issue is that it feels more like a completely different game set in a different post apocalypse, instead of a sequel to 1. Even though it's my favourite game, I think it's the worst main series.
1's biggest issue isn't really fair, since it was tredding new ground in everything.

22:14 I totally agree with this, I only got into Fallout a couple days ago through seeing clips of the very first game, and It completely entranced me. It's visuals, story, and voice acting are all phenomenal. I always wondered why the rest of the series never interested me before. Guess I'm just a sucker for old pre-rendered games
I let my sister play New Vegas and she loved it, start off on the best fallout for a better experience
She chose a melee build and the yes man ending
Very different than me, too cool
Dead money as favorite DLC is truly cultured
But what is your favorite video game Billyman?
Halo 3
The yes man ending depends on what you do in new vegas, if you help people and create stability in parts of the wasteland, it’s not that bad
I’m watching the same dude who made the zerwee albums make a whole fallout ranking video while I’m washing dishes. That’s crazy bro
billy - this video deserves more views. (especially with how long this prolly took) Im glad fallout could get some more spotlight btw
8:22 honestly it’s better not having a set karma system, it makes the choices more complex rather than just being good/bad choices.
The vats system in 76 is genuinely so smooth
Cant believe you didnt mention Fallout 4's atmosphere, it was such a downgrade from fallout 3 and NV, It doesnt even feel like a post apocalyptic world and the interiors are boring. The entire world seems like it has no aesthetic or style its quite boring compared to fallout NV or 3 which had a distinct art style and aesthetic.
I been playing fallout four for the first time and I’m in love with it. It’s one of my favorite games of all time now. If you say it’s this bad I can’t wait to see what the rest of the series has to offer
I would keep your ranking but swap New Vegas with Fallout 2. Fallout 2 is raw and full of whores, drug addicts, people who barely keep their shit together and overall nasty place to live in but grander with more content than Fallout 1... I mean you can have forced gay marriage in this game then sell your spouse to slavers and use money from that transaction to either buy guns to kill those slaves AND your spouse (to free up slot for better party member lol) and get high on drugs you looted from salvers.... name one game when you can do this. Vegas is close but it missed on that nasty front. Even though Vegas wasteland is full of deadly mutants,, it is still too "nice" compared to old Fallouts.
I mean, there are certainly still whores, slaves, and drug addicts in NV. Don’t you remember finding the torture dungeon in the gamorrah where the guy would kidnap prostitutes and torture them to death?
@@BillyCobbOfficial I am not saying there weren't any such examples... just much less of them to paint shitty to live in post apocalyptic future imagined by original Fallouts.
Only 11k views? That's criminal, this video is great!
I would love to hear his opinion on Kingdome Come Deliverance but i dont know if he is into medieval stuff.
bro i LOVE ur music i didnt know u made content lmaoo. playing new vegas for the first time heavily modded and its a blast!
My ranking (not including 76 i didn't play it) before seeing yours
1 : Fallout New Vegas
2 : Fallout 1
3 : Fallout 4 (although it's very close to 2)
4 : Fallout 2
5 : Fallout 3
Interesting, what do you like a lot about F4?
I feel like the game is still interesting until the reveal with shaun because the main quest has this cool stuff with going into kellog's head, meeting valentine and helping the commonwealth. Sure the main character trauma is not exploited but his cluelessness about this new world is interesting some times
I also liked the double agent thing that the railroad has going on when you side with the institute at the same time Even if it falls flat in the end.
Also far harbor kinda saves the lackluster ending for me by giving more depth to the synths and atom's church.
Overall i find fallout 4 frustrating yes but its good elements like the followers the custom weapons and some quests really make the game cool in the end.
@@georgeswagg413 STUPID FUCKING DIMA MEMEORY FUCK DIMA
Why's Fallout 2 so low?
I liked fallout 2 and lot and i think it's almost tied with 4 for me, but the jokes and 90s references took me out of the game many many times.
Like, the lore with navarro, the enclave and the chi is cool but a lot of humor diminish the stakes compared to the first which was really grim.
Think about the hubologist who are a jab at scientology with the discount tom cruise, the comical mobsters in new reno and some dialogue of the chi people that is very stereotypical
I Also find the game really unforgiving especially in the beginning depending on your build.
For the companions some of them are nice but the scrapped content really hurt sulik (lorewise) and cassidy, byron and marcus are fine tho.
The way i died laughing when the guy shot shaun like 16 times it killed me man
Starting the list on the correct answer got me hooked. Ngl.
Hate to break it to yah but there are indeed scorpions in DC. They’re also the type that glow in the dark

