Welcome to my in-depth review of Fallout 3, the iconic post-apocalyptic RPG that captured the hearts of gamers worldwide.
With the Fallout series TV show hitting streaming services soon I thought it would be a great idea to venture back to the wasteland and see if Fallout 3 was really that good!
In this video, we dive into the world of Vault 101, the Capital Wasteland, and beyond, evaluating every aspect of this Bethesda classic.
Does it live up to the amazing Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 4?

Should I look at Fallout: New Vegas next??? 🤔
yes!
I mean, we all know that it‘s really that good
Do that please
Do em all, or, the notable ones I suppose, also, enjoy your content!!!!
Is that even a question? Lol I am in the house of new vegas is better than fo3 but new vegas couldn't exist without f03. Also fo3 is bot a bad game because NV is better it is still a phenomenal game but with NV taking everything great Bethesda did for the series NV was much closer to original lore of the ip which as a lore nerd makes me biased to NV. But the best version is on pc with the tale of two wastelands mod which combines both games as one in a sense with the ability for same character across both travel between both in same playthrough plus more
I’ll defend fallout 3 to the end
It has faults but I think it's my favourite one 💪🏻👔
Same fo3 was my first and favorite fallout
Fallout 4 the best & idc what anyone says.. just agree & don't argue 😎
I’ll defend it at the beginning
@504Trey will argue lol second worse fallout it's only good with mods the guns alone make it bad
My favorite side mission is the one where you go in the vault full of clones of a guy named gary 😂
"GARY"
Oh no, gary!
Fallout 1&2 aren't just combat games, they're the most in-depth RPGs in the series so if you like that aspect of fallout then you'd probably like them. Would love to see you cover them in some videos one day
Never touched them tbh even though I have them on steam.. maybe a video looking back at them would be fun 🤔
@@Guyinthetie Just don't blind play them. Be sure to read the manuals, or catch up on some useful videos that will guide you on how to begin, like the ones put out by Caedo Genesis and Games Twice-Over. The Nearly Ultimate Fallout Guide is also excellent.
@@Guyinthetie Yeah if you like the roleplaying, making story-affecting choices and building a unique character with their own flavor based on what you choose, the original FO games are some of the best out there (though they do admittedly run into the old-ass CRPG issue of having way too many downright awful dump skills to trick you into taking at character creation). My biggest complaint today with FO3 isn't even the litany of worldbuilding or writing consistency issues that it has, it's that it took a heavy RPG series and made it arguably not one at all (I always refer to FO3 as an open world looter shooter with RPG elements as opposed to any kind of RPG, and it's arguably one of the first big games to shift what people's idea of the RPG genre is to its modern version, i.e. making it more about the mechanical leveling aspects and looting than the heavy narrative focus the genre had back in the 90s and early aughts).
@@Guyinthetie Compared to the first two, Fallout 3 is like some shallow, Fallout-themed amusement park - a childish mimicry of surface-level aesthetics with no understanding beyond that. I freely admit that it was very entertaining to play, but as a Fallout game it's as though someone just re-skinned a generic fps with stuff that "looks" like Fallout.
Anyway, I realize there's a generational gap that heavily affects one's perception. If, like me, you grew up playing the first two games years before 3 even existed, then FO3 is "that weird new one made by a different studio" and a huge departure from what your impression of "a Fallout game" is. Meanwhile, if you made the mistake of being born later and started with FO3 when it was contemporary, _that's_ your first impression; your "OG" Fallout and baseline concept of what "a Fallout game" is. It's like someone who's entire understanding of the Star Wars universe is informed by the prequels, because they never watched the original trilogy and it never even occurred to them to do so.
@@heinrichagrippa5681 Nah man, my first Fallout game was Fallout 3, but I can definitely see how it is shallow in comparison to the first two games and NV. Just because someone is born later and experienced Fo3 first, doesn't mean they cant see how it feels bare bones in comparison. The only thing it does is create a feeling of nostalgia that enhances the quality of the experience. Bethesda Fallout games have gotten progressively worse since 3. At least Bethesda was still faithful to the RPG systems of the original games, the special, skills and perk system. Even if a perk at every level is a bit too much, it's still better than the boring perk tree we got in the Fourth game.
Take it easy on Detroit, we were living in Mad Max times.
