Hey guys, thanks so much for all the kind words! I appreciate ya'll pointing out the goofs I made (I still have no idea why I called it Action Points lol). I'm still getting used to this game review format. Hopefully I'll get better over time 😎

In case you didn't google it after making this video; The companion limit isn't 2, It's based on your charisma. For every two charisma points you get one companion.

The significance of the crashed vertibird is that its the first vertibird in fallout, your not supposed to know what that is before playing and be shocked that “wait? People are flying helicopters?”

Fallout 1 - Ian shooting your back with 9mm SMG Fallout 2 - Marcus shooting your back with the body shredding minigun Now that's some evolution!

The money issue has been mentioned a few times, but let's clarify it a little. Bottlecaps was the currency in Fallout 1 because the water merchants in the hub put up clean water as a currency backing due to them running a water putifing plant. In Fallout 2 the water merchants have been absorbed by the NCR, and the government have replaced the currency with NCR dollar.

It's stated in the manual of Fallout 1 that the Pip-2000 is infact wrist mounted.

1:38 That's AC / Armor Class. The AP / Action Points are the green dots above the active inventory item (or yellow for movement-specific-AP)

Now we have to wait another year for a Fallout 3 review

Nobody ever talks about how there is a HUUUGE bong next to the village elder in the opening cutscene

I absolutely adored your first Fallout video, and this video is incredibly great

6:20 V.A.T.S Was introduced in Fallout 3 in the classics this mechanic was simply called aimed attack.

FO2 is my favorite of the series. I've made a bare knuckled marshal artist that only wore leather armor and could take a shotgun blast to the face to no ill effect (because subdermal armor plating) and that could toss around a professional soldier in power armor like a rag doll till they ran in fear (yeah, it was still really hard to do damage through power armor till the 'ignores armor' or 'instant death critical effect came up'). I've also made a heavy gunner build with a 95% critical rate that could cut down the final boss in one round (because OG sniper was supremely overpowered and thanks to save scumming the scan by the thinly veiled Scientology parody). New Reno was the reason there was gambling limits in New Vegas.

There's a speech check at the beginning, you don't HAVE TO fight the guy at the end of the tutorial. I selected this option by accident thinking he wasn't gonna listen and engage regardless

Points at armor class : these are your action points. Oh no no no no......

For the citizenship test in VC, you'll need 9 perception 9 intelligence and 9 luck For the companions, if you have a higher charisma you can have more than 2 companions For example: if you have five charisma you can have 2 companions, if you have 7 charisma i don't know how much you can have Yummy

Man I loved this sorta game review and the animation definitely added alot to the video! Please do a second half!

You can also use skills in FO1-2 by hitting the corresponding number key first skill from the top is 1 second 2 etc. Since the more often used ones like lockpick, steal, stealth are among the first 5 numbers, they're easy to hit without looking.

Love the first video, love this other one! Here some tips and tricks, but don't check it you want to keep the surprise Probably you know it already, but if you didn't, don't take Jet. If you do, save before you do it. Jet debuff is almost permanent and is really a pain in the ass. The numbers of companions is delimited by your Carisma. Every 2 point you can have a buddy, so you probably wanna check that and upgrade your Carisma when you find a posible partner. Another thing is with the stats. You can upgrade a +1 special stat. Some are around the map in form of items and "getting a check with BoS". Others like carisma can be increased with a unique item. My clue for this is "is not in reno, but close to it" The car, the chrysalis highawayman, need to be unlocked. Even if you have money, you need a part of the car that is in Klamath. Just check all the place, you can't lost it. Once you have money and the part, you have your usable hotwheels. Another tiny tip, you can upgrade it :D And last one If you have a good repair skill and repair de elevator in toxic mines, or just "look in the pocket the guards who has the guds", you will find A REAL GOODIE. check it for late game, that's a real unique ;)

i love the dynamic between big buff man and just guy depending on the scene

dude you are so underrated, love ur stuff bro

The pipboy is still wrist mounted in 1&2. Evidently you're like Todd in that you don't read manuals or flavor text either.

