But if you die? Nothing of value was lost.

Yeah, seemed weird to me too, back in the days. XD Today I´m a bit more in the game-mecchanics as I were as a child and it makes more sense to me now. A critical hit could, in addition to only dealing damage, also cripple the bodypart you´re aiming at. And sometimes it can happen that you cripple a bodypart without dealing damage. Also the part with the -16% chance at aiming and hit. The game-mechanics say that a roll of 20 on a d20 (yes. the game rolls a twenty sided dice hidden in the background for skill-checks. Hilarious^^) is always a critical success agaist all odds. For me a 10/10 too!
@@czarnakoza9697 Even Fallout 3 and NV have DR and DT. NV just doesn't use DR except for one piece of equipment (iirc the rebreather) and even that due to a mistake.
It was a very solid logic . Even if you find some critical spot , you might not be able damage it . Carapace , power armor etc . Fallout world was tough XD
The creator, Tim Cain, has a lot of interesting stories about the development of Fallout 1 and 2. Also how the CEO screwed him and everyone else over. CEOs never change.
15:00 I remember playing Fallout 2 and critically missing a shotgun shot. The message read something like "You critically miss a Raider. The shotgun blows up in your hand, destroying your arm and killing you on the spot. You were hit for 250 hit points." and my character played that "half of your torso gets vaporized" animation. 21:25 Killian is actually modelled after and voiced by Richard Dean Anderson. Ya know, McGuyver or Jack O'Neill from Stargate.
The voice cast in these games is actually surprisingly star-studded. Like for instance, in addition to Anderson, Fallout 1 has Clancy Brown, Keith David and Tony Shalhoub. Not to mention Ron Perlman being the narrator in all of them up to New Vegas. New Vegas is the craziest though, game starts with fucking Matthew Perry shooting you in the head.
@@lonelyincorporated1583 So this one time I was in the Den. I accidentally pissed off someone and ran away from them. They tried to shoot me, but critically missed and hit a member of another faction. This turned her and all her guards hostile. During the fire fight someone hit a random casino patron with a stray bullet. the entire town went completely hostile. Everyone was fighting everyone else, and even the orphans got gunned down. By the end, I think 20 people were dead.
You can get a rad scorpion tail in the cave and give it to the doctor in shady sands. He makes an antidote or something which you can either keep for yourself or give to the guy who’s dying there
theyre called crpgs because role-playing games were played exclusively on tabletop like dnd and similar games before videogames got fleshed out the way they did
@@LeonserGT No it actually really is "computer RPGs" because back then it was a more novel concept and also later to differentiate it from say, JRPGs that would get popular on consoles.
@@LeonserGTIf you look around, Harebrained Schemes did the same rhing with Shadowrun's marketing too by trying to say it was the "Return" of good CRPGs. The kind of well written, straightforward but interesting RPGs from the 80s-90s boom. That's why we got Shadowrun Returns as a name too.
A few really important things to note about this game that I love, 1: the game goes on with or without you, theres a set schedule for certain events to happen in the game, and if you arent there by the time they happen, you can actually miss out on a lot of context in the games, such as the events of necropolis. 2: Theres a lot of weird item interactions that you can do in the game that are really fun, like after setting the timer for a bomb you can pickpocket the bomb into someones inventory to blow them up. And 3: if you know where to go, and how to do the correct setup, you can beat this game at level 1, never fighting anything, and do it in like 10 minutes, its freaking hilarious
Fallout 1 was originally going to use the GURPS role-playing system from Steve Jackson Games, but the deal fell through. This explains your "Critical hit for 0 damage" incident. GURPS combat consists of: (1) Your attack, (2) opponent's dodge, and (3) opponents damage mitigation. You attempt to hit was a critical success, but because you were using a low damage attack (fists) you didn't penetrate the radscorpion's armour. The crit. would have applied a multiplier to any damage that did successfully penetrate.
