  • Fallout brotherhood of steel is one of those games that when it gets brought up in the conversation everybody immediately tries to leave, but is it actually that bad. If you go look for reviews, it certainly seems that way, lacking gameplay, terrible map design, questionable design choices, an retconning a lot of the fallout lore that was established in the first two titles. But as someone who is finally going back and replaying the older games that I didn't have a chance to play when I was younger, I wanted to give this game as fair as a take as I could, so today we'll find out if fallout brotherhood of steel was actually that bad, or if its just a depart from what people were used to.

    Fun Fact: Gamer's Hell gave this game a *better* score than they gave New Vegas. (this got a 74/100, New Vegas they gave a 70/100, saying that the loading times were hell)

      Reallly? My main beef was that after the first 20minutes you had basically seems everything that game had to offer, new Vegas atleast has factions, branching story paths, and lots of replayabaility, that blow my mind haha

    Watching you suffer through this one (occasionally anyways) was an interesting time. Cain was absolutely the right choice of character. The real problem with the game is the lack of variety. It's kind of like why I never really liked the Dark Alliance games on PS2: After 20 minutes of hack and slash, you've seen everything that the game has to offer.
    Good on you for completing it though. Looking forward to the next stream as always.

    For the most part I had fun playing this game but the maps are hard to navigate, the game is repetative, and it just does a shit job being a FALLOUT game. It might have been better recieved if it wasn't a Fallout title but it's still not a well-made game.

    I was a kid when i played this game i thought it was kinda cool, also was one of the few games i had so i found every single hiden treasure, weapons and armours, and when i got tired i passed the game in the highest difficulty with my character just using underwear because i didn't feel it was challenging at all, I loved the weapon and armour concepts and that you can play as a ghoul

    Yes yes it does. I bought FBOS for like 2 bucks at a yard sale a few years ago and as a Gauntlet Legends or Diablo clone it's playable.
    As a Fallout game however to quote AVGN Who came up with this? What were they thinking? While I like the idea of playing as a ghoul (who by default isn't cured by or immune to rads) I highly doubt any BOS chapters would accept abominations joining their ranks.
    Did you forget to grab that loot from the last level you beat? Well sucks to be you because once you beat an area that area no longer exists.
    Want to slow down that ghoul that's chasing you by shooting it in the leg?
    Too bad VATS isn't in the game. This game deserves all the hate it gets and infinity more.

      It just seems really weird to go this route when they literally could’ve just made fallout 2 in the same engine and changed the movemnt controls, and I totally agree , it’s playable and at first I had fun, but it does overstay it’s welcome very quickly without wver really doing what fallout is known for.

    I think that, the game isnt THAT BAD, its just painfully mediocre. The gameplay style has some potential, and I wish someone could make a new fallout spinoff in the same sort of gameplay style with more variety and stuff. It doesnt have to be perfect, but it needs to at least be a good game.

    A improve remake or a fanmade mod remake by using Fallout New Vegas engine would nice.
    Just reuse voice clips and other assets, and recreate locations places and cast,
    improve and tweak the story abit, and additional side fun missions, with some better combat
    and maybe add some friendly npcs companions to hire.
