Started playing it last year but lost track with other shit. Now I'll have to start over when I have time. It's on my #TODO list.

Completed Fallout 1 three times, Fallout 2 only once (San Francisco kills my desire to revisit the game).

*Certain Potato ex-communist prime minister from the 90s would question my manhood because of that. Only Potatoes will understand the joke.

It was one of those go-to games that I kept playing over and over as it was pretty new at the time, and there was a lot of depth for such a straightforward game, so I said 6-10 times, and in over half those runs. The only thing all runs have in common is siding with Gizmo. I really don't like Killian Darkwater. Sue me!

I read somewhere that in the original design doc Junktown only had a happy ending if the player sided with Gizmo (to subvert expectations), but developers cucked out and changed it.

Since my first contact with the franchise was Fallout 2, which I finished probably 3 times and played many more times without reaching endgame, I viewed Fallout 1 more as a proof of concept, smaller and shorter than the actual 'real' game. I finished it once, out of curiosity. Still prefer 2 though.

For me it was shooting the overseer. His idea of me corrupting people in he vault was true, but kicking me out will only create a culture that is antagonistic to the overseer, because their messiah saved them (and let's say, the overseer said I died, you're still going to have people who will want to come out inspired by me). He's just a prick, used me and then for drops me for a dumbass reason.
If he said "you're radiated, you're gonna give us aids or something, please leave" I wouldn't be upset. I probably did get nuclear corpus or something out in the wastes, and him expelling me because of that is reasonable.
Anyways, 20+ when I was a kid, about 3 as an adult. I confess, as a kid I didn't had a lot of games I played a lot, I just replayed games I liked.

Less times than I've finished Fallout 2. So like 3-4 times.

Interesting concept, but I'm sure that would have been mentioned in the Fallout Bible if it were true.

It's in Fallout Bible #9, interview with Jess Heinig:

Marketing decided at the last minute that we had to "reward good and punish bad," though, so the sequence was changed to its current incarnation.
Fuck marketing :negative:
