I would still prefer a remake like this in a modern infinity engine style engine (like Pillars of Eternity or Divinity Original Sin).

But hot damn 100 devs working on this makes me think I might at least give it a shot for old times' sake, when it's ready.

Fallout is tops between the two, but Fallout 2 always held a special place in my heart (and had a slightly better interface).

They are working with a team that is also working to recreate fallout 1. They are sharing resources. Vault 13 it's called

I would buy this type of remake immediately
