Reasons you should play Atom RPG
I figured out why I like Atom RPG so much.
It's because it's inspiration is from the classic fallout games:
Your OC has a reputation to uphold
The dialogue system is varied and dialogue choices depend alot on your skill sets
The world end states also changes according to your actions.
Also according to your actions, some factions and quests will completely be shut out if you screw up. For example, in one quest I chose the wrong dialogue choice and the person disappeared from the game! The quest failed, basically. I had to reload.
Many quests can be resolved peacefully with dialog/imtimidation and/or money.
There's a crafting system that's not skin deep! Clutter means something.
The wasteland has a good random encounter & escape system based in player stats
New perks can be learnt with quests! For example, giving pre war Vodka to a fisherman in turn has him teach you how to take parts from insects ('entomologist' perk)
The main story is interesting- lots of twists
The side quests are a lot of fun
