Gabriel Stanford-ReisingerThe original Fallout could’ve been real-time, but Interplay didn’t wanna deal with the financials of it. Frankly, it would’ve been weird having the original game be anything but turn-based.
Tim Cain spilled the beans in another one of his Fallout-related YouTube videos about how Interplay wanted the game to be real-time because of games like Diablo. Now, he didn’t want that and preferred turn-based combat, so to shut the marketing team up after they pushed him a few times, he noted how much money he’d need.
He also harped on the negatives of real-time combat and said that should the original Fallout ever get remade, it should never introduce real-time combat in fear of it losing that faithful recreation banner.
What do you think? Do you agree with Cain? Do you prefer turn-based or real-time combat? Let us know below!
