UPDATE: THE SHOW WAS REALLY GOOD 👍🏻

Fallout 4 is an awful game. I’ve put 3000 hours in it

My favorite fallout game is probably Pinkerton.

"I love Caesar's ideals." You're done buddy

Did a double take at the channel that posted this

I think the reason fallout 4 dialogue is so small compared to other games is because of the voiced protagonist, imagine having to voice all the protagonist dialogue in fallout new vegas...

As much of a pain in the ass the timer is in Fallout 1, I actually respect the developers for implementing it

Fallout 4s DLC should easily put it above 76.

fallout 76 might not be perfect, but i have so many fond memories of this game, meeting high levels who are super nice, exploring the beautiful world, theres so much to love about this game, and im super upset that it didnt have as much time in the oven as it needed at launch because now the legacy it left is still attached to the game all these years later

Fallout 3 is about a vault dweller finding their father Fallout 4 is about a vault dweller finding their son who’s called father Fallout show is about a vault dweller finding their father Stellar creativity from Bethesda

What makes the Railroad funny to me is that almost every playthrough I've watched, they will kill them so they don't have to wait for tinker tom to decode the Courser Chip because of how long he takes.

The fallout franchise has so much potential and it’s upsetting that it’s Bethesda that has it because they aren’t the same team that made Skyrim. Starfield disappointed me more than Cyberpunk because at least that game had a rock solid foundation in a VERY interesting world.

Fallout 3 will always hold a special place in my heart It was one of the first games i ever played, and i loved almost every bit of it I probably played through the game a dozen times

Fallout 76 over 4 and fallout 3 right after is wild

I love a good video essay from someone I’ve never heard or thought would deliver a video essay.

28:20 Actually the Charisma system for companions was implemented in FO2. FO1 has 4 companions and you can have all 4 at the same time no matter your Charisma value. FO2 has around 14 companions, but you can only have up to 5 depending on your Charisma.

Where is the intro!? I wanted to see Leon L. Kennedy do the funny stick man dance 😔

Dude I just realized you’re the dude that makes all those punk rock covers. On my deployment in 2022 I probably listened to your covers once day. Awesome job and awesome video

Another thing about the Yes-Man ending is that it's so secretly sinister, especially with the final lines in the game if you go their route. Yes-man hints and nudges the entire game about the overall level of his AI sentience and while it's been waved away by the game's creator, I can't help to think that we as the Courier essentially spent the entire game thinking we'd be the King/Queen of New Vegas when in actuality we're bringing about a Terminator world. It's like that's one of the doomsday theories about AI, not that we'll see apocalypse by having the robots become self-aware and determine we're obsolete, but the more likely scenario is that the robots will take advantage of human weakness and folly and use us to destroy ourselves. When I first heard that (from the Ordinary Things YT channel on the subject) I immediately had a brain blast as to why the Yes-man writing was actually so incredibly, incredibly brilliant. Mostly, because of how well Yes-man fools you into thinking THEY'RE working for YOU.

predicted the ranking and got it spot on. billy is literally me

In Fallout 3 you gain Speech Options based upon your character's build, going beyond the basic Speech Skill, many of which are "hidden" unless you possess the requisite specs. Heck, there's companions that will only join you if you're Good, Neutral or Bad.

Not the Billy Cobb album we deserved, but the Billy Cobb album we needed

I cannot appreciate fans like you enough who genuinely find value in almost every title, genuinely each game has it's own merit and replayability that makes it super fun and enjoyable

the singing took me off guard with how good it was then i realized this is BILLY COBB????

Ngl I think most of your takes are wild and even a bit unhinged, but I appreciate your work and enjoyed the video

Damn Billy Cobb is a gaming channel now? Were we mislead? Jokes aside, I'm looking forward to this video.

That ncr ranger wojak with a flamethrower on the thumbnail looks terrifying

The fact that bethesda owns fallout deeply saddens me who knows if we'll see any more of the west coast

Tenpenny tower doesn't have a moral dilemma, the ghouls are just evil. If you convince the residents to let them in the ghouls kill everyone. Tenpenny is right to keep them out

Why didn't you include Fallout: Pinball?

oh i know the show's gonna have that visual spectacularity, it has the team behind the boys on it, and that shits awesome

36:50 damn bro you got some pipes on you I love this. Also the hard cut (and the editing in this video in general) is hilarious.

