I've never been the biggest fan of most RPGs, and Fallout falls into that area. To even understand how to play the game, you need to consult the 121 page manual. That isn't a joke or an over-exaggeration. You need to read 100 pages of rules to fully understand how to play the game. To be fair, you can skip over a good amount because the game tells you some stuff too. But if you don't read the full manual, you will get very stuck in multiple sections in just the beginning because you don't even know how the inventory works.

After playing some of this game, I realized why Interplay went bankrupt. Fallout has some good moments, but for the most part it's an underwhelming experience.