Haha I made potshots at my own turf to balance out 💪🏻👔
"'Im sorry, you're a hero but you have to leave" is a quote from the overseer in Fallout 1. They probably have her kick you out for the sake of that reference, considering you have no gameplay incentive to go back to 101 anyway
Keep posting dawg, you will absolutely see big success in the near future format is great ❤
Damn wasn't expecting such a wholesome comment thank you so much!! Hopefully people keep enjoying my content 💪🏻👔
26:23 the first time I played this game I thought that being kidnapped by the enclave was such a plot twist it really surprised me.
Fallout 3 was the best oblivion mod until new vegas
Haha this is the perfect way to describe fallout 3 and though I love new Vegas it does feel like a mod of a mod 🤣
"Better him than me" when you killed officer dude in 101 😂
Now that I think about it, the Fallout 3 Karma system makes a little more sense than we're led to believe. Thanks to 3-Dog reporting on events and literally giving us our Karma titles at each level. "Karma" is actually more of a proto-reputation system. And it makes sense it really only affects how cooperative certain groups are in the wasteland. That and like 2 perks but that's just a bonus. It just needed some tweaking to which actions actually affect Karma and to what extent.
Ok so I just got through my first playthrough of fallout 3. I loved everything about this game, the main missions were where I had the most fun tbh. At first I didn't have anything else to play, so I was like screw it I'll finally give fallout a try. I was never able to finish fallout four, I always got too bored. HOWEVER. fallout three kept me interested throughout everything. The moment I realized hey I might like this game, was when I was going to the gnr news building, or wherever three dogs was, and A GIANT MUTANT CRASHES OUT OF NOWHERE. Ever since that point I was hooked. Seeing a giant robot throw a nuke like a football was a huge trip for me, couldn't stop laughing, I mean I could go all day talking about this game. The only boring part I remember was saving up caps to help those trapped kids. And yea I chose to walk with the dad and that was a mistake. Dude wanted to fight everything. But that's all my complaints about the game. The movement is ofc clunky but I rlly think its just bc it's an old game. But it's so in depth WITH SO MANY THINGS. Everyone tried to tell me fallout three was the worst, but tbh I think fallout 4 is. I can't even get through that game, maybe make it to diamond city then dip. Mods are fun though.
Yes! New Vegas fans will always hate it, but NV couldn’t exist without 3. And honestly 3 was a blast, I always enjoy replaying it. The wasteland is just so fun to explore, and the random events really help that
Love the random events and can't wait to give fallout NV another shot after all these years!! 💪🏻👔
Disagree *strongly* In a world where the New Vegas IP didn't get scooped up by Bethesda, there is a real chance it could have been bought by Obsidian (they were also interested in buying it when it went for sale but didn't have Bethesda's money). In which case we could have gotten actual Fallout Fan Buren, aka New Vegas but not in a dogshite engine. The FO3 and Creation engines haven't even been that important for the creation of new original content in the game worlds; when you're talking about fangames or original games made with the engine, there's about as many FO2/Tactics engine projects as there are Gamebryo/Creation ones for the Fallout series.
FO3's existence as a fun wacky wasteland romp perfectly justifies itself in a vacuum IMO, but Bethesda will have always killed what the actual FO series is and that will always suck. I'd say "why didn't they just make their own original post-apocalyptic IP, given how few people who got introduced with FO3 actually played the originals it probably wouldn't have hurt the success" but now we've seen how bad Bethesda is if they try and make a new IP these days with Starfield.
The fervent NV fans hate everything that isn’t NV. The game is great but I love other titles in the series as well. They can’t even be happy about a brand new amazingly written Fallout show that has made many fans revisit the games.
@@benbarada2882 3 is fine and I don't hate it but it could've been better by a mile. Then NV came out and fixed a lot of the issues with 3. Cut to FO4 and they walked back like 90% of what made both games good. 3 is an RPG with shooter elements.
New Vegas is a heavier RPG with shooter mechanics.
4 is a shooter with some RPG mechanics. New Vegas isn't without its flaws but obsidian made it in 18 months. Why then is NV just better in a lot of ways? It's not hate it's valid criticism that's just written off as hate.
New vegas fan here. Fallout 3 is quite good. My biggest complaint is the incredibly black and white factions.
Also PSA - Tale of Two Wastelands exists if you are on PC. PC only, but it converts Fallout 3 and its DLCs into a mod for Fallout New Vegas. It runs on NV's engine and plays like NV, but you get to play through Fallout 3 with the new systems like weapons mods and companion stuff. The mods for it are amazing.
Heard alot the tale of two mod so definitely need to stream a play through or something of that
@@Guyinthetie
I recommend it mostly for the fixes that were made for NV.