If I remember correctly, the damage calculation is done in such a way that everything is done before subtracting the DT from damage So, you roll for hit, then you roll for damage, multiply that by your weapon modifiers (see AP 10mm dealing half the damage or the FMJ .223 dealing 10% more) and your enemy's DR, roll for critical hit, roll on the crit table (from instakill to cripple+knockout to knockout to knock over to beeg damage to big damage(depends on the body part + there's some DR and DT ignoring shenanigans)) then subtract the DT and add your DT mitigation coming from the ammo type I don't remember the exact crit damage modifiers, but here's the picture: You roll successfully for your hit. You roll for 9 damage. You have 10mm ammo so you do 1,5 of that, dealing 13,5 dmg, rounding up it is now 14 damage. Your enemy's DR is 50%, so they take 7 damage. You successfully roll for crit, landing on the smallest amount of damage done, meaning you do, let's say, 50% more, meaning you do 11 dmg rounded up. Then, you take your enemy's 6 DT into consideration, multiply that by 2 since you're shooting 10mm and now you've got 11 damage and 12 DT. Voila! Zero damage critical.
Props to you.. I’m 22 and I’m trying to get into old rpg games. The oldest non arcade game is resident evil 2. I don’t have that much patience but old games have a charm new games don’t have
On my first playthrough of fallout 2 i saved up and spent all my money on a gauss rifle and ammo for it, 5 minutes later random encounter, i shoot an enemy and see "you critically missed, your weapon was destroyed" didn't save for like 2h, cool game :^)
90's cRPG (Fallouts, BGs, etc) were made for us - gamers - to have FUN. I finished Fallout1 & 2 couple dozen times and everytime i had different experience, different dialogues and new quests were unlocked based on your character build and reputation. It was pure exploration extravaganza.
@damsen978 Well they wanted that younger audience appeal, but tbh they still keep it quite grim at times. And if you want more of it's type, Underrail is basically a spiritual successor to Fallout 1&2. If you need more info or convincing, Sseth made a wonderful vid on it.
fallout 1 was the diablo 1 of all diablo (and to the point, arpg) games. There was a certain feel to it. It was gone when I played 3. Not played another fallout game since
The alien oneshot pistol brings back memories.. i remember secretly playing this game as a kid on my dad's computer. I found that pistol and used it as an absolute crutch for as long as it lasted. I remember it could oneshot the most powerful enemies with ease, i kept reloading my save when it ran out because my tiny little brain couldn't survive in this game without it.
You got this old man good, definitely watching the full streams after this! It just gives me so much joy to see people experience these classics for the first time and see that some of what wowed me ages ago is still a fun experience today.
We had a really scuffed DnD setup in highschool. Our DM was the supervisor at KFC so he took lots of containers and cups of various sizes to use as buildings on our board. We also used Lego figures for our characters and enemies.
Alright, here are some tips for new players: 1.) Difficulty - If you actually want to have fun in the first two games, go into Preferences, set the game speed to max, and set both difficulty options (yes there are two separate difficulty options) to low. There is no shame in this, the game will still kick your ass. 2.) Infinite money - As soon as you find the hub (and you have yourself at least 6 luck), go and find the casino. You are going to one of the tables, saving your game, and then pressing and holding down the 5 key, and then (also) the 1 key. These two will rapidly choose the options “bet $50”, the highest bet amount, and “bet again”. If your IRL luck and in-game luck is decent enough, within 15 IRL minutes, you’ll have won enough caps to buy whatever you want for the rest of the game. 3.) Increasing SPECIAL stats - First, during character creation, get the Intense training perk. Less xp is worth it for more SPECIAL stats. Next, never get any stat to 10 during character creation, and