@Oyster Sauce If it winds up being Fallout, does Fallout Et Tu mod count?

The two best games are the ones with the least votes. I'm very disappointed in the HQ right now.

Idea for a new tie breaker: the game that has the total number of badges between voters wins

Fallout

Fallout 1 - Trailer
Set in the aftermath of a world-wide nuclear war, Fallout will challenge you to survive in an unknown and dangerous world. You will take the role of a Vault-dweller, a person who has grown up in a secluded, underground survival Vault. Circumstances arise that force you to go Outside - to a strange world 80 years after the end of modern civilization. A world of mutants, radiation, gangs and violence.

Your immediate task is to find a replacement for the broken water purification controller chip. Without that chip, your fellow Vault dwellers are doomed to dehydration or will be forced to leave the safety of the Vault for the Outside.

The core of the game revolves around your character. Fallout uses a skill-based system to allow you to fine tune your character. As you gain experience (roughly half from combat, the other half from solving adventure seeds and non-combat events), your character will grow as you determine. Combat in Fallout is tactical turn-based. You can take as much time as you need to make decisions. Choose from different types of attacks, with a variety of weapons and attack skills.

Time to beat

22.5 hours - Main + Sides

2nd one is definitely clearest. Does 2 have a similar icon that would still be distinct enough if you use that one?

As I said in the Geneforge thread, that's a problem for future J1M. Hue shifting to a different color is always an option, but in that case I'd probably be cheeky and put two radiation symbols on the badge.

Concept with no background color: Image

There's also this, which would provide continuity in terms of coloration:

I also like the radiation symbol, it doesn't duplicate the colors of another pin.

Radiation symbol makes me think of Stalker instead of Fallout.

It should be either a Vault-tec logo, or Vault boy.

Going to make a true-low IQ (that means no surgery and drug use to boost int to normie level) brawler run. 10 in both LK and AG, 6 PE for Better Criticals. Small Frame (******* are short!) and Fast Shot, tagged Unarmed, Lockpick and Repair. He's actually a kind-hearted ****** who dindu nuffin but still has a tendency to fiddle with containers because, well, ******.
This evil crack game doesn't allow me to pick skin color but whatever, just pretend that he's an albino ******.

Image

btw you can get a **** from literally the first NPC you'd meet in the game. Niggerape might be a dumb ****** ape, but he still has more brain cell than your average gen Z.

What about the Overseers mangled body from the end.

Realistically, if you can fit it, the original bumper plate look saying 'FALLOUT'

The T-51b Power Armor helmet might be a good fit for the badge, the one that's used on pretty much everything related to the game. Looks very badass.
Also the military aesthetic reminds me of HQ much more than the vault boy.

Ok, the good guys won, tho I wouldn't be too upset with a Grimoire victory. But *** Defect? Sure, once we run out of actual RPGs to play.

Agreed, but the power armor helmet doesn't look good at that resolution.
