6. Fallout 3

I've never played Starfield, and I never will.

xbrokenbutterflyx.bsky.social•37 days ago

I'm not really a fan of Fallout. I enjoy Fallout 4 for its gameplay. I can acknowledge that FNV is well written but I can't stand to play Fallout 3 long enough to get through it.

Fallout 3 is the worst Fallout game and I'm tired of pretending it's not.

silkythick.bsky.social•37 days ago

Thank you for being the only person so far to put Morrowind above Skyrim. They're close but Morrowind was so SO much more detailed, since they had to rely on the writing and dialogue to drive the story instead of just having the player follow a compass point.

literallyjustadog.online•37 days ago

The fact that fallout 76 isn't last made me irrationally angry.

anyaustin.bsky.social•37 days ago

love 76.

literallyjustadog.online•37 days ago

I love the additional lore, but can't play it for more than an hour or so without getting bored anymore. It just doesn't feel like fallout to me :/

khuma.bsky.social•37 days ago

1. New Vegas
2. Morrowind
3. Oblivion
4. Skyrim
5. Fallout 3
6. Fallout 4

anyaustin.bsky.social•37 days ago

sorry I should've just said "these games in these series that are the new ones that are in this style and not those old ones with the little guys running around" rather than calling New Vegas a BGS game

cutebitchvanessa.bsky.social•37 days ago

Bethesda didn't even develop New Vegas, but I do agree that it's still better than most of their games.

creestab.bsky.social•36 days ago

Play Oblivion

tavitafish.bsky.social•37 days ago

Since New Vegas was only published by them, I'm assuming that published counts so Pirates of the Caribbean sails to number 1

anyaustin.bsky.social•37 days ago

oh shoot I forgot! And DOOM!

thatmetalnessie.bsky.social•31 days ago

I've heard all the arguments that it's just a lot of fetch quests etc, but I came to Skyrim at a time when I really needed a comfort game. It became my home away from home, like, a whole 2nd life for me to live. I have so many special memories of playing it and I still love it now.

schmooolie.bsky.social•36 days ago

jort-hk.bsky.social•36 days ago

Oblivion, New Vegas, and Skyrim are the only ones I actually felt engrossed with and enjoyed most of my time with. Starfield is the only one I didn't even bother to beat.

foreveranony.bsky.social•37 days ago

Morrowind
Skyrim modded to hell
Skyrim vanilla
Oblivion

I only play in 3rd person and Oblivion on console is unplayable due to a fucked up camera, so I have put no real time into it. Been meaning to try again on PC but uhhh 💤💤

rhysbnuuy.bsky.social•37 days ago

Interesting. Why do you prefer 3 over new vegas?

probablypedantic.bsky.social•37 days ago

Absolutely disgusting.

juicygloober.bsky.social•37 days ago

In before the angry mob descends on Austin!

1. Fallout New Vegas
2. Skyrim
3. Morrowind
4. Fallout 3
5. Daggerfall
6. Oblivion
7. Fallout 4
8. Elder Scrolls Online

(Not played Starfield or the old Fallouts, and only played about 5 mins of F76 so I can't really judge it)

anyaustin.bsky.social•37 days ago

I really ought to play Daggerfall at some point. Does the overhaul mod ruin what's special about it or is it good?

juicygloober.bsky.social•37 days ago

I've only ever played the Unity version so I can't really tell you. From what I hear, it's pretty faithful?

There's certainly a near infinite amount of unremarkable places in that game.

scribblersys.bsky.social•37 days ago

it's kinda like playing an N64 game on an emulator, with massively increased rendering/texture resolution and framerate, but otherwise mostly the same game

scribblersys.bsky.social•37 days ago

so mainly it depends on whether you value the classic low-res artstyle, or being able to see miles off into the distance past what anyone in 1996 would've been able

clownsgohonk.bsky.social•37 days ago

The Unity version? No I wouldn't say so, it's essentially identical. It's good (imo).👍

hijeero.bsky.social•37 days ago

Bruh I forgot eso. I have like 2k hours in eso. 😭

juicygloober.bsky.social•37 days ago

Understandable, I almost forgot it was an Elder Scrolls game when I was playing it 😅

nossemanden.bsky.social•37 days ago

Starfield at number 3 is brave. Either way, here’s mine (of what I’ve played):

