New Vegas is the best fallout in the series

"I would like my opponent to start while also having a game in mind to compete. " My sincerest apologies. There was intended to be more to my opening argument but I was forced to finish my argument prematurely. However, I do have a contender for the best Fallout game in the series. Due to the fact that I was unable to present my case in the previous argument I will present here. Fallout 2 is the best game in the franchise up until this point. My first point is the sheer amount of replay-ability. What other game can play as a too stupid to talk child murderer and a chainsaw weilding scientoligist along with everything in between. And unlike some other rpgs, Your stats actually effect your character. Put only one point into intelligence? Congratulation! Your character is now a Neanderthal. This vast variety of customization provides the most replay-ability in the entire series. Slightly off topic, But I did not approve how fallout new vegas booted you out after completing the main story. In fallout 3 it made sense, Because spoilers. My second point is the lore and worldbuilding. Fallout 2 has one of the most interesting worlds in any rpg. It also builds on the world of its predeccesor. Your character is a direct descendant of the first games character, Giving a sense of continuity to the series. Overall, How the game expands on its predecessor with more information on what remains of the United States Government was fantastic. It had unforgettable characters. The dialogue was incredible. New Vegas had incredible dialogue as well, I'm not trying to bash new vegas, But its amazing how fallout 2's dialogue still holds up today. My third point is the setting. Fallout 2 had a phenomenal post apocalyptic setting, Back in the day that post apocalyptic settings weren't as popular (when even Nintendo has a post apocalyptic setting, You know there is a problem). It was also fairly varied. The strip in new vegas is basically just a remaster of Fallout 2's new reno. So much of new vegas was just desert. Concerning your argument. "Hopefully you would give arguments for why that game is a better Fallout game in the next Round instead of stating why New Vegas isn't. " The resolution was that fallout new vegas was the best in the franchise. All I have to do is prove that new vegas is NOT the best game in the franchise. I don't technically have to pick any one game at all. You also provided a lot of reasons you beleive that New Vegas qualifies as a RPG. Most of these are solid points that I cannot rebut. Perhaps I'm missing something, But you have not provided any evidence that proves fallout new vegas is BETTER then the others. Unfortunatly, None of your links worked. I was able to acsess the first one by searching it out, But the actual links themselves did not work. I will go off what you wrote. Your first point, You gain levels. You do that in all the other fallout games. I wasn't able to see all the possible different choices, But fallout 2 also had hundreds of meaninful choices. If you kill enough people, Other characters will fear you. As I said earlier if you make your intelligence too low your character devolves into a babbling fool that all the other characters can't really comprehend. Your one choice at the beginning to assign stats to other places results in thousands of lines of new dialogue you never would have gotten earlier. The only thing you have presented that fallout 2 does not have is bug stomping. However, A similar perk called animal control can be gotten in fallout 3. Not important, Just a fun fact In conclusion, You have only rebutted one of my earlier points, Have not proved that new vegas is the best game, And I spent too much time writing this out. I look forward to your response