Nitpick with me..when you holster your weapon on fallout 4, it just disappears On fallout 3, most weapons hop on yout back, or holstered to the side. I know some big weapons disappear, but most firearms are viable when you holster. You just look like a badass with a rifle sitting on your back

putting 76 above 4, saying 4 is the worst "fallout" experience is fkn crazy

I had the opposite reaction with Fallout 4 honestly. I was really disappointed with it at launch, mainly due to the voiced protagonist and lack of RPG elements in the story. But now its one of my favorites to go back and play just because of how fun the game-play is on survival mode. Settlements are actually important since you cant fast travel, the combat is fast and deadly, power armour is easily 100x better than any of the other games, weapon and armour crafting is great, and the perk/skill system is probably the best in the series.

Soooo... fallout season 2 will be in new vegas, should we run or pray?

Fallout 3 gets a bad wrap. So many great moments in the side quests

I will say that as someone who really doesn't like fallout 4, combining the perks and the skills together is not a bad idea. If you think about how the skills were used in fallout 3 and new vegas, it wasn't like Dungeons & Dragons where you have a bonus that gets added to a roll, most of the time you uad to beat a threshold of loke 25 or 70 or whatever. And while leveling uo sometmes you could increase two slills last a threshold, you could also fail to do so as well. Making the skills into perks makes it so you can dedicate a levek to increasing a skill to that equvilant threshold. Its a simplification and streamlining but the effect isn't lost.

Hey Billy i was just wondering if you were going to do more covers of songs you can hear on the fallout radio Ps love your music

I haven't played a single Fallout game, I am just happy to see ranked videos again.

clicked on this video, 10 minutes in realized i was listening to one of my most listened artists on Spotify, nice vid, william

fallout 4 be like yes, no, sarcastic and explain

FO3 was my first fallout game, Broken Steel was added because of the issue that Billy had stated, that being Fawkes said nuh uh and wanted you to kys to start the purifier AND the fact you couldn't play after the ending, and therefore Broken steel was added alongside the new Hellfire power armor. Edit: It also raised your level cap to 30 and the goated energy weapon: the tesla cannon.

I was coping and seething at the placement of Fallout 4 But after the explanation at 11:38 I am like “Understandable have a nice day”

BILLY TALKING ABOUT FALLOUT FOR 40 MINUTES?!?!🎉

I was really surprised to see Fallout 76 above Fallout 4, because the first time I tried it I played for about 3 hours and didn't really enjoy it, whereas I have 100%ed Fallout 4. However, after watching this and hearing the reasoning, I feel I should at least give Fallout 76 another chance, maybe this time even play with a friend, maybe it'll be more fun.

Putting fallout 4 as last is hilarious

main reason i love being subbed to this channel, i either receive tasty tunes our Fallout opinions and honestly like a sickly child grasping for nutrients this pleases me Billy thank you

8. Fallout Brotherhood of Steel 7. Fallout 76 6. Fallout Tactics 5. Fallout 4 4. Fallout 3 3. Fallout 1 2. Fallout 2 1. Fallout New Vegas Some days, Fallout 2 is my favorite instead. And Fallout 1 has my favorite story. It is easily the most tonally and thematically consistent game in the series. It is also the only Fallout game without any extraneous elements. You could download it now and complete it in 15 to 20 hours.

I know Fallout New Vegas is everyone Fallout fans favorite, but the original Fallout will always be my favorite. The game wasn't shy and I like the bleak, empty desolate wasteland it brings. And the Master, mwah, chefs kisses all around for being one of the best video game antagonists ever. Also the endings man, they didn't mess around.

The brotherhood of steel in FO3 were stated to be a fractured part of faction that lost communication with the main hub on the west coast. Over the years, their ideals drifted from the original BoS.

Bro i listen to your stuff in the gym and now u talk about fallout what a time to be alive.

Will we get a new vegas cover album soon Mr. Billy?

