I know this is an older game, but...Most of today's games are to hard for a retired person(like me). I'm either not agile enough, or the plot is to complicated. Fallout 3 has a nice balance.

This game is very fun! Despite its older graphics, it looks amazing. I don't know how to put this but the story line is made in such a way that it makes your experience all the better. It may glitch at some parts of the game but it's always a minor glitch and not that huge. 10/10 Must try game (This goes with all the fallout franchise, and most of all New Vegas)

was my first fallout game. i prefer the atmosphere more than new vegas (like how it feels like im actually walking in a nuked city compared to new vegas where its just like 10 buildings and they call it a city) but new vegas has a better story than this game could ever dream of. the side quests do make up for it though and i feel its what makes the game the most enjoyable to play

Pretty good game to play on the steamdeck. Ironically it works on the steamdeck (linux) but not windows 10 or newer. Do not buy this game if you are gonna play it on windows, buy it if you play on steamdeck