Stuff like heap relaxer, diagonal movement, animation mods, tick fix, iStewieTweaks and the such.
Is it the full game? All fo3 side quests weapons and areas?
@@itzangel619 It's both games plus all DLC content, plus whatever other mods you run that are compatible. I'm running an extremely bloated modlist with about 410 mods (TTW included) and it still works.
What people don't seem to realise is, the engine ALWAYS throws the dice, even without VATS.
Every action is an expression of the throw of the dice in most RPGs even if they are real time unless the damage is fixed and the outcome is baked in. This is because when they made the first RPGs they modeled them after tabletop ones, which involved a dice throw with every move.
the pile of milk jugs outside of your dads vr lounger was well done, very funny
Liam Neeson is an honest man, he really did go out to get milk 💪🏻👔
I never did play Fallout 1 and 2 on pc, even though I had just started college when those came out. I was playing other stuff like Half-Life and whatever else was popular at the time. I still think I like New Vegas best. I've had so many hours and so much fun with that game over the years. I have all three of these on Steam and I have sunk a bunch of hours into Fallout 3. I have not sunk a bunch of hours into Fallout 4 because it always ran like crap. I haven't tried it on my newer ryzen 7 with 3070 TI system.
Fallout 3 is really fun! I played this on Xbox 360 the first time. About 15 years ago. Regarding Liam Neeson. His star status had faded by around 2007. Remember, it was the Taken movie series that vaulted him into more popularity than he ever has, and all the movies of the last 15 years. So getting him to voice this was probably not as hard as you think. Thanks for the video!
My favorite side quest is the nuka quantum quest. I like roaming around trying to find them and the quest always takes me to a location ive never been before cuz i wonder if theres nuka cola quantums there
I always get excited thinking it's a qauntum then find out it's just an empty nuka 😭
People always hate on mothership zeta....I don't get it, it's probably my favourite dlc in the game, it's a great contrast the the wasteland, and exploring parts of the ship can be wacky, and finding out more about what the aliens are doing with humanity in the lore. It's the best dlc in terms of loot since the alien weapons are some of the best in the game, even in terms of valve. I see why people dislije the dlc, but I find it pretty fun just for the novelty of aliens and being on a spaceship, exploring can lead to some cool references and loot to find too, or how all the characters literally have nothing left, their friends/family being nothing but mere experiments for the zatans.
like Sally's sister for example, you can find a chilling audio log that eludes to the zatans turning her into an Abomination (those half human zatan things) or Elliot, a US army medic who's squad was also abducted, later in the cryo lab section you can find them already dead and gruesomely being experimented on, some even frozen in pods with god knows what stuck inside them, giving you a choice what to do with them.
The world building in the dlc, the setting is really cool... but if you don't care about any of that, than I get why people don't like it, because you kinda have to go out of your way to find all the wacky shit. 😅
It's probably my fault doing these back to back after the main game, I was just burnt out and the game bugs and the game dropping frames for no reason was just the last straw.. plus the DLC feels like it overstays it's welcome a little
keep making these i need them
As long as I get amazing comments like this I will 💪🏻👔
Recently replayed Fallout 3 via the Tale of Two Wastelands mod, the newer mechanics from New Vegas didn't save it. I think the main problem with Fallout 3 is the lack depth in it's quests, most of the quests were very localised. the only real exception to this was the wasteland survival guide, which had you going all over the place. A lot of locations you find are just bare bones dungeons with maybe a skill book. Which is a shame because I like the east coast setting.
The Birmingham joke killed me, keep up the great work, you Gitt!
Never heard of this Tale of Two mod??
Is it just the two games smashed together in one package?
ports Fallout 3 into New Vegas, you start in vault 101 and then later take a train that starts New Vegas. The mod kinda breaks the balance of Fallout 3 in places, like super mutants are too tanky, but it still plays the same.
New Vegas’ improvements definitely help Fallout 3 but you’re right that they don’t save it. I like TTW as endgame content to stomp through after I’ve finished NV and all it’s DLC.
If the best way to criticize something is to provide a better example, then Fallout New Vegas is the best criticism of Fallout 3 that could have possibly been made.
@@NavinToastMan the amount of tech I gave to the outcasts for AP rounds due to super mutants is crazy, though it did add to the experience in a way
Great video I remember finding the slaver village and somehow killing all the slavers you get to steal the leader’s sweet outfit and you get good karma for it and the slaves were really grateful.
