Which Fallout game is the best for newcomers — a short guide comparing the first hour of Fallout 3, Fallout New Vegas, Fallout 4, and Fallout 76.
So I’ve decided, after watching Ella Purnell traipse humorously about the wasteland, that I want in on this Fallout thing, too. So where does an aspiring Wastelander, one who has little experience with the series, start? The answer to that is usually “at the beginning,” but I’m gonna focus on Fallout 3 through Fallout 76 because they’re the most popular games, and critically, I have a Game Pass subscription I haven’t used in a while.
Making bullets, armor, food, or weapons on the fly is fine — though I think the spirit of Fallout is better served by scavenging the items you need to survive — but base-building is a bit too much. I’m in the wasteland to loot shit and find my son, not spend way too much time in menus, sorting through schematics, and tinkering with literal building blocks. Thankfully, if crafting isn’t for you, I don’t think it’s a system you have to engage with and can largely just ignore.
