"Last but not least..."
Places Wild Appalachia in the last and least position.
♫ Tell me lies...
I'd argue Appalachia is one of the best wastelands. That's just me though.
@@RjGoombes it’s an amazing wasteland, just poor execution
@@flydraulics552 what's executed poorly? The wasteland or the game? Cuz yeah the game was executed AWFULLY lol.
@@RjGoombes the gameplay is great but the gameplay promoted by Appalachia is terrible. Scorchbeast A.I. sucked, late game objectives were trivial, and nuke farming got nerfed into the ground.
Matt. Here's an idea for your next tier list video: rank all of the companions in the Fallout series.
I totally agree with you man
Who is #1 then?
@@mosesdouglas4325 It’s gotta be between Boone and Fawkes.
@@sai9368
Boone would be my choice
@@sai9368 fawkes is a legend, he'd be my choice.
The best part about all of New Vegas DLC was how they all connected with each other storywise.
They spent 3 DLCs telling us about Ulysses only for Ulysses to be just another character

It's been years but I will never forget my first fallout 3 playthrough. It was revolutionary to me at the time. New Vegas made me a lifelong fan
i woke up and thought to myself 'how do i lose subscribers?'
respectable
Accurate, S tier is way too bloated.
@@four-en-tee agreed but hard to argue with IMO I’d put dead money and old world blues at A possibility B for dead money I didn’t like losing my gobi.
Same way I wake up everyday. I share my opinion on my channel and some people hate me for it, while I respect them for there opinion.
Matty: Dead money “I love the idea of greed, and leaving behind all the gold bars”
Me: Looking at the 37 gold bars in my storage chest
I remember I took all the bars and got out but its been years so I don't remember how lol

@Zachary Salas Don't forget the perk "long haul."
I did that too but it took me so long to walk from where you spawn back all the way to the dinosaur hotel where I had a house

"I really cant think of a game that has the atmosphere of fallout 3"
S.T.AL.K.E.R.: "Am I a joke to you?"
Exactly that is literally fallout 3 mixed with dark souls
@@Commander67 idk about dark souls, I suppose in the difficulty aspect, I was thinking more fallout with metro and a slight hint of day z, oh and one thing those games combined dont have, a story that keeps you I N V E S T E D.
@@Mi-Go i personally like metro and fallout and think they're pretty good games but that's personal preference and last i checked DayZ didn't have a story i thought that was an online only game am i wrong?
@@Commander67 didnt mean day z for the story, yeah it is, I wasnt tryna be too serious or nothing, just joking, and idk fallout 3 and metro have always had basic stories to me, just an opinion though
@@Mi-Go Sorry that was not my intention to sound hostile if that's what it seemed like i was just curious about Day Z story as i never played that game from all the drama it caused at release i was simply inquiring an answer to the question my bad. Alhough i agree they do have very simple stories
your the only person i have ever known to like Fallout Brotherhood of Steel.
It’s even worse than 76. At least I can have fun with other people in fallout 76 despite it being bad.
I like it to
Kyle Vernon 76 has the best radio, original soundtrack and best art design and a fun map. That is more than Brotherhood of Steel has.
@@kylevernon BoS was multiplier, i played through the story with my dad, it was great
@@shiningmissingno.8788 Oh, didn’t know that. Might give it a try.
Fallout 3 is great but damn that pre-dlc ending where I couldn't send the super mutant in because it "was my destiny" really soured the experience
Yeah if I didn’t get the complete edition I’m sure I wouldn’t hold it in nearly as high a regard, but still high nonetheless.
i preferred the original ending tbh. it makes less sense, but it makes for a better story. the original ending to me is quite poetic, you really are fulfilling your destiny. you started off by following in your dad's footsteps, and you died by doing that same thing. the fawkes ending kinda just feels like a cop-out to me, it's like a win-win no downsides kinda thing.
*SPOILERS FOR RDR1 BELOW*
*FINAL WARNING*
it's kinda like if you could get on one of the horses you send your family away on at the end of red dead instead of facing the government men and getting killed. it makes more sense to do so but it's just a more boring cop-out of an ending for me.
@@jacksonelh did you put a spoiler warning, a big one at that, for RED DEAD REDEMPTION ONE? what?
@@devvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv just in case
@@jacksonelh respect
I cracked up when he pronounced New Reno as “New Raino”
Personally I really enjoyed Operation Anchorage the lore was fun to find and at the end you get an amazing set of T-51 power armor that is almost unbreakable and has great stats and the gauss rifle is amazing to use against any enemy, and you can play the dlc from level 1
Anchorage could break the whole fucking game tbh. That Chinese Stealth Suit was like a god-mode piece of apparel in combination with the Shock Sword.
@@svenschwingel8632 The Stealth Suit is so OP, it's fucking crazy. Infinite Stealth Boy is the most broken thing in any Fallout game and I love it xD
@@josephschultz3301 yes, it allowed for some interesting gameplay indeed.
