Was Fallout 2 as good as I remember? - A forgotten vision of the wasteland's future

The "Beta Map" you accidentally found in the Den is part of the cut content. It also has its own cut quest, in which you can help build an orphanage to give those kids in the street a home so they no longer need to steal stuff. It's a very sweet quest and it's a shame that it has been cut but you can experience it by installing the restoration project.

I was in high school when Fallout 2 was released, and Black Isle had a release party, open to the public, at an outdoor mall in Costa Mesa, CA. I somehow convinced my dad to let me drive myself and 4 friends (all 16) an hour to the party. We got free Fallout 2 shirts, and there were tons of people just loading Fallout 2 on to their laptops, finding a table, and playing while Black Isle folks partied and some cover band played on a stage.

I love the fact that the original GECK wasn't just a magic box. It had tools and seeds and information. It could do incredible things...if you put in the work. A new world can never just be handed to you. You have to work to fix what's broken.

"Oh thank Christ, I can finally sleep at a decent hour." Salt: Allow me to introduce myself

Walking from Arroyo straight to Navarro, getting your enclave power armor, then doing the game normally is the real Chosen One mode.

Navarro: There's actually a build you can do where you go straight to Navarro at the start and they just give you the best gear because they believe the naked dude who is good with words. San Francisco: Just isn't finished. A couple more weeks could have made this a great town, but alas, the rest of the game is massive and awesome.

Seeing Marcus in New Vegas is such a nice nod though. Also fun fact that most people don’t know, the kid you have with Bishop’s wife or daughter is a prolific mob boss by New Vegas, and basically runs all of the crime in NCR territory cuz he’s an absolute beast

That little Dark Souls bit was flawless lol, the voice actor did a great job there

The situation with the dude's wife and daughter sounds oddly familiar to the backstory of a certain singer we meet in novac.

As a teenager, I only learned about stealing kids in the Den when I saw Moore's briefcase in one of the shop's inventory. That was close to 20 years ago and I still remember, I thought that was so cool. I probably finished first two Fallouts at least 15 times.

Fallout 2 really gets "complete" by playing it with the "F2 Restoration Project" from killap. It adds back cut quests/maps and even other stuff which in the vanilla version didn't make sense like some items without use (lighter, pills, etc.). It is definetely a must for those who want an enhanced experience

This channel is a goldmine, I always drop everything else i'm watching when a new video releases

One of my favorite bits in the Ghost Farm is after you talk to the leader you then can use the ladder to get down. But if you go through the trap door again the guards laugh at you and basically call you stupid.

Babe wake up new salt factory video

That Frank Horrigan fight can be a total brick wall unless you know exactly how to deal with him. Imagine if you will that you decided to play a martial arts master, going around and unleashing a whirlwind on anyone who crossed your path. Then you take on Frank and get torn apart as your knuckles bounce off him. While he is beatable by any weapon build, in theory and as long as you have the best gear, recruiting Sgt Stone and using the presidential key on the computer terminal are all but musts for that last fight.

1:18:18 There’s an undeniable irony in the Enclave inadvertently creating creatures that are more moral than they are, only to wipe them out when they refuse to fulfill their purpose. Really shows who the real monsters are.

One of my all time favourite games. Black Isle was on point with their vision and planning. The only reason that New Vegas went back to this was that it was the core dev team from Black Isle. Thank you for making these videos.

Well I had nothing to do for 2 hours anyways. Besides work,doing stuff around the house and my backlog of shows. What a time to be alive

In relation to pixel hunting, if you are using the unnoficial patches, holding left shift shows stuff lying on the floor. Really helps for that book in the Den.

I think the reason why NCR in fallout 2 treated like "Messiah" is because Tandi, that is even mentioned in NV, Tandi was so good as a leader, that NCR was like the best thing, but the moment she died and were starting to have different leaders, everything started to fall apart, which makes sense, not everyone have the same type of beliefs, meaning the day NCR lose their former founders, they started to flaw hardly
