Have you ever played through all of the Fallouts in a row, starting from Fallout 1, all the way through to Fallout 4, including Tactics and all DLC expansions?


And if you haven't, would you consider doing it?

We'll all have our individual preferences on this topic, but for me it's a fairly easy NO. I would not consider undertaking a Fallout "marathon". I have far too many games to get to on my backlog, I very rarely replay a game. Not to mention other demands on time outside of gaming.

In an ideal world I'd love to, and I think whenever the curtain falls on the Fallout series I'll play through them in order, as a final peroration. But time doesn't permit such sentimentality, unless the circumstances call for it, so I'll only get to play through them in order when I make time to 'honor' them.

I did it with Fallout New Vegas. As in before it came out I played, Fallout, Fallout 2, Tactics, Fallout 3 and then New Vegas.

I wasn't that motivated in the days leading up to Fallout 4 to do a marathon.

Would I do it again with Fallout 4? Depends on what the DLC have to offer I guess.

A semi-marathon of the sort. Prior to Fallout 4 I played through Fallout 2, Tactics, and Fallout 3 again. I had already played both Fallout and New Vegas extensively a year prior so I didn't bother playing them prior to Fallout 4's release.

I wasn't able to finish my playthrough of Fallout 3 before Fallout 4 released, but all that was left was some of the DLC. Plan on going back for Mothership Zeta at least, despite how highly reluctant I am to do so. But...that last achievement. I might as well 100%....I MUST.
