El arranque del juego es realmente bueno, creo que me gusta incluso más que el de new vegas. Pero, pero. Las primeras horas de juego conforme sales del refugio son horribles.

Intentas explorar mínimamente el mapa, incluso yendo a las zonas que son de historia. Fallas la mitad de las balas, casi todos los enemigos te revientan y tienes que usar una gran cantidad de estimulantes. En ese sentido, creo de verdad que el juego está bastante mal diseñado y es muy frustrante, porque no te dirige como debería.

Ahora bien, llegas a un punto en el que ya te empiezas a ver más fuerte y te acostumbras a que el 50% de las balas no las vayas a acertar por la dispersión y entonces el juego realmente muestra sus bazas fuertes, como lo son su maravilloso storytelling a través de los escenarios y la sensación de exploración, que acaba dando gustito.

Fallout 3 is lacking. Even in comparison to Oblivion, a game from 2006 it feels like Fallout 3 doesn't have substance to it's story or quests. As an RPG Fallout 3 fails in almost every way lacking meaningful skill checks and role playing elements. The gameplay is remarkably mediocre and suffers a lot from being the first entry in the Bethesda Fallout series, missing the tweaks that makes New Vegas fun and 4 bearable. The only decent DLC might be Operation Anchorage with it's interesting setting and different presentation of the gameplay, though somewhat lacking in execution and length. The rest of the DLC ranges from awful to mediocre. Overall the game is playable and you can waste a not insignificant amount of time playing it, but it just doesn't really do anything particularly well.

Fallout 3 is not an RPG. You have your numbers and stats but you almost can't decide anything beside some side content story branches here and there. That's not something necesarily bad, but it's clearly lacking compared to other Bethesda games. You always are constantly on the verge of death, needing healing items or, especially, ammo. This is fun most of the time in games and here it does help creating the setting and some interesting situations, but the problem is the weight mechanic. You are carrying too much weight all the time. In a game where ammo is so limited it's recommended to play changing constantly between types of weapons. And you have to carry so many different weapons all the time. It's not only an annoying issue per se, having to constantly open and closing your Pipboy to change weapons is also quite annoying. At least ammo weighs zero. Thankfully.

Beside that, it's, again, a Bethesda game within its exploration. Everywhere you go, anything you see in the distance can be an interesting landmark and you'll find yourself making detours all the time even when you already had made up your mind to focus on the main story. Even if it's a wasteland, it's not just that. It's not empty at all.

I, tho, didn't like the metro gimmick at all. I mean, it looks like an open world game, but it really isn't, you have to get in the metro to access other areas. To be honest, an underground metro in a post post-apocalypse setting like is Fallout is something amazing in theory. Looks scary. Feels scary. It's an awesome idea. But it falls quickly to deliver what it meant and transforms into something just very annoying to traverse just to get to some other new place. Why can't I just go where I want or need in a straight line and deal with the consecuences of my actions by myself without having to lose a lot of time having to get inside the labyrinthic underground metro... That was the least I liked about this game...

But oh well, at the end of the day, Fallout 3 has quite a charm, despite its flaws. It's a game worth trying out.

SOMEHOW worse than Skyrim. Bethesda really did some voo-doo in convincing their fans they actually make good games. ESO might be the only thing I enjoyed from this company, and even then taht is technically Zenimax, that might just be because i was playing with my good friends and I remember that more than the game itself. Dishonored 1 and 2 are the exception to this rule but again, pretty sure Arkane Studios were the devs on that. Tod Howard's It just works has gotta be in the top 10 propaganda moments in gaming.

Played this for the first because of the show, pleasantly surprised by how well it had held up. Getting used to VATs was nowhere near as clunky as I thought it'd be.

Comparing this game to my experience with Starfield is quite sad honestly, I want to love Bethesda like I did when they released Skyrim...they just aren't the same as they were from 2008-2011.

Decent main story, great side content and variety of characters, and DLCs that provide different experiences from the base game, definitely worth trying if you've never played it before.

queria começar falando que eu estraguei a experiencia desse jogo pq joguei IMEDIATAMENTE DEPOIS do new vegas........................... e portanto, ele obviamente é pior em basicamente todos os aspectos. Mas tem coisas que me incomodaram em especifico

a historia principal é muito curta

explorar as ruinas da cidade é insuportavel de chato

NÃO TEM IRON SIGHT??????????????????

rivet city é a pior cidade de qualquer fallout

eu senti falta de mais quests opcionais???????? eu terminei o jogo em 1/3 do tempo do new vegas e tentei explorar com o mesmo nivel de detalhe mas achei o jogo vazio............

AS DLCS, CARA ESSAS DLCS SAO MUITO RUINS KKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

mothership zeta é de longe a pior, corredor simulator, 100% chata

the pitt é legalzinha, achei a melhor das dlcs

a dlc que continua a historia principal achei muito broxa kkkk nao sei nem oq dizer, foram 2 quests e umas 3 areas novas

e a dlc do pantano é ok, achei a area legalzinha

Esse jogo é um pessimo rpg mas é divertido, fica ai meu criterio final

Coming off the hype of the TV show, I went back to play Fallout 3 with Tale of Two Wastelands and have just completed the Fallout 3 section.

Personally I think Fallout 3 is the weakest of all the entries in the series. Most of the wasteland feels redundant and I felt like there were very few quest outside of the main quest and I spent extra hours running around the wasteland and still found myself hunting for content.

Fallouts systems haven't changed since FO3 that much and they still hold up reasonably well.

Fallout 3 was a great game riddled with bugs and performance issues. The story itself was amazing, you are a vault-born kid who flees their comfortable life in search of their father who has fled. The wasteland is unforgiving to new players, and if you go into this game thinking it is just a post-nuclear shooter you will quickly find yourself uninstalling it.

The bugs are the main issue with this game. It is no secret that this game is outdated, it came out so long ago after all. The biggest issue is performance though. I have a 3070 ti and experienced major stutters in many parts of the map along with overall low framerate, mods can help with this.

Overall this is an amazing game with a deep story but is held back by bugs and performance issues, but if you can get past that then you will find yourself enthralled in the world and characters.

Приятно было вновь, спустя 15 лет погрузиться в разрушенный Вашингтон. Конечно, сейчас нормально на PC без модов не поиграть в эту игру. В целом, Bethesda как по мне, смогли в интересный трехмерный Fallout. Этот мир интересно изучать, в нем интересно быть. Да, где-то слишком много шутерной составляющей, поэтому New Vegas в этом плане мой любимый Fallout, там все в меру, здесь как и в четвертой части нужно много стрелять местами. Но это не такая большая проблема, как я сказал уже выше, мир, атмосфера, ее персонажи. Все это делает Fallout уникальной игрой, и в любую часть этой серии я обязательно рекомендую поиграть каждому.

Decided to finally give the series a try after the amazon series made it impossible to ignore.

Initially the game is straight up Bethesda junk, and while in the vault i was not so much hooked as i had hoped to be, but i kept playing till i reached the wastlands. I had no ideia of what or how to play, but for that same reason the game became more intriguing as i discovered how to heal properly and get rid of radiation and so on, thats when the game really clicks. The start-mid game is the best part and more challenging we have a good grasp of how the game works but not everything. Sadly the game can become a bit repetitive doin the same "subway" and underground areas can become tiring after 50+ hours. And as you explore eventually you get so overpowered that everything in your way just gets annihilated in secounds.

The story is just an excuse to send you over the map and explore, its not all that good. To the point i had to confirmed that i had finished the main story after completing it. Its pretty mediocre and when you think it will get interesting it just ends.

The post game seems to be pretty much 4 or 5 times the size of the main campain giving you plenty to explore after you end the main story. I still have plenty to see but cant say for sure if i will explore it all being that im burnt out in all the repetitive areas of the game.

The classic Bethesda flair is also here, that being the shitty ass bugs that for no reason just kept crashing the game, 3 radscorpions attack at the same time crash, too many explosions crash, alt tab the game crash [never alt tab the game...] Besides the anoying crashs and me getting stuck inside the floor once or twice the game runs as expected from a 2000's game.

Overall it is pretty enjoyable at its peaks, the major draw back i see in the game is the story not using enough of the map, and leaving most of it for the post game. Besides that, it was way better then what people on YouTube tell you.