Finally, a fursona with more than 3 poses! But really, great stuff here. Full animations in a review definitely elevates it above all others in my eyes.

Absolutely great video and I always love to see any videos on the OG fallouts! Keep up the great work!

Tip: if you are wearing the vault 13 uniform when you go to vault city you will get a free day pass!

cant wait for part 2, i absolutely adored this video. keep up the great work

It's called Fallout 2 because it's got 2 builds: Fallout 1 build (Agility) Fallout 2 build NEW (Charisma)

Just a couple of facts, when fighting Cameron or whatever his name was you can pickpocket the key he has and easily get out, or you can lock pick the door. The test in Vault City is passable, but is extremely hard and I only passed when a messed around with the special stats when importing a character. Also you get a special perk if you drink the synthesized alcohol 100 times, you also need a luck of 9.

Glad I found your channel. Very entertaining!

you can adjust combat speed in the settings btw also companions depend on your charisma stat

3:04 the Norwegian butter crisis, one of the darkest and saddest part of Fallout Lore

I like that this is just your blind playthrough. Very fun

i was actually starting my first playthrough of 2 after doing 1 the day this was posted, and one of my reoccurring thoughts was that 1 was easy if you knew where to go to get good stuff quick, but 2 completely prevents you from doing so because the fights are so brutal, not to mention you dont even get a gun to start the best you get is a pipe rifle upon reaching klamath and raiding Vic's house

I dont know who this KZfaqr is, but he put tooo much effort into this video. Like the amount of art and planning that went into this, FAR exceeds the average video on this site

I hope you channel grows! These are quality videos, loved the animation in the beginning. Was sorta pulling my hair at the companions you missed in the beginning tho lol

Shain, dude, this is an AMAZING video!! I don’t even play Fallout and I loved it

25:30 - This a reference to the Unwashed Villagers, a Fallout fan forum. Interplay had a problem with some dork calling himself the _"Grim Reaper"_ and shyt posting on their forums with death threats and other garbage. The community banded together and eventually got rid of him by either trolling him back, or literally calling his ISP and complaining about his behavior. Eventually the people who got GR to go away founded the Unwashed Villagers, and that easter egg is a sort of thank you to them from the Interplay Studio devs.

Did you know that the voice actress behind Tandi from FO1 and the First Citizen from FO2 also voiced Suzie from Rugrats

I’m amazed at the quality of this vid. Great channel. Keep it up your channel will blow up in no time

Marcus, Lenny, K-9, Sulik and Goris. My favorite bunch of misfits! Also, Cat's Paw has rooms to accommodate everyone. "I hope she doesn't get pregnant." Also, I'll be probably a hundredth person to say so, but AC under HP is armor class, it's dodge bonus, and unspent AP are added to it each turn. About gold, it's NCR dollars. Caps were in the first game because Necropolis bois accepted it for water. There's a big bag of them in Broken Hills settlement; totally worthless. Return to caps in Beth games is completely damn baseless. Wish it was handled better. Also, my favorite is Pancor Jackhammer. From Fallout 2 and forever. It's better than CAWS. Don't fight me, that's pointless. I have Bozar. And I have ammo for Bozar!

1:38 this is your Armor Class, Action points is lil green circles above weapon slot

Marcus is voiced by Michael Dorn who is Worf from Star trek

I love seeing fallout 2 is still relevant And also berry good intro

I really enjoyed watching your video, and the animations you made were terrific! I recently began playing Fallout 2, and I'm really enjoying it. I subscribed to you and hope your channel will thrive!

4:03 I remember at one time having a mod installed for new vegas that replaced the Obsidian logo with the Black Isle logo

Bro you are AMAZING!!! Can't wait for you to do the rest of the Fallout games!

Great video man! The 30 min passed so fast! Cant wait for the second part

Genuinely hope he makes another, he's art and creative style is very good

You can pass the vault city citizenship test. I don't know the exact criteria but 10 intelligence and 10 luck with science at 100% reliably does it for me on normal difficulty.