The red suit is pretty fire ngl 🔥 really plays off the burning bodies of my enemies 😈
I hope you had a good poop 🤣
My first experience with Fallout was Fallout 3. I remember my friend showing it to me, I'd never heard of the game before so I had no idea what to expect. When I played it the first time it was one of his saved games so I just started in an underground subway somewhere in the dark, ran for like 2 minutes, shot a wall and then a bunch of ghouls popped out of nowhere and scared the hell out of me and I turned it off lol.
But something about it wouldn't leave me mind, so a month later that same friend actually sold me his copy and this time I started my own game and fucking never looked back man. Fell in love with it. Played it over and over. It will always be a classic to me.
I remember my first play through and the ghouls hitting different back then.. just their cries used to put me on edge! 💪🏻👔
Agreed! Just about everything hit different back then. I used to fear death claws, even at a high level. But they're not what they used to be either.
@@MrMarco86ahh mate i love your story. Man, I bought mine in 2010 in a bundle. I got oblivion and fallout 3 as I thought the pictures looked cool on the back. I remember loading it up and getting really bored in vault 101 and turning it off. A year later I was mega bored so decided to have another go on it. And fuck me was I glad I did. When I left Vault 101 for the first time was the most insane experience in a game ever. The amount of stuff to figure out and explore was unbelievable. I adore FO3 and always will. I’m 28 now and still hop back on every once in a while. Fantastic game.
@@nuka5619 oh man, that first time you left the vault... Wasn't it like an overwhelming feeling of curiosity and excitement? I'll never forget it. I honestly completely missed Megaton the first time LOL.
Dog meat could die but because of gamers backlash he got given higher health and immortality.
I loved the Karma system in fo3 and i think that FO4 was going to have it included which would explain why a lot of the quests are flat. But thats just my opinion.
Yeah I remember dogmeat being far more vulnerable back in the day... Shame they made him stronger just cause players were bad 💪🏻👔
I'm sure I'd love it, if the standard deviation for the most common colors wasn't a flat line, being grey green.
Agreed they went a little hard on the irradiated green looks but it does add a character, I feel FO4 loses that with all the bright colours
I have the same issue with new vegas except there it’s just dirty orange and brown as far as the eye can see
It’s stupid you can’t send Fawkes or a Robot in there for you. I mean Fawkes as a mutant is almost immune to radiation.
U know u can actually sent Fawkes radiation room at the end, no companions dies hehheh....Meow
@@meghansmith7884 yeah I wasn’t right about it. The game calls you a coward for sending Fawkes in when it’s not cowardly, it’s smart and resourceful in avoiding unnecessary death(s)
They added in that detail because of the outcry (rightfully so) and still give you a badish ending for the smartest decision 😞
I always say if I can go back and experience a game for the first time all over again it'll always be fallout 3. I remember playing oblivion for the first time that year before F3 came out and fell in love with it. Then once I learned that Fallout 3 was pretty much oblivion with guns, I was hyped and oh boy it was so worth it, bugs and all. F3 will always have a place in my heart
I'm right there with you! It's either fallout 3 or bioshock I would love to play for the first time again 💪🏻👔
Ah man bioshock was the one@Guyinthetie
Excellent review. I have now subscribed.
Thanks man appreciate it 💪🏻👔
11:21 ‘tried to be the bigger person’ impossible!
Another great vid though Tie, the jokes are getting better me thinks 💅
Thanks Ali! Hopefully it's something you found more interesting this time around 💪🏻👔
Good editing dude, keep up the work you may be small now but definitely will grow with time. Also remember me when your famous 😂
(Also Rip great deku tree-)
Thank you so much 🙏🏻 felt bad that it wasn't more batman content as I know you guys love it but wanted to pallet cleanse before diving into more DC, tbh I gave the tree what he wanted 💪🏻👔
@@Guyinthetie yes sir I’ll support best I can, and it’s good to mix things up so you can reach a wider audience
@@Guyinthetiebro I need to know your talent. I’m trying to start a revolution 😂
Wow you really played through a lot of games I used to love! I’ll be checking out more of your videos for sure. You should do assassins creed 2, even if you haven’t played it. One of the greats of the era you’re exploring right now for sure
Assassins creed 2 is my favourite in the series so going back to that would be awesome 💪🏻👔
@@Guyinthetie hellllll yeah!
