Über das Spiel

Fallout? 2 is the sequel to the critically acclaimed game that took RPG'ing out of the dungeons and into a dynamic, apocalyptic retro-future.

It's been 80 long years since your ancestors trod across the wastelands. As you search for the Garden of Eden Creation Kit to save your primitive village, your path is strewn with crippling radiation, megalomaniac mutants, and a relentless stream of lies, deceit and treachery. You begin to wonder if anyone really stands to gain anything from this brave new world.

Mastering your character's skills and traits for survival, Fallout? 2 will challenge you to endure in a post-nuclear world whose future withers with every passing moment...

Das Gleiche wie beim ersten Teil! Muss man mögen aber, wenn das der Fall ist, ziemlich geiles Game. Ich selber konnte am Anfang nicht viel mit dem Spiel anfangen bzw. mit dem 1 und 2 Teil. Nach einigen malen anzocken hatte es mich denn aber doch gepackt.

love this game. the depth of dialogue is unmatched, and it's genuinely amazing how expansive this nearly 25 year old game is. one thing i think the black isle fallout games did better than any of the ones that came after is allow the player to be as evil as they want. there is some seriously dark stuff you can do in this game, far exceeding blowing up megaton or selling arcade into slavery. selling your companions into slavery is a baseline feature in this game, and you can become a slaver beyond that. if you're patient enough to get past the admittedly very difficult early game, what you end up finding is a CRPG that defined its generation of gaming. strongly recommend. you can become a porn star as well, so that's cool.

I could go back and forth forever on whether this or New Vegas is the best Fallout game. For now, I'll go with this.

Contrary to what a lot of other people will say, I actually quite like the visual style of Fallout 1 and 2 (yes, even those weird-looking talking heads, which I personally find to be charming in a strange way). The actual gameplay is also not nearly as bad as some would have you believe. The combat is surprisingly engaging, and the occasional randomness of it means you'll never really know what to expect going into a fight.

But of course, the real reason why Fallout 2 is a masterpiece of the RPG genre is the writing. This game has possibly the best written dialogue of any I've ever played, and the few bits of actual spoken dialogue are fantastic. The main story is engaging the whole way through, and there are so many memorable side quests. Also, this game is absolutely hilarious. There are so many absurd situations and characters, stupid jokes, and fourth-wall breaks. Worth the price of admission for just that alone.

One thing to note is that this game (and the original too) don't like to hold your hand. You're expected to solve problems and complete quests without map markers or exact directions, which I understand is definitely not for everyone, but I personally cannot get enough of it.

If you like New Vegas, and don't have a problem with the dated graphics and gameplay, please do yourself a favor and play Fallout 2 (but not before playing the first one).

Best Fallout game i ever played i use to think the old Fallouts and just old games in general would be trash but this game really made me realize what it was like to be a gamer in the 90s and how modern games are starting to be way to easy to go from zero to hero would highly recommend anyone who has not played to give it a go

Fallout 2 is the sequel to the beloved, Fallout Collection. These 2 special games have one thing in common, being different. When Fallout 1 released, it was praised for it's graphics and it's storytelling. Fast forward to Dec. 1, 1998, awaits the long awaited, Fallout 2. This game was something that critics thought to be better than the original as they are side by side when you try to compare it, but there is something that made the game better and that is... Frank Horrigan. My boy Frank here, is going to kick your ass until you beat the hell out of him, so you better get ready for that one final battle. I personally had to restart a dozen times since my save kept on crashing so that really says a lot on what position I was in. I did eventually beat the game and was extremely excited to see what the end game content is. But there is not end game content as the game expects you to be done with it already. There are some nods to you and how you saved the U.S, but it is still boots to the ground Fallout experience. Have fun!

Sincerely, Thumbs Up Doctor

Amazing sequel of a groundbreaking RPG set in retro futuristic post apocalyptic USA. Game is improved and extended in almost all categories, it has: more quests; expanded arsenal; more places to explore; improved companions control; a lot of interesting characters; more encounters; some gameplay improvements. Major negative factor is technical problems, bugs and crashes, even after installing unofficial patch I have a lot of problems and cherry on a cake I get all my 10 saves corrupted for no apparent reason (so do manual backup often). Overall it is a great game, it's very similar to the first one, so if you don't like it I don't recommend trying this one.

