I remember when Fallout 2 came out and had such absolutely revolutionary UI improvements such as "Outlining enemies and friendlies with different fucking colours".
You starting your fallout journey with fallout 1 gives you infinite street cred in this community bro most of the Bethesda fallout fans haven't even played the first 2 games
@@kel_ski cant wait for you to play fallout 2 man its fallout 1 but more. The 3D fallout games are amazing too just a lil different those ones are how i got introduced and they inspired me to see the older ones too. I am a fallout 3 apologist thru and thru lol
That bomb part is so funny. I like to imagine it like Kelski’s character had his back to the desk, pulled a drawer out and dropped the bomb in it and closed it and walked out. Then sprints back in, tripping onto the desk, furiously ripping the drawer open, pulls the dynamite out and puts the lit one back in. (This is all happening in front of who he’s trying to assassinate)
How could he have known that the concept of toilets is so futuristic for British people that they made a whole sci-fi series about a guy travelling in one.
@@kel_ski also Tim Cain has mentioned that there was a bug that meant you could never beat the computer at chess even if you roll a critical success with max stats. dunno if that's been patched.
@@RaccooncolaFrom what I understand the bug is that it was a S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stat check instead of a skill check - you can only beat Zax with INT 10 and getting a crit. Theres just one problem. You can't GET a crit with a SPECIAL stat, its not coded that way.
Kelski when he only survives the final dungeon thanks to a bug...TWICE (Double Movement AP bug for the Military Base to skip Stealth Check and Avoiding Agroing EVERYONE after killing the Master by bugging his robot guard into killing him at the Cathedral Vault)
@@kel_ski You do have Stealth Options for both, but you were not specced for that at all, you need high perception and high stealth to get through the Military Base(plus the robe, the one part you did get) and even then generally you'll need both a stealth boy and luck because of how bad the odds are. You did that quick click trick exploiters use which gives you double AP per turn and disables the stealth check. As for the latter one, the pure stealth options for the base require you to either talk the master into offing himself(which requires a high IQ and Charisma, you did not have that) or 100% in both science and lockpicking to crack the secret elevator and arm the nuke undetected. Killing the Master in a fight is supposed to make everyone in the base fight you(though normally this isn't a problem as MOST PEOPLE who fight the Master also fought their way in and the rest of the base is dead so you can run out fine). I actually kinda want to see you replay it because you bugged both out and didn't do the stealth run or loud run properly. Although I will say you specced horrifically, low gun skill + low perception means you're never going to hit stuff and super mutants in armor are immune to melee hits without a crit. If not for the bugs you would have needed to go do all the quests you missed and probably some Hub jobs to level up a few times and upgrade your armor skill. For the record, Perception controls accuracy and range(times gun skill, low gun skill reduces it even further) and also your odds of detecting a trap. Strength and Endurance are the base for HP calculations. Strength also determines melee damage(A 10 strength character with a sledgehammer can do about 45 damage with a max role). Agility determines AP, every two Agility is one extra AP on top of the base 5. Generally you want it at 10 so you can shoot twice in one turn, almost all NPCs have it at max. Other set it as an even number, odd numbered Agility is useless and wastes a point. IQ is the second most important stat as it sets how many points you get at Level Up to put into skills. 5 is Base, 8 is double base, 10 is quadruple base. 4 is like half of base so major handicap. Charisma makes getting Ian and Katja to join easier and makes the prices lower at stores. Luck effects crit rate, gambling odds, and random event odds.
@kel_ski If you didn't do it, it is nearly impossible for him not to die to the force fields in the military base. It's actually canon that dogmeat dies in that way
20:44 the super mutants have lips like that because they need to wear leather straps that hold up their top lips. if they didn't, their oversized and mutated lip would block them from breathing/speaking. its also an intimidation thing to show the mutant's huge teeth.

