They all right. I think there is some nostalgia goggles there, same with Planescape: Torment.

Decent writing, for a game, but the isometric view isn't great and the gameplay is clunky. Plot and theme-wise it holds together better than Fallout 3 -- which has plot holes so big you can drive a bus through them -- but FO3 was a lot more fun to play, at least the first 2-3 playthroughs, and has so many freakin mods it's a different game.

The very first two, like from 1997?[1] or the first two mainstream ones (fallout 3 and NV)?

Yes, the actual first two.