Pros:
- Variety of interesting and helpful companions;
- Awesome soundtrack and voice acting;
- Intricate storyline;
- Diverse SPECIAL system;
- Gory combat;
- Great apocalyptic atmosphere;
- Humorous;
- A lot of interesting lore;
- Awesome arsenal;
- Great enemy variety;
- Some cool mods;
- Cool art style;
- A lot of interesting factions;

Cons:
- Bugs and crashes;
- Very steep difficulty curve;
- Companions still block your movement (ea least now game has command for moving them out);
- Not enough graphical improvements in visual design;
- Combat can get repetitive;

Fallout & Fallout 2 are amazing games, and if you dont mind isometric views and turn based combat, have aged pretty well all things considered. If you liked Fallout 3-4 and/or New Vegas, I implore you to give these two games a try. They represent what Fallout truly is.

The only downside to playing this game is that it will probably make Fallout 3 and 4 way less enjoyable. The writing is unparalleled and its core RPG elements are both challenging and rewarding. I played over 100 hours of Fallout 4 and don't remember any of it, while I'm constantly irritating (read: regaling) my friends with anecdotes from this,

If you can get used to its dated presentation, definitely play this!

My play time on Steam is barely a fraction of how much I've actually played this game. I originally bought this and Fallout 1 in a combo pack back in 2000, maybe? And since then I have played both countless times, but this one just does everything right for me. Great story, great characters, great gameplay, there really is very little to complain about here. And the easter eggs are always entertaining, my favorite being the Bridge of Death from Monty Python, oh, and the Goonies reference in the bottom of the well. And the replay value is astounding. I mean, I've played through this at least once a year, every year, for twenty years. I'm sure nostalgia plays a big role in my love for it, but I believe a new player could love it equally. If you're trying to spice things up on your next play through try playing with a very dumb character. The dialogue becomes hilarious and completing quests becomes quite different in many cases. You can really tell that the developers loved, and had fun making, this game. Here I am at 36, 21 years after playing this game for the first time, starting another play through. I know how it starts, how it ends, and basically everything in between, but I still love it the same.
There is an unofficial patch, which adds support for modern displays among other things, and the Restoration Project, that adds back in a lot of things that were cut from the original release.

I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose... Vault City.


Too Long; Didn't Read: Fallout 2 feels very familiar, with little changes to how the game is played. But the story told is far more adventurous, with the size of the world being significantly larger than the previous game.
Fallout 2 can be picked up by a newcomer to the series, thanks to a very basic tutorial and the lack of a time limit. I would very much recommend this entry in the series, especially to RPG fans.

????️The Gameplay????


It seems Fallout 2’s main priority is to create a larger wasteland with a huge cast of memorable characters. As such, most of the changes to the gameplay are quality of life and convenience, such as being allowed to skip random encounters, a button to loot everything from a container, etc.

Having left the character creator, exploration and combat almost completely untouched, Fallout 2 may look more like an expansion of its predecessor, rather than a true sequel. But by forcing the player to step out of their comfort zone and use all of the skills and mechanics offered, the game instead fixes the few issues I had with the first game and presents the wasteland in a whole new light.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2515212645
Fallout’s biggest problem was the stagnant combat. However, the variety of ways you could interact with its people, places and objects was where the gameplay shined, with it offering a variety of ways to play, as well as reward creative thinking. The combat felt like it lacked any diversity in the first game. This has been addressed by limiting your options of attack at the beginning, so you learn to appreciate the variety of playstyles provided later.

The first hour of gameplay leaves the player with only a spear and their bare hands. Since most returning players would have most likely chosen guns as their primary skill, suddenly the first hour of the game is significantly more difficult, with the first gun you come across only able to fire once before needing to be reloaded.

This heightened difficulty is very much welcome. Fallout 2 does have a tutorial of sorts, with the first area being a mandatory temple that forces you to use specific skills and items to progress, something sorely missing from the first game.

But after that, you are left to your own devices. You must talk to every character, search every nook and cranny, and remember any and all information you are told in order to progress the story. Combat is frequent and coupled with the steep prices of guns and ammunition, Fallout 2 is far less forgiving than its predecessor.

