Picked up the Fallout RPG starter set, and I’m curious to hear people’s opinions on it.
From what I gather, it released in 2021, but the first time I saw it was in the store a few days ago - on display no doubt due to the success of the TV show.
I’ve always been a fan of the Fallout setting, and from what (very) little I’ve read while flipping through the rulebook, it seems to be almost a mixture of d20 and Fate? The rules seem to have some crunch, while also allowing room for roleplay - again, from what I can tell at a glance.
I’m curious if anyone here has run this game, and what you thought. Do the rules make sense in practice? Did you have fun with it? And if you played through the example module, how was it?
GIRPS is nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be. Most rolls just boil down rolling 3 dice, adding the totals, and comparing them to your skill level.
