    I’ve gotta say, the OG combat armor really nails the whole ‘retrofuture’ style, I think I’ve just got a fondness for the grit of Adamowicz’ designs. And honestly, who doesn’t love the NCR Veteran Ranger armor, I had to stop myself from using it as the image just to not taint the discussion.

      retrofuture

      exactly, fallout 1/2 felt amazing in that regard. the newer games kind of fail at that. Fallout 4/76 try to be more retro, but nothing bests the originals. They’re masterpieces (especially fallout 2 lmao)

        Truly, I don’t think the designs of the Advanced Power Armor and the M72 Gauss Rifle will ever leave my mind. It’s a real shame we won’t get to see that style again as the series continues.

          It’s a shame we won’t get games on the west coast again at all. I loved fallout 2’s enclave and it’s humor lol

          east coast games are always undeveloped as shit and too serious, fnv, f01-2 are way better imo