Fallout 3 was great. I have been playing it lately and have made it through the main story. I have the broken steel dlc so it continues afterwards and really my adventure is just beginning. I'm finishing up the wasteland survival guide atm. I'm looking forward to doing the side quest Those! in grayditch. Love that quest
Wow this vid deserves waaay more views. New sub here loved it 👍
Honesty the momentum right now is more then i deserve! thank you so much
One of the greatest games ever
From the music to the game play and do anything go any direction
Crazy . . My first open world and introduction to open world decision based gaming
Loved it
This game and bioshock gave me a massive appreciation for older songs! Especially jazz numbers 💪🏻👔
Butch becomes your follower after you complete the mission trouble on the home front. The mission becomes available only after waters of life main mission is completed for a limited time. Go to vault 101 entrance and listen to the radio after completing waters of life main mission. You must either destroy the vault or convince the overseer to open the vault or just murder him. Butch will then end up in the Muddy rudder in rivet city
Interesting. I thought Butch could be a barber and give you a haircut
@@KaosNova2 The funny thing is if you have him as a follower he can give you a haircut at anytime 😂. You have to have neutral karma when you hire him in rivet city or he tells you you're to intense to come back and see him when you calm down some 🤣
sarah lyons would have been fine if she WORE HER GOD DAMN POWER ARMOUR HELMET FOR ONCE.
*CHRIST.*
🤣🤣
I played Fallout 1 & 2 when I heard that a Fallout 3 would be happening. They were interesting. Fallout 3 was okay. Felt glad it was in a new location. I was disappointed with 4 because it felt really repetitive. I mean I remember more from Fallout 3 because there were odd quests such as finding the old violin, or finding out the town had cannibal serial killers in it.
It's more a turn your brain off survival game then a fallout experience but I actually kinda liked the repetitive gameplay loop
Fallout 3 will always be my all time favourite game ever. I’ve been gaming since I was 3 in 1997 ps1 lol. Played so many games, but nothing came close to this. Leaving the Vault for the very first time knowing nothing about Fallout was a very very special moment in gaming for me, I played FO3 so much it became my life 😂 what a fantastic game. It has the best atmosphere ever. Unfortantely we’ll never see a Fallout styled like this ever again. I love the janky graphics and static dialogue. The karma system made more sense than NV too. Most people prefer NV but it isn’t a patch on FO3 for me.
The jankyness of FO3 and NV makes the game feel authentic to me, I loved playing FO4 but it felt too new and shiny with the current game engine just felt weird 💪🏻👔
loved fallout 3's atmosphere from the start
Atmosphere and setting is top quality 💪🏻👔
I may prefer new vegas but this was my first fallout and 3 may very well be the most important game in the series behind the 1st one since this was where a majority of current fans got our start
It rebooted the series for sure wether or not it's the best or worse one it most definitely is the most important 💪🏻👔
I’m Playing Fallout 3 for the first time rn and I am enjoying it more than I did Fallout 4.
That's awesome! Out of curiosity did you just decide to try FO3 or did the new TV show make you want to go back?
@@Guyinthetie I have yet to actually watch the show, but the hype is definitely what got me thinking about it. Plus the sale.
And I've been on this kick of playing all the old gen games, just played bioshock (all 3) and metro 2033, next fallout and wolfenstein!
I liked 3 way more than 4 but damn, I know you said you got one crash, I had several crashes losing several hours of play in between which was extremely frustrating.
Yeah I feel like I lucked out on this play through! I remember crashing all the time back on the x360.. almost as much as I did in my NV play through 💪🏻👔
I haven't watched your video yet. An add is playing.
On the big man in the sky. It's better than your first kiss,beer, ciggy, or adult video you watched too young
I only started playing it recently. Masterpiece. Well, not the story, but the map, atmosphere, and lore are just amazing.
Story is super weak but it will always be my favourite fallout game 💪🏻👔
I just got it on sale with all its DLC's for my xbox, i already had NV Ultimate Edition and 4 GOTY so I wanted to have the full collection, its not as good as NV but its a very fun and worth while game still
The both do things quite differently so it's hard to pick one over the other.
I'm still working through NV so the jury is still out 💪🏻👔
Was F3 really that good? Yes!
Could it be more polished? Absolutely, but even with its flaws the experience was and still is amazing.
Is F:NV the best in the series? FUCK YEAH!!!
