The main issue I have with it is I am playing it on a 1080p monitor, at my desk, and EVERYTHING is so tiny. I went for the "purist" installation with no new content, but I"m wondering if I am regretting that decision if the other versions included some QoL changes.

I googled this and found out about the "Fallout FIXT" mod that fixes these types of problems. Tried to launch the steam version.instantly crashed with some error message. So I decided over the weekend I wanted to play Fallout 1 for real. Fallout 76 is finally okay after the Wastelanders update, but not even as good as 3 or 4. Fallout 4 was alright, but not as good as New Vegas. I played New Vegas when it came out and enjoyed it immensely. I could go into a heartfelt reminiscence about pretty much every title on this list, but no one wants to read that, so I'll just briefly say that Quake 2, The Elder Scrolls: Morrowind and Dishonored 1 and 2 are all well worth playing if you somehow missed them at the time.I'll admit that my first exposure to the Fallout Franchise was Fallout 3, and I enjoyed it, but bought and played a little bit of Fallout 1 and 2 but never got very far in either. The New Order and The New Colossus are absolutely fantastic reimaginings of the older games, with a gripping alternative future setting, over-the-top weaponry and precisely the right amount of ridiculous plot points to keep things interesting (yup, I'm thinking about that moment in The New Colossus. If you're a fan of the series but haven't played some of these titles, at a couple of quid apiece they're well worth picking up.įor something a little more recent, I've had a great time with the recent Wolfenstein releases. Fallout Tactics is a non-canon spinoff that's still well worth playing, with an option for real-time combat and a more streamlined storyline, while Fallout 3 and New Vegas showed that the leap to a first-person perspective in a 3D game world could work wonders.

Fallout 1 and 2 are literally my favourite games of all time, with witty dialogue, satisfying turn-based isometric combat and a postapocalyptic setting that spawned tons of sequels - some great, some not so great.