Honestly I don't think my winterized power armor ever got damaged and I wore it the entire second half of the game. You definitely can get crazy op right out the gate with anchorage
@@travisyagi5276 well the winterized power armor can’t break
"The fallout 4 speculation days" Man remember those Fallout 4 Wishlist videos?
Such good times
Lol then when it came out it was the most average fallout game ever
Member survivor 2077
New Vegas for the win!
@@DarkMatter280 Nah i dont like exploring empty places
Truth is, the list was rigged from the start.
damn right baby, the house always wins...
Honestly I love Dead Money’s theme as a whole and how it’s present throughout the entire game and it’s DLC's, from the main factions being incapable of leaving some aspects of the past behind like the NCR and pre-war America, House and Vegas, Caesar and the roman empire, to even the smaller factions like the Great Khans who can't let go of their hate for the NCR and can only survive the end of the game if they leave the Mojave.
I also like the fact that the Courier is the only one who’s managed to let go of their past, and thus the only one who can change the Wasteland.
I still remember the first time I played Fallout 3, I was at the Philippines for a vacation to see my family and I whipped out my Xbox 360 at 12 at night and randomly grabbed Fallout, right then and there my 9-year-old self was hooked and still am.
That reminds me of the time where I went to the Philippines at 12 years old and I was playing a neighbor's game of Silent Hill 4 demo on the PS2. What part of the Philippines were you visiting?
Dead Money is great until you learn how to steal all 37 gold bars and make out like a cheeky bandit
I never figured out how, I only was ever able to bring 23 I think
@@sirgooch8725 there are some videos on here that can help, but be prepared to save scum and constantly reload because the stealth system is really finicky
@@flannelmcmannel there was a VERY finicky solution of dropping all the gold bars (because they’d stack into a singular one when dropped) and carrying it out of the vault. It worked but god it took way longer than necessary lol
Then it's even better
@@matthewhall1467 I have a solution that works for me just go in with like 4 plasma mines so what you do is grab all of the gold drop em by the vault door before you talk to Elijah the talk to the screen go out pick up the hold pull out the mines and place all 4 individually leading up to the holo-door then just move forward on the door and when he opens it the blast of his radius thing will send you through and him dying by the mines
(Edit any mine for that matter)
You know a games good when the "worst" dlc is still A tier
Fallout new vegas really is the best fallout game.
Hello guys I'm looking to buy my first fallout which one should I buy
@@y2hy2h45 Fallout 3 or new vegas. 1 if you're comfortable with isometric games.
@@y2hy2h45 I’d go with fallout 3 before getting new vegas. It’s great to introduce you into the first person fallout.
@@y2hy2h45 i would really recommend new vegas as well if you're up for it
Fallout 2 was my first Fallout experience, way back in 1999. I was at a friends house playing it on his PC with him. Didn't finish it or even come close, but it had such a profound impact on me that I picked it up a few years later, along with Fallout 1. So so good. The memories I have of watching the sun come up out my window while wandering the wasteland with Marcus and Cassidy are some seriously nostalgic moments of my childhood.
Marcus, Sulik, Cassidy and K9 were an awesome team. This game had such awesome places and characters, New Reno and Broken Hills are unforgettable
Matty:*Thinks FO3 is better than FNV*
Everybody else: "CAESAR HAS MARKED YOU FOR DEATH."
Personally, it is. Fallout 3 and new vegas have their strengths. Fallout 3 has a great open world that feels alive. New vegas has great stories and choices. Fallout 3 still has good stories though like stealing independence, a short fetch quest is still great. Meeting button gwinett at the end somebody forgotten by history was so heartwarming and charming. Meeting the family was also great. Fallout 3's biggest shortcoming is content. There is only like 21 quests in the base game not including the main quest. Fallout new vegas has better quests in a since as each quest is deeper and most have a choice. Fallout new vegas and fallout 3 dlc are equal in my opinion. For me at least The Pitt, Point Lookout, and Mothership Zeta carried the dlc. New vegas dlc is on average better but some bad ones like lonesome road (its not bad just a letdown considering how well they built your meeting with Ulysses up only to let you down and have him be just as flawed and crazy as someone like legate lanius) and honest hearts (that one just sucks like Joshua Graham and zion are fun to explore but the story is so basic). Personally I am not an rpg guy and I don't really really like choice in games so I didn't really appreciate all the choice in new vegas. I am more of an action adventure/ shooter/ kinda rpg fan which is why I like 3 more. One last thing fallout 3 has great difficulty and I felt like I was always strong but never too strong. In new vegas it would go from being overpowered to fighting death claws with a police baton.
I'm not gonna write an essay like the guy above me but I like fallout 4 and fallout 3 more than new Vegas. This is because even though Vegas has a really good story and dialogue it just seems so barren (no shit, it's a wasteland but y'know what I mean). It's a shame that obsidian had a quarter of the time that Bethesda did to make fallout 3 because it would've been sooooo much better
Eh I kinda wrote an essay anyway who cares
Wish I could somehow play Fallout 3 for the first time again. Has to be my favorite video game memory. Getting it for Christmas and playing it all night. Had never played anything quite like it. Walking out of Vault 101 man...