Holy crap your editing skills have improved so much, I didn't know it was possible to improve on perfection. As always, it was very much worth the wait! The effort you put in really shows. Really loved this mini series, even though I never played any of the fallout games lol
Kelski: "I never, ever, get soft locked in games" Me: so you're going to load a previous save? Kelski: "Cheats. I had to spawn myself medicine" Me: *Surprised Pikachu*
Did you know in the brotherhood of steel you could get a holotape that says that the super mutants can’t replicate with it you can’t talk the master to stop
Usually the ending I head for - getting the massive hivemind that can solve any philosophical question to realise that it is doomed and only exposing people to suffering, and for it to take its own life? Good shit.
The Master's backstory is _soooo goood_ too. Hey, remember Harold? _That military base was where he got mutated._ Remember his companion, Dr Grey? _Well..._ But despite his absolutely horrendous methods, he honestly believed he was doing humanity a solid - if we _all_ become super-mutants, the wasteland _can go suck it_ (and he truly believed he could work the "kinks" out otherwise). The report that they're all _sterile_ devastates him enough that he self-terminates after the realisation that he's done _all that_ for, well... _nothing._ ALSO, in a very real way, Fallout's world story - the backstory of literally every game - is a story about FEV, the Forced Evolutionary Virus. Vault-Tec _possibly started the Great War_ from the shadows for it, even...
Decker is pretty cool. The first guy he has you kill is corrupt and working with the League of Thieves(who you missed the quests for) and the second girl is working with The Master. (Also did you never find the final companion, Katja? She's with the Children of the Cathedral out front asking to join)
@@kel_ski Katja is the goth rebel chick, her specialty is melee weapons(give her a hammer) and she's also got above average armor and stealth. Also she has a special lock picking ability you can use in a couple places.(She can get you into the military base if you, say, vaporized the mutant guard with the code on him and thus destroyed all his items, perhaps. Also the vault of good the Loanshark in The Hub has and Doc Morbid's locker) Katja is weird in that she's got the stats for shooting(low strength, high perception), but her skills are specced into Melee and Unarmed combat for some reason. Kinda like you actually, Kelski/Katja would have been a heck of a pairing. Someone did the math for the companions. Tycho's best weapon is the Red Ryder BB Gun LE (Which only spawns in that Bob's Used Car Mart random event) or otherwise either the AK with burst mode(very risky) or sniper(safe). Ian's best weapon is a SMG on burst fire mode, but if that's too risky for you then the .44 pistol. And Katja's best weapon is also the SMG on burst fire(risky as always, but moreso to your other companions then you, if you've got power armor no problem same with all of these), if not either the .44 pistol or power fist(better skill in the latter means way more consistent hits, former does more damage, can't remember which averages higher).
@@kel_ski Oh and fun fact, alongside the main 4(Ian, Katja, Dogmeat, and super secret hard to get Tycho..seriously how do you find Tycho who requires you to be at a specific spot at a specific time and have completed the Killian-Gizmo quest in a specific way, but miss Katja out front of a mandatory location asking to join), Tandi was supposed to be a companion, but was cut last minute to prevent a plothole with the NCR ending. The code for it still almost all exists, as it was reused for the rescue mission where she follows you out and fights with you if she has to. So if you rescue Tandi from the Khans and then never go back to Shady Sands, she's a companion. Only part of the code that's removed is orders(she can't change weapons or formation), BUT if you remove her knife prior to her pulling it(steal it off her at the village before being kidnapped or before getting her out of her cell) she can use any weapon Ian can, though she's specced a bit more for melee than him. Steal her knfie and plant a pistol or SMG on her and she's a companion proper. (You can also hope she drops her knife by random chance I guess)
@@kel_ski Finally(third reply to you, sorry a lot to say), yeah Decker is probably the most morally grey character in the game. On the one hand, yeah he's power hungry, yeah he's shady and working with unsavory people, and yes he'll kill innocent people who get in his way(You if you betray him, the Merchants wife, the flower kid at the church). On the other hand, the two targets are both objectively bad for The Hub(One's crooked and working with theives and one's a plant softening up the city for invasion), he's right that the current government is useless(the Sheriff), he's one of the only people who doesn't trust the Children of the Cathedral and suspects they have something to do with the Caravans(and he's right), and he thinks the merchants are corrupt and undermining The Hub and leading it to ruin(Which Fallout 2 confirms was correct, The Hub fell badly behind and ended up being taken over by Shady Sands NCR despite The Hub's massive lead and controlling the water and currency). You have zero reason to kill him. The Hub's good ending is impossible to get (It requires you to turn in Iguana Bob which is bugged and doesn't work, and it requires a Harold quest to protect other mutants which is completely cut) so Decker is in the right here.