specifically leave strength at 6, and both intelligence and luck at 8, if you want to eventually max those three out. - In the game, becoming a brotherhood of steel member means that you can purchase singular upgrades to strength, perception, endurance, intelligence, and agility. - Now, by abusing the game’s mechanics, it’s actually possible to buy an intelligence upgrade twice. By taking like 4 or 5 mentats at once, and then waiting a day, this will cause your intelligence to fall to 2 or lower, which will give you the dumbass speech that was shown off in this video. This will allow you to buy a second int upgrade, as the dumb dialogue has a separate check for if you already got an int upgrade. - Going back to strength, the reason you want to keep it at 6, even though this will unfortunately be a huge handicap in the early game until you can get the strong back and pack rat perks, is that you can increase strength by +1 with the brotherhood, and then power armor also gives you +3 strength. - As for luck, this one is a bit trickier. You have to find Chuck in the boneyards. He will read your fortune, and this will increase your luck by +1. However, by following a VERY specific set of dialogue options with him, you can glitch the game, and get +2 luck. I highly recommend looking up the walkthrough on how to do this, I always find it hard to remember, myself. 4.) Radiation - Radiation in Fallout 1 and 2 is absolutely no joke. And in order to join the brotherhood and get the upgrades and power armor, you need to enter the most radiated area of Fallout 1, the glow. Rad x and Radaway are ESSENTIAL for entering this area, and you need to constantly make sure you are at the max level of radiation resistance. - How radiation kills you in these early games is different than you’d expect. Getting radiation sickness means that all of your SPECIAL stats will take a random debuff, and if any of your SPECIAL stats become 0 or lower because of this, it means instant death, which can absolutely soft-lock your game if you’re being stupid. If you’re radiation free, or at least not suffering from radiation sickness when you finish in the glow, you should be fine to just leave and get your rewards from the brotherhood. 5.) Saving - Save often, and save in different save slots. Have a different save for every location you find. Have a separate save slot for when you’re just wandering around. You have about 10 save slots, use all of them. You will mess up and not realize it, so it’s always good to only have to reset about an hour of progress, rather than 3 hours. 6.) Fallout 2 - Download and install the Restoration Project patch.
Last time I replayed FO1 I used the Fallout Et Tu mod that ports the entire game to the FO2 engine with all its QoL improvements. However the infinite money trick in the Hub doesn't work with the new gambling mechanics from 2. Gambling is a useless skill in 2. You need 100+ to ensure you win the slots but they have limited money.
@@AgusSkywalker Yeah they nerfed it too hard, but it's still usable. It's the easiest way of getting 100k for advanced implants late game if you don't want to farm bootleggers caves.
@@1thevm1 yeah, but in FO1 you only needed around 60%, in FO2 you need over 100%, that's 2-3 more levels wasted on that. And you can't use it everywhere. Only Redding and New Reno, because in The Den for example you have the craps tables that aren't affected by luck.
@@AgusSkywalker Yea but you can still annihilate the Den gun merchants and the Slavers guild with little guilt or impact on anyone's opinion, and take over Lara's gangs hideout to store it all till you can sell if off or get the car. Though thats a trip to Gecko regardless.
There are dedicated sidequests, they appear in your pip-boy. Killing the scorpions is one of them, you get a bunch of xp for completing it and I think Aradesh gives you some kind of reward as well
Speaking of quests, in Fallout 2 some of them allow you to negotiate the terms of your reward to the point of stripping the quest giver naked, sometimes literally. For instance, there's a woman who asks you to bail out her husband, and if you're a really scummy dude, you can demand that she sleeps with you right in front of her family, and since she has no choice, she'll do it, cursing and swearing at you the whole time. It's great.

