The Strange History of The Fallout Games

From Fallout 1 to Fallout 76, this video game series has had quite a turbulent run over the last 27 years.

We trace Fallout's long history, from its origins as a top down character RPG in the 90s, to the modern looter shooter with lite RPG mechanics represented in Fallout 4, aiming to answer the question: would it have been better if Bethesda stuck more closely to the design roots established by Black Isle Studios?