I bought this game this week because I love the TV series. This is my first exposure to Fallout games. I was frustrated with the UI and controls and decided not to play the game for a day. Got back to it and finished yesterday. A classic video game masterpiece that modern ones should look up to and emulate.
Kelswol: gets a hit by a gun while the chances are -17% Also kelswol: literally misses a 100% melee attack Also kelswol: dies cuz of a rat while wearing a power armor
Kelski, I think you really outdid yourself this time. It has been months since I found a RUclips video this entertaining. I’m not saying the videos you released in the last several months were not entertaining, I’m saying that this video raised the bar. I was really excited for this video and it definitely did not disappoint.
Great video mate. Fyi there are actually 3 methods to defeat the master. 1) your method - straight out killing him 2) secretly arming the nuke in the basement and running away 3) convincing The Master by finding the evidence that all super mutants are sterile and cannot reproduce. Then he accepts the fact all of his work was in vain and kills himself. Fallout indeed is remarkably advanced game for its time.
Thank god you ran in the end, because I first played this around the time the show came out. And I ended up getting stuck in a spot where I was feet away and didn’t have time to get to safety. My last save was a good while prior, and having to go back hurt my soul
@@kel_ski You sure it wasn't the radiation? Cause you playing chess with the computer also passes time, which will make Rad-X wear off eventually. And when you hit 1000 rads, you die in a day unless you make it go lower.
@@arshiaaghaei yup! Chat and I even double checked with the Geiger Counter. The problem was solved once I took more mentats, not more Rad medicine lol Trust me, we tried everything, including taking the Rad medicine right before leavinf
@@kel_ski lol that sucks. I'd also suggest giving Et Tu a try. It ports FO1 into the FO2 engine and makes your companions competent, alongside a ton of other FO2 QOL features.
it's funny how 'good guy bad guy' junktown looks but there's some great nuance. Junktown under Killian can be seen as orderly but also stifled, with travellers and merchants keeping away due to his frontier justice. Gizmo however, looks like the typical bad guy - but he can turn it into a profitable, relatively safe trading hub. These were actually the original outcomes, depending on who was left alive, before they got swapped with 'Killian Good, Gizmo Greedy and bad'
Yeah iirc Interplay didn’t want to “punish” the players for their decisions so they requested it be changed. There’s a reference to the original concept in the game but it requires you to talk to Gizmo first and accept the assassination job. You ask him why you want him dead and he says “Junktown ain’t what it used to be”, but if you ask him the same question after talking to Killian, he just says it’s bc “he cramps MY business”. Certainly the latter line I think was a mistake
I started with the originals, but my husband's first Fallout was 3. He saw me playing NV in third person one day and asked how I can see any items against the outdated textures and graphics. I told him to download the originals. After about two hours, he rage quit Fallout 1. Eventually he played through Tactics, and 2-- with some patches-- but he refuses to go back to 1, which is a bit disappointing but also kind of hilarious.
