One of the biggest games of this season required an expert. To talk about the huge, dialogue-driven computer RPG Fallout 2, we got the help of ZA/UM writer and narrative designer Justin Keenan! Our #1 game, Disco Elysium, certainly has a lot of the DNA of games like Fallout 2, but are these old RPGs TOO MEAN to stand up to today's perhaps more inviting entries? Also, the Fallout universe stands alone in terms of style and tone, so that has to count for something!