Try the metro trilogy
Dito man. If i had ONE wish..... LOL
Completely agree, there are a few games that I wish I could play for the first time again
Dude its hard because, sometimes you just can't seem to get the feel, to get the immersion, I started fallout3 like a year ago and stopped after a few hrs, I will try again at some point, but sometimes I wish I could setup my brain to enjoy certain games
@👁 well it's not as easy as it seems, it's kinda random imo in life when sometimes you can immerse yourself in games or stories... I've already heard fans of F3 or NW saying "if you can't enjoy those games rpg's aren't for you" but, tbf I started F3 and NW pretty recently, and I struggled to get the feel whereas I was crazy about games I played as a teenager where I would totally put myself into the character's shoes
Far Harbor is just “Fallout 4, but good”
But it's still not New Vegas, so what's the point?
fallout 4 is good but has so little replay ability, i diden't even want to replay as other factions because its so linear, id still argue the open world is better than most games, as all Bethesda games are in terms of exploration, the combat is really good when its not lagy and the graphics are really nice, i really like the settlement building/crafting and with mods, they dont fix the game but Waring settlements and all the guns added, as well as the atmosphere is a reason to spend a couple of hours in the game. still don't get why terminals and lock picking hasn't been improved.
@@robertlaidlaw4592 fallout 4 has pretty good replayability when you download mods It’s the same as Skyrim there definitely the worst RPG’s Bethesda has ever release
@@duskthunder9274 id say skyrim just has allot more replayability, i'll download mods for fallout 4 and play mabey play a couple more hours, i dident realy like most of the custom quest mods as there just not as good as bethesdas, there are a coupple really good alternate start mods but i dont wanna hvae to restart my character for a mod, given how long it takes to level and how boring some of the quests have become, even when i downloaded my favorite mod, live dismemberment which ads so much to combat i found my self only going back for like 3 hours. as said its good just not verry replayable theres no quest i just wanna do unlike fallout 3 or skyrim.
@@robertlaidlaw4592 true the only thing fallout 4 had that is better is the graphics the voice acting and overall combat imo Skyrim’s combat is really shallow and that brings it downs little
I’m glad someone finally sees the worth in The Pitt and Dead Money like myself and some others
Me too king. Both are great. Dark Souls is amazing as well, I see your profile pic.
Since we have similar tastes, if you havent tried Star Wars KOTOR 2, I recommend that to you.
Always said this. It's a toss up between point lookout and the Pitt for me in terms of favorite DLC for 3. I think they're even better than some DLC in New Vegas. But. Dead Money reigns supreme. The sheer brutality, difficulty, dark and despondent setting- fantastic. The writing and plot are a cherry on top.
Another dead money denier.
The great thing about Dead Money is the fact that it acts as a total equalizer for any character build, no matter how powerful. Each player will have to face the same challenges with the unkillable holograms, the cloud and the loudspeakers. And exploring all aspects really pays off with the vending machine concept. Everything in that DLC has meaning and purpose.
I liked The Pitt but it wasn't my fav. Dead Money though I really didn't like. Which is weird as I enjoy survival horror games
I agree with everything but the Broken Steel DLC, it had a great story continuation minus not being able to actually side with the Enclave. I think it deserved a B ranking same with Anchorage
Putting fallout 3 above the original is a crime
I thought Anchorage’s level design was too close and felt more combat dependent than story
Anchorage is like a once in a while play I had to do it twice because I got the gary 23 glitch wrong
@@randomplaceinruralamerica9618 I think that’s the whole point of a combat simulation
@@TheNicoderechte yes
But Fallout’s shooting just isn’t great so having a whole dlc dependent on it isn’t a great idea in my opinion

Aside of jokes, fallout shelter acomplishes its promises andits exactly what you expect, a fun mobile game to play in your free time
@@brunoivan9849 true, its a game thats surprisingly fun
It should be above Fallout 76 which should say alot.
@@Stonegoal it says you havent played fallout 76
Fallout 4 was B tier for me too, but playing it in survival mode brought it up to A or S tier. That experience was unforgettable. All of the games systems coalesced into an extremely fun and well polished 100+ hour journey.
Survival was ok, and does make the overall game more interesting, but they did a poor job of putting it in. If they had it in the game from the start, it would have been better balanced. Too many enemies simply become damage sponges. I do not like the idea of forcing the hardest setting on a player who just wants the added difficulty of eating, drinking and sleeping. The Outer Worlds made the exact same mistake. Let the player decide how they play survival.
Still B to me even with that on, the main story is so bad and you are always a dumb parent looking for shaun
I was looking for this comment, Survival Mode turned FO4 into a completely different game, it made it more of a post apocalyptic simulator.
