Why is the voice acting in Fallout 1/2 so much more memorable than in the later Fallout games?
>>
Back then you had to hire actors from a theater

Good voice acting.

Because most characters didn't have voice acting, just text. The characters who actually had voice acting stood out more.

The Enclave were the best.

I just started watching a metalcanyon playthrough of FO1 on Youtube because I keep hearing good things about it but I've never played 1,2, or Tactics. So far it seems pretty interesting and I understand you can deal with the water chip issue early on and then you have time to properly explore and deal with other factions.

I might get 1,2, and Tactics since they're cheaper than dirt but I'm using Windows 7 and heard they don't run on it. How much modding would I have to do to get them to run on Windows 7, anyone know?

The limitations placed on Black Isle helped.
They couldn't afford a lot of voice actors, so they had to make do with a few NPCs with actual talking heads and memorable lines.

If you get the GOG version and get the restoration patch, it runs fine.
>>
Because in Bethesda games 5 people voice all of the characters.

Does it allow me to run the game in 1080?

Because they didn't keep hiring the same 10 or so dickheads who do english dub anime like today.

Maybe they shouldn't have gotten big name VAs

Because only a few NPCs were voiced. And when they were voiced, it was good.

Fucking Megabyte. RIP, you magnificent bastard.

When you hire quality, you get quality. Developers take note.

Theatre peasants are pretty good at voice acting unlike 2017 voice "actors"