I recently played fallout 1 too and all I have to say is. >you target raider's eyes for 95% accuracy >you missed >you were critically hit hit for 93 damage, bypassing your armor Pain
I just discovered your channel through the two Fallout 1 videos you made. It was very interesting to see someone's perspective that's from a different generation. F1 was one of the first video games I played and the first cRPG, sparking a great love for the genre throughout my teens. I really respect and appreciate you going back to Fallout 1 to start getting to know the series and taking it for what it is. Your videos are wild to this old fart but you had me chuckling on several occasions and you also managed to really capture the funny, tragic, dramatic and over-the-top moments that the game's systems create. Really top video, subbed!
Glad to wee you finish Fallout 1 for the same reason I did - just wanted to pay respects to where it all started. Excited to see you continue the series! Im finishing New Vegas for the first time myself.
Injecting your companions with a heavy dose of dru-- I mean, battle stimulants is a good way of keeping them alive in vanilla FO1. Somehow I managed to keep the entire party together on my first play years ago without mods.
I've been playing Fallout since it first released long ago in the 20th century. It's so heartening and uplifting to hear you encountering, and enjoying, the game for the first time. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences.
@@kel_ski perfect timing, absolutely 👍🏻 And I enjoyed it immensely and I can't wait for more content, either on Fallout 1, or some of the other games, heck I'd probably watch you play Microsoft Pinball. Can't wait to see your channel grow!
19:19 in fallout 2 there is a bridge keeper if you kill him you can loot his robe which has the same stats as combat armor but weight half as much so a pretty decent armor
I recently found out that I had gotten the first 2 Fallout games, FO Tactics, and New Vegas on Epic for free a while ago. I just finished FO1 and found this. Glad to know other people are just now experiencing the first game!
I really feel like after you do 2(or Tactics I guess) you should give this one more playthrough. Except this time you read the manual and also have a prior playthrough for context. It’s easily the shortest game in the series and you both specced horribly at the start and then mismanaged it. And you broke the ending area and avoided a fight you shouldn’t have. You could do the dozens of quests and jobs you missed and then do all the ones you did do in alternate ways. Be loud where you were quiet, quiet where you were loud. There’s always more than one way.
You didn’t die from having your stats hitting zero, you died from radiation sickness. The rad-x you took obliviously has a time limit on it but anything that makes your screen fade to black causes time to pass.
this is absolutely one of my fav games ever. good atmosphere, great character writing, unique combat, and just overall a lot explore. the ending is prob one lf my favorite endings too, it's just the perfect tragic ending because the overseer has a point; the vault ends up rebelling against the overseer anyway and follows the vault dweller into the wastes because he's become a hero, an idol, but more of that in the second game which is an amazing sequel
the first video made me a fan of your channel and I binged a lot of ur videos. I never even played any Fallout game and I still enjoyed these. Much love
if you have the bloody mess perk you kill the overseer. i think it also happens if you have low enough karma, and the wiki agrees. supposedly you can manually do it too.
Thanks for the video, keep up the good work! You manage to make these videos entertaining in a way that I rarely see, with well placed edits and clear explanations of what is going on.

And Katja's best weapon is also the SMG on burst fire(risky as always, but moreso to your other companions then you, if you've got power armor no problem same with all of these), if not either the .44 pistol or power fist(better skill in the latter means way more consistent hits, former does more damage, can't remember which averages higher).
@@kel_ski Oh and fun fact, alongside the main 4(Ian, Katja, Dogmeat, and super secret hard to get Tycho..seriously how do you find Tycho who requires you to be at a specific spot at a specific time and have completed the Killian-Gizmo quest in a specific way, but miss Katja out front of a mandatory location asking to join), Tandi was supposed to be a companion, but was cut last minute to prevent a plothole with the NCR ending.
The code for it still almost all exists, as it was reused for the rescue mission where she follows you out and fights with you if she has to. So if you rescue Tandi from the Khans and then never go back to Shady Sands, she's a companion. Only part of the code that's removed is orders(she can't change weapons or formation), BUT if you remove her knife prior to her pulling it(steal it off her at the village before being kidnapped or before getting her out of her cell) she can use any weapon Ian can, though she's specced a bit more for melee than him. Steal her knfie and plant a pistol or SMG on her and she's a companion proper. (You can also hope she drops her knife by random chance I guess)
@@kel_ski Finally(third reply to you, sorry a lot to say), yeah Decker is probably the most morally grey character in the game.
