OK. So I never played Fallout 1 or 2. I did play Fallout Tactics: brotherhood of Steel. And unfortunately I did play this game too. Like I said before, what I terrible way to abuse a license. This game has absolutely no story. Mutants, are the big threat along with rad scorpions and giant rats and other mutated creatures. You start off by entering a little town to try and recruit some more people into the Brotherhood of steel and gain some support too. There were some hilarious moments in the game such as interacting with the hooker but they were pretty far between since you only found these people in town or at specific mission points and the rest of your time was spent blowing up rad scorpions, mutants, giant rats and other mutated species. The game used the same engine as Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance and followed a similar setup for uping stats. This was all fine if you enjoy these kind of action RPG games but I had grown tired of the lack of story and lazy game design that is running rampant in these kind of games. So with the major griping out of the way, I will say that the game had some good moments but not enough to warrant a return to this blatant cash in on the Fallout license. Booorrinng best describes it.