@@Jmod8 I like how you're trying to project your opinion on to everybody while replying to people who very clearly don't agree with your opinion
Mods make it S tier
Your lists are really good man. You have great rational and understanding of what makes an RPG fun for people.
I wish bethesda start to understand one day
Fallout 4 is criminally underrated the open world design are some of the best Bethesda has ever made.
skyrim and oblivion are leagues and worlds above any fallout world design..
@@funheadnoa4921Skyrim is literally the exact same copy pasted dungeons. Probably the worst in any Bethesda game
@@funheadnoa4921I love oblivion, but try actually exploring the world. It’s empty. The caves are all copy pasted, nobody exists in the open world, and if you wander out into the wilds of the forests you find nothing except oblivion gates. Calling it better than 4 is rose tinted glasses
I want an entire Fallout game based around the atmosphere and world building of Far Harbor. It is one of the best feeling eerie Fallout type of game, after FO1 and FO2.
Fallout: Hawaii
Oh man
Fallout: new orleans?
Just come to Maine in winter it's the same thing
Fallout: CHAZ?
I would call Point Lookout more eerie than Far Harbor
Disagree greatly on Fallout 1. B is a respectable grade but no other Fallout game has had the same atmosphere as F1. Things were just very dark. Plus the Super Mutant army and the Master is the best villain faction of at game.
Respect the opinion though
Never played FO1 or 2, would be interesting if they made either or into First Person.
The gameplay holds it back. Its way too clunky for top tier, but every other game owes a lot to it. If only they could fix the percentage to hit then it would be higher for me.
Fallout 1's mutant ending was one of the darkest things I've ever seen in a video game. Downright disturbing
Agreed, Fallout 1 is not a B tier game. It's definitely an S or an A at the Lowest. I enjoy Fallout 1 alot more than Fallout 2 purely because of its more dark and gritty nature.
@@infinityhand6569 No doubt my friend. I still remember like you that ending was like what a hell. I think my ending was the mutants put me in acid liquid and they got to Vault 13 where you came out and murdered everyone :)
I subscribed when i saw dead money in s tier, truly a man of taste.
That dlc makes me want to commit sewer slide
Dead Money is one of those experiences that you never forget. It felt like i was playing fallout in a resident evil skin.
Exactly!! It was a really good twist to the FNV experience.
I think Fallout 1 had the best atmosphere and story out of the main games every time i think about what i want Fallout to be I think about the dredd and loneliness you feel in fo1 its prob the darkest and most serious of the main games and the story was original when every game after felt a little like a theme park with all the stuff people like from fo1 specially the Bethesda games
I think each Fallout has it's own element but I do agree Fallout 1 is a unique game. For me the thing that makes it one of my favorites is the ending. I won't spoil it for people here, but it's so different from the usual triumphant ending you get in games. It was also interesting meeting people as a vault dweller, Fallout 3 and 4 act more like it's not a big deal, but Fallout 1 that really is your identity.
Fallout 3 is much darker than New Vegas in my opinion.
Going back to Fallout 1 after playing the other games a lot, it's stunning how bleak and lonesome the wasteland is. It has a feel unlike anything else. To anyone leery of the quest timer -- that's only in the first act of the game. I believe the creator Tim Cain has said he regrets adding it, also, but either way you should have ample time. A true classic.
It may be my personal favorite Fallout game as an overall game, since it's the only Fallout to truly show the brutality and horror of a wasteland.
The music, the characters, the atmosphere, the gory effects in combat, the story; it's the most tonally consistent Fallout game ever made.
I'm normally iffy to time limits too, but Fallout 1's didn't bother me for some reason.
New Vegas is definitely second though.
I kind of wish that F.R.O.S.T. was officially canon. That shit has some extreme dread.
I will never understand why you love Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel so much
I told ya! That Champions Of Norrath energy!!!
I love it for the same reason, though for me, my fondest game from the engine was Dark Alliance
@@shiningmissingno.8788 Dark Alliance was great. I was grumpy about it "not being Baldur's Gate" but as its own game it's fun. I've never played F: BOS.
With Honest Hearts, I definitely agree that learning more about Joshua is the single best thing about the DLC. I would, however, like to mention the Survivalist's story. Learning about his tragic life and following the path of his journal entries to the location of his bones is a very touching moment that legitimately made my eyes water a bit.
Love New Vegas. Even with all of its bugs, it is such a fantastic game
I love that The Pitt is your favorite Fallout 3 dlc and Dead Money is your favorite New Vegas dlc. Those are very unpopular opinions, but I absolutely agree with you.
I really liked the pit I thought it was really fun to play. But personally thought it was a little short but all and all fun to play. Just fallout 3 in general is really good and fun to play
@@jackmorrissy3906 Fun to play.
I replayed Fallout 4 so many times just to immediately go to Far Harbor once I was the right level. I loved that DLC so much, the atmosphere was absolutely astonishing.
