    Maybe the reason is I played them as a teenager when they first came out. The immersion blew my mind at the time.

      This is definitely a big factor. They where my first real big rpg with a good story. I was blown away by the time.

      Then Fallout 3 almost wasn’t a rpg at all. Big letdown for me. F:NV was much better. But it took some time to get over the similar feeling to F3.

      The nostalgia factor surely doesn’t hurt. Fallout 3 was my first, which also colors my opinion of these games. Didn’t try 1&2 until the 2010s.