4:) fallout 2
5.) Fallout 1
6.) Fallout 76

probably the most popular*
@georgetriantafyllidis6525 well alot of people would find it odd I put fallout 4 so close to new vegas given how drastic they are but fallout 4 scores high because of my personal experience(played it when I was rlly depressed) and it's graphics and gunplay are fun,power armor is also the best in that game for sure
BASED
I think the biggest thing against 76 is that its a live service meaning you have to put alot of time in it to really get anywhere and you miss out on alot if you start late or take a break you miss out on stuff. Its just not the type of game i personally enjoy or have the time for.
Seen your tweets about fallout so I knew something was cooking.
for me 4 has the world i enjoy exploring and making my own fun in but the story is basic, the factions ALL suck and as fun as nuka world is and i do love, having to destroy what you may have built seems dumb. fallout 3 i enjoy the least, i find the 360 era game clunky and 3 just feels like metro tunnel simulator. new vegas has the best factions but the world isnt engaging by nature of being set in a desert. when they remake 3 and new vegas i think that will be amazing. 76 i can only stomach if i pretend that the simulation theory is correct and all the daft stuff thrown at the players is to simulate how people would repsond. i think the world is great, theres a ton of diversity, but it quickly becomes the daily live service grind and someone in charge of the daily stuff clearly has a fetish for people eating dog food. my ranking would be
1- Fallout 4
2-New Vegas
3- 76
4- fallout 3
havent played the other and as much as ive seen a ton of play thrus im not going to pretend ive played them to rank
Ahhh, found this video after shitting on Fallout 4 for a solid hour at work today, to find a list that puts it dead last, love it
F:NV is the gold standard. Everything else is inferior and everyone knows it. The DLCs are diverse and varying degrees of "excellent." I seriously can't ever decide on which one is my favorite, but Roger Cross voicing "Ulysses" makes "Lonesome Road" a real treat. The mix of humor, drama, action and horror is spot-on. Oh, and the SOUNDTRACK. If the graphics and UI weren't so painful and outdated, I'd still play it regularly.
12:10 no: saves game and equips first weapon in my inventory
The online player base of fallout 76 is so generous, honestly a 1/1 in terms online experience
Bros got a degree in yapology holy fuck
22:36 There is the explanation of radscorpions coming from pet shops, breaking free after nuclear devastation and mutating over time.
Unexpected but not unwelcome
I recently beat Fallout 4 for the first time last year after getting it since its release and I was very disappointed with it (Still Am, Somewhat) but I’m not starting a new game. But it was more easy to get into years later when I’m looking at it from a perspective of what Bethesda want Fallout 4 to be instead of thinking what Obsidian want Fallout 4 to be, because playing Fallout 4 with Obsidian’s perspective in mind will piss you off.
thoughts on Fallout Equestria?
Just googled what that is, fucking hell.
It's weird, cringe, really psychotic and makes no sense. How the heck you shoot a gun with hooves???
Wtf is wrong with you
😬😬😬
You forgot that Fallout 2 also only got a year of development time!! Just goes to show how often game devs have to crunch
Do Fallout 1 and 2 play well on Steam Deck? I've actually never played the originals and have only played Bethesda's
yes, if you want to take the time to work out binding the buttons to keys and potentially modding it. it's mostly controlled with the mouse so the right touchpad will be used the most.
19:10 their ideals remain the same except here, there's an opponent to the FEV plan in a position of power, Autumn.
They weren't really amazing villains in either game. Iconic, memorable, sure but not amazingly written. Though you can totally criticise F3 for barely changing them. I just hope they come back as actually compelling differents instead of ANOTHER retread.
unpopular opinion: i fucking love fallout 76 and its my favorite fallout game...

Highly disagree with fallout 4
They should add back asking any question like being able to type out what you wanna know or specific keywords
My list would be super controversial lol but in order my faves are NV, 2, 1, 76, 3, tactics, 4, shelter if you can count it as a game.

Very good video. Even though I haven't played any fallout games or watched the show. I still understood every point you're talking about. Do you think one should mod the game or play it vanilla?
Man from pure nostalgia and core mems, I'd have to give Fallout 3 my number one spot, followed by New Vegas. Those games could use a fresh coat of paint sure, but they're both so great and so memorable. "hello wastelanders, this is Three Dog ahhwooooooo!" lol. Then NV for fantastic story and world. I went back and played 76 a couple years ago and it was pleasantly surprised when it was pretty fun. I'd give it another go in 2024. Then I actually haven't played 4 in the longest amount of time. Supposedly it's player count is up 500% from the show. Debating whether to come back to that or 76 after watching the show and feeling inspired to come back to the wasteland. I loveee 3 and NV, but they just haven't aged quite as well
Sometimes I forget you make non music content and think I just found the coolest new guy to watch.