Exploring the wasteland has been made purposefully more tedious, as the map is bigger with major locations being more spread out. This has you scrounging up what little cash you have to travel with caravans and makes the prospect of unlocking a car that halves travel time more enticing.

The previous game might have just asked you to use your repair skill to get the car in working order. But Fallout 2 instead has you steal, scavenge, barter, or create the parts necessary to get the car to work, as well as upgrade it.

This trick of an alluring upgrade or weapon requiring the hunt of a specific item is used many times and encourages players to explore and engage with the wasteland far more than usual, as it has you guess what the true value of the items you come across are, as well as forcing you to use skills you might have otherwise neglected.

Well-planned progression really helps make each playthrough of Fallout 2 more unique. A character who has always used their fists to solve problems is going to start out better than a nerd with an obsession with guns, but ultimately brawn for brains is going to have to adapt more to the wasteland as the game progresses.

Fallout 2 is a delight to play just like its predecessor, but the lessons learned from making the first game have made the experience even better this time around. I never felt truly comfortable in this version of the wasteland, unlike the first game where I had acquired enough armaments and health kits to feel somewhat secure. In this depiction of the wasteland, all the wealth and weaponry you acquired means nothing, as a new challenge is waiting around every corner.

????The Story & Presentation????


You play as the Chosen One, a descendant of your character from Fallout. The tribe you live in is dying due to sick children, dying livestock and poor crops. You are tasked with finding Vault 13, which contains a device called the “Garden of Eden Creation Kit”. It is said this device can give life to the dead wasteland and save your village.

Unlike its predecessor, there is no actual time limit, with only the occasional reminder of your quest sent from your tribe. This removes the slight paranoia of the first game that any side quest might mean the difference between overwhelming success and an instant game over, and as such allows you to see far more of the content this time around.

The story of Fallout 2 is just as good as the first, with interesting locations inhabited by well written characters. But the signature bleak and oppressive atmosphere of the first game has been notably toned down, with a camp, action movie style replacing it in this entry. While I do prefer the more dystopian and pessimistic world of Fallout, the charm of Fallout 2’s humour left me smiling with glee.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2516184609
This new style also helps make the game feel far grander in its story. Whereas the first game would have you backtrack to certain locations and was quite self-contained, Fallout 2 is far more experimental, having way more locations, all of which are incredibly varied and unique, as opposed to the constant slums and scrap heaps of the first game.

The long-dead, retro-futuristic America of yesterday still looks great thanks to the stellar art direction still present in this sequel. The 156 years of post-nuclear wasteland have not been kind, with old war buildings and adverts in an even worse condition than before.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2516183417
Character portraits return, and this time most of the companions in the game have portraits as well, making them truly feel like friends at your side or opportunists ready to backstab you at any moment.

????Graphics & Soundtrack????


Graphically, Fallout 2 is the same as the first game, having aged well and giving everything in the world a detailed and weathered look. 80 years may have passed since the first game took place, but the wasteland still looks as desolate and hopeless as ever.

The soundtrack from the first game returns, with some new tracks to help characterize the wild and wonderful new locations, as well as help believably age some recognizable landmarks from the first game. The music still helps add so much to the oppressive atmosphere of the wasteland.

????Performance & Bugs????


Fallout 2 is plagued with bugs. Content my character should have seen was barred to me due to scripting errors, and I had to revert to previous saves on occasion as progression was halted by the game refusing to load important story scenes. One persistent bug was that playing for longer than half an hour meant my game would occasionally slow to the speed of a PowerPoint presentation. All I could do to fix it was restarting the game.

✔️Final Score & Comments????


I would give Fallout 2 a 9/10. Its familiar controls and bold new story help make the second wasteland adventure feel original but at the same time consistent with the first.
What lets the game down is the broken content and constant glitches, which ruin what is otherwise an immersive RPG experience.

One of the best RPGs I've ever played, and definitely my favourite. The age does show, and it's quite a learning curve at first, but when you're past that you'll find yourself sinking in 40 hours when you should be doing your dissertation.