Since the show came out it has been so much fun watching the younger generation discover a game I loved as a kid. I have never felt older and I'm loving it
@@Strider1633 He should also get the Talking Heads That Actually Talk mod which adds voice acted 3d model sprites to a bunch of characters, its actually crazy how high fidelity it is

Hey Kelski, regarding your plans for Fallout New Vegas: FONV is pretty much a direct sequel to Fallout 2 (which is a direct sequel to Fallout 1). While you can (and will) enjoy FONV on its own, you get a lot more out of it if you know where some of the characters and factions are coming from. So I'd recommend you playing Fallout 1 and 2, if not before New Vegas, then maybe concurrently, alternating between 2D and 3D. Even if you do it on your own time, off-stream. (FO3 not required as it takes place on the east coast instead of the west coast.) Either way, love your content, stay awesome!
I have a soft spot for Fallout: A Post-Nuclear Roleplaying Game cause I am old enough that it was the one to pop my Fallout cherry. Always glad to see someone experience it. Really glad when someone recognizes that the parts that make it rough around the edges, that make it clunky, the design choices that are intentionally not designed for new players? Are also the things that make it awesome.
Oh man that manual was gorgeous. I ended up getting fallout while on a class trip to DC, bunch of other kids were into fallout, spent a lot of my free time poring over the manual which was genuinely entertaining to read because it just built so much lore up on its own. Was great when 3 came out, when I realized I'd stood in the same spot in real life as I was in-game at the national library.
I believe you're playing the Steam Version. It removed children NPCs(and thus the Childkiller perk) and made the game easier by removing the second time-limit. In Fallout 1 it's not a big deal, but 2 got censored hard and it causes problems, I'd play the CD version for 2. Or play Tactics first.
I believe you can just mod it back in. However, as you said, it's only impactful in Fallout 2. Fallout 1 doesn't suffer from this in any meaningful way.
@@enricofermi3471 It can actually make using the Red Ryder a lot harder as all the kids in Shady Sands have BB guns with ammo and that's easily the best source
In fallout 2, it basically prevents you from progressing normally in the game, because the regular progression involves a kid at some point, forcing you into a much more convoluted method to progress.
As a 26 yr old who had their nostalgic run through the classic fallouts a few years ago, I have to say, you’ve embarked upon a wonderful journey that is truly timeless. Some people neg it for its rushed issues but if you can get the fan patch for fallout 2 to fix the breaking bugs, it’s just a completely amplified experience of fallout 1. Everything you love about it cranked up to 10
If you were enoying the 1INT run on Fallout you'd LOVE a Malkavian run in Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines if you haven't done that yet! This is my first video of yours ever but I'll sub just in case that ever happens (also for the hilarious death image montage throughout this video lol)
Dude, you've got nerves of steel to not only give this ancient game a chance, but also commiting long enough to learn so much more about it & appreciate so many of the neat experiences & details it offers. Big respect, cuz the learning curve is a brick wall covered in rusty razors! 😂
I gotta say I applaud the editing for the rattatouile intro, you even had the frame stop on the flash frame to the vault dweller's body. That's attention to detail right there. edit: actually I applaud the editing for the whole video
yea there's a guy named Torr in Klamath that normally speaks in very broken english. But when you meet him with 1 int, you exchange grunts with very intellectual dialogue in parenthesis
This video is a true testament to the importance of critical lens when forming an opinion. Depending on one's perspective, glaring flaws and "jank", for lack of a better word, can either break the experience, or somehow actually *enhance* it. For me, this game is unplayable. I have tried numerous times to get into it, and I find the systems at play as impenetrable as concrete. So it's nice to see that the exact same issues that stop me from enjoying a game can serve as motivation to keep playing for others. Video games are awesome.

@@kel_ski thanks dude. just finished the video. you and I both know that this style of video is fairly common. So why do I feel like this stands out more than the litany of other videos like this that I've watched? I don't know bro it just feels like you're really having fun and not just producing content. I felt it. This feels like a played out comment but I've never posted something like this on someone's channel, but like this whole video? More of it. All of it. Fallout 1 specifically. It was so awesome being able to watch somebody play an older game for the first time especially when I haven't played it before either. There's this one dude who makes rust videos and he's amazing at the game, but one can't help but to feel the extent of involvement is that of a spectator on the sidelines. This felt like I went back in time with a buddy, inserted the CD-ROM into the D:\ drive, and jumped into a new and exciting pixelated world for the first time. This was perfect algo timing because after a soul-draining shift of adult life today, this was a refreshing break from the world, as ephemeral as it was. Fuck yeah
You can also just look up a channel with guide videos for Fallout 1 and 2. There are a couple of good ones that are extremely helpful for new players and not that long.
@@russianoverkill3715 Most new players never play F1 for more than a few minutes, because the dated UI and menu turns them away, that's the point of some these beginner guides with tips, that is not same thing as a walkthrough.
In Fallout 3, I killed my first Deathclaw around level 5 or so. In New Vegas, I managed it at 15. In Fallout 1, I didn't dare fight the first Deathclaw until level 20, when I could reliably crit both its legs and its eyes before it could rush across the map and disembowel me. Edit: My character was a pistol person, and I used the .223 Pistol religiously. 18:45 You gotta talk to Aradesh to get a reward. 🤣 Yes, it's very old school in how you approach quests. Aradesh asks you for scorpion tails to make medicine, and that's your main reason for doing it.
If you're digging the surprise for how advanced and interactive some older cRPGs' worlds are, don't miss "Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura", from the same core group of developers of OG Fallout (and I mean the same people, not the same company... long story about that, and a relevant part of video-game History too!). Thanks for your videos!
Been interested in dipping a toe in the fallout series and, while I have Fallout 4 already thanks to PS+, the first game seems far more interesting. It’s just about getting over that wall of dealing with how old some of the systems are and facing how brutal bad luck can be. This was a great video at making that wall seem surmountable
These are such good games but don’t be ashamed to use a guide a lot. If you haven’t played 3 or NV, they would definitely be more entry level to this than fallout 4 is lol. You should give them a shot!