I did not realize this was Billy…. Great video dude! Entertaining and hilarious

76 gets such bad rep. It was pretty bad on release but just, give it a try now, it's a great Fallout experience, and the game is on sale very often, if not free.

FA4 I had a moment where I was in a shootout with a bunch of riders that referenced me as the phycho that goes around absolutely demolishing their camps. That was a WTF moment, because they were talkin to eachother while in cover while in a shootout with me.

I have 2000 hours in fallout 4 because of mods(over 200 usually), I have 2000 hours in fallout new Vegas because of the game(with like 5 stability and graphics mods). That says a lot

I agree with this list. I remember buying new Vegas when it came out, everyone thought it was a big flop and a glitchy mess. It’s wild how much it’s changed. Fallout 3 was my first, so it has a spot in my heart, whole reason I bought a 360.

Dead money as favorite DLC is truly cultured

For me 1. Fallout New Vegas 2. Fallout 3 3. Fallout 4 4. Fallout 1 5. Fallout 2 6. Fallout 76

New Vegas was my first real RPG, completely ruined every other game for me as it set the bar wayyyy too high

Didn't think billy would drop this kinda vid, glad he did 😄

The vats system in 76 is genuinely so smooth

Cant believe you didnt mention Fallout 4's atmosphere, it was such a downgrade from fallout 3 and NV, It doesnt even feel like a post apocalyptic world and the interiors are boring. The entire world seems like it has no aesthetic or style its quite boring compared to fallout NV or 3 which had a distinct art style and aesthetic.

But what is your favorite video game Billyman?

8:18 from my personal experience after a few 900ish hours in fallout 4, the karma thing is mostly with dialogue, some characters like you if you are all goody two shoes (like NPC's like you and are friendlier with you - diamond city has NPC's run around and give you stuff, like some ammo they found or some food or water, some shops even give small thank you stuff like a few rounds of ammo) while if you are hated the NPC's don't do this, from what I've heard their may be higher prices in the shops and NPC's can refuse to speak to you.

Starting the list on the correct answer got me hooked. Ngl.

I let my sister play New Vegas and she loved it, start off on the best fallout for a better experience She chose a melee build and the yes man ending Very different than me, too cool

Gets shot and killed Gets revived Goes and kills the killer Decides where Platinum Chip goes Changes New Vegas Stays as a Courier

Only 11k views? That's criminal, this video is great!

Its funny to me that Obsidian did in a year what Bethesda has struggled to do for over a decade.

My ranking (not including 76 i didn't play it) before seeing yours 1 : Fallout New Vegas 2 : Fallout 1 3 : Fallout 4 (although it's very close to 2) 4 : Fallout 2 5 : Fallout 3

The lore makes it pretty clear that the radscorpions came from the north american emperor scorpion, very common in pet stores and homes as pets, so them being on the east coast really isn't that farfetched

That „meine Damen und Herren“ really came out of nowhere and pleased me giving the fact I’m from Germany 😂

I grew up playing Fallout 1 and 2, like, age 4 onwards, because my dad was into it. When I got Fallout 3 I was stoked just because it was 3d Fallout. Then New Vegas came out and after about 57 crashes, I loved it to pieces. Then 4 happened and I absolutely fell into the hype, but had my hopes dashed as it just ended up being a game that was less of a satisfying fallout game and more of an oddly addicting settlement builder.

My list is probably unpopular 1.) Fallout new vegas 2.)fallout 4 3.) Fallout 3(super close to 4) 4:) fallout 2 5.) Fallout 1 6.) Fallout 76 I havent played tactics or BOS but i dont think id like them

I would keep your ranking but swap New Vegas with Fallout 2. Fallout 2 is raw and full of whores, drug addicts, people who barely keep their shit together and overall nasty place to live in but grander with more content than Fallout 1... I mean you can have forced gay marriage in this game then sell your spouse to slavers and use money from that transaction to either buy guns to kill those slaves AND your spouse (to free up slot for better party member lol) and get high on drugs you looted from salvers.... name one game when you can do this. Vegas is close but it missed on that nasty front. Even though Vegas wasteland is full of deadly mutants,, it is still too "nice" compared to old Fallouts.

