* PreviousPlayerCharacterCameo: Not quite a full cameo, but it is possible to find the Highwayman car used previously by [[VideoGame/Fallout2 the Chosen One]], with some appropriate items inside a footlocker in the trunk. Given that the wreckage is not too far from the home of No-bark Noonan, as well as some of Noonan's highly implicit dialogue, it may very well be that the TalkativeLoon hermit of Novac is in fact the protagonist of ''Fallout 2'' and the man who destroyed the Enclave and ''personally killed [[SuperSoldier Frank Horrigan]]''.

* NPCAmnesia: Some dialogue trees have a "skill check" as your only dialogue choice. If that skill is too low your response isn't very good. In those cases, you can fail the check and try again after boosting that skill and the person doesn't even seem to find it odd that you were less eloquent before reading a magazine and putting on leopard-print nightwear.

Obvious Beta is YMMV. Cleanup: (re)moving wick from trope/work example lists

* ObviousBeta: As one might expect of a game developed by Obsidian and published by Bethesda, the story is unique and lovingly crafted, but the bugs and glitches are plentiful and the game is prone to crashing even after several updates.

* NecessaryWeasel: The Courier gets shot in the head and buried, the Courier gets dug up by Victor and healed back to health by Doc Mitchell. Once you assign your SPECIAL attributes, though, [[LampshadeHanging Mitchell will question how the whole thing could have happened]]. If your Endurance is too low, he questions how you survived that if, in his words, a stiff breeze would rip you in two, if your Luck is too low he notices the discrepancy to how you survived two point-blank shots to the head (which is very often noted to be a miraculous event that shouldn't possibly happen without a lot of luck behind you), but if your Luck is too high he snarks that the bullets would logically have just crawled back into the chamber. As you create your character after Benny shoots them in the first place, the chosen stats have no control over your fate, and it would be pretty cruel to bar certain builds in an RPG because of the events of the game's intro.

* RadiationInducedSuperpowers: The game has one (vanilla game) or two (with a DLC) perks that let your character revel in the blessings of Atom:
** Rad Child grants a 2 HP-per-second HealingFactor per level of radiation sickness. This is the single most powerful source of healing in the game, since it's 1) per-second, rather than once every X seconds like the Monocyte Breeder implant or Vault 21,Canteen, 2) not situational, such as with Solar Powered, and 3) gets stronger the more severe your Radiation Sickness stat becomes.
** Atomic! (from "Old World Blues") gives you a similar bonus to AP regeneration while suffering from radiation poisoning, as well as a boost to walking speed while actively being irradiated (allowing food to act as a sort of non-addictive chem, as it's now digested over a few seconds rather than one-and-done consumed).