1:40 "I never played it, you see I grew up in the Skyrim era" Quite the inverse of me then : I grew up in the 90's and I never played Skirim, but I played Fallout 1 upon release and speaking of Skirim I'm still mad at Bethesda for making "Oblivion/Skyrim in the wasteland" out of the Fallout IP.
Fallout 1 and 2 were such huge parts of my teen years. I adore this game, and the idea of new players discovering them also makes me happy. I wish they could be remastered, though.
Some of the details in old fallout in general is amazingly funny like in fo2 theres a low intelligence guy in the starting town that guards the Brahman but it you also have low intelligence his dialog becomes the most sophisticated and well versed out of any npc in the game
The production value you put in these videos is 11/10 ❤ And those 'Dead vault dweller' popups you sprinkled in the video are just too funny. Thanks for the review, i felt fully engaged and look forward to another fallout video, but only if it doesn't burn you out! I wouldn't want you to fall out

A critical hit could, in addition to only dealing damage, also cripple the bodypart you´re aiming at.
And sometimes it can happen that you cripple a bodypart without dealing damage.
Also the part with the -16% chance at aiming and hit.
The game-mechanics say that a roll of 20 on a d20 (yes. the game rolls a twenty sided dice hidden in the background for skill-checks. Hilarious^^) is always a critical success agaist all odds.
For me a 10/10 too!
happens if you hit a guy in armor
fo1 and 2 have a interesting armor system where its both a damage treshold AND a resistance
@@czarnakoza9697 Even Fallout 3 and NV have DR and DT. NV just doesn't use DR except for one piece of equipment (iirc the rebreather) and even that due to a mistake.
It was a very solid logic . Even if you find some critical spot , you might not be able damage it . Carapace , power armor etc . Fallout world was tough XD
@@ErdeZ 3 uses dr
nv uses dt
1 and 2 uses both at the same time

15:00 I remember playing Fallout 2 and critically missing a shotgun shot. The message read something like "You critically miss a Raider. The shotgun blows up in your hand, destroying your arm and killing you on the spot. You were hit for 250 hit points." and my character played that "half of your torso gets vaporized" animation.

Wtf bro this is crazy
@@lonelyincorporated1583 Yeah, shit's so surreal I couldn't even be mad.
@@LecherousLizard I kinda want fallout 2 because of this
The voice cast in these games is actually surprisingly star-studded. Like for instance, in addition to Anderson, Fallout 1 has Clancy Brown, Keith David and Tony Shalhoub. Not to mention Ron Perlman being the narrator in all of them up to New Vegas.
New Vegas is the craziest though, game starts with fucking Matthew Perry shooting you in the head.
@@lonelyincorporated1583 So this one time I was in the Den. I accidentally pissed off someone and ran away from them. They tried to shoot me, but critically missed and hit a member of another faction. This turned her and all her guards hostile. During the fire fight someone hit a random casino patron with a stray bullet. the entire town went completely hostile. Everyone was fighting everyone else, and even the orphans got gunned down. By the end, I think 20 people were dead.

