I've played a few hours and its been solid so far. Hot fake pixel chick's in bikinis and shit. I mean, a black Moneypenny, whatever - but overall it appears it might end up being really solid game. The recent Hitman's were great.

I did the thing, might as well. Love it or hate it there will be plenty to post for a while about it I'm sure.

Are the FO RTS games good?

I’ve tried FO3 and New Vegas but I got about an hour into each. Not really my thing, I just don’t like games with menu diving tbh. (Starfield, s.t.a.l.k.e.r., etc)
There is no Fallout RTS that I know of, at least when RTS means real time strategy. There was a Turn Based Strategy game called Fallout: Tactics; I played it when it was released and from what I remember, it was ok, but nowhere near as good as Jagged Alliance 2.

Fallout 1 and 2 would be considered turn based isometric western RPGs (wRPG). A main component to them is that you can't do everything, in that you have choices, including how you build your character, and consequences for those choices. A funny, unexpected example is if you make a character with extremely low intelligence, they can barely talk and NPCs respond differently to it.

Not sure what exactly you mean for menu diving, other than having a shit ton of inventory to sort through (Fallout 1 and 2 has limited inventory space), but all the good western RPGs are going to have various pages/menus for leveling up and moving around the map.

The first two minutes of Mug’s review pretty much sold me not to try this one. Personally don’t like playable movies or story first games.

After Uncharted 4 I was done with that style of game (and I didn't like The Last of Us) and when watching streamers play Indiana Jones and 007 the Uncharted games were all I could see in them. Few games gave me the "been there done that" vibe as much as watching Indiana Jones. That being said I would probably play either one if they were 20$ Canadian (0.0032cents American) and hope both get awesome sequels.

There is cinematic parts but the game has plenty of action and using the environment. The pacing is similar to a Bond movie in that you have some quiet/less action oriented moments between major set pieces, but shit gets more intense towards the end. He also bangs lots of hot chicks in the game - first one in the game he does, he skips out before she wakes up lol

Far more action than the Indiana Jones game I would say (Jones is more solving puzzles and ancient boobytraps).

You didn't like new vegas? Heresy! I want my drives back! ;)

I was there when it was released and it was mind blowing. OG Obsidian always did other IP's best. Just replayed it recently now that I live basically in the area that is set in.
What is a FO RTS? Even Tactics was turned based.

I got it for free a long time back (it was some Fallout 76 purchase perk when the game first came out), but have never loaded it up before
