To me, the original super mutants invasions is one of the definitive examples of unrealized content from Fallout as a whole. It's such an interesting idea that has never returned in any of the other games, or really games in general. I understand that some people dislike time limits, but I think that mods for FO1 can show that having options is the perfect compromise.

I didn't know that was what likely inspired the invasion mechanic; as it almost replicates the same mechanics used in Star Control 2. You have tons of time there, with enough wiggle room to do extra before the Space Spiders try to get to you, and even are encouraged to visit planets that once helped you which leads to *Shenanigans* from a few of them. Same thing here with the muties, you don't have infinite time and your time is rapidly consumed in small events but you had enough wiggle room once more to do quite a bit.

This reminded me of something from the OG System Shock. That game had multiple difficulty sliders, including for combat, puzzles, and plot, and you could play with any combination of them. When turned up to maximum, the plot slider gave you a six hour time limit. I've never heard of that in any other game, and I think it would fit Fallout and the invasion system perfectly.

My main complaint about the invasion mechanic is how soon the invasion starts. 90 days before Adytum is destroyed is really fast. I know I didn't get there anywhere near that quickly first time I played. Also, the gap between Shady Sands and the Vault falling is nearly half the available limit, and you end up looking at over 200 days of there being nothing but you and the super mutants in the world. I feel like they should have added 100-200 days to each settlement's destruction, or started the timer once the player wiped out the mutants in Necropolis, or some combination of the two. Adytum being destroyed 190 days after starting the game or 90 days after hitting Necropolis would make it a lot less punishing I think.

How exactly would you even time the main quest of Fallout 3? Project Purity has been rusting away for like 20 years before the game even starts, so it's not like it's suddenly going anywhere. Beyond that you have the chase after Dad, but what, is he gonna suddenly drop dead? How would you even know about it? The whole main plot would have to be restructured. In Fallout 4, similarly, everything has been going on for many years and it's not until the PC makes an appearance that things start moving. Still, what exactly would you time in that game? "Institute has an evil plan to replace all humans with synths and are going to launch a massive invasion in 200 days"? Again, the whole plot would need to be remade to warrant a timer.

I recall a similar game mechanic existed in Exile III: Ruined World. If you took too long to deal with the various plagues in the land like slimes or giant roaches, entire towns would eventually be overrun and destroyed. While it certainly doesn't take 500 in-game days to finish Fallout 1 (or at least kill the Master as the document says) doing it in time to save groups like the ghouls of Necropolis and the Followers of the Apocalypse would have made for a harrowing challenge.

If the game doesn't make me do it right away, then I'll do all the side quests first. Even though I know it will break progression for me its what I've done since Far Cry 3. A timer or something is great to me because without it "A player will optimize the fun out of a game." Unsure whom the quote came from but I'll be damned if it isn't true.

The soft time limit angle always kind of reminded me of how Star Control 2/The Ur-Quan Masters handled the whole "Doctrinal War" subplot. I can kind of see why the time pressure angle got dialled back on future installments since implementing that kind of thing imposes pretty major restrictions elsewhere in the game design process, but it might be nice to see the fixed/extendable time limit make a comeback as an optional modifier for survival mode at some point? Come to think of it, a few other mid-late '90s/early '00s games with sim elements I could name tried to do something similar. System Shock, Daggerfall, Shenmue and Majora's Mask (As alluded to in the video) for instance. I think Majora kind of got by on making the real-time aspect a core, heavily advertised feature and a conscious one-off -- and letting the player keep the time limit from creating hard fail states by time travel.

One issue i think the developers considered that led to incasions being removed is the fact that possible interactions with Super Mutants and the Children would be extremely limited on a story and roleplaying level, even if you played a character who wanted to join the Master. Settlements seeing the regular NPCs replaced with Super Mutants would generally mean that you'd either be doing a lot more combat, which would require more work to make meaningful, aka counterinvasions, or you'd be stuck interacting with a gradually thinning cast and thus exhaust their available content even faster. Clearly the means for a more tug of war, back and forh sandbox were outside the team's resources and own development timelines.