@@kel_ski I have to tell you something
It's called porn.
Staged and not real.
A few really important things to note about this game that I love, 1: the game goes on with or without you, theres a set schedule for certain events to happen in the game, and if you arent there by the time they happen, you can actually miss out on a lot of context in the games, such as the events of necropolis. 2: Theres a lot of weird item interactions that you can do in the game that are really fun, like after setting the timer for a bomb you can pickpocket the bomb into someones inventory to blow them up. And 3: if you know where to go, and how to do the correct setup, you can beat this game at level 1, never fighting anything, and do it in like 10 minutes, its freaking hilarious
Fallout 1 was originally going to use the GURPS role-playing system from Steve Jackson Games, but the deal fell through. This explains your "Critical hit for 0 damage" incident. GURPS combat consists of: (1) Your attack, (2) opponent's dodge, and (3) opponents damage mitigation. You attempt to hit was a critical success, but because you were using a low damage attack (fists) you didn't penetrate the radscorpion's armour. The crit. would have applied a multiplier to any damage that did successfully penetrate.
If I remember correctly, the damage calculation is done in such a way that everything is done before subtracting the DT from damage
So, you roll for hit, then you roll for damage, multiply that by your weapon modifiers (see AP 10mm dealing half the damage or the FMJ .223 dealing 10% more) and your enemy's DR, roll for critical hit, roll on the crit table (from instakill to cripple+knockout to knockout to knock over to beeg damage to big damage(depends on the body part + there's some DR and DT ignoring shenanigans)) then subtract the DT and add your DT mitigation coming from the ammo type
I don't remember the exact crit damage modifiers, but here's the picture:
You roll successfully for your hit. You roll for 9 damage. You have 10mm ammo so you do 1,5 of that, dealing 13,5 dmg, rounding up it is now 14 damage. Your enemy's DR is 50%, so they take 7 damage. You successfully roll for crit, landing on the smallest amount of damage done, meaning you do, let's say, 50% more, meaning you do 11 dmg rounded up. Then, you take your enemy's 6 DT into consideration, multiply that by 2 since you're shooting 10mm and now you've got 11 damage and 12 DT. Voila! Zero damage critical.

Are you describing the stupid run in the early fallouts or just the normal dialogue options in fallout 4, hard to distinguish
On my first playthrough of fallout 2 i saved up and spent all my money on a gauss rifle and ammo for it, 5 minutes later random encounter, i shoot an enemy and see "you critically missed, your weapon was destroyed" didn't save for like 2h, cool game :^)
90's cRPG (Fallouts, BGs, etc) were made for us - gamers - to have FUN. I finished Fallout1 & 2 couple dozen times and everytime i had different experience, different dialogues and new quests were unlocked based on your character build and reputation. It was pure exploration extravaganza.
damn, fallout 1 is another one of those games that are old but amazing and i love it
@damsen978 Well they wanted that younger audience appeal, but tbh they still keep it quite grim at times. And if you want more of it's type, Underrail is basically a spiritual successor to Fallout 1&2. If you need more info or convincing, Sseth made a wonderful vid on it.
@@stankobarabata2406nah, dude, Bethesda Fallouts are not bleak, they're theme parks.
The big timeskip Bethesda did softened the series too much.