1. New Vegas
2. Skyrim
3. Fallout 4
4. Fallout 3
5. Starfield

I am terrible at ranking things subjectively but here's my attempt:

5. FO3
6. Oblivion
7. Morrowind (caveat that I barely played it)
8. FO76 (caveat that I played it on launch when it was more broken and had less content)

new vegas definitely above 3 both otherwise i don't have many opinions honestly

max.transsexual.beauty•30 days ago

as a trans woman i respect that you put fallout 3 before fallout nv

for me that one just spoke to me more

Fallout 76 isn't a video game so it doesn't make the list

1. Fallout New Vegas
2. Fallout 3
3. Starfield (I think I get what you mean about it being indifferent in a cool way)
4. Skyrim
5. Oblivion
6. Fallout 4 (the Orson Welles radio mod does help the game a lot though)

anyaustin.bsky.social•37 days ago

nice we have similar opinions

jambalyaenjoyer.bsky.social•37 days ago

It's why I dig ur channel

cavegift.bsky.social•37 days ago

oblivion is weird because it's probably objectively the most broken and bad of all of their games but it's also probably my favorite

typo2d.bsky.social•37 days ago

It's broken in the most fun possible way. Playing Oblivion is like playing GTA3 with all of the chaotic npc cheat codes on. You never really know what's going to happen, but it's going to be entertaining.

dyletha.bsky.social•37 days ago

The fact that I played it in middle school makes it pull me back in with the nostalgia.

annaynay.bsky.social•37 days ago

1. FNV
2. FO4
3. Skyrim
4. FO3
5. Oblivion
6. ESO
7. Morrowind
8. Starfield

Ik putting morrowind so low is controversial but that game never really clicked with me.

blazedff8.bsky.social•37 days ago

I can see your point here because it does make internal sense but I just can’t get there. Starfield is just too bland

Just kidding, I’ve never played Starfield, I just get my opinions from other people

anyaustin.bsky.social•37 days ago

bigbadnickwolf.bsky.social•37 days ago

More than anything I wanna know why Fallout 4 is at the bottom? Not that I mind, I am just really interested in the reason.

luciferpresident.bsky.social•36 days ago

1. FNV
2. Skyrim
3. Fallout 4
4. Fallout 3
Haven't played the others lol but I imagine they'd mostly be below Fallout 4. I don't have any nostalgia for Fallout 3 and was only able to play it in like 2020 so my experience with it was honestly awful.

uchowderhead.bsky.social•37 days ago

I finished oblivion but I have started and not finished skyrim at least 10 times. It's a great game I just can't get it done. Lol

roninka.bsky.social•37 days ago

I played Fallout 3 as a kid and Skyrim and then about 2 hours of Fallout: New Vegas because the game kept crashing. Let me tell you those two hours were better than the multitudes of hours I spent in Skyrim.

vlvx.bsky.social•37 days ago

Oblivion is really good you should try it.

alice-art.bsky.social•37 days ago

F4, FNV, Skyrim, (modded) Daggerfall, Starfield, Oblivion, Arena, F76, F3

I haven't played Morrowind enough to really have an opinion on it.

doodlebard.bsky.social•36 days ago

What puts 3 above NV? Nothing wrong with that, just curious since it's usually the other way around for people.

williammichael.bsky.social•36 days ago

Has a lot to do with expectations and 3s open world. NV is loved by diehard fans who want more depth and 3 is a more passive experience, harder to bounce off of.

untouchedwagons.bsky.social•37 days ago

I have the most hours in fallout 4 but I'm not blind to its numerous flaws. I'd still probably rate it #1 though.

janeycakes.bsky.social•37 days ago

1: fnv
2: skyrim
3: Morrowind
4: Oblivion
5: fallout 3
6: fallout 4
7: the little I’ve played of daggerfall

lynnwinx.bsky.social•37 days ago

1) Daggerfall
2) Skyrim
I've played only five hours of Morrowind. Never touched the others. I have listened to over 1000h of TES lore videos, for sure, but that doesn't count either.

therealother1.bsky.social•37 days ago

1. New Vegas
2. Outer Worlds (I know its not produced by BGS but its the same exact style)
3. Fallout 3

Haven't played Starfield or Morrowind

edward86.bsky.social•37 days ago

1. Oblivion

(thats the only one ive played)

bmaleno.bsky.social•37 days ago

Starfield over Skyrim is surprising!

