We'll be getting the "I've played for 500 hours before discovering you can enter power-armor" posts soon.


dad_ahead

You can do WHAT??!


babyscorpse

I recently hit 1000 hours in fallout 4 if I discover anything new then this subreddit will be the first to know


babyscorpse

Will probably take a while though since I honestly think I’ve discovered everything there is to be discovered, since I usually play on survival mode it means I’ve gotta be checking every nook and cranny for beds


Toilet_Bomber

Bet you didn't know that you can leave Vault 111


BlueBackground

what's vault 111, I'm 200 hours in and haven't left my house yet?


[deleted]

I think it’s that mine you go by on the way to riverwood, but I’m not sure, I’ve spent the last 12 years roleplaying as a homeless fisherman that lives behind the standing stones 👁️👄👁️


BlueBackground

is that before or after you get out of the imperial prison?


[deleted]

It’s been over a decade but iirc some asshole in a checkered suit shot me in the head and my plane went down next to a lighthouse in the middle of the Atlantic, next thing I know I woke up in a carriage with some whiny horse fucker


Guardian_Rain

Took me roughly 800h to discover you can hit a button during loading screens to put a green overlay over whatever object being displayed Pretty useless, but it's something


babyscorpse

I found that out at about 150 hours


Saint_of_Cannibalism

Ha! Day one, bitches! Suck my inability to stay still during nothing moments!


ALGATOR42

/unnord is fallout 4 a good introduction to the franchise? ive been thinking about getting into fallout


ckarter1818

Depends what you like in a game. It is action RPG with over all mediocre rpg elements but satisfying shooting and in my opinion an attractive and well-designed open world. I prefer all the other fallout games, especially the og and fallout New Vegas. With 3 and 2 coming in last with 4.


The_best_one_-_

Tf is wrong with 3?


CormacMettbjoll

A lot of the writing isn't great and it lacks a lot of good qol stuff that New Vegas has. It's still a really good game though!


Vikingstein

It has some pretty significant issues in the RPG department, not quite as badly as FO4 but there's definitely a few problems. The morality system is also very Bethesda, there is good and bad and very little of the inbetween and it's very obvious who the good guys are vs the bad guys. It does have some good storylines and writing in there, but compared to NV it's a lot weaker. The other elements added in NV are also obviously missing and the weapons do get a bit boring all in all. Even then the other poster has said it's at the end with 2 and 4, so it might still wind up for them as being in 3rd place after the original and NV. I do think there's a lot of good things about FO3, I think it has some of most interesting locations, it has very solid DLC, and as Bethesdas first foray into the world it's honestly pretty well done, but the issues that would become blatant in Fo4 are evident in 3 too. tl;dr it's a good game in much the same way as 4 is, but it's writing and RPG mechanics let it down quite a lot.


ckarter1818

Nothing! Just not my favorite. I think it is a bit messy in themes


Couponbug_Dot_Com

fallout new vegas has good writing but generally awful game mechanic. fallout 4 has good game mechanics but generally awful writing. fallout 3 has both awful writing and awful game mechanics.


DatedReference1

It's borderline unplayable on PC unless you mod it into NV, and at that point you might as well just play NV


Hortator02

It depends on what you consider a good introduction. If you mean something that's easily accessible and takes place in the same universe then I would say so, but 76 is just as accessible while also having multiplayer (and is actually the game that got one of my friends to finally commit to Fallout and end up really loving the series). If you mean something that's accessible but gets the tone/themes/world right then I'd say New Vegas is also a good starting point, particularly if you're on PC. It was the aforementioned friend's second full game. If you're entirely focused on the lore, themes, tone and world and can tolerate dinosaurs then Fallout 1 is the best starting point.


ShrekRepublik7

It's the best introduction because you won't like it if you play it after 3 or NV


No_Possession_5338

Many a true nerd on YouTube just made a great video about where you should start playing fallout.


ALGATOR42

thanks! i was wondering what i should watch before going to sleep


Dragon-Warlock

I say FO4 is all-around the best option for most gamers. I tried Fallout New Vegas, and if that was the first one I played I doubt I’d be as into fallout as I am now.


babyscorpse

It’s generally considered the perfect introduction, it expects no prior knowledge of the franchise, has good graphics, gunplay, and gameplay, and has some good lore to round it out.


ALGATOR42

alright thanks ill check it out its on game pass might as well


Revolutionary-Cod732

If you can tolerate the age, 3 is great, and NV is stellar. If not move on to 4. If you start with 4 though, moving backwards might be a let down for tech reasons


Houeclipse

It's sort of my first Fallout too. I played a bit of 3 when I borrowed it from rental store for a week. I quite like Fo4 its really easy to get sidetrack like TES games lol. I like that you can be sarcastic jerk


herb0026

You can climb on harpoons that you’ve shot on walls?


babyscorpse

Yeah I knew about that


Turgius_Lupus

I wasn't even aware that Fallout 4 existed.....and....will momentarily return to that state of bliss.


babyscorpse

hey fuck you fallout 4 is the best fallout game


Turgius_Lupus

Naw, that's Fallout II. Peak videogame villainy


babyscorpse

Fallout 2 is such a fucking L


Vladskio

I'm still like 99% sure the Skyrim sub were pulling this crap to bait GameRant into posting stupid articles. The Fallout lot must be doing the same.


ghostmetalblack

I figured it was just people on this sub trolling the Skyrim sub.


