Hey folks, please enjoy part 1 of me playing the original Fallout. I recently watched the Amazon Fallout show and was inspired to check out the series. No idea if I'll play all of the games yet, but for now here's Fallout 1. I've also recently started up Fallout 2 and I'm still playing that currently on my Twitch channel.

Please enjoy!

    People suggesting "mouse wheel for zoom" in a 1997 game is just hilarious
  • @nyanbanana9050
    Love this game! Couldn’t make it to the streams Barb thanks for posting on youtube!
  • @Dylanjrvs
    I love that so many people are going back and playing these excellent games. The show has done a lot of good for this franchise.

    to everyone that said this is 'very similar' to baldur's gate.....NO. slaps with rolled up newspaper

    Non-spoiler: Just old fashioned know-how: 1) F1-key to bring up a 'Quick Help'-page. 2) Hold shift to highlight loot. 3) You can adjust battle speed in menus. 4) You can view the game manual online for further tips, search for players handbook or survival guide. For anyone planning to playing F1, I highly recommend installing "1in2" mod! It's free, but requires fallout 2. For F2 there's an mod called Restoration Project. Also free. Vanilla options recommended for first play through.

    Funny how influential this game with B tier budget became over the decades. Those talking heads were actual real life clay figures btw. Most of the face textures were added digitally though.

    One of the mega bangers from my long lost childhood, or that's what it feels like. I realize now that I was 17 years old when this came out, but in my memory I am a toddler when playing this. Memories are weird.

    Things that you wish to know in your first playthrough... 1 - When dark use flare to illuminate and raise you odds 2 - Pick pocket everyone you can before enter in combat(if possible) 3 - Use dynamite to blow up things on the way 4 - Search for the panel in the entrance of vault 15 5 - Allies serves as carriages too... 6 - Don't leave loot in the corpses, get the goods and put in shelves, desks and locks. Return to the place when you get the chance 7 - Give the SMG to Ian

    Literally the very first item the game lets you find and pick up is a new kind of bullets, different to the ones you already have. The original game also has a bug that makes all the different types of bullets perform exactly the same as each other. Boggles the mind that they missed that on release.

    on the topic of colorblindness I remember someone asking barb if he had tried those "colorblind glasses". I know a little bit about vision and how it works because I read a lot of blurbusters articles. I knew immediately that it had to be a scam since the colorblindness occurs within the eyes receptors or a neurological problem and glasses cannot fix it. They can only shift the colors to a different contrast making your vision objectively worse. I hope nobody ever tried those scam glasses and got disappointed...

  • @Dworkle
    8:44 "what is PE?" Asks the streamer while 25% of the screen explains perception. Beautiful irony ❤

    I’ve seen most of this game. I’ve been meaning to play it myself since buying it on GOG. Never started it though. From what I’ve seen the UI takes awhile to get used to.
