Fallout 2 vs Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel
Fallout 2
Fallout 2 is the next exciting sequel to one of the world's largest post-apocalyptic-themed RPG franchise, Fallout. Featuring the franchise's iconic open world where you are free to do whatever you like (you can opt to not follow the storyline as well), this sequel is jam-packed with even more varied characters, creatures and storylines that brings out the humanity in its players as they traverse the vast wasteland.As usual, the game provides players with in-depth character progressions in the form of its hallmark S.P.E.C.I.A.L. traits system along with the range of improvable skills that are often critical to ensure your survival in the harsh post-fallout world.
Fallout 2 doesn't really deviate much from the original first game, perhaps mainly because the developers are trying to play it safe, but it is still a great game to play.
Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel
Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel is another spin-off, aside from Fallout: New Vegas, in the Fallout franchise, but unlike New Vegas, this game went halfway back to its roots in terms of its looks (with isometric graphics) while the other half is filled with an amazingly-strategic, turn-based and squad-based combat system. The squad system works well in this game mainly because the storyline in this game is based on the famous/infamous Brotherhood of Steel and apparently, you'll be playing one of the squads, and partly because you have the freedom to actually customize every member of your squad so you could specialize their skills or have them be as versatile as possible.Despite being one of the most overlooked Fallout games, Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel is a very strategic game that allow Fallout's younger fan base to catch a glimpse of the old-school Fallout games while still retaining a certain amount of modern-ness in its gameplay back when it was first released. After all, it's the most recent Fallout game that truly pays homage to the really old Fallout games.
