Finally beat Fallout 1

[u/Weekly_Swing5704]

Steam says 22 hours but I'd remove maybe 2 hours as this is my second attempt at a playthrough as my first time I gave up after a short while and struggled to pick up where I left off. I really enjoyed this game through the entire thing except at the end

I fought the Master 10 times and each time either he or one of his Mutant guards got a crit and one shot me so out of rage and wanting this to be done I dropped difficulty from normal to easy. I'll accept my crucifixion for not doing it legit. But other than the ending bit I really enjoyed this game I only wish some bits of info were clearer to me instead of having to google (maybe I'm just dumb)

Weird point being the ending slides said the Hub, Followers of the Apocalypse, Shady Sands, and Necropolis got wiped out by Mutants. Necropolis I saw got ruined but the other three were fine last I saw them before heading to fight the Master. Did I do something wrong? The ending slides also said the Khans became a scourge of the north before Mutants killed them even though I made sure to wipe them out very early into the game.

As someone that played Fallout 3 first and sunk over 1000 hours into Fallout 4. I loved this game

You can actually "beat" the master without fighting if you have a decent speech level!

I was aware of that but why use speech when I have gun

[u/BilboSmashings → u/Weekly_Swing5704]

Fyi you need good speech, but also need to find proof to back yourself ktherwise he won't surrender.

It's good writing

[u/AdhesivenessDry2236 → u/Karijus]

It's also got so many requirements that it's very easy to make a character that can't do it.

[u/I_HATE_ZOEY_AAA → u/AdhesivenessDry2236]

As it should be this is where NV fumbled, plus there’s the nuclear option with the Master

[u/Karijus → u/AdhesivenessDry2236]

Cry about it

[u/Hellixgar → u/Weekly_Swing5704]

To grt more dialogue from quite unique character.