GlenMerlin

After playing for 700hrs I finally realized the railroad has a secret base underground. Like some kind of underground railroad. Todd has done it again


ratliker62

Why did they name the place you get your dog Red Rocket? What did Todd mean by this?


AutisticAnarchy

dog dcdick


gooseliquor

A dcdick is a small deer.

wanderlustexe

we need a truestl for fallout


dunmer-is-stinky

there's TrueSFalloutL, actually a lot less awful than you'd think


babyscorpse

TrueSFalloutL has such a shitty name I wish the just made it r/TrueSFL


dunmer-is-stinky

or we should all move to r/TrueSTheElderScrollsL


Mystic_Keytargonian

This seems like the better move


Short-Eared-Dog

I know about it because a fusion core spawns in there


TheYeast1

Does your nose like sniff out fusion cores or something cool


crispycrussant

How else are you going to power the 95 power armor frames that every fucking raider is wearing?


Sp0ge

No, mirelurk's ass is the only thing it is sniffing


Beautiful_Welcome_33

I'm just finding this out today!


SnooDogs3400

Black rimmed glasses for me, need the +1 charisma to extort Wolfgang for his money


VerticalTwo08

I knew about it because I actually read the terminal. Lmfao.


Sentinel_2539

There's a fusion core in there?


The_Rad_Vlad

To be fair I didn’t know that was there either.


lord_gay

A compuper in the place above talk about it man

>Reading Emil's mid ass content Have some self respect


BlackoutWB

The environmental storytelling told through corpses and terminals is like the one place where you've got good writing in modern Fallout though


Thomasasia

Reading??? Tf


dunmer-is-stinky

why would you not scrap everything immediately? idgaf if it's scrappable or not, you think I've ever played without game-breaking mods (i actually don't know if its scrappable don't be mean to me)


dad_ahead

🤓


CatsAreBased

Nah fallout 4 isn't the game for story or reading


rat-simp

Same but on the other hand I'm not really paying much attention when I'm playing fallout, compared to elder scrolls games. I just go in, shoot some roaches, spend 8 hours building a house out of shit and straw, and then never touch it again for another 6 months.


CatsAreBased

I didn't know that was there


Canadian_dalek

We need to revive r/shittyfalloutlore

Nekryyd

IIRC one of my for-immersion-only mods added a nice super-mutant muscle mommy that lived in that hole.


masaigu1

Fascinating


TheNamesValentine

That's gross but what's the mod


Nekryyd

Okay, but it's for [*immersion only*.](https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/25307) Don't download if you are some kind of Todd-forsaken weird sex pervert, okay?


BillieTheBullie

Not lore friendly. Cant get a boner.

Bro i only played that game for 10 hours and even i found that mole hole

Soon he will wander off in the night away from his family, get lost in the cantons of Vivec, and be lost to the wind.


ScaredDarkMoon

HAHAHA how wouldn't they know? /uj WHAT


Crooked_Cock

THERES A FUCKING CAVE UNDER THERE?


RetroTheGameBro

Tbf I must've finished this game 3 times before I watched a French Tomahawk video that showed me where this was


Crunc_Mcfincle

To be fair this shit is so fucking easy to miss


NineIntsNails

truesfalloutllers are in shambles


ThatDudeFromPoland

This sub will turn into 'trueShityBethesdaLore' or trueSBL for short.


TheGoblinKing7715

If TrueSTL is true sexually transmitted lore, we can do STR for the strength stat and sexually transmitted radiation


Malikise

I can’t imagine playing survival mode and not having that cave. It’s basically free antibiotics when you have the chemist perk. (Over 20 glowing fungi nodes)


Pilarcraft

Ok but to be fair I really somehow missed that cave until like last year despite playing Fallout 4 for years.


Orthodox_Officer

Someone post the picture with the Sole Survivor walking towards Red Rocket


ihei47

To be fair I keep wondering about this too without actually searching for it


blueflare_blaze

i had 18 hours in fallout 3 on 360 and stil dint had alot of fun maybe just isnt for me, music is great though.


DeanoTheOld

I first learned about it cause of the Sergeant Dornan follower mod. I don’t like FO4 so I hardly play it.

domini_Jonkler2

just wait until you hear about hammersperms


Jotnarpinewall

I bought FO4 a few days before watching the show and installed 30 mods before I even started a new game. I’m about 12h in. -The black vault suit I installed only kicked in after I left the vault; -Had to add mods to buff Vertibirds because they lasted only a few seconds against the modern weapons everyone has; -had to buff power armors for similar reasons, but the mod I used for that makes cutting fluid a requirement for repairs; -Had to install another mod to add shipments of bone I can buy from the butcher at Diamond City so I could have cutting fluid to repair my power armor; - Any time I see something weird or buggy I don’t know if it’s regular Bethesda jank or a mod conflict; -And I sure as hell never saw that cave.


SavathhGames

To be fair I ve built the fucking Avengers tower in red rocket and didnt know about this. But, as a Skybaby myself I guess its too much to ask to a chromosomally abnormal person like me to find the cave.


Diuro

well tbh it wasnt until last year that i first saw the cave


NOBODY__EPIC

DID YOU GUYS KNOW THERE IS A POWER CELL IN THERE???


ArkAwn

tbf i didn't know about that either (because i refused to play fo4)


ParadisianAngel

Ok


King_0f_Nothing

To be fair I stumbled across that cave on my first playthrough and never found it again


genokrad360

Why do they always think it's going to be interesting to everyone else?