On the one hand, yeah he's power hungry, yeah he's shady and working with unsavory people, and yes he'll kill innocent people who get in his way(You if you betray him, the Merchants wife, the flower kid at the church). On the other hand, the two targets are both objectively bad for The Hub(One's crooked and working with theives and one's a plant softening up the city for invasion), he's right that the current government is useless(the Sheriff), he's one of the only people who doesn't trust the Children of the Cathedral and suspects they have something to do with the Caravans(and he's right), and he thinks the merchants are corrupt and undermining The Hub and leading it to ruin(Which Fallout 2 confirms was correct, The Hub fell badly behind and ended up being taken over by Shady Sands NCR despite The Hub's massive lead and controlling the water and currency).
You have zero reason to kill him. The Hub's good ending is impossible to get (It requires you to turn in Iguana Bob which is bugged and doesn't work, and it requires a Harold quest to protect other mutants which is completely cut) so Decker is in the right here.

Kelski vs rats who will win
Rats no diff
Will be keeping a close eye on the replies to this one 👁️👁️
Rats
Rats there the meta
Kel swole could no prep time.
14:14 - 15:14 is actually really funny
This bit had me laughing for some good time, i had to replay it
I bought this game this week because I love the TV series. This is my first exposure to Fallout games. I was frustrated with the UI and controls and decided not to play the game for a day. Got back to it and finished yesterday. A classic video game masterpiece that modern ones should look up to and emulate.
Kelswol: gets a hit by a gun while the chances are -17%
Also kelswol: literally misses a 100% melee attack
Also kelswol: dies cuz of a rat while wearing a power armor

Kelski, I think you really outdid yourself this time. It has been months since I found a RUclips video this entertaining. I’m not saying the videos you released in the last several months were not entertaining, I’m saying that this video raised the bar. I was really excited for this video and it definitely did not disappoint.
Thank you Hoovy :^) so glad people like this one so much. I’m super proud of the end product. I’m glad you enjoyed it man 🫡
Great video mate.
Fyi there are actually 3 methods to defeat the master.
1) your method - straight out killing him
2) secretly arming the nuke in the basement and running away
3) convincing The Master by finding the evidence that all super mutants are sterile and cannot reproduce. Then he accepts the fact all of his work was in vain and kills himself.
Fallout indeed is remarkably advanced game for its time.
Thank god you ran in the end, because I first played this around the time the show came out. And I ended up getting stuck in a spot where I was feet away and didn’t have time to get to safety. My last save was a good while prior, and having to go back hurt my soul
Aren't there a ton of chems in the lockers at The Glow specifically to avoid issues?
Pretty sure there's like 2 rad x in lvl 4.
There was! Butttt, my character was also dying because I took like… 3-4 mentats all at once, so my Intelligence kept hitting zero 💀
@@kel_ski You sure it wasn't the radiation? Cause you playing chess with the computer also passes time, which will make Rad-X wear off eventually. And when you hit 1000 rads, you die in a day unless you make it go lower.
@@arshiaaghaei yup! Chat and I even double checked with the Geiger Counter. The problem was solved once I took more mentats, not more Rad medicine lol
Trust me, we tried everything, including taking the Rad medicine right before leavinf
@@kel_ski lol that sucks.