I recommend Fallout 2 Restoration Project. Fixes most of the bugs and adds originally cut content.

17:20 You can get into Vault city buy just removing your armor and let them see your Vault suit.

These vids go crazy, thank you for making them 🫡

19:10 The test isn't impossible but you'll need a 9 INT 9 CH and 9 PER to pass it IIRC. Just not worth it overall. Also, you can get a free day pass by walking in with your Vault 13 jumpsuit the first time.

I watched Your fallout videos I enjoyed the animation and you sense of humor. These vid should have way more views.

The currency is not gold, it's NCR coins. There was no reason to use caps since the NCR civilized the lands. Take a hint, Bethesda.

In vault city take off your armor so your jumpsuit is showing, thank me later

Holy shit he's back! I've been waiting for a long time for this video good sir, thank you for the good time. Can't wait for the next one!

About that area in Klamath with Mr Handy there are a few thing here: 1 guy that you can help protect bramins will run here if you chose particular way to do this quest and you will have to save him 2 there is a theory that Enclave brought rat god (Brain's brother, big white rat) in that Vertibird

The "quick summary" of the Fallout universe: The Fallout universe is a "what-if" alternate history where the events of the world diverge after World War 2. Essentially humanity invests much more into the style of the 50s and nuclear power, as well as weapons. As the decades go on, the style of 1950s America seems to remain stagnant. Nuclear energy usage is streamlined and better weapons are developed. This eventually leads to a war event where bombs are detonated around the world and cover the planet in radiation and fire. However, just before this event, a company called Vault-Tec offers safety to civilians in a plethora of different "Vaults" scattered around the United States. Huge amounts of citizens pile into these vaults as the war breaks out thinking they are safe. However, what the inhabitants of these vaults do not know is that these vaults are secretly experiments conducted in cooperation of Vault Tec and the United States government. The goal of these experiments is to see how citizens react to different stimuli. These can range from vaults with one single inhabitant, to vaults where all decisions are made through gambling, and much darker vaults where, for example, the inhabitants are convinced that a human sacrifice must be made every year or else the Vault computer will kill everyone. The actual bulk of the Fallout universe takes place after the dust has settled from the nuclear war, and survivors of the Vaults step foot onto the destroyed remains of the old world. Several notable groups are formed from the remnants of the old world. Some of these include the Brotherhood of Steel, the Enclave, and the New California Republic. Less powerful groups were also formed, many of these consisting of savage raiders and regular people just trying to survive. The Norwegian butter crisis began in late 2011 with an acute shortage of butter and inflation of its pride across markets in Norway. The shortage caused soaring prices, and stores' stocks of butter ran out within minutes of deliveries. According to the Danish tabloid B.T., Norway was experiencing "smør panik" ("butter panic") as a result of the shortage. You're welcome.

He finally did it

how is this video only at 10k views?!?!?! under fuking rated

holy crap I love your animation style and how it mixes with your video

For Fallout 1 use Fallout1in2 For Follout 2 use Fallout 2 Unofficial Patch, updated or restoration project + Ecco mod for 2nd playtrough it's eliminates all bugs

You absolutely rock dude!

Where's the review?

Not *those* guys, those are from Nevada, the Rangers in FO2 are the ones serving the NCR before their unification, represented in New Vegas with that big ass statue

8:22 I’m pretty sure the crashed vertiberd is related to the old enclave pilot (forgot her name) in fallout NV

AC stands for armor class and it determines your chance to dodge an attack or have the damage reduced; it relies on your armor and Agility

I just finished watching your review of Fallout 1 and now im here. I'm so glad didnt have to wait a year for you to finally do this game haha 😅

Thank you for droppin another awesome video man❤🎉

17:20 I know everyone should experience fallout 2 their own way and it helps build their own story...but damn I wish you knew about the vault suit.

About the Impossible Vault city test, you need 9 perception, 9 Intelligence, and 9 Luck to pass and you can't have the mutated toes from the toxic caves otherwise you fail no matter what.

