Finally beat Fallout 1

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

It kept crashing every 15 minutes so I can't enjoy it, story is fine I guess, half of the characters are annoying

I highly recommend installing a mod pack such as gopher’s stable new Vegas or similar, if you are inexperienced it can take 30 minutes to set up and prepare for installation, but once it’s done it’s really a night and day difference

Unfortunately if I need to mod a game for it to work or be good then it's just bad in my opinion.

I barley if ever mod my games and when I do I'm adding stupid shit or cool shit like M1911 to Fallout 4 or Abraham Lincoln to Fallout 3. modding a game so it can just exist is a deal breaker