Fallout 1? Is time moving backwards? Great game and glad to see it talked about.
Hope I was able to make a good video on it!
Plenty of new content getting made about fo1
The alien oneshot pistol brings back memories.. i remember secretly playing this game as a kid on my dad's computer.
I found that pistol and used it as an absolute crutch for as long as it lasted.
I remember it could oneshot the most powerful enemies with ease, i kept reloading my save when it ran out because my tiny little brain couldn't survive in this game without it.
You got this old man good, definitely watching the full streams after this!
It just gives me so much joy to see people experience these classics for the first time and see that some of what wowed me ages ago is still a fun experience today.
We had a really scuffed DnD setup in highschool. Our DM was the supervisor at KFC so he took lots of containers and cups of various sizes to use as buildings on our board. We also used Lego figures for our characters and enemies.
That part with the alien gun and the radscorpion was about your skill with energy weapons
Alright, here are some tips for new players:
1.) Difficulty - If you actually want to have fun in the first two games, go into Preferences, set the game speed to max, and set both difficulty options (yes there are two separate difficulty options) to low. There is no shame in this, the game will still kick your ass.
2.) Infinite money - As soon as you find the hub (and you have yourself at least 6 luck), go and find the casino. You are going to one of the tables, saving your game, and then pressing and holding down the 5 key, and then (also) the 1 key. These two will rapidly choose the options “bet $50”, the highest bet amount, and “bet again”. If your IRL luck and in-game luck is decent enough, within 15 IRL minutes, you’ll have won enough caps to buy whatever you want for the rest of the game.
3.) Increasing SPECIAL stats - First, during character creation, get the Intense training perk. Less xp is worth it for more SPECIAL stats. Next, never get any stat to 10 during character creation, and specifically leave strength at 6, and both intelligence and luck at 8, if you want to eventually max those three out. - In the game, becoming a brotherhood of steel member means that you can purchase singular upgrades to strength, perception, endurance, intelligence, and agility. - Now, by abusing the game’s mechanics, it’s actually possible to buy an intelligence upgrade twice. By taking like 4 or 5 mentats at once, and then waiting a day, this will cause your intelligence to fall to 2 or lower, which will give you the dumbass speech that was shown off in this video. This will allow you to buy a second int upgrade, as the dumb dialogue has a separate check for if you already got an int upgrade. - Going back to strength, the reason you want to keep it at 6, even though this will unfortunately be a huge handicap in the early game until you can get the strong back and pack rat perks, is that you can increase strength by +1 with the brotherhood, and then power armor also gives you +3 strength. - As for luck, this one is a bit trickier. You have to find Chuck in the boneyards. He will read your fortune, and this will increase your luck by +1. However, by following a VERY specific set of dialogue options with him, you can glitch the game, and get +2 luck. I highly recommend looking up the walkthrough on how to do this, I always find it hard to remember, myself.
4.) Radiation - Radiation in Fallout 1 and 2 is absolutely no joke. And in order to join the brotherhood and get the upgrades and power armor, you need to enter the most radiated area of Fallout 1, the glow. Rad x and Radaway are ESSENTIAL for entering this area, and you need to constantly make sure you are at the max level of radiation resistance. - How radiation kills you in these early games is different than you’d expect. Getting radiation sickness means that all of your SPECIAL stats will take a random debuff, and if any of your SPECIAL stats become 0 or lower because of this, it means instant death, which can absolutely soft-lock your game if you’re being stupid. If you’re radiation free, or at least not suffering from radiation sickness when you finish in the glow, you should be fine to just leave and get your rewards from the brotherhood.
5.) Saving - Save often, and save in different save slots. Have a different save for every location you find. Have a separate save slot for when you’re just wandering around. You have about 10 save slots, use all of them. You will mess up and not realize it, so it’s always good to only have to reset about an hour of progress, rather than 3 hours.
6.) Fallout 2 - Download and install the Restoration Project patch.
Last time I replayed FO1 I used the Fallout Et Tu mod that ports the entire game to the FO2 engine with all its QoL improvements. However the infinite money trick in the Hub doesn't work with the new gambling mechanics from 2. Gambling is a useless skill in 2. You need 100+ to ensure you win the slots but they have limited money.
@@AgusSkywalker Yeah they nerfed it too hard, but it's still usable. It's the easiest way of getting 100k for advanced implants late game if you don't want to farm bootleggers caves.
@@1thevm1 yeah, but in FO1 you only needed around 60%, in FO2 you need over 100%, that's 2-3 more levels wasted on that.
And you can't use it everywhere. Only Redding and New Reno, because in The Den for example you have the craps tables that aren't affected by luck.
Thank you so much bro. This is such amazing advice.
@@AgusSkywalker Yea but you can still annihilate the Den gun merchants and the Slavers guild with little guilt or impact on anyone's opinion, and take over Lara's gangs hideout to store it all till you can sell if off or get the car. Though thats a trip to Gecko regardless.
Deadass you are becoming one of my favorite RUclipsrs. I don’t if it’s the delivery or the tone of your voice but you are effortlessly funny
There are dedicated sidequests, they appear in your pip-boy. Killing the scorpions is one of them, you get a bunch of xp for completing it and I think Aradesh gives you some kind of reward as well
No aradesh dont give you any reward for killing the radscorpions.
The scorpion stinging you and immediately cutting to your dead skeleton fucking floored me
Speaking of quests, in Fallout 2 some of them allow you to negotiate the terms of your reward to the point of stripping the quest giver naked, sometimes literally. For instance, there's a woman who asks you to bail out her husband, and if you're a really scummy dude, you can demand that she sleeps with you right in front of her family, and since she has no choice, she'll do it, cursing and swearing at you the whole time. It's great.
conversely, as a female character, you can play as whore of the wastes

