Keith Valken Lionheart Fallout 3 is set 200 years after the war. You are correct. Once you've played all 3...multiple times..they all run together a bit. :3

Thaddeus Grimlock Does anyone else love Harold? Hell, He's in all the games I was pissed off when the moral choice was to kill Harold in Fallout 3. He shouldn't have died, he was the friendliest ghoul in the Wastelands.

I din't kill him i persuaded him that he was giving life to the wasteland

I'm pretty sure he's a Ghoul.

I'm pretty sure he's a Ghoul. Actually no, he went on a exhibition with The Master (Fallout 1) and several other explorers to investigate mutant creatures and came across a military base full of FEV. Richard Grey (The Master)0 fell into a vat of FEV and became the Master, The others died, and Harold was somehow mutated by the FEV, but he doent know how cause he blacked out. Because of his Ghoul like appearence he spent a lot of time in Ghoul settlements and a tree started growing out of him (Bob) and then over whelmed him in the capital wastleland where he became a treeman(or mutant). Hooray for Nerdism!

It appears you're right, sir Grimlock. Still, RIP Harold and Bob, kindest soul in the Wasteland.

Sadly I've only got the GOG.com version of FO 1 and 2, and vanilla FO3 ... got it before there was a GOTY edition and well this isn't the thread for that.
Yeah I'd say only parts of FO3 was steamy, and even then, eh.
Wait there is such a thing as Nuclearpunk ... Linkies?

Well, at the risk of the fact someone may have said this already, Steampunk and Post-Apoc actually naturally have some small things in common, to the point that a fusion of the two styles/genres is actually pretty easy to pull off.
They both present you with a world that's low-tech by today's standards and yet it's relatively easy, within those guidelines, to put together items that perform better than tech you might find today and have more functions than our technology is capable of.
The major difference is that Steampunk is a little more abundant in its tech, and the focus is on a changing world that is achieving a sort of progress, whereas Post-Apoc settings focus on survivalism in a world that got too big for its britches and, usually, attacked itself to oblivion like a masochistic preteen in a cutlery shop, often via nuke.

True enough, I did like some of the clothes I've seen that grab a bit from the Post Apocalypse scene.

It's more retro futuristic, but things like the railway rifle, goggles, earth tone outfits and such are steamy I'd say.
The retro futurism is especially evident if you have the Mothership Zeta addon.
Also, just a correction, the Great War that put the Fallout world into it's current state took place in 2077 and lasted mere hours as bombs and missiles flew. Fallout 3 takes place in 2277, 200 years later.

Isn't fallout considered to be Atom-punk?