I agree these games are amazing! 💪🏻👔
Fallout 3 feels like a wasteland and yes i do like the green and grey color of the world makes give that atmosphere
The mint overlay does add to the aesthetic I can't lie 💪🏻👔
I don't know if you were there for Fallout 3, but it was revolutionary. Fallout 3 was groundbreaking because of how you could play the game in comparison to the other fallout stories. Judging it today isn't fair other than it has soul, maybe not the most stable or pretty game, but I've always gone with the though this is normal, and bethesda raised me the same with activision but owwell on them. This game story, along with DLC, was great and only matched and succeeded by Obsidian out fallouting Bethesda.
I played FO3 a little after it launched on the 360 so I was around the series early on but not 1 and 2.
When going back to oldies I tend to judge it with it's year in mind 💪🏻👔
Not only is it called Vault 101 because it's a tutorial area, but you should also look up Room 101 If you don't know what that is, it will blow your mind
British comedy from the 90s?
I started playing Fallout for the first time a few weeks ago after watching the series and didn’t know which game to start after going down the rabbit hole I decided to start playing Fallout 4 and boy am I glad I did 😃 that game is amazing I stop playing it.
Fo4 suffers with the writing and the dumb down leveling system but the world is great to explore and it feels so much nicer to play!
Would still recommend going back to 3 and NV
I tried replaying fallout 4 on pc, and holy shit it has the absolute worst movement I’ve ever felt, fov locked, can’t run while holding W and A or S at the same time, it felt so bad playing I didn’t get past 4 hours
Don't forget going above 60fps just seems to break all the dialogue scenes 😅
Nice review. How do you get Dogmeat?
Head to the scrapyard 💪🏻👔
Ive been playing persona 3 non stop until I got the fallout itch from the prime show.
Im watching your vid and I can hear the Iwatodai dorm sound track in the background lol.
I was gonna play some fallout TTW before this vid but now I want to play p3r also lol 😅
I wa
Haha good ear! Yes love the persona soundtracks and they make great backing tracks to commentate over 💪🏻👔
Yes it was that good, I played FO1 in 1997 so this game was amazing also the dlcs were really good.
Fan of the series since the start I respect it! 💪🏻👔
Living with our dad, Liam Neeson😂
Growing up we didn't have to worry about getting kidnapped 💪🏻👔
I played New Vegas and FO3 for the first time ever simultaneously so I really enjoy both a lot! I ended up finishing New Vegas first though and playing all the DLCs before I finished 3 but I’ve since played 3 a lot but still not as much as NV 😁😁
Interesting, which one are you enjoying the most? 💪🏻👔
@@Guyinthetie Oh it’s been years since I first played them. I got the GOTY edition of FO3 and New Vegas Ultimate edition both in late 2011 I think 🤔. But I’m recently playing through them again and I’d have to say New Vegas still 😅. It just has so many options and ways to end quests. I also really love all the checks for special and skill stats! So many options don’t ever show up unless you meet the requirements I just am always finding new things in it every year! I just feel FO3 has much less content
When my friend told me to play this game when it first came out, I was hesitant cause he talked me into buying games I only played for 15 mins and never touched again. But this game consumed my life, when I would get off work I’d shower then eat then turn this game on and explore the dc wasteland till midnight. Weekends I’d play this game non stop all weekend. The only other 2 games that have accomplished this was wartales and xcom
It's mad how you find an absolute gem! Mother Tie brought this as a added Xmas present after I asked for halo 3 with my Xbox 360... She did good that year 💪🏻👔
Is that a Persona 3 soundtrack in the background? W
The persona soundtracks just don't stop going hard! Love them so much 💪🏻👔
I watched the e3 trailer. And my god memories
I feel bad for liking this game. It’s the true example of my guilty pleasure
Guilty pleasure for me is sonic 06 👀
playin fallout 3, I'm on my second playthru. Liked your content, subscribed.
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Is that persona 3 music in the background lol
Good ears! The persona games soundtracks are fire 💪🏻👔
Persona 3 remake is art
My dogmeat died and i hadn't saved in awhile so i moved on. I have toget the dogmeats puppies perk so i can get him back vreat thing about the broken steel dlc dogmeat is kinda broken cause he keeps being reborn like kenny on south park
Yeah not sure when dogmeat had the time to go make all these puppies 🤔
I love these games pretty good I will say I like the side mission writing in fallout my be better in some way but in others I think it’s a little lacking compared to new Vegas
To be fair that seems to be the case with most players of the fallout games, even I remember liking the writing far more in FNV but if doing these videos have taught me anything it's that opinions change 💪🏻👔
Even though I've poured more hours into New Vegas I enjoy 3 more. I find the world more interesting to explore then NV's sometimes dull looking world and it's just simplistic fun while still having enough RPG depth (for me at least). I didn't play 1 or 2 so I wasn't a slave to the lore or concerned if certain things made sense.