I hated fallout 4 with a burning passion and even I have to admit that dlc looks really good. I have to ask does it have better writing than the main game with its characters?
@@plugshirt1684 I think so. There’s a lot of good content and I think the factions are written way better and there’s some pretty decent choices regarding them. All the characters feel like their motivations are solid and make sense and stuff so I think you’d enjoy it at least a little.
@@The5Vendetta ok I’ll probably check it out then
@@plugshirt1684 you may want to play through it now, it’s much better. I HIGHLY recommend Sim Settlements 2 mod, it brings hours of content and makes the settlement system so much better. Also, if you can install multiple mods, the mods can really improve this game. Have fun!
@@drachma9639 Between sim settlements 2, fusion city, fourville, project valkyrie, outcasts and remnants, the commonwealth responders and depravity I've got multiple days worth of additional content in fallout 4.
Feel like Matty wanted to put 4 higher but knew people would be mad
It really should have been A tier. Sure it wasn't perfect, but it was an improvement on older Fallouts in many ways. I still find that I can play and enjoy the game, whilst if I go back to 3 or NV, not really, not anymore.
@Timothy Gillis I mean Im not mad but ok
@Timothy Gillis it's all good misread it, fo4 is a good game tho
I know right whenever someone says they like the game a hundred fuckin pricks just come out of the woodwork throwing a hissy fit
The fun police are rampant in the fallout community. You get more shit for liking 4 and 76 than you do for liking brotherhood of steel. It’s not a real fallout game! They yell, while also absolutely adoring baldurs gate 3.
I really like this tier list he gives great explanations on why he prefers one or the other and didnt immediately go NV best bandwagon. The rankings are what's fun as seen with Fallout BOS.
Literally came here for the New Vegas, and I'm GLAD you feel the same way putting it on S tier list ! Fallout New Vegas was literally one of the best & most fun video games I've ever played, whether anyone agrees with me or not
I agree
It's in s-tier in every list I've seen.
It definitely deserves the S tier even though its engine is dated as hell. At least there are mods to improve that and the modding community for New Vegas is alive and well even from its initial release.
FNV is by far the best game in the whole series. FO1 and especially FO2 were amazing in their own right as turn-based isometric games, but FNV brought it all together, in no small regard as a direct result of FO3's commercial success. RPGers criticize FO3 for many reasons, and justifiably so in most cases. But its success paved the way for the development of FNV. Funny thinking about that one Broken Steel quest is named that way 😂
I played through the whole series (well, 1, 2, 3, Vegas and 4) for the first time this year, in order. New Vegas basically took the good parts of 3 and the first 2 and put them together.
If Bethesda was releasing games more consistent this guys channel would blow up massively I think
for sure. right after the Fallout 4 announcement his following grew like crazy iirc.
Been here since before F4, can confirm that my boy blew UP during the months leading up to reveal and the first trailer.
@@draleks9112 haha same man. I'm so happy seeing his channel grow!! Hopefully more Fallout will happen in the future with Xbox owning it!!
@@LittleStrangeMan same, i found matty from his fallout 4 speculation vids. i miss those days. also im glad matty is doing great and his video quality has gone significantly up this year, im happy for him.
@@FezMamba ye I found his videos back when he was speculating about elder scrolls 6 😅
Dude no way you just put Automatron above Broken Steel.
@Timothy Gillis Yeah I respect his opinion too, but I feel if he went back and replayed Broken Steel, his opinion would probably change.
@@sai9368 yeahh, if you can't remember it how can you judge it?
I often joke and refer to Broken Steel as Broken Balance. It kinda ruins Fallout 3. Definitely with perks like Almost Perfect, introducing mobs like Super Mutant Overlords, Ghoul Reavers, and Albino Radscorpions, mean while I can not think of anything interesting it really adds to the game outside of increasing the level cap to 30 instead of 20. But with all the broken changes it added to the game I think I would or preferred none of that new content and kept that level 20 cap. Ironically out of all the DLC for Fallout 3, The Pitt and Point Lookout were really the only good ones. Though personally I think Bethesda is horrible at making good DLC, Skyrim I like none of them, and Fallout 4 it's like Fallout 3, they're hit & miss.
Broken Steel is just an add-on to the base game that should have already been there in the first place. Broken Steel would be like if you took Hoover Dam out of Fallout NV and sold it as a DLC. It should have been in the base game, but they made it into a DLC for some reason. It doesn't add much to Fallout 3 except a good ending that should've already been there. Automatron atleast adds to the game, robot creation was a great addition even if the quest was kinda wack
@@richie2943 ? Not really, the original climax of Fallout 3 was very satisfying with the only complaint I remember people having was that the game ended.
Dude I love Dead Money more then the game itself, so intense, little life, limited resource, I had dreams about that girl who couldn't talk. And for finale trying to run away with all those gold.
