RPGs like fallout without magic?

I've managed to scratch my fallout cd until it no longer installs, and I am feeling like playing something like it again, but with a different franchise.

Are there any good Fallout-like RPGs out there? Without magic or thinly veiled versions thereof.

Try Jagged Alliance 2. Its my personal suggestion that meets the criteria you describe. Be forewarned, its more tactical then rpg, but it has enough rpg to keep me happy.

I enjoyed PlaneScape Torment but theres some magic in there. Its very RPG though.

Wasteland :-! heh

Unfortunaltey, nothing compares to Fallout, and I've been looking around a lot. I gave up though. PST didn't do it for me at all, and lionheart was a madass dissapointment. Oh well

I never got particularly far in it, althought it might be good if I spent some time?

I got part way into it one night. But yeah, you have to play it for awhile before you get into it. It doesnt seem too fun at first.

If you don't want magic - well, then I'm afraid you're outta luck. However, I might recommend Arcanum; while it does have a lotta magic, you can choose to make a technological character as well, and the contrast between magic/tech is interesting and refreshingly different.

Yeah, i forgot about Arcanum. There are cool guns and armor in that game.

Forgot about Wasteland..

I find it rather hard to get into it, with its copy protection with the paragraphs. Hard to understand when you just have a text file to look back and forth at. Plus the controls were rather disorientating.

List of nonmagic RPGs is rather low :/

Try Silent Storm.