About getting into Vault city, as I understand it you can get in for free if you remove your current armor so they see your Vault suit, and sends you in due to being interested in another vault.

Just stumbled across your channel and I have to say that I absolutely love your videos dude! keep it up!

Great video, Btw the AC thing under the HP is your Armour class.

You get a free day pass to vault city for showing up in just your vault suit. Emergent gameplay!

The rangers with the cool riot gear arent the NCR rangers. They're a separate group known as the Desert Rangers who have been around since fallout 1. They did merge with the NCR, but only after fallout 2.

This is what I’ve been waiting for

If you're aching for some more classic Fallout, play 1.5 Resurrection, Nevada or Olympus, all three of them mods for Fallout 2. If you decide to simply play it again try the Restoration Project Updated. Or simply try Tactics, which isn't really an rpg but a tactical squad-based combat game like Jagged Alliance. You can also wait for the translation of Sonora, made by the same team as Nevada's

wow the written test to prove you're worthy of reading.. sounds very ... jim crow-y

I like the silly lizard guy

Great video

As a Psyker myself, I see a lot of subs in your future

Also if you go to the setting you can make combat speed work a lot faster so the wolfs its not really a problem.

You can have 1 companion for each 2 points of charisma and you can have a perk that gives you extra one. So 6 is the max.

Haha, I never used the skilldex when playing the first two fallouts. I just pressed the 1-9 buttons as they corresponded with the skills. 1 for sneak, 2 for lockpick etc. 😁

we've been waiting

Actually as an Oregonian it pains me to say that's the Klamath in the game isn't Klamath falls sadly it's actually a place in NorCal called just Klamath

Markus aslo founded black mountain before Tabatha toke control

The animation definitely ups the enjoyment of the video. Ill wait another year for part 2 no problem.

THE NORWEGIAN BUTTER CRISIS LMAOOOO

He mr crabs reference is superb

FINALLY. I haven't even watched it yet I'm just loved your last one so much.

Good to have you back!

AND GOD SAY THO SHAT WAIT, SHAT RECIEVE GOODNESS.

If you choose to screw over Torr, he will eventually be "kidnapped" by Mr. Handy, and you have to destroy it to save him. Not an option if you help Torr with the scorpions, however.

Ah, yes, the P90, famously made by *checks notes* H&K? Well, alright then.

Umm actually the NCR made a new currency which is gold making caps useless this doesn’t effect the rest of the wasteland which is where the Bethesda games take place in. The only exception is new Vegas where there are three different currencies

awesome video, excited for the next part!

literally the second paragraph on the wiki i would link to it or youtube wont let me post this comment The pip boy is definitely not a tablet. Hate to burst your bubble here. It's still wrist mounted in. fact, when you're in the Temple of trials, if you try using your pit boy, it literally says the pit boy is not equipped yet. You know, equipped as in on your body, wrist, not a tablet. In which case it would give you the item not usable prompt, like every other item Also, early concept art shows. The Pit Boy being wrist mounted and on a live stream. Tim came also confirmed it is risk mounted. There's actually no supporting evidence to say that the pip boy is not. wrist mounted in the older games, but there are several pieces of evidence to say that it is in fact wrist mounted, even if they're not rock solid evidence It at least has some evidence, whereas the best evidence for it being a tablet is kind of looks like it. Also imagine for a second if it was a tablet. It's got the light bulbs in it. It's got the tubes on it. The thing just looks freaking heavy. Imagine trying to hold that with one hand while you try to carefully adjust the knobs and diodes on the side of it to hone in on what you want it. being a tablet would be really, really inconvenient.

You can get into Vault City as simply as walking up to the door wearing a Vault suit--that easy. You have only scratched the surface of this game. You can play it 50 times and play a different game each time, just build a character with different traits, play it as an evil character, play it as a pacifist, play it as a thief, you'll get a different game. I've been playing it for over two decades now--have the original CD and everything. Good stuff.