I do play fallout 4 alot and the reason why I like it so much is because it feels endless in gameplay
Building settlements (and there are a lot of them)
Starts a relationship with your allies
And by just walking around you always see something different happening most game have that huge predictability and this game hasn't
Bethesda using the metros as a way to get around D.C. was really genius imo. And it fits the game's energy perfectly
I love the metros in 3. That and D.C was super fun as well. As much as I love New Vegas, I really missed that kind of exploration in Vegas.
@@crimsonsamurai77 New Vegas after awhile gets a little redundant. At first seeing all the casinos and neon lights it's really amazing but after playing it repeatedly I can only dream of what the city could have been if it had been cared for like it should have.
Jesus Christ yes I remember this so well, having to figure the metros and tunnels out when I started playing this game when it came out ( I was 12 years old) and had never really played anything like it. This game scared me and creeped me out at first but it’s my favourite game of all time
Weren’t the metros a dude wearing a whole metro as a hat that ran around real fast cause they couldn’t make trains?
Despite the repetitiveness, it worked so well because of how big it made the map feel. It made things feel hidden, and made you work to explore more of the world, where most other games just feel like an open trek where everything is pretty easily accessible.
Unpopular opinion (maybe?): I never play Fallout with the radio on, I like the atmosphere and the score far more without it.
Radio is a way for people to listen to music because they would get bored if your in the middle of nowhere
I bet you'd like Skyrim. The music is so beautiful sometimes I just put my controller down and let my character stand there on top of a mountain while the serene music just embraces me.
I've never used radio in Fallout games apart from just testing the feature
I'm basically the same way. The fallout games always have top tier music. I'll listen to the radio once in a while, but not very often.
I only listen to a radio in fallout 3. I usually like to have no music to explore the devastation of the wasteland, but GNR radio is too good to pass up
Matty: "i love the idea of greed and leaving behind all gold bars"
Me who sell all the gold bars to the gun runners: *stares away awkwardly*
God I love Dead Money so much
It’s a very personal preference dlc. I loved the narrative. I hated the never ending monotony of fighting hunters, there was no unique enemies. Overall, it’s a B tier in my opinion.
I kinda despised it despite some genuinely good elements.
I liked elijah, dog, god, Christine and Dean to an extent.
I thought the setting was interesting.
The combat was somewhat made easier by the fact that I always choose bloody mess and thems good eatins.
However it falls flat on everything else, hunters were boring, the weapons were awful except for the police pistol, the level design is questionable to say the least and can even seem broken and very unintuitive.
I despise how it softlocks you in certain parts if you for instance saved during the fight with elijah and he shields the walls. You just can't win after that which is fucked.
It's also just plainly extremely hard for no reason, like I've beaten the entire thing legit on normal mode but I'm pretty sure it's basically impossible on harder difficulties due to the dreaded radios.

Whats ur opinion on 3 and 4?
@@Playboizay21 who cares what this dude thinks?
@@firstlast8474 Obviously, he does care if he asked. You're probably salty because you love Fo3/4
@@firstlast8474 you since you asked 🤡
I am definitely one of those for fallout 4 "It's a good game, not a good fallout" and I say that purely because of the lack of option. Everything else I enjoy, the map/setting, the factions and encounters, and even the story, I remember when it first came out genuinely had me wondering what was going on. The modding community alone sells this game for me. In fact on steam I'm not ashamed to say I have over 1,000 hours on this game because the modding community keeps this game feeling fresh, new and interesting. So maybe its not a good fallout but it certainly has its up side
Love hearing that Fallout 3 music, brings back a lot of memories, Fallout 3 is my favourite because it was the 1st i played, i was so invested into that game i could still to this day jump back in and know exactly what to do 1st and where to go.
And yet everytime i started playing again i found new things i previously didnt find before and trust my i dont leave a stone unturned
@Miguel _777 I've noticed everytime someone compliments Fallout 3, somebody always shoots them down by saying it isn't as good as NV. Dude we get it, Fallout New Vegas is a better game than Fallout 3 but that doesn't mean it isn't a great game in it's own right.
I think 4 is underrated. Yes, the story and characters are worse, but the gameplay is way better. And for a video game, the gameplay is very important.
Honestly I've only played FO4 and only looked up information on the others so I'm a bit biased but I like the world and asthetic the best in 4. 3 and NV are close though
Nah fallout 4 is mid gameplay cant sace it
Finally, someone praising The Pitt. It's the height of Fallout 3 in my opinion. A DLC that actually convinces me, who is playing a good guy character, to leave the city to the slavers - must be well written.
I played all the main games for the first time this year. The Pitt was great because it felt a lot like the first two games, while the rest of 3 quite, really.
Fallout 1’s ending alone is why it should be ranked S tier.
It’s opinion. To him and many others it’s A or B tier. Glad you enjoy it so much though.
It's an S tier without comparison. The problem is that FO2 is so much better than 1 that you can't put them both in S because of the night and day difference.
@@hamstersplural4334 I really love the connective tissue between fallout 1 and 2 .
@@thevaultdweller8717 I completely agree. They compliment each other well.
