fo2>fo1
if you disagree you're wrong idc

a 20 hour long game is basically a tech demo

I have to agree. As much as I loved FO1, FO2 took it to another level, no comparison for me regardless of the arguments constructed here.

The perfect example was Boyarsky's(?) comment on it not being political and a large part of the team rebelled, @Roguey would remember the specifics better than me.

Meh. Fallout 2 is an incredibly unfinished, half-baked game if we're talking vanilla. Unfinished or cut content all around (like Sulik's quest for example). With content restoration mods, it's great, but as vanilla, it really isn't on par with Fallout 1, by the pure virtue of Fallout 1 being in a finished state.

FO1? Finished? The game where entire endings for towns are unavailable due to bugs and unimplemented content? Yeah I'd have a hard time picking which one was less complete.

It's been a while since I played FO1, but I don't recall it smacking me over the head with unfinished plot hooks in the first town I visit.

The cannibal Doctor quest.

Its even funnier once you remember the sole reason why theres no good ending for the followers in fo1 is due to the fact the questline about spying on the followers isnt actually complete, due to the game being released in an unfinished state

Agatha is still referenced by dialogues in Shady Sands, who was cut.

I guess I don't remember FO1 that well then. Oh well. Guess both games should only be played with content restoration mods.

Bethesda with their NuFallout can't write a villain like this. Also Tony Jay's voice is just.... GLORIOUS.

The real sequel to Fallout 1 is Arcanum. You know it in your heart. Accept the truth and be enlightened.

arcanum was too influenced by the IE games

Both Fallout and Arcanum would have been better games if they had used the GURPS rules system.

Bashing the Fallout1 fanbois is an useless endeavour at the moment.

We can beat them black and blue over their heads with plot analysis, writing analysis, quest analysis, gameplay etc... ANYTHING we can think of and near at hand. Any issue. Voice acting? 1st citizen Lynnette can drive any gamer to high blood pressure just from the tiny screentime she has. Nice male VA? Marcus, Hakunin the list goes on... Lieutenant is nothing compare to the glorious screaming of Sgt Arch Dornan.

But what can you do when they can bring out nothing good to the table yet KEEP saying Fallout 1 is better? Noone blinder than ones refuse to see and noone deafer than ones refuse to hear~

Yeah and on top of that you can't get the good Hub ending w/o mods either. So that's two major settlements with bugged/incomplete endings.

this is a very brave and courageous post.

a super insightful thought that no one has ever had before. amazing job OP

And it ended up being inferior to both, marvelous

Based. Ignorance is not something you can fight against

Arcanum is the best CRPG ever made and anyone who disagrees is wrong.

Even the people who claim fallout 1 is better admit they played it far less.

No. Fallout 2 was much better, then you played it so much (because it was so good) and you eventually got sick of it. You remember much less of fallout 1 because you played it less, therefore, it wasn't as good. But you don't remember every bad thing about it.

Also, there's far more internet talk about fallout 2 than fallout 1, so every little nitpick is well documented.

Still, that starting dungeon sucked in FO2. So bad.

What the fuck? 1 is way comfier to replay. It's the only one I'll fire up. What a strange argument, putting words into FO1 fans's mouths.

Anyway, it's time to accept your Lord and Savior, Arcanum. The fact that cretin can't see the glory of it means we can safely discard his stupid thread.

Arcanum is a meme, even the people who love it still hate to play it.