Don't be fooled by the great graphics of the later games. in my opinion, this is still the best game in the Fallout Franchise. If you go to the site , you will find the Fallout Restoration Project, which basically works like a DLC. This adds new areas in the game, as well as different ways to finnish the main quest and additional quests. It is areas that were planned for the orriginal game, but were cut due to time constraints and space available on the instalation disks. They didn't have DVD disks available when this game was first released. Best of all, it is compatible with both the original, as well as the steam version of the game.

Enjoy!.

It is a good fallout game but Is hard to get the Hang of. It is the hardest fallout game for sure you need to remember to save after every encounter and avoid getting yourself in to trouble. Overall it has a great story ( it gives you a good idea what happens between fallout 1 and 2 in the game Manual )and lots of cool Easter-eggs but the bugs that can happen loading the game up dose take the fun out of it

At first, this game infuriated me to no end. Without a tutorial, I was blind. I couldn't figure out how anything worked. But once I figured out everything, combat and other things became really satisfying to pull off. The game will force you to think and it's often downright merciless, but once you clear the learning wall, things get ever so slightly better. I've yet to beat the game so I might update this review in the future.

I went to crappy looking town and bought hooker for 800$
I was not satisfied, so I shot her brains out with my trusty Desert Eagle.
Owner of that place got pretty mad at me and started throwing punches, so I started doing kicks at his groin until he collapsed at the floor and was not able to move anymore.
Then I took my money back and went outside.
I took some drugs and booze and went on killing spree, killing not just the men but women and children too.
Nobody gave shit about me shooting people, until I went and shot some guy in military gear.
After that I got around 20 guys with guns blazing at me.
My character was wearing some cool ass purple robes and was just dodging bullets like Neo from Matrix.
I was able to kill half of them military guys, until I ran out of bullets, then I got half of my chest blown off by shotgun.

The original Fallout games are two of the most highly acclaimed and beloved RPG games ever made. In older RPG fan circles in particular, these games are revered. As a classic RPG fan myself, I couldn't possibly dissent. But arguably, those games are perhaps somewhat more important to me than they are to most for an additional reason. You see, the original Fallout game is what turned me into an RPG fan. At the time I was still a relative newcomer to the PC gaming world. Used to playing games like Doom or Warcraft, when I stumbled upon the original Fallout's demo. I tried it out and was immediately captivated. I quickly bought the first game and was absolutely engrossed in it. By the time the second game was released I was already an RPG fan and naturally, I was ecstatic to get my hands on a sequel.

Fallout 2 did not disappoint. Indeed it heavily reinforced my burgeoning fascination with the genre. The two games were extremely similar. They were released only a year apart. They used effectively the same engine, with only minor tweaks. They played virtually the same way, had almost the same model pool and many of the same weapons/items. Yet, they were also very different. Whereas the original focused on delivering a tight story, with a clearly defined progression and a relatively serious tone, the sequel was a rather chaotic pastiche of the original with a much looser progression, a less serious, though still quite adult, tone and a much more overt, darkly satirical side. Truly some of the snappiest, most snarky lines in gaming have been written for Fallout 2. After experiencing the bleakness of the original, a sequel that offered much more of the same great gameplay, but at the same time didn't hesitate to twist and poke fun at its dark world, was just what I needed.

You start on the fringes of post-apocalyptic California, as a member of a primitive tribe that is in dire straits due to a drought. After being tested in a much-maligned, obligatory tutorial level, you are named the chosen one of your tribe and tasked with travelling to the more civilized places of the world in search of technology that will save your people. Of course to the rest of the world that now is opening up before you, your title or the justness of your cause mean nothing. To them, you are just a filthy tribal barely worth a second look, unless, of course, you can be of use to them somehow. This allows the game to poke fun at the chosen one trope, while still playing it mostly straight. Mostly. This meta approach, coupled with lots of leaning on, if not outright breaking, the fourth wall is an integral part of the game's DNA.

It has been pointed out that the main story itself is not particularly strong, especially compared to the first game. Indeed, after you are given your mission and start exploring the wasteland, it is difficult to maintain focus. At best, the main story provides a general direction to follow early on, but after a point even that disappears. This is further reinforced by the lack of any hard time limit. The most flawed part is arguably the final section. It appears to be very rushed and it's one of the few areas where the attempt to follow the example set by the first game falls flat. I'm referring of course to the diplomatic response to the main villain's plans. In the first game, employing diplomacy to resolve the final conflict was gradually built and convincing, indeed it was stellarly executed. Here, it seems like having it as an option was a tick on some checklist. Half-baked, if not outright nonsensical. And only partly effective anyway.