Just bought it, guess I actually have to read the "read me" because there's no tutorial and I'm not a click til something happens
Matty, I love watching your videos. I can really share that type of passion for the Fallout franchise specifically, and this video actually made me see some of these DLCs in a different light. Always appreciate your content, and keep doing great things ✌️
personally, I really liked broken steel. It kinda felt like both sides put everything on the line, and when you finally won it felt like the last nail in the enclaves coffin.
Exactly! Or you could be a dick and blow up the citadel instead. Its a big/underrated option. Not as cool as the nuke option in Lonesome Road, but almost.
For some reason putting the word ultimate before a tier list makes me 50% more likely to press on it
Lonesome road really told you if you’re character is strong enough or not..
I waited until I was level 37 to start playing the dlc and I started with Lonesome road, needless to say other then fighting deathclaws it was too easy for my tastes at first and it made honest hearts and old world blues too easy the only dlc I have not yet done on my current character is dead money and Im level 47 right now so the moment I get enough ammo and good armor im basically going to just breeze through the entire thing since most of my skills are max except explosives, unarmed and melee since my character is mostly a gun and energy weapon build mostly focused on using bullet weapons
@@Spartan-B-lt7gc You will lose everthing at the start of Dead Money so dont bother finding anything first.
@@syndicalistcat3138 you can get everything back it’s all just stored in a container
@@Spartan-B-lt7gc Oh i know. I tought you mean you want a good armor to use in the dlc.
I liked anchorage for the fact that you got to explore a tiny bit of the old world. I think more dlc should focus on that so we can see what life was truly like before bombs, that stuff always fascinated me
Imagine if there was a secret ending for New Vegas where you can compromise Hoover Dam and destroy it
The one person to find it never reveals it
honestly, that should have been an option. Yes Man says the damn thing is way too big to destroy but i beg to differ when my character has orbital laser strikes from archimedes, a portable nuclear arsenal and the option to direct an actual nuke in lonesome road.
So it's not like you're lacking in the necessary firepower
I started playing fallout 76, 2 weeks ago. And there is one reason why I really like this game and that is being in the fallout universe with a friend. I exclusively play with my friend and we do everything together, if I’d play solo I’d rather go to fallout 4.
It's great to see more love for Dead Money. I love that expansion and I agree it's the best DLC in New Vegas without a doubt!
Yup!
It turns Fallout into a horror game. I love the creepy new enemies, shady companions, and the atmosphere is so good. If I have a compliant, it's that the villa sections can get confusing in an old school FPS sort of way.
I love the ending slides for that dlc. Dog’s good ending almost made me shed a tear. And the little heart to heart moment you have with Christine as she squeezes your hands and you tell her everything is going to be okay was too cute.
I do love Dead Money and all the New Vegas DLC but I shall respectfully disagree. I think Lonesome Road is the best, but I respect your opinion because Dead Money is great
@@DTOStudios Facts I loved the sensation of being alone with only a robot and the atmosphere. Ulysses was a badass too
Your spot on about hoover dam even the dlc npcs just say “oh yeah a battle for a dam you should go do that as you’ve dabbled in my conflict for a few hours” love New Vegas world and 👍 for giving dead money the recognition it deserves
I started a new game of New Vegas a month ago. It holds up so well. The characters are very fleshed out and you can just see all the paths laid out from the beginning. It’s crazy what a well made RPG Obsidian created.
Great video. Even though I disagree with how you place some things, I think you bring a lot of interesting insights to the table.
Besides Mothership Zeta being an F, think it should be in B tier. I agree. Love Fallout.
Same, I loved the aesthetic of Zeta, and the ending was honestly sick as fuck
I liked zeta alot also, at the very least I think it's better than an F tier
Totally agree..there's no way that Zeta is F tier in my book. It should have been in the B tier.
Ye my favorite part is when you see the earth from the ship
Move Far Harbour to A tier, Honest Hearts to S tier, and I can accept Mothership Zeta in B. I personally also really enjoyed Operation Anchorage, I thought it was a fun little way to experience some pre-nuke stuff, and I honestly love that soo much in Fallout
Nothing will ever beat traveling the DC tunnels for the first time
Ahhh hell no. Thats always my least favorite part of Fallout 3
@@joshuarasmussen6286 the duality of man
Entering the strip for the first time absolutely destroys it.
Old World Blues was what Mothership Zeta wanted to be
7:31 "I've heard it so many times I borderline forgot about it"
Honest Hearts is my favorite NV dlc purely cause it places you somewhere really pretty and you get a Fire Axe
wasnt there allready a fire axe called knock-knock or something in the base game tho?
Utah is such a beautiful state and the Zion National Park is definitely one of my favourite Fallout locations would love a whole game set in Utah
the fire axe was not unique to the dlc. it was already in the base game.
Hot Take, Operation Anchorage is a good DLC.
Agreed, it's at least a B for me.
That is a take lol
I thought it was great considering I wasn’t expecting much.
