Don't forget about Fallout 1+2. They're about as janky as Planescape: Torment, but still great games.

Don't forget [two perfect masterpieces]. They're about as janky as [another perfect masterpiece].

I... guess I agree?

I just played through 1 and 2 and they are far from perfect but they are damn good games

I remember losing Fallout 2 because one of the stat boosting items got lost from my inventory so I spent a month trying to track it down instead of saving my village.

Fuck them kids anyways.

I gotta be honest. I love New Vegas and FO1 but I gave up on 2 somewhere around Vault City. I'm sure the game has it's good moments, but the total whiplash of all the proto "so Random XD" humor got to me. I don't mind some random wackyness in FO, it just has to actually be funny.

That's a hot take I 100% agree with. Fallout 1 nailed the vibe and was perfect from start to finish. While 2 has a ton of great moments (Frank Horrigan is amazing), it isn't as totally consistent.

New Vegas married the two quite nicely.