I'd also suggest giving Et Tu a try. It ports FO1 into the FO2 engine and makes your companions competent, alongside a ton of other FO2 QOL features.
it's funny how 'good guy bad guy' junktown looks but there's some great nuance. Junktown under Killian can be seen as orderly but also stifled, with travellers and merchants keeping away due to his frontier justice. Gizmo however, looks like the typical bad guy - but he can turn it into a profitable, relatively safe trading hub. These were actually the original outcomes, depending on who was left alive, before they got swapped with 'Killian Good, Gizmo Greedy and bad'
Yeah iirc Interplay didn’t want to “punish” the players for their decisions so they requested it be changed. There’s a reference to the original concept in the game but it requires you to talk to Gizmo first and accept the assassination job. You ask him why you want him dead and he says “Junktown ain’t what it used to be”, but if you ask him the same question after talking to Killian, he just says it’s bc “he cramps MY business”. Certainly the latter line I think was a mistake
I am very new to your channel and content, the way you opened this video is really my kind of humor.
I started with the originals, but my husband's first Fallout was 3. He saw me playing NV in third person one day and asked how I can see any items against the outdated textures and graphics. I told him to download the originals. After about two hours, he rage quit Fallout 1. Eventually he played through Tactics, and 2-- with some patches-- but he refuses to go back to 1, which is a bit disappointing but also kind of hilarious.
I recently played fallout 1 too and all I have to say is.
>you target raider's eyes for 95% accuracy
>you missed
>you were critically hit hit for 93 damage, bypassing your armor
Pain
14:35 - the most funniest part of the video!😂😂😂
Banger video, cant wait for the Fallout 2 video!
The editing and the memes are so fcking god tier. Never stop cooking like this kelski
Inside the used car salesman shed is the Red Ryder LE BB Gun. Use vats and aim for the eyes of a deathclaw.
Just came back from fishing i didnt catch any fish but 45 mins of kelski content is just enough
Fishing is can just about the experience sometimes
@@kel_ski thats very wise kelman
The editing in this video is crazy 😂
1:49 *Bro couldn't handle the Code Kelski G-Fuel* 💀💀💀
dude i am crying over the f ing decker introduction, sooooo gooooood
I just discovered your channel through the two Fallout 1 videos you made. It was very interesting to see someone's perspective that's from a different generation. F1 was one of the first video games I played and the first cRPG, sparking a great love for the genre throughout my teens. I really respect and appreciate you going back to Fallout 1 to start getting to know the series and taking it for what it is.
Your videos are wild to this old fart but you had me chuckling on several occasions and you also managed to really capture the funny, tragic, dramatic and over-the-top moments that the game's systems create. Really top video, subbed!
Glad to wee you finish Fallout 1 for the same reason I did - just wanted to pay respects to where it all started. Excited to see you continue the series! Im finishing New Vegas for the first time myself.
Since you enjoyed all the dialogue options: give Star Wars KOTOR a shot. It's ridiculously good
Injecting your companions with a heavy dose of dru-- I mean, battle stimulants is a good way of keeping them alive in vanilla FO1. Somehow I managed to keep the entire party together on my first play years ago without mods.
This was such a fun video. Tycho's sacrifice was so worth it 🙏🏼 I loved the coked up wizard playthrough
Thanks for watching! I’m pretty sure I’ve seen you in the live streams too so thanks for all the support 🙏
I've been playing Fallout since it first released long ago in the 20th century. It's so heartening and uplifting to hear you encountering, and enjoying, the game for the first time. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences.
Thanks for a very entertaining trip down memory lane circa 2002 for me.
We should also call out the music from Mark Morgan and how good it is.
Dude I was literally just sitting here hoping for this very upload! Thanks brother, your content is fucking mint.
Great timing I guess haha, thanks for the nice comment brotha 🤝 hope it was enjoyable!
@@kel_ski perfect timing, absolutely 👍🏻 And I enjoyed it immensely and I can't wait for more content, either on Fallout 1, or some of the other games, heck I'd probably watch you play Microsoft Pinball.
Can't wait to see your channel grow!
19:19 in fallout 2 there is a bridge keeper if you kill him you can loot his robe which has the same stats as combat armor but weight half as much so a pretty decent armor
I recently found out that I had gotten the first 2 Fallout games, FO Tactics, and New Vegas on Epic for free a while ago. I just finished FO1 and found this. Glad to know other people are just now experiencing the first game!
