Because Fallout 1 & 2 have extremely vapid writing and John Gonzalez's writing in New Vegas elevated the series to place it wasn't before, even if New Vegas lacks the roleplaying options of the isometric games. The only people that think otherwise either haven't played the old games in decades or just pretend to play them online.

Fallout was more than just the writing, and NV has some of the most overrated writing I've seen in video games although given how shit vidya writing is in general even shit writing is considered above-average. Either way this is a bait thread and NV is not retro.

because obsidianfags are literal cultists.

it's almost funny how a company that makes some of the most boring RPGs i've ever played can have such a dedicated following.

I think because of mods , fills out the experience. Any game that still has mods being made for it eleven years after release is going to be talked about in a highly positive way.