Nevertheless, the main story is hardly at the center of what makes Fallout 2 great. The true highlight of the game is the world that it invites you to explore. The locations that you can visit are very diverse, perhaps even thematically inconsistent, but always compelling. They all showcase the different ways that people have coped with the apocalypse. How they interact with one another. How they are following different government types. From anarchy, to liberal democracy, all the way to technofascism. This allows the game to engage in quite some social commentary. The apartheid state of Vault City being a great example. An important aspect is that the game doesn't usually force you to pick a side, this is something of a lost art these days. The game doesn't force an opinion on what it's showing you. Even when it skewers some ideology with sarcasm, it still leaves it to the player to draw conclusions.

The world is fairly reactive, offering lots of feedback to player choice via its many interesting and well-written subplots. They range from simpler sublots like the Ghost Farm, to more complex ones like the Gecko Power Plant, all the way to a sublot complex enough that it could easily supplant the main plot. Indeed, many a game would wish they had a main plot this good. It is a 3-way power struggle between the leading political entities of the region over trade. The game goes to lengths to explore the realities of each with flair. It allows the player to engage with all three powers but whether they will choose to take a side, or even if they will be given the chance to do so, it's all entirely optional and often a reaction to previous choice.

When Fallout 2 launched, it was really buggy. There was also lots of cut content, much of it described in design documents but not in the game. Certainly a result of how quickly the game was developed. None of this deterred me at the time of course, but I am certainly happy for the numerous patches that followed. Unfortunately, so numerous were those issues that by the time the developer went out of business, though in a much better shape there was still lots to be done. Enter the fans. Thankfully, Fallout 2 has a dedicated community that has given us unofficial patches and even a mod that restores cut content. I recommend checking all that out. Particularly since Bethesda, in their supreme laziness, have done nothing for this game, other than bundling it with some mods and selling it.

Fallout 2 is probably my favourite game of all time. For many years, I would do a full run of the game at least once a year, as sort of a ritual. After a point, always with the Restoration Project installed. Work and the vagaries of adult life haven't allowed me to maintain that in recent years, but I will still do a full run from time to time and it always feels fresh. For fans of old-school RPGs that somehow haven't played this, I can't recommend it enough. For newer players, I'd recommend trying the first Fallout and then this one, emulating my journey with this series. Either way, this is indeed one of the crown jewels of the video game medium and is worth experiencing one way or another.

So imagine meeting one of the most amazing girls in the world.
Things are great, but it ends, and it's painful and then you meet the greatest girl in the world, just someone you adore and want and she wants to be friends then she moves on with her life and says it's not gonna work out.
And then you have a long wait before someone new comes along. Like almost 10 years.
And suddenly you find love again. She's also great, but things aren't 100% right, but man it's nice to see someone again.

But she's not that second girl. You can't stop thinking about her.
And you let go because girl 3 doesn't move you with the music of creation, and you probably break her heart and maybe wish you didn't feel like a monster, but it's worse if you stayed, stringing her on.
And you fear the Lord's finished with you, like there's no good options left.
10 years, you're not getting younger.
And so you just hold on, going to Mass, celebrating and worshiping Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. And it hurts, but deep down you know and feel God doesn't really owe you anything. But it's not living, you feel nothing, no matter those you help and give aid to. The void isn't filled, and the Lord keeps it empty for some reason.
You pray and hope that this isn't the end of your story, but the cynical side of you just knows it's over.

I'm sorry, I lost my train of thought. This game's pretty good. Funny. Witty. Buy it. 10/10

Often considered the best game of the Fallout franchise by many fans, Fallout 2 is a Post Nuclear Role Playing Game and manages to take everything that made its predecessor awesome, while adding many features, expending the universe, continuing the story and adding countless locations, factions and new weapons.

The combat system, though sometimes very luck-dependent, is very satisfying and tactical.. and there is a lot of pleasure to have from it.

