Yes the game is a legend.
But **** this game. I was 3 years old when it first released. But i did wanna give a chance.
I have never feel annoyed and addicted at the same time playing a game.

I died a lot. A LOT ! The first time ever in my life i have to use game save editor. (final mission)
AND feel terrible about it. Thanks again FALLOUT 1. It took 24+ hours to complete. Maybe it could took 30+ without the save editor but hell.
I'm gonna play the second game. I hope i won't get annoyed to kill myself.
But old-time gamers again and again gain my ultimate RESPECT! These kind of games are too hard for my 90s generation i guess. I couldn't think the 2000s what would say.

One of the truly great RPGs. Fallout is the most creative and compelling game universe out there, in my opinion, and this is where it all started. As old as this game is, it is still worth a play today, especially if you enjoy old school RPGs.

that weird grouvee feeling when you comb through a very nice list of another user who has solid five star ratings and you are like "yeaaa!" then you come to their four star section and see one of your personal faves start off the list!

You play as a vault dweller sent into the radioactive wasteland to obtain specific items to keep the vault operable.
Played via Steam 2015/2016. Pretty sure I completed the game, but as there are no achievements, difficult to determine without opening-up the game again.