The online player base of fallout 76 is so generous, honestly a 1/1 in terms online experience

The way i died laughing when the guy shot shaun like 16 times it killed me man

I'm glad I am not the only one who was just extremely disappointed by fallout 4. Its not a horrible game but it just feels lacking a lot of fallout elements.

Unexpected but not unwelcome

bro i LOVE ur music i didnt know u made content lmaoo. playing new vegas for the first time heavily modded and its a blast!

Seen your tweets about fallout so I knew something was cooking.

for me 4 has the world i enjoy exploring and making my own fun in but the story is basic, the factions ALL suck and as fun as nuka world is and i do love, having to destroy what you may have built seems dumb. fallout 3 i enjoy the least, i find the 360 era game clunky and 3 just feels like metro tunnel simulator. new vegas has the best factions but the world isnt engaging by nature of being set in a desert. when they remake 3 and new vegas i think that will be amazing. 76 i can only stomach if i pretend that the simulation theory is correct and all the daft stuff thrown at the players is to simulate how people would repsond. i think the world is great, theres a ton of diversity, but it quickly becomes the daily live service grind and someone in charge of the daily stuff clearly has a fetish for people eating dog food. my ranking would be 1- Fallout 4 2-New Vegas 3- 76 4- fallout 3 havent played the other and as much as ive seen a ton of play thrus im not going to pretend ive played them to rank

Bros got a degree in yapology holy fuck

31:33 YOU ARE OUT OF UNIFORM, SOLDIER WHERE IS YOUR POWER ARMOR??? Joke never gets old XD

I still wish you could side with the enclave in fo3

F:NV is the gold standard. Everything else is inferior and everyone knows it. The DLCs are diverse and varying degrees of "excellent." I seriously can't ever decide on which one is my favorite, but Roger Cross voicing "Ulysses" makes "Lonesome Road" a real treat. The mix of humor, drama, action and horror is spot-on. Oh, and the SOUNDTRACK. If the graphics and UI weren't so painful and outdated, I'd still play it regularly.

Ranking 4 below 76 is a crime

Patrolling the Mojave makes you wish for a nuclear winter.

With fallout 4, the biggest issues for me, was how the factions got implemented and the way the settlement system removed any trade/quest hubs that could have been present. I wanted the Railroad to actually have more people hidden in other cells that we could interact with. Minutemen got encountered too early, should have just been the concord survivors who tell you that preston tried to hold the raiders off and you go get him at LExington. Institute should hve let you pick a division head to become the new leader and each one has a different main goal. Brotherhood was really the only one that felt fully fleshed out. But I would have liked a way to turn settlements into brotherhood outposts/railroad safehouses/institute integration centres. New Vegas' main issue is the way the map funnels yu so much in the first 8-10 hours (unless you rush/skip the canyon trek to vegas). If you skip it, you just miss out on like 20% of the game. After 10+ replays, it loses fun for each new playthrough. Takes the longest to let me do whateve I want. 3's worst issue was combat and main quest ending. 2's biggest issue is that it feels more like a completely different game set in a different post apocalypse, instead of a sequel to 1. Even though it's my favourite game, I think it's the worst main series. 1's biggest issue isn't really fair, since it was tredding new ground in everything.

thoughts on Fallout Equestria?

unpopular opinion: i fucking love fallout 76 and its my favorite fallout game...

My favorite fallout 1 random encounter is the car trunk with money in it cause I always hit up shady sands and get my dude and I like to pay him up early for just joining me, orrrrrr I keep it either way it’s a nice touch to the game cause I sat there wondering why it was just a car there until I took a look at it

So is no one gonna talk about bros flawless singing?

Fallout 4 legitimately killed the franchise for me

Official Fallout ranking (Not including spinoffs) 1. Fallout 2 2. Fallout New Vegas 3.Fallout (Doesn't include fallout games so bad they shouldn't exist) I still remember Black isle studios

billy - this video deserves more views. (especially with how long this prolly took) Im glad fallout could get some more spotlight btw

Take it as you will but emil pagliarulo confirmed tactics is canon

Best fallout game is BOS