I also put Fallout 4 at the bottom.

hijeero.bsky.social•37 days ago

1. New Vegas
2. Oblivion
3. Starfield
4. Skyrim
5. Fallout 4
6. Fallout 3

I have so much nostalgia for NV and Oblivion my opinion is heavily skewed. Starfield's muted and chill vibe does a lot for me, and you can live on Enceladus. Very good.

aqua.elderscrolls.social•37 days ago

Have not played
7. Oblivion
8. Morrowind.

The top 3 are essentially tied and 5 and 6 are not that bad.

dpricefilm.bsky.social•36 days ago

I’ve never played a Bethesda game, but the music of Skyrim used to lull me into peaceful slumber as I watched my roommate play it, and it has accompanied me on many a hike with a myriad of other great video game music.

tirithnampat.bsky.social•37 days ago

I've only played Skyrim, and briefly Oblivion and Starfield.
Skyrim is peak, Starfield doesn't seem bad (though I prefer No Mans Sky, which you should do a video on) and Oblivion was okay. It probably deserves better, but the graphics are hard to play. I'm excited for the remake.

notsamforwork.bsky.social•37 days ago

NV and Morrowind tied for the top, the rest are tied for second I guess idk doesn't matter to me

silkythick.bsky.social•37 days ago

The only correct opinion

max27183141.bsky.social•37 days ago

Starfield above Skyrim is an interesting take, any particular reason?

anyaustin.bsky.social•37 days ago

Starfield has a nice undercurrent of feeling sort of indifferent to the player (at times) in a way that can be really annoying, but also sets it up so that moments of discovery (as rare as they are) can be really wonderful and special.

mechmischief.bsky.social•37 days ago

Morrowind was amazing, but it just has no replay value for me. I guess Id switch it with Skyrim (and omit NV)

dart-highwind.bsky.social•37 days ago

New Vegas
Fallout 3
Oblivion
Morrowind
Skyrim
Fallout 4
Fallout 76

No interest in Starfield

existentialish.bsky.social•37 days ago

i have not played starfield but putting it over morrowind makes the lil guy in my brain start smashing buttons malevolently. (i am biased, that was my first rpg).

1. Oblivion
2. Morrowind
3.Fallout new vegas (obsidian obv but like u said, lil guy running around games)
4. Fallout 3
5. Skyrim

existentialish.bsky.social•37 days ago

I find it hard to objectively rate games. So much of what I remember when I think of my favorite games is the context I was in at the time. I played Oblivion sick out of my mind for two weeks straight in a near fugue state. Bungling through Morrowind as my first open world rpg endeared it forever.

owlstra.bsky.social•32 days ago

1. Oblivion
2. Skyrim
3. Fallout: New Vegas
4. Fallout 3
The others I don't like nearly as much as these

I love Elder Scrolls and I have very fond memories of Skyrim but I can't really do that with Fallout 3 and New Vegas which is why I rank them lower

Some really hate 3 but I love it still too,,,

shecorp.bsky.social•37 days ago

Doom 2016
Wolfenstein 2

adobecult.bsky.social•37 days ago

ive played 130 hours of fo3 and 76 hours of fnv and can't fathom why one would rank 3 above new vegas but i respect your commitment to contrarianism

zvarrit.bsky.social•37 days ago

I'm not fan of Fallouts. Too constrained by their main story (no fully optional guild etc), and I always find the fantasy of "wanderer in post apo" too limited in roleplay.

1. Skyrim
2. Daggerfall

5. Morrowind
6. Fallout 76
7. Fallout 4
8. Fallout 3
