If Todd could find a way to monetize them he would remake them. $7 to let DogMeat live

Fortnight dances, only $7 to floss.

Game Pass exclusive mission.

Fallout 1st support for increased inventory (also, severely reduced inventory for non-Fallout 1st players).

Sure, but like…would it really be the end of the world if it got controller support? I’m far more comfortable on controller than I am on mouse and keyboard, largely because I work on mouse and keyboard all day.

It would be very difficult to control a game like Fallout 1 with a conventional controller, but if you really need it you can use DOSBox, which has controller support. The Retroarch core is probably the easiest to use and setup, I am not sure about the standalone version, but it is probably similar.

I’m playing Fallout 2 via GOG right now, and I would really appreciate controller support.

add it to steam as a non-steam game , if you use that for other games, and try to create a mapping with Steaminput. I have not done that for fallout, but that offers so many options that i am certain you’ll be able to map everything to your controller you need.

If steam is not an option xpadder or joy2key might work for you, but i have not used them for ages.

You’re best bet is doing that commentor’s suggestion. Those games do not map to a controller that well and most likely will never officially receive that.

Steam Deck is such a godsend for these exact situations. Played through Tactics on my deck earlier in the year.

Sadly FO1 plays terribly on it if you don’t have a mouse and keyboard, and the resolution/display settings get borked all the time

Steam Input lets you map the trackpads to a mouse and you can map the buttons to any keyboard button. You can even map a zoom button and force the game to a specific resolution. It’s doable if you believe in yourself haha.

What I need is a larger UI so I can fucking see what the hell I’m doing. I got like 6.25 glasses and astigmatism, and I guess I should qualify as having a visual impairment because fallout 1 is unplayable

Yeah, being able to zoom in and out and scale the UI would be huge quality of life improvements. Maybe even make the Pip Boy map slightly more usable.

Well support might not be an option but have you considered/tried something like xpadder? I had to use it to map keyboard buttons to a controller for gameboy emulators a couple years ago. Might do the trick.

Write a mod. Or pay someone to.

Also, they don’t have full ownership of those games.
