      I want that one time all maps from the Fallout Universe like Fallout 3, New Vegas, Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 + all the DLC maps are combined and put into one map. As well as all weapons, factions, items, mutans and so on. Would be very great dont you think?

      I know the video is 2 years old I've watched it multiple times. But the only thing I ask is if you add "Series" to the title of this video because I just now realized thats what this is I mean in whole it is the history of fallout but overall it's about how fallout came along not the actual history more or less the history of the series upbringing

      Obsedian know how to make perfect Fallout story but New Vegas used the same game engine of 3. So obsedian simply used Bathesda's game engine and add some new features. Also Bathesda made a new game engine for Fallout 4 with more options like better Power armor, armor that can be equipped with clothing, and settlement building. So in my OPINION
      Obsedian : better story and missions
      Bathesda: better game play.

      @@rahulsar2030 New Vegas even plays better than Fallout 3 on a technical level, with the addition of iron sights. And the additional elements like settlement building in Fallout 4 were clumsy and awkward. There are few things more frustrating than playing a schizophrenic game with unfocused design, and that's what Fallout 4 felt like. Contrast that with a game, like, say, Dragon Age: Origins, or The Last of Us. Each of those two played to their own strengths in the best possible way.

      After having recently played both Fallout 1 & 2 for the first time I gotta say they didn't age nearly as well as Baldur's Gate did for example which I did play on release. Even for people that only recently got hooked on more modern "c"rpgs like Pillars of Eternity or Pathfinder the old BG titles are pretty easy to grasp mechanically whereas Fallout's controls almost appear arcane in comparison. Of course their recent remastering didn't hurt in that regard either. All that said I personally regard New Vegas as my favorite Fallout game by far with Fallout 2 & 3 vying over a distant second place.
      Sure, the original games and Fallout 2 especially were really good games for the late 90s but if you haven't had the chance to enjoy them back then they simply don't invoke the same feelings.
      At any rate, after the colossal train wreck that was Fallout 76 and the recent resurgence of crpgs maybe Bethesda will license the franchise back out to Obsidian again for a new isometric Fallout. One can hope? At this point that might be the only way for them to save their sacred Brahmin.

Fallout tactics had great combat. 3 and NV were great open world next gen RPGs with great combat. 4 had great visuals,characters, gameplay, and 76 even had a few great moments.

    New Vegas is my favorite by far, but there are things I like about each main series Fallout game. Fallout 1 is just an utter classic and atmospheric masterpiece, Fallout 2 had great RPG elements, Fallout 3 was good for freeroaming and atmosphere, 4 had some pretty nice ideas when it came to gameplay innovations. I just hope that Bethesda manages to get back on track with the series and combines the greatest strengths of each games for future titles, rather than going with what's most popular. If they don't I hope that Obsidian and maybe some other developers can pick up the torch and create a good spiritual successor.

      I haven't played it yet, but maybe The Outer Worlds is that spiritual successor.
      I also agree about New Vegas; an all time classic. But emulating old games through sequels will never present us with something truly revolutionary.

    Bethesda: "How do we take an already amazing franchise and make it better"
    EA: "How do we take an already amazing game studio and make it worse"
    Anyway, the thing about Fallout is you cant make multiple within a few years, it just wouldnt work the same way. To make a good Fallout game there has to be time in between a release. Even if Fallout 76 was the best Fallout game objectively, people would've still hated it. What makes Fallout S.P.E.C.I.A.L is that like you said, it's an event when a new release comes out (not saying they arent good, they are some of the best games of all time). After NV and 3 Fallout became this almost sacred icon. Whenever Bethesda even hinted at another Fallout people stopped to listen. But now, when they released 76, it didnt have the same excitement to it as other games in the series. The bugs arent the only reason its bad, it just isnt Fallout anymore. Even NV, like you said, was able to overcome all the glitches and bugs to become a fan favorite game, but even after Bethesda has patched the glitches, and the bugs are long gone people will still look back on it with a sour taste in their mouth. I know this is a long comment, but it's coming from a saddened fan, sad to see Bethesda fall so far from grace and one of my favorite game franchises' names pulled through the mud. I find myself watching the e3 reveals for 76 and 4 because it makes me happy reminiscing that, at one point, Bethesda was still a very well respected and prestigious game studio.
    To be a true Fallout game you need a few core essentials. Heavy emphasis on exploration, great story, fun gameplay, and, most importantly, a true love and understanding of the series. Bethesda has shown that they do have a true love, a true love for money. Thank you.

The map was great, the shooting was improved, but it didn't feel like Fallout to me. I love and replay the first 4 Fallout rpg's but haven't touched Fallout 4 for years.

    The amount of hate Fallout 4 gets is insane. Like nobody appreciates what Bethesda has done with that game. The gameplay mechanics are the best they ever have been for a Fallout game. Yeah there’s some RPG elements and narrative lacking but overall superb game. The only gripe I had about the story was it like Fallout 3 was too close ended unlike Fallout NV. Also, the DLC was cool but I wanted more and there was a total missed opportunity with the memory den using the SS’s memories of his time in the army. But overall Fallout 4 was a solid 9/10.

    People just want something to bitch about when they talk down on Fallout 4. Your description was spot on though. Yes it suffered from a less engaging story line, but the advancements in all other aspects of the game dwarf that complaint, as it is a remarkably good game that does stay true to the originals. People just need to mellow out and be happy with the amazing advancements in the engine, and be happy that much of it is going to benefit not only future Fallout games, but future Elder Scrolls games as well. I think we can all just agree though they need to hire the Obsidian guys to write the next installment, since Fallout 76 is basically going to be F4 with people.

      Shawn Taylor Ghouls not needing food or water, X-01 being in pre war locations, jet being pre war, the children of atom being all the way up in far harbor ( And the hubologists being in Nuka world is pretty ridiculous too). Those are just the ones off the top of my head i’ve read lists and watched videos that point out all of them, and it really shows how bad of a job the writers did.

    Vats technically was in fo1 and 2 first but slightly different and was called aim shot.
    Fo4 protagonist was called the sole survivor and fallout 3 protagonist was the lone wanderer.

    Been playing the beta for 76. I cannot wait for the release. Its a lot better than I would have ever guessed. I still wish they would add some npc's. But the game so far is great.

      For me, it's just about everything. Fallout 76 is utterly antithetical to everything that made Fallout so great in the first place, if you ask me.

    Fallout 2 and tactics were my favourite. Fallout 2 for its story and slightly more immersive gameplay but tactics for straight up guerilla warfare. The ability to have spotted an enemy from stealth and then set your squad up for an ambush was great fun
