The best Fallout

Many devout Fallout fans regard Fallout: New Vegas as one of the best entries in the series to date. Praised for its story, the game features a well-crafted narrative that has become ༒a staple for developer Obsidian Entertainment. Even though the franchise is known for being sandbox in nature, this one takes it to the next level.

The world feels alive and the freedom to explore the Mojave Desert however you want is second to none. All of the quests are extremely well-written and feel meani💝ngful, especially the side quests. Almost every quest has a branching path you can take that impact and changes the world in some way. Every playthrough is truly unique. Few games achieve the goal of creating a realistic and living breathing world, but this one succeeds in every way.

Furthermore, a lot of the best systems from Fallout 3 not only make a return but are improved upon. Gameplay wise there are ways to make almost every build viable, including brawler and melee characters, whereas in the rest of the franchise you typically have to build around gunplay in some way. The game features some of the franchise’s coolest weapons and armor, like the Desert Ranger armor set.

Also, every🍸 piece of DLC for the game is worthwhile and features even more incredible st🦋ory.

Playing on PC is also probably the best way to enjoy the game as it has incredible mod support. Even though there is plenty to enjoy in the base game, mods add hundreds if not thousands of hours of con🙈tent to the experience.

There’s no better time to break out your Pip-Boy and freshen up on some Fallout in anticipation for the upcoming TV series releasing early next year.
