“Oh hell yeah, I'd recommend this game to anybody. I actually have way more hours than Steam is gonna show. The GECK being available to players for free makes this game an awesome dive into mod and development skills.…”

“best fallout game to date few crash issues here and there just constantly quicksave and youll be okay now to wait for the remaster, that may or may not come out”
“Unfortunately this game crashes after about 10 mins of gameplay. I've tried some of the posted fixes and none of them work. As for what I was able to play seemed like an ok game.”

“Aside from frame stuttering and having to install RivaTuner to lock the frame rate at 64 to fix it (for the most part) since I don't have all the DLC for mods that patch and fix 95% of the technical issues, it's a…”
“I like eet. :) Unfortunate victim to technical debt, download the 4gb memory patch and it should run fine. Haven't needed any other mods.”

— a player, Steam review · 15 hrs played“10/10. Excellent story where the choices you make strongly impact the ending. Impressive for the short amount of time the game was developed in. Great RPG elements. Very re-playable. The Vanilla version is very buggy with quests and often crashes on loading screens, so mods are…”
