Community for CRPG and other RPG discussions. Focus is on CRPGs, but discussion around JPRGs, ARPGs and hybrid games with RPG components is also welcome.
Tabletop/pen & paper RPG discussion is not a good fit for this community. Check out !rpg@ttrpg.network for TT/P&P RPG discussions.

Very good image quality. Additionally, it's just a good opening video in general! Shows you all that was already in place long before Bethesda took over. I only got in the series at Tactics (PC), the third game. I loved it! Still haven't made it back to Fallout 1 and 2... One day hopefully.
If you do get to try FO1, I would recommend trying the FO1 on FO2 engine mod:
https://github.com/rotators/Fo1in2
Both games are obviously old school (they are almost 30 years old now), but the FO2 engine has some nice QoL improvements.
I would also get a build guide/walk-through for the first 5 hours of both games. There is a stupid amount of RNG and you have to use super cheesy tactics (really dumb kiting and constant save scumming) to survive the early game.
Things get way more fun in terms of combat balance in the mid to late game.
I never knew about this :O thanks for sharing it!