But the most fun to have from this game is not from the combat system, rather from its deep story, universe and atmosphere. The world has been devastated by the bombs, civilization has found its way back. From the newly born New California Republic, to the charming city of Klamath, there is so much to do.

The game sincerely and openly allows you to roleplay in any way you want. You can be a gangster, a boxer, an NCR ranger, a slaver, a hunter.. anything! Hell, you can even be a pornstar in this game. There are many endings per city and factions and choices DO matter in this game!

For those who played Fallout: New Vegas, FNV is pretty much the sequel to Fallout 2 and you will find a lot of things that are similar and you will see how loyal New Vegas is to its predecessor. As for those who are new to the Fallout franchise, I would suggest you first start with New Vegas or Fallout 3, as the first two games can be very difficult to get good at, and you might wanna get into the Fallout universe first!


I love it and 100% recommend it!

It has been a joy replaying it so many years later (played it last time more than a decade ago!) and remembering why it is such a special game. The amount of role play freedom is astounding and an embarrassment for most modern RPGs. Sometimes I prefere the simplicity and straightforwardness of the first Fallout, dome other times I prefer the story of New Vegas, but one this is for sure, this is a fantastic trilogy of games.

Let me just say, I enjoy the classic Fallouts. They're much more of an RPG than the new Fallouts. The role-playing potential is pretty good, and the dialogue is hilarious. It took everything that made the first game good and improved on it. Your choices really do matter in this game. You can kill everyone in a town (no essential NPCs, If someone annoys you, you can kill them). There's a reputation and karma system (looking at you F4). The writing and depth to the story and characters is insane. You can choose multiple ways to approach a situation.

However, this game isn't for people who dislike unforgiving, punishing combat. It can be slow and clunky (which is understandable, since it's a turn-based RPG). Even on the default difficulty, enemies can randomly crit you and kill you when you're in full power armor. This is not a game for casual gamers who just want to knock out a game in a few hours or so.
When I say the combat and encounters are unforgiving, I mean it. If you're lower level and have lower combat and outdoorsman skills, you will run into encounters constantly that will probably result in death (Enclave patrols, anyone)?
Like I said before, the gameplay is very slow and clunky and can drag on for a while especially at the beginning. There isn't a ton of info on what you can do and where you can go. It doesn't hold your hand.

All of the skills aren't made equal. There are some that you may not ever use or use very little, like Throwing, Gambling, or Traps. Skill and perk progression is pretty slow, although it can be argued that it should be slow to not make the game too easy. Some traits are downright terrible like Kamikaze, Jinxed, Good-Natured, etc. In terms of perks, they're pretty damn good and balanced. Although, I will say Sniper is pretty broken with a high luck stat and a burst weapon. Other perks are of negligible benefit like Cult of Personality (in fact I think it's bugged in the vanilla game), Pathfinder, Presence, Scout, Snakeater, while others are practically essential like Quick Pockets and Awareness.

The game also suffers from a fair amount of bugs like useless perks, save corruption, crashes, and numerous scripting bugs. You can even lose your companions by leaving them in an old map/cell that gets replaced with a new one after a quest. Some exploits exist that can break the game, usually infinite xp bugs. For this reason, I recommend the Unofficial Patch that is bundled with the Restoration Project, although you can get the patch by itself.

One notable quirk of AI behavior is that companions will never take into account of what is in front of them when attacking, so if you give them a burst weapon they WILL kill you with it. So never give them burst weapons.

One last thing that I'm not a huge fan of but can appreciate at times, is the huge amount of pop culture references. There are references from Monty Python to Red Dawn to Star Trek and more.

Sorry for the essay and I doubt people would put much stock in this review, but overall I recommend the game. If you're a fallout fan who has played the newer games I would still recommend this one, as well if you're a fan of classic isometric RPGs and the post-apocalyptic setting. It does take a little bit of extra work to get it optimized to run on modern machines, though (if you're not buying it through Steam or GOG).

Pure brilliance. Like Fallout 1, the writing is top-tier and the humour is excellent. However, also like Fallout 1, the combat is extraordinarily tedious and annoying. I played on normal and the outcome of almost every battle was determined by whether I crit first or my enemy crit first. To be frank I'd recommend playing on easy to alleviate this frustration, as this isn't a game you play for the combat, it's a game you play for the story.