It has the Best prizes for sure. That and I love pretty much the whole war between china and usa. I always wanted to know a little bit more about it

My boy did Fallout 1 dirty.
Brings a tear to my eye seeing 4 on the same tank as 1 but it’s not my tier list so he can do what he wants I just can’t understand how someone could put one that low
@@vinslungur yeah but that’s the entire point of the game you’re going out into an unfamiliar world which is meant to destroy because you have nothing. The controls take time to get used too but getting destroyed by a single rat when leaving the vault is one of the best moments as it shows you how truly powerless you are in this apocalyptic world. As I said though before it’s his tier list so I wouldn’t really have a problem if he put fallout 4 in a tier and 1 in f tier is completely disagree with it but it’s his tier list not mine. I see I said I didn’t understand why in my original comment but I forgot some people just aren’t fans of isometric games in general compared to 3D games so that’s most likely a large part of it as well
Imo, I think 76 would work if players couldnt just change their "perks/cards" and creatures werent tanks. With the wastelanders dlc (i played once that was launched) it seemed like a very good fallout game. Unfortunately you can't "solo" a lot of stuff in the game. I only played for about a week and that was my takeaway
played fo76 for 1 or 2 months, after the "new fallout game hype" feeling wore off, i saw the game for what it is. the map is excellent but everything else failed in my opinion, the terrible console framerates, bugs and boring quests especially ruined it for me.
@@thatoneguy8515 Was this post Wastelanders?
@@rileymccreanor6492 before wastelanders. i also played again a month after wastelanders released but didn't feel it. sometimes i do miss playing just for the exploration, environment, and base building but the console fps is absolutely atrocious. i get frame drops everywhere i go even in forests along with terrible texture rendering, makes the game unplayable and ruins the immersion.

20:30 i feel like dead money was the 1sr dlc and honest hearts was 2nd. I bought the NV dlcs 1 by 1 as they were coming out and I remember skipping my purchase of dead money cuz of the take your stuff away and bomb collar asoect. I remember getting it after all the other dlcs came out just get that extra 5 levels added to my level cap lol.
Tho for the record i respect that it's your favorite. Just cuz the high difficulty didnt gel with me doesn't invalidate the opinions of other players like you who wanted and enjoyed the challenge dead money provided
I got Dead Money after all the dlc released cause I’m actually a late fallout fan and just started playing through all the games in 2020 and got the ultimate edition of the game.

"The aliens caused the great war"
I I've seen some very compelling arguments that Vault-Tec actually caused the war.
I would hate if alien's were the cause of the great war it would cheapen the messages that the fallout games have
I have evidence that it was p.a.m
@@jeb791 it was vault tech guy said he didn't pay attention to this story which is about the aliens experimenting the world since back in the Chinese trade expansion to the world. And after the great war they was testing the state of human and before we wondered on board and took control of the ship they was planning on destroying the earth with all it's remains except it's museum of people through time.
I kid you all not, I’ve played through fallout new Vegas, all dlc as well, 18 times in the past year and a half alone
Because they’re all 10/10
I loved Lonesome Road because of the atmosphere, the sense of dread and the feeling of being a one man army. Especially the ending where you had the choice of stopping or launching a fucking nuke at whatever 2 factions and seeing the impacts of that. I recommend doing it at the endgame, have some of the best weapons and new ones from it like red glare. All of it makes you feel like a total badass blowing through everything in your way.
when i saw you put far harbour in S , my life was complete , literally complete
Dead Money is definitely the best DLC. Before I played it I heard everyone say it was the worst one so I had low expectations, but instead found myself disappointed with the other DLCs in comparison. Dead Money rocks, I couldn't understand why people didn't like it.
Getting stripped of your gear and fighting a combination of the cloud and the Yangtze bomb collars are a few reasons why people don't like it as much as say Lonesome Road

Keep em coming matty
Agree with all of them except Mothership Zeta. That was a really fun dlc.
Exactly, and it doesnt actually say they started the war, no where in there did it say that, i played through it and thought it was amazing to go to space
Really? I thought it was quite a slog but it did introduce the Repair Weapon item which is cool. The alien blaster isn’t my thing so i didn’t enjoy it much
Nah. It was really fun... for like half of the runtime. The rest felt like a slog
The idea of leaving behind the goldbars was a good idea though. But to leave with those gold bars as you sneaked by Father Elijah, looking at him for the last time, wearing sunglasses as you walk away from an explosion makes you feel so badass.
However, when you emerge from the vault below, your friends dissappear. As if they weren't there in the first place at all. Then I remembered the last lines each character said in the dialogue outro.
"It's letting go."
But, and this is subjective (leaning towards objective), the dialogue with the brains is amazing, hilarious, well written and the voice actors performances are great. There are many options, so you pick one, that's it for that session, next play through, pick something else, opens up new lines and lore. And Dr. Venture voices Dr. Zero, which is 10/10 in of itself.
You mean Doctor 0