Exactly where I'm coming from, never played the classics so FO3 moving away or doing things differently in the "lore" never bothered me
I just want to say: Acting does not always translate into voice acting. Quite the opposite, actually, so I found Neeson to be surprisingly good as I had only ever seen him as a live-action guy.
Guess that's why meme dad stuck with me
He's a great funny haha dad! I played this game before seeing Neeson in anything so he is always the runaway dad to me 💪🏻👔
_"I know you didn't play 1 and 2. Don't worry about it, none of us did."_
Speak for yourself, Zoomer. I'm off to do the series of New Reno quests in the specific, convoluted order that allows you to get simultaneous Made Man status for all four crime families for the 856th time. Now get off my lawn.
It was more that the majority of players came to FO3 as the first in the series thanks to it being launched on consoles 💪🏻👔
The last third of FO4 is considerably better than the start (the start having the issue where there's NO ONE to talk to, and no quests). Far Harbour, DLC wise, is excellent, however.
Haven't got to the DLC yet but your right it's very open at the start of FO4
i would say Fallout 3 has more of the identity of fallout than new Vegas
Definitely far more atmosphere then NV, I actually enjoy exploring the wasteland in FO4
The Mojave just doesn't have as much to do.
its much much easier coming back from new vegas survival and fallout 4 survival
Tried survival in New Vegas for the first time for the video, it adds a level to the game that I didn't think it needed.
Makes me panic every time a companion runs off into battle 💪🏻👔
Would love to see more videos on the fallout series and even maybe Elder Scrolls as well. Your humor and insights are fantastic. Looking forward to more!
I don't hold as much passion for the ES series but I did really love oblivion so that could be an idea 💪🏻👔
Man i cant tell you how many 100s of hours i sunk into both 3 and NV and how many.....hours into 4 hahah great vid as always dude. Peace.
Legend thank you 💪🏻👔 fallout 3 will always hold a place in my heart
Well now we know who "really" dropped the bombs
Could've been the USA or china maybe it was vault-tec but based on the knowledge in FO4 it's pushed as china
It has glaring flaws, but it also does A LOT of things right that people lambast for some weird reason when in fact it's steered the ship to get other great Fallout games to where they are today.
Like to each their own, but I saw a poll asking which Fallout has the best map and the overwhelming majority chose NV....and only 3% chose Fallout 3...in what world is that true?!? Do most people find the Mohave that much more interesting than the Capital Wasteland? C'mon now. I get the frustration for the metro areas, but even those are infinitely more interesting still than a barren desert.
You really can't do polls like that with this series NV fans will die on any hill that is remotely related to new Vegas...
I loved the game but the Mojave is the worst map imo 💪🏻👔
The Apotos Day theme made me a subscriber
Sonic unleashed through its faults gave us a stellar soundtrack 💪🏻👔
Please oh please father guyinthetie make a new Vegas video 🙏
Check the channel 💪🏻👔
I'd argue that people don't hate FO3 more these days, moreso it's more obvious in retrospect, now that we've had a lot more big AAA RPGs with good worldbuilding and consistent writing, that FO3 has more issues than it does anything else wrt making a believable, player choice driven world. Like, FO3 is contemporary with big games in other genres that don't pay any attention to story or making narrative choices or really any of the story-focused elements RPGs are known for, so in comparison to them it seemed amazing at the time. But compared to the good Bioware games within the last decade or so, most of Obsidian's games, Baldur's Gate 3, etc. it comes across really shallow and poorly-written/designed in comparison.
FO3 is still a fantastic turn your brain off and enjoy shooting big dumb mutants with funny laser weapons style of game, but if you criticize it on any deeper level than that then it's nothing but flawed writing and really limp mechanical choices. I.e. karma is such an underbaked system and so nonsensical what with everyone psychically knowing if you killed people or stole some stuff. Bethesda as a developer is just incapable of making deep systems in their games, as we see them do the same thing with their version of the faction reputation system in FO4, even though they could have literally just copied how Obsidian did it in New Vegas and been better.
I find i have more fun on 3. Nv feels so baron at least to me, also less interesting lore wise.
