    I'm a native San Franciscan and I can confirm that those Muni streetcar bells are 100% authentic. That is EXACTLY what they sound like. I've had this soundtrack on in the background while I work and when I heard those bells I thought, "That's weird, there are no streetcar lines that close to my place!" before I remembered it was just the music. LOL

    San Francisco is probably my favorite location in Fallout 2 and not just because they have the best weapons and gear. I find the Shi to be fascinating and both mysterious in lore and gameplay.

    Love the fact that the Chinese have taken over San Francisco. This song really conveys that mystic chinese feeling, but with an apocalyptic/omnipotent feeling. Absolutely brilliant

    The subtle trolley bells, the nautical theme with a hint of mystery and fear.. The echos of a dead once great city that’s what I hear with this theme

    I walked through the old high rise buildings and corpse filled streets and found my way to Chinatown. There were at least 5 guards at the main gate. All of which had heavy armor and weapons. But this town had a few green trees. Maybe a GECK? Like I needed. Besides that, this town wasn’t worth protecting. I saw a few old buildings, including weapon stores and low cost hotels. After walking through where the beggars are, I handed a few of them some money and they thanked me. I ended up at a place with a huge rusted boat. There were a few citizens and guards at the dock with some fishing for gigantic fish. I saw a man holding his sides and begging for help. But I needed to find a GECK quickly so I wandered off to a metal gated area. Once there, I found something weird. Something that I had seen in a few advertisements of the old world. I saw technicians and people throwing metal at it and others welding it in place. Standing in a suit near it was a man who had an upset and surprised look on his face. Next to him stood a 12 year old girl with brown hair to her shoulders. She looked mad. The man then walked away. A short man, not a midget, but short man, who had a Canadian accent was being yelled at by a man in a lab coat. I turned around and walked out of that ugly town as fast as I came in

      A lot of the devs and Mark Morgan probably would’ve been working on both at the same time since I think they got released the same year, or close to it.

    I always wondered what happened to the Shi after The Chosen One blew up the Oil Rig. Did they get absorbed into the NCR, or did they offer their knowledge under the condition of their independence? The Shi always were rather isolated. They seem to prefer it that way by what the townsfolk say before you become idolized in the area.

    This music is interesting for me. On one hand its a great piece of music individually but this just makes me remember the absolute agony of having to navigate San Francisco in Fallout 2. Not to mention the numerous bugs I encountered while in that place makes me just think that this is just a poorly designed place overall and was definitely rushed to meet deadline. You will know what I mean if you played Fallout 2 and have reached this place.

      This has had the most lagging for me out of all of the locations with New Reno coming in at second, I assume partially because they’re two of the more visually demanding areas in the game. Haven’t gotten to Navarro or the oil rig yet so I dunno about those.

      The whole "end-game" of Fallout 2 was pretty shitty IMO. After getting several Power Armors for you and your buddies, dozens of overpowered weapons and shitloads of ammo, the game loses it somewhat. Fallout 1 was still exciting to the very ending.

      But I tell you what, after playing the new "hugely immersing RPGs" that have popped up....Fallout 2's HUGE dialogue choices and many MANY pathways blows them out of the water....almost 2 decades before.
      Shame on today's devs.
