Fallout 2 is fulla proto-reddit humour imho. And the reason most people who've played glom onto Frank Horrigan, or Vault City, or infiltrating Navarro Oil Rig is if they tried to think too hard about some of the other bits, their overburdened cringe receptors would explode.
Go on, make me re-enact a scene from Monty Python again, see what happens fucker.
Umm actually it's one of the earliest games where you can get gay married, bet you feel dumb for calling it reddit and cringe now
spoiler
Please don't look up the particular as to how that happensI learned what a fluffer was by poisoning myself for a handful of caps in 2.
Fresh out of Monty Python scenes, at the moment.
Im anti Fallout 2 gang as well. The Golden Path is knowing only Fallout 1 and New Vegas are good
Tactics has its moments, but can hardly be called good
I am a poser and havent played it
that was my introduction to the franchise and let me say how dare you
maybe I was a bit harsh, it's good but not great
Tactics is a decent Jagged Alliance knock off. At least the first half.
The last half game is basically a logistics simulator for how much 50 cal ammo you can buy/loot/hoard versus how much you need to use to pass a level and/or kill enemies that if you drop them you'll get etc a bunch of 50 cal.
You have 2characters in the party that can use a browning 50 cal, the rest are support for them.
Pretty fun though.
yep fallout two is filled with nonsense meta jokes and unnecessary gory and sexual humor and scenarios.
Having played them recently I think Fallout 1 is better than 2. It's the right balance of cringe and much tighter story wise.
