    Fallout 2 is fulla proto-reddit humour imho. And the reason most people who've played glom onto Frank Horrigan, or Vault City, or infiltrating Navarro Oil Rig is if they tried to think too hard about some of the other bits, their overburdened cringe receptors would explode.

    Go on, make me re-enact a scene from Monty Python again, see what happens fucker.

      Umm actually it's one of the earliest games where you can get gay married, bet you feel dumb for calling it reddit and cringe now smuglord

      spoiler

      Please don't look up the particulars as to how that happens

      I'm afraid we're fresh out of Monty Python scenes.

          Tactics is a decent Jagged Alliance knock off. At least the first half.

          The last half game is basically a logistics simulator for how much 50 cal ammo you can buy/loot/hoard versus how much you need to use to pass a level and/or kill enemies that if you drop them you'll get etc a bunch of 50 cal.

          You have 2characters in the party that can use a browning 50 cal, the rest are support for them.

          Pretty fun though.

      Having played them recently I think Fallout 1 is better than 2. It's the right balance of cringe and much tighter story wise.
