The making of Fallout Tactics: ‘I sound like I’m down on it now, but I still love what we made’

In 2001, the hairy deathclaw from Fallout Tactics became a focal point for criticism of the game's developer, Micro Forté, due to its unconventional design choice of a thick fur coat. Lead designer Ed Orman acknowledged the controversy, stating that while variations on deathclaws could be justified, the design was initially seen as sacrilege. Fallout Tactics is considered a bold offshoot of the RPG franchise, created by a passionate team despite limited resources. Although Todd Howard declared it non-canon, elements from the game have influenced later titles and gained appreciation among fans. Orman expressed pride in the team's accomplishment despite the challenges faced during development.

The Fallout Classic Collection, which includes the original 1997 Fallout, its 1998 sequel Fallout 2, and the tactical spinoff Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel, is available for free on the Epic Games Store until September 5, 2024. The original Fallout is set in a post-nuclear Southern California in 2161, where players, as a vault dweller from Vault 13, must find a water purification chip. Fallout 2 follows the Chosen One, a descendant of the first game's protagonist, who seeks a Garden of Eden Creation Kit (G.E.C.K.) to rejuvenate their village. Fallout Tactics focuses on squad-based tactical combat. The collection is also available on Steam, and subscribers to PC Game Pass or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate can access all three games as part of their membership.
