Fallout 1 Speedrun in 4:56

5 minute barrier broken. And that's all that's good about this run.

Rest of the description are the usual ramblings, so you can probably refrain from reading them ; P

Well, can't say I didn't warn, so here goes:
Mistakes cost at least 15 seconds, some are RNG, some not...
Speedclicks, especially at the exit of the base, are tragic.
A pathetic russian version (that apparently is official after all) is used, because some poor idiot f***ed up combat animation frames and now entering and exiting one combat turn is faster by 2/3 of a second. But it also has bad translation and really bad voice acting (EMBEDDED into movies), thus both speech and movie/music volume are turned off. Thanks AlexandrJan for letting us know that such a s**tty version exists! Also, taking advantage of the opportunity, I would like to say 1C and пут-ин сука блять : )

Quality is still bad thanks to Fraps (missing frames most obvious in the cave exit and at base lvl 3) and Windows Movie Maker.

"Hey, bae, i'll be there in 5 minutes"
"Ok, just enough time to pass Fallout 1..."

[djaccountisbfisbx]

Overseer: “Wow, I didn’t expect you back this quickly. So, you found the water chip?”

Vault Dweller: “No but I did nuke the most powerful destructive force in the wasteland I had no idea existed prior.”

[zionseng]

I can’t BELIEVE they still use the same sound for vats

[Urfavoriteactor]

You said get a water chip?? I thought you said kill the master?

[slidylizard]

"Russian woman running at incredible hihg speed"

[amog]

Makes getting kicked out at the end feel more like "ok, but the fucking chip dude" and then you just go back out, pissed as hell

[SmartK]

*wakes up in the morning* "I think I'll go for a run, and blow up some military facility and church with nukes... then breakfast"

[samtimo]

Goes out to get a chip for water
Takes like 5 mins
Overseer:"nah your a changed man that journey you had out there was just life altering..."

[Laxhoop]

I like how they legit didn’t think anyone would do this, so they didn’t program in the need to have gotten the waterchip before you could beat the game. But hey, that just adds another level of freedom this game offers you. It’s one of the best, in that regard.

[clinicashospital]

" where is the water chip ?"
" The what now ?

[pilotero]

*Jacoren:* "Bring me the chip, it is a critical part that allows us to purify the water. Without it, we'll run out of drinking water!"


*Vault Dweller:* "I killed the master"


*Jacoren:* "What?"

[MikeHawk-bgss]

And thats the story of how the Vault Dweller managed to save the entire wasteland. By booking it

[ogeyrrattt]

barges in
destroys two parts of the world
refuses to elaborate
leaves

[CopiousDoinksLLC]

Still one of my favorite speedruns, the ambient sounds make it so good to chill out for 5 minutes and just listen.

[atwocious]

"Go get the water chip."
"Back! Just saved the wasteland."
"I said go get the fucking water chip."
>plays ending cutscene

[Gorvinhagen]

My favourite part about this is the completely frenzied, maniacal spam-clicking for ten seconds on a door.

[Tor-Erik]

On that day, the Vault Dweller forgot about the Water Chip.

[commanderknee]

All tis time, I thought the VATS sound is just some guittar riff they put in the game, because it sounds cool. Now I realised it's suppodsed to be a sound effect of a small window in the bottom left corner opening and closing. The mo' you kno' huh.

[Kabutoes]

liutenant lou's first mistake was wanting to punch the vault dweller

[MV]

How to run out from the lieutenant? I can not repeat that - he always catch me.