Hey Kelski, regarding your plans for Fallout New Vegas:
FONV is pretty much a direct sequel to Fallout 2 (which is a direct sequel to Fallout 1).
While you can (and will) enjoy FONV on its own, you get a lot more out of it if you know where some of the characters and factions are coming from.
So I'd recommend you playing Fallout 1 and 2, if not before New Vegas, then maybe concurrently, alternating between 2D and 3D. Even if you do it on your own time, off-stream. (FO3 not required as it takes place on the east coast instead of the west coast.)
Either way, love your content, stay awesome!
I've got to second this, after all, you've gone through first Fallout, why not second Fallout?

Really glad when someone recognizes that the parts that make it rough around the edges, that make it clunky, the design choices that are intentionally not designed for new players? Are also the things that make it awesome.
Oh man that manual was gorgeous. I ended up getting fallout while on a class trip to DC, bunch of other kids were into fallout, spent a lot of my free time poring over the manual which was genuinely entertaining to read because it just built so much lore up on its own. Was great when 3 came out, when I realized I'd stood in the same spot in real life as I was in-game at the national library.

I believe you're playing the Steam Version. It removed children NPCs(and thus the Childkiller perk) and made the game easier by removing the second time-limit.
In Fallout 1 it's not a big deal, but 2 got censored hard and it causes problems, I'd play the CD version for 2. Or play Tactics first.
I believe you can just mod it back in. However, as you said, it's only impactful in Fallout 2. Fallout 1 doesn't suffer from this in any meaningful way.
@@enricofermi3471 It can actually make using the Red Ryder a lot harder as all the kids in Shady Sands have BB guns with ammo and that's easily the best source
In fallout 2, it basically prevents you from progressing normally in the game, because the regular progression involves a kid at some point, forcing you into a much more convoluted method to progress.
As a 26 yr old who had their nostalgic run through the classic fallouts a few years ago, I have to say, you’ve embarked upon a wonderful journey that is truly timeless. Some people neg it for its rushed issues but if you can get the fan patch for fallout 2 to fix the breaking bugs, it’s just a completely amplified experience of fallout 1.

This video is a true testament to the importance of critical lens when forming an opinion. Depending on one's perspective, glaring flaws and "jank", for lack of a better word, can either break the experience, or somehow actually *enhance* it.
For me, this game is unplayable. I have tried numerous times to get into it, and I find the systems at play as impenetrable as concrete. So it's nice to see that the exact same issues that stop me from enjoying a game can serve as motivation to keep playing for others. Video games are awesome.

Been interested in dipping a toe in the fallout series and, while I have Fallout 4 already thanks to PS+, the first game seems far more interesting.

1:40 "I never played it, you see I grew up in the Skyrim era"
Quite the inverse of me then : I grew up in the 90's and I never played Skirim, but I played Fallout 1 upon release and speaking of Skirim I'm still mad at Bethesda for making "Oblivion/Skyrim in the wasteland" out of the Fallout IP.
My man, this video's gold. I totally lost my shit at 10:30. Comedy gold, and I hope to find more like this in your channel. New sub
Fallout 1 and 2 were such huge parts of my teen years. I adore this game, and the idea of new players discovering them also makes me happy. I wish they could be remastered, though.
Some of the details in old fallout in general is amazingly funny like in fo2 theres a low intelligence guy in the starting town that guards the Brahman but it you also have low intelligence his dialog becomes the most sophisticated and well versed out of any npc in the game
The production value you put in these videos is 11/10 ❤
And those 'Dead vault dweller' popups you sprinkled in the video are just too funny.
Thanks for the review, i felt fully engaged and look forward to another fallout video, but only if it doesn't burn you out!
I wouldn't want you to fall out
Brilliant 👍. Thanks for the trip back
10:41 Yes.....I felt like i was going blind just staring at the screen🤣