It is a sad truth that a 20+ year old game can still have a better story, depth and character writing than its most recent predecessor. Don't waste your time and money on the pure junk mobile game that is known as Fallout76. It's shockingly depressing how much soul and creativity a bunch of vampiric suits can suck out of a franchise. RIP Fallout, your amazing legacy will live on in your better, earlier creations.

PS The team that is working on Fallout76 has had ZERO exp doing any AAA title, their last project before being bought out and assigned to F76 was a mobile game with a focus on micro transactions. Google Battlecry studios if you don't believe me.

Good game, but the mechanics and visuals didn't age well. When people talk about video games not holding your hand tutorial wise this may be what they're imagining but in all honesty as someone who didn't grow up playing these classics the lack of such a guide grew much more frustration rather than enjoyment in figuring out things for myself.

I am 11 hours in, half of my playtime in fallout 1, and whereas in fallout 1 I was about halfway done in 11 hours, I can tell I am far, far, far from beating the main quest in fallout 2. This game does a great job of making me feel like the people matter in towns, more so than fallout 1 in my opinion, and that makes me want to do quests for them because i think i should, not because i want more xp, or because there is some good loot in the quest. When i started this game I thought I could tell it would be worse than 1. After playing it, that has become so, so, so obviously false. If you liked fallout 1, you will love fallout 2.

This is already my third paid copy of what I consider the best RPG of all time. For me it is also the best computer game of all time. Nothing else comes even close. I had played Fallout 1 before in 1997 and when Fallout 2 was released one year later it just blew me away. The atmosphere of this game is unsurpassed. The soundtrack, the characters, the skill system, places and stories, weapons and armor, everything has so much depth and flair to it, it's really one of a kind. Granted the graphics and user interface show their age after 20 years, but the classic Fallout games are the *only* two games that I played through more than 30 times each and that are branded into my memory forever. I'll hate Bethesda until the end of time for cannibalizing my all-time favorite gaming franchise. We don't need another lifeless, uninspired abomination of a first person shooter running on an engine with a core as old as the original games. Remaster this magnificent piece of a game instead that is Fallout 2! Thanks.

Pure and simple dear Steamers. I have cried out of happiness once i bought this jewel,tidal wave of memories and emotions splashed me right in a face. Some games are meant to last for eternity,for being a pure work of an art. This is definitely one of them(along with first Fallout of course). I am reluctant,when it comes to writing a review of any game,BUT THIS MASTERPIECE MADE ONE INTROVERT GUY to write one. That's how good this game is.

If your going to play Fallout 2, or Fallout 1, this is very important. ALWAYS F*CKING SAVE. I cannot tell you the amount of times I have lost my mind when I get that damn stupid error screen telling my that the save file is corrupt and the game cannot work.

That being said, Fallout 2 is an amazing game. Just like the first game, Fallout 2 sees you playing as an apocalyptic wanderer, braving the outside world. Except instead of playing as a vault dweller, you play as an adventurer who is descended from the first game's protagonist. You get to make your character, decide their skills and then go of into the wasteland in search of the Garden of Eden Creation Kit (G.E.C.K.) for your village Arroyo. As you travel through the land, you find a variety of newcomers to the Fallout franchise, such as the Enclave, who are the remnants of the old world government, as well as meeting old factions like the Brotherhood of Steel and the New California Republic. The game is great, and a tremendous amount of fun to play, even if the gameplay is sometimes a bit slow. However, just remember to save often, and if you have a spare drive, maybe just copy your files onto it. Nothing ruins a great game like having to play the same parts over and over again because your STUPID SAVE FILE GOT CORRUPTED!

They just don't make 'em like they used to anymore. Fallout 2 is a classic master piece!

I recommend at least two runs: first vanilla, then with the restoration project. Personally I don't wanna switch back from the restoration project anymore.

Remember this is a product from the Past.
A Slow game, even when running.
Some improvement over the earlier Fallout One.
Bad graphics, clunky controls, poor item managements, few bugs here and there inbetween storyline triggers,
'should' be expected.