The intro was gold 👌🏿
I really feel like after you do 2(or Tactics I guess) you should give this one more playthrough. Except this time you read the manual and also have a prior playthrough for context. It’s easily the shortest game in the series and you both specced horribly at the start and then mismanaged it. And you broke the ending area and avoided a fight you shouldn’t have. You could do the dozens of quests and jobs you missed and then do all the ones you did do in alternate ways. Be loud where you were quiet, quiet where you were loud. There’s always more than one way.
After looking first part i think your just easy dude who will throw up next playtrough. But you really did it. Real OG. Much respect
You didn’t die from having your stats hitting zero, you died from radiation sickness. The rad-x you took obliviously has a time limit on it but anything that makes your screen fade to black causes time to pass.
Our glorious father gifts us with yet another upload
🙏
Just the Intro was so good and fitting that it convinced me to watch the whole video
What a game, you made it super entertaining with how it went. Loved the funny companion twists, cant wait for more vids!
1 minute in and I can tell kelski COOKED
Lemme know I still cooked after the end 🫡
@@kel_skiAbsolute cinema
Babe wake up new Kelsi video just dropped
I ain't fixing that mistake
0:27 aint no way he killin that rat
Beautiful intro
that's all I gotta say really
this is absolutely one of my fav games ever. good atmosphere, great character writing, unique combat, and just overall a lot explore. the ending is prob one lf my favorite endings too, it's just the perfect tragic ending because the overseer has a point; the vault ends up rebelling against the overseer anyway and follows the vault dweller into the wastes because he's become a hero, an idol, but more of that in the second game which is an amazing sequel
32:30 your shure it wasnt the radiation from playing chess for 100 so hours in an radiated crate?
the cuts between each topic got me bustin' a move, love your vids
this makes me so mad that this has only 93k views it deserves just as much as the first fallout game
"You missed." good video bro thanks Kelski, very cool 😌👌🏻
First fallout is a masterpiece
the first video made me a fan of your channel and I binged a lot of ur videos. I never even played any Fallout game and I still enjoyed these. Much love
Play the Fallout 1 Scrapheap Demo
The little jab at Fallout was great Todd let obsidian cook. And hope we get 3rd and 1st person opinions
12:36 hearing a mutant with that voice fucking killed me
this is gold. LOVE YOUR VIDEO *subscribed*
Wooo new kelski video lets goo
Loving the fallout content man, my favorite stuff is always the hard cut to death screen its sooo good
if you have the bloody mess perk you kill the overseer. i think it also happens if you have low enough karma, and the wiki agrees. supposedly you can manually do it too.
Dude... the editing just gets better and better each month, its crazy
Oh my god I was crying at the clip of Ian killing Tycho. This is such a fucking good video
bruhhhh......the story telling is so funny, i glad i found your channel 😂😂😂
This dude is quickly becoming one of my favorite creators on RUclips, his edits/videos fucking kill me every time
YES!!! More Fallout 1 videos from you! Best night ever
I cant wait for the Fallout 2 video now
More Kelski content! With godlike editing! Very nice
Going back to and completing the OG Fallout games? Another Kelski W.
Those cutscenes are so good for their time
The master is legit one of the best villains in fallout
Thanks for the video, keep up the good work! You manage to make these videos entertaining in a way that I rarely see, with well placed edits and clear explanations of what is going on.
Love you Kelski, its always fun to watch you playing games. And your Video are great and entertaining.
finaly its time for kelski to shine bright again after 18 years of fallout 1 streams
You actually did great and have done this classic justice buddy. Proud of you.
Thank you thank you 🤝👑
You did it man, Fallout is such great game, and you're about to witness greatness of Fallout 2, damn, can't wait for it!!!
That first edit deserves a grammy
Banger of a video Kelski

27:49 The hell is the TARDIS doing in this game? That one caught me off guard lmao.
The live TNT part made me rofl so bad 14:15
