/vr/ - Retro Games

I just started playing Fallout 1 for the first time, and man, this is great. I've never really gotten into CRPGs before besides Planescape, and so far I'm enjoying this one like crazy.

Two questions:

>What's the verdict on Fallout 2? I've heard some people say it's better, worse, more polished, less polished, etc. I just want to know the biggest differences and I'll make the decision for myself.

>What are some of the other best CRPGs that I may have missed out on? I don't care as much about the plot as I do about the gameplay. Bonus points for lots of player choice (being able to talk your way through the game or fight your way through it) and exploration. And player-owned housing in some way, shape, or form is pretty cool too. I have Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 and Ultima VII already but I haven't gotten much into them yet.

Also, Fallout thread.

General FO:1 and FO:2 thread

>FO:2 is the best
>mfw I literally have to type Fallout 1 into search bar to get FO:1 pictures

Je.Sus.Christ.
Just started playing Fallout 1. First time.
Okay, so, I can see how cool the huge world of the game is. I can see, also, how cool is the dialog. I can even deal with those old graphics.
But god fucking dammit, the gameplay is simply disgusting. I can't fucking walk around without those annoying Action Points.

TL;DR I fucking hate Fallout 1 gamplay. Don't know if too young for this or just retarded.

My all time favorite.