The fact this feature was half cut, but never fully cut leads to some weird stuff in the timeline. In the official timeline of events from Fallout 2, the Vault Dweller kills the Master on March 3rd(super early compared to most players FYI), just two days before the planned conquest of the Boneyard. That seems really intentional, as most players at the time went after the Vats first, so changing that to ensure everyone survives and having it happen by less than 48 hours of difference all speaks of them working around it. HOWEVER, if this was the case Necropolis would be fine as the Master was killed a few weeks before their fall date. And yet canonically they aren't. Mariposa falls in Mid April canonically, which is actually a week after The Hub was supposed to fall. Granted, stopping the Master should stop the Invasion, but still... I can't help but wonder, if part of this is them trying to work around the bugs(Necropolis is the only place where we can actually see the mutant invasion happen on the ground, killing the master first is the only ending that will ever play), so incorporating that into the timeline was somewhat forced. I get that. Have the Master die a few weeks later, Necropolis falls and The Hub survives, that's all fine. Except in NV they have the Followers of the Apocalypse survive, despite them being the first on the chopping block in Fallout 1 AND despite their ending also being bugged to always end badly even if you hurry due to the spy quest being broken. So either the Master did die on March 3rd and their fine, and the Necropolis should be too, or he died after The Necropolis fell and the Followers should be gone as well. If I was the one in charge of cleaning up this timeline I'd have both the Followers and Necropolis wiped out, the Master and Mariposa taken out close together in Late March and Early April, and The Hub just barely escape full invasion by the skin of it's teeth. That last detail would also explain why Shady Sands ended up unifying the region, and not The Hub(who literally invented and controlled the main currency, Hub Script AKA Caps, and have trading connection to everyone) who seemingly was in the process of doing it in Fallout 1. If they were only JUST saved from full invasion by a few days you could easily say that they suffered massive losses of their Caravans out in the West to the mutants(which is already confirmed in game) and that many people were killed by forward scouting attacks of the Master's Army aided by the Cathedral and Jain(who are also there in the final game). That would set them back massively and by the time they were getting back on their feet in the 2090s Shady Sands would already have unified with Junktown and overtaken them. That makes sense to me.

It’s too bad that we don’t have something akin to Daggerfall Unity that ports Fallouts 1/2 (and maybe Tactics) to a much more flexible engine that makes modding the game much easier. Then we could have mods that add cut content like this and other things that couldn’t be done to time/engine limitations. As well as having various quality of life improvements and bug fixes that make those old games more friendly to newcomers. Some guy has been recreating Fallout 2 as an fps/rog hybrid, but it has some rough edges and certain things can’t be faithfully translated from one genre to another because they don’t feel right.

I don't think Tim Cain and Chris Taylor's stories on why the invasion time limit was patched are necessarily mutually exclusive. Chris and the team may've already planned to patch the time limit out of dissatisfaction with how the mechanic was implemented, or they may have simply went "yeah fair enough we didn't like how it turned out either" after getting the order rather than put up resistance like some other people may've done in the same position.

Fixit and Et Tu partially restore it, but I don't think it's possible to restore entirely due to how much wasn't completed or was in a state where it's unclear what the devs wanted

What’s your favorite piece of cut content from Fallout? Mine would probably be the S’lanter because the prospect of raccoon people with a super fleshed out quest line and society is genuinely intriguing. Too bad they were cut. I hope that someone makes a mod for one of the Fallouts that adds them to the game (An essential feature would be for the player to get a dialogue option that says *pulls out cheese grater* if you have the terrifying presence perk. If you know you know😂).

You know, that's a good point. How many games do have a hard set time limit to the story line like fallout? There's games like Mario or Tony hawk that have a level time, but I can't think of any that do it like fallout. Anyone else think of any?

It's because time limits are stupid, especially in an open world game where the time limit forces you to ignore 99% of the details put into the game. I mean time limits work great for arcade games where they need a reason to force you into feeding the game more quarters, or for turn based strategy games, but open world games and time limits don't mix.

Only Pathologic off the top of my head, and there are a few mechanics in The Void that seem similar like bosses that appear only after a certain amount of time (haven't played that one yet), Ice Pick Lodge really obviously loved Fallout 1 a lot.

7:37 killing yourself by returning to a vault with no chip wouldnt make any sense. Rather, this sounds like you return with the chip, but ignore the master. You reintegrate into the vault, and then after about a month the master invades the vault for fresh meat.

The problem with the restorations is that the design was never finished. There were meant to be ways to add time to the invasions and additional content that came alongside the invasions that would've made it much different.

I hate to just rip on new game design just for the sake of being topical. But it really does feel like older games understood their limitations better. I know it's different studios but for the sake of entertainment what if I told you environmentally Starfield and Fallout 1 are just as empty. Fallout 1 is constructed in a way the player can fill in the gaps and it works. Starfield just tells you in believe in the void and that's it. No imaginion to be had
