That isn't to say I hate that sort of game one of my favourite psuedo-RPG/RTS games is Omerta: City of Gangsters, which is very heavy on the side of turn-based combat. The turn-based combat of Fallout 1 & 2 is a turn-off for me, having only played half-way through Fallout 1 and even then only having retrieved the water-chip, due to my admitted impatience and the ease of which one can die in said turn-based games causing spasms of frustration.


I played a bit of Fallout 1 & 2 on disk but never bothered to pick them up on Steam owing to my own personal preference for non-turn-based combat in games, specifically RPGs. The only Interplay titles I've ever played and finished are Fallout Tactics and Brotherhood of Steel, both of which were spin-offs of the original isometric titles to my knowledge and both of which showcased perfectly the dry, dirty humour of Fallout in all it's rugged glory. Second was Fallout: New Vegas, which I also thoroughly enjoyed, albeit to a slightly lesser extent than Fallout 3 for reasons I'm still not sure of. Being a fan of retro-futurism and diesel-punk, I fell in love with the game's aesthetic and even found the story to be one of the most enjoyable I've ever personally played. First Fallout title I played was Fallout 3: GOTY edition around 2009 loved it.

I'll say this I'm a Fallout fan boy, be it Interplay, Obsidian or Bethesda, I love them all for their overall setting, characters and places and nothing can ever dissuade me from clinging on to the title.