Super interesting as most people prefer New Vegas, only got a few hours into NV for the video and can agree with you on this so far 💪🏻👔
"also less interesting lore wise"
i think you can have your opinion, i cant understand, but you can
Fallout 3 and Oblivion were the two most played games on 360 for me since I quit playing console around 09. Replayed through Fallout 3 recently just for nostalgia sake and I enjoyed it overall, Mothership Zeta is still such a disappointment because of how buggy of an experience it was. My favorite thing still is getting the perk that gives you pups whenever Dogmeat dies. now I'll never lose my best friends. 😢
I hated how long it took me to try out oblivion, i remember standing in a game shop with oblivion in one hand and two worlds in the other... I made a mistake that day 😭
I’m biased this game got me through some dark times in life
FO3 and Bioshock did the same for me in this generation 💪🏻👔
If you never played 1 and 2 you don't know what you've missed.
Seeing a lot of comments telling me I need to go back and play the classics 💪🏻👔
Let’s be honest every Fallout but 76 was good. I’ve been hearing 76 is finally worth some weight in salt so I’ll probably give it a try
Lots of people are telling me to give 76 a shot now so I'm right there with you 💪🏻👔
76 isn’t a traditional Fallout though. It’s the same as saying “FNV is better than Fallout Shelter”
76 isn’t a bad game either, never was.
@@nuka5619 ehhhhh it’s a acquired taste the only thing not making me OD on psycho was playing with friends in the early days when there wasn’t NPCs, now it’s definitely worth a try but I’ve simply have had to much bad experiences to try it on my own again
My biggest problem with fallout 3 is that it’s essentially just fallout 4 with new Vegas gameplay. Giving me no reason to play it
FO3 is FO4 with NV gameplay... My brain has actually left my skull 💀
@@Guyinthetie is it not tho?
I'll defend this game anyday this game is awesome. New Vegas was okay I guess. And yeah I loved 4 friggin awesome of a game
Honestly have the same take, probably massively due to the nostalgia I have for FO3 but replaying FO4 (video soon) I fun the gameplay absolutely excellent 👌🏻
wait the dad was actually voiced by liam neeson?! i just started the game and my first impression on the voice was a young liam neeson lol
Yeah it was actually him!
27:49 Bethesda... fuck you! If you just wanted to rip everything from the first two games, why not just remake Fallout and Fallout 2 in 3D? I hate the story of this game.
if you play classic fallout 1 and/or 2 don't do a low Intelligence build you'll thank me later
But I want to roleplay as myself 💪🏻👔
I’m bad at my job to
Every job I've had has said I lacked enthusiasm 💪🏻👔
Fallout New Vegas Next please!! 😊
Soon 👀
You gonna do Fallout 1, 2, and Tactics?
Definitely worth a look back at some point for a video for sure 💪🏻👔
Fallout FREE??! Oh boy! Let me get it right now
It's almost as good as Fallout TOO
A fallout 4 vid would be cool❤ glad to see fallout 3 explained for the new fans!
Once the new vegas video is out and people seem to enjoy it still 100% will dive into FO4
@@Guyinthetie W tie🔥🔥
so his fps isn't set to 60 so his physics are going nuts
Funny how going above 60fps messes with these games even fo4.. could change it but I find it funny 🤣
@@Guyinthetie yeah man made bloody mess funny
Nothing like British people pronouncing the number 3 as the word "Free"
Do I need to be self conscious of this now? I only just started saying "water" correctly 🤣🤣

I will always love Fallout 3
With you on that 💪🏻👔
i learned 2 things: you can skip the goat and that it has an impact on your skills
Wait it has an impact? I thought skipping the test just allows you to pick the stats?
@@Guyinthetie naah i didnt know the goat enforces stats on you 😭😭😭😭
Oh haha yeah it can give you a pretty random build if you don't do it yourself 💪🏻😁
@@Guyinthetie yeeah that means i gotta restart 😭😭
china was innocent
How was China innocent?
Says he isn’t cringe asks for a subscribe before the video starts two minutes in
That's my secret cap.. I'm always cringe 💪🏻👔
3 use to be my favorite and I thought the New Vegas fans sucked. I was wrong. New Vegas is the best Fallout game and one of the best ever.
My issue with the NV base is that utter hatred they seem to have for FO3 💪🏻👔
@Guyinthetie yeah that's why I didn't like them. I loved Fo3 and once I played NV I realized why everyone loved it so much. In hindsight, the story, your dad killing himself and then not being able to send Fawkes or Charon in there "just because" is really weak writing but it's still amazing and one of my favorite games of all time. Got a thousand hours across 3 and NV I bet.