Deep collection of stories, adventure and lore of ' Fallout ' since the first episode.
The Chosen One,
a common thief, always looking into other's pocket, table and lockers,
all because of a small GECK case, embarks on a long and tiresome adventure,
constantly pocking into other's businesses, to be a 'hero', or a 'killer'.

Always make constant manual saves, and save scums, as
even the slightest wrong click, entering, armed or picking the wrong pocket, could ruin your progress.

Game gets extremely hard in the last ten percent, if one isn't prepared as a hoarder of ammo and heals.


In the process of replaying One, Two, and heading to Three next.
Enjoyed the Story,
if one is meticulous in following the lore.

After previously playing 1, 3, NV & 4 I can safely say Fallout 2 is easily my favourite.
It's the only one that I've started a second play through of after finishing and it actually makes me want to play through NV again.

Very fun classic RPG. I wish they still made more Fallout games like this... turn based.

I also love talking to NPCs... there are a lot of Easter Eggs and fun dialogues, and there's really a lot to do in many different ways, and so much to explore for such an old game.

I would definitely recommend it... it has a high replay value.

This is one of the best RPGs ever made.

The story in this game is god tier.

The combat doesn't feel that outdated. It's easy to pick up but it still remains fun , engaging and challenging many hours after the start of the game.

The only gripe I have with the Steam version of Fallout 2 is the fact that they censored some scenes, but that can easily be fixed by installing the Fallout 2 Restoration Project
(https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout2/mods/13).

The high resolution patch (https://falloutmods.fandom.com/wiki/Fallout_2_High_Resolution_Patch) is also highly recommended if you want to play this game properly in a higher resolution.

Overall , despite its age , this game is still entertaining.

In my ongoing and likely futile effort to write a Steam review for every game in my library (#365 out of 558)... it's time for Fallout 2.

First: do yourself a favor and get the GOG version instead, especially if you're running Windows 10, as the Steam version of Fallout 2 does not play nice with modern operating systems and tends to crash. Often.

Second: it's Fallout 2. You don't need to read reviews. This is one of the quintessential roleplaying games, and one of the defining games in the ever-popular post-apocalyptic genre. Fallout 2 differs a bit from the original game in that it leans a bit more heavily towards the absurd—and can even be campy at times—but it still does an excellent job retaining and furthering the spirit of the original. It's got everything you loved from the first Fallout, dialed up to eleven (for better or worse).

If you're brand new to the Fallout series, I'd strongly advise starting with the first game, as mechanically the two are very similar but the narrative of Fallout 2 is built largely on top of Fallout 1's story. Where Fallout was a post-apocalyptic roleplaying game, Fallout 2 charts new territory as a post-post-apocalyptic roleplaying game. Which is to say that it's less about dealing with the aftermath of the atomic war and more about constructing the new societies, states and cultures in this new, battered and broken world. Where subsequent Fallout sequels are chiefly concerned with the world's past, Fallout 2 (very rightly) concerns itself with the future.

Do keep in mind, however, that Fallout 2 was never a terribly pretty game even it its heyday, and even when it released its UI was fairly clumsy and combat fairly tedious. The visuals and mechanics serve largely as a vehicle for a very reactive sandbox RPG, and are not very well-polished. All the same, Fallout and Fallout 2 are both foundational classics of the genre. If you're fond of RPGs and haven't played Fallout 2, then you really ought to remedy that deficiency as soon as humanly possible.

I'm halfway through my first Play-though of this game. and Jesus fucking Christ. This has got to be the most lore packed Fallout games. If New Vegas had this amount of lore or world building it would be the best and I wouldn't be split between the 2 games. The Exposition is amazing and you have a choice on about everything that happens (cough.. unlike some fallout 4... cough). I'd highly recommend it if you're a fan of fallout and don't mind a change of gameplay to turn-based. I wish Bethesda would put as much love and care into their stories as interplay/black isle/obsidian does.

9.5/10. I never played the og fallout games up until now. I always thought the gameplay would be to out dated when in fact the gameplay is far different from any other game ive played and has its own unique feel. Fallout 2 is tied as best fallout game with fallout new vegas because the story, factions, companions towns and soundtrack are just so good. Dont do what i did and avoid fallout 2 for its graphics or gameplay because you will be missing out on playing the best rpg of all time -LarryGoldLemon
