Digital Foundry just did their analysis. PC then PS4 and X1 is last but all really buggy (was expected but still not ok). Wondering if I should wait to start this.

joab7773111d ago

No. The bugs are always part of the experience. I don't think I've ever had a game breaking bug, just some crazy clipping etc.

Yeah, as expected...

I can't wait for it to drop!

LamerTamer3110d ago

If it ain't buggy, it ain't Bugthesda. Their new slogan.

The only difference is the FPS, this is parity at the worst for PC gamers.

I'm still buying for my PC -=o)

Elit3Nick3110d ago

You forget the motto of PC gamers, mod it till it breaks. There are already ENB mods that will greatly enhance the look of the game.

NicSage3110d ago

True, I was very surprised by the textures in Digital Foundry comparison video. I saw little to no difference between PC and consoles.

LamerTamer3110d ago

It was said that the xbone was the lead platform and then ported to everything else. Since they got it running at 1080p on the xbone they had to gimp the graphics for the weak GPU they have in there. So the PS4 suffers a little from the parity as they aren't using any of the better GPU features, and the PC really gets the shaft as you get xbone graphics in higher res.

Parity sucks.

starchild3110d ago

Even in this Internet video I can see the PC version has more shadows with a further draw distance. I haven't read the Digital Foundry comparison, but I'm sure there are more differences as well.

NicSage3110d ago

Thing I noticed was the texture quality did not differ from the consoles to the PC all that much.

How nice of them to give us more control over graphical settings as a way to *completely* avoid taking accountability for the broken Xbox settings.

bondsmx2d ago

Well, I still crashed like 5 times last night within two hours. So there’s that.

I had to stop. The game is not good. I'd rather play Skyrim and that game isn't that good either.

I Think It's About Time We Realize Fallout 4 Wasn't That Bad

Ahmed from eXputer: "2015's Fallout 4 received harsh criticism upon launching, but I think it was unwarranted and the game deserves more praise than it got."

helicoptergirl7d ago

It was totally that bad. I couldn't finish the campaign it was so bland and boring as I recall. Got so sick of it. 1000 stimpaks on hard. It is very rare that I play half a game and then just quit. I usually always finish it. But i was so bored with this game I just stopped and never went back and never regretted it. Just thinking about that game makes me shudder

Furesis7d ago

That's exactly what happened to me too lmao
Fallout 4 is not a fallout game period it's a bethesda game

Vits7d ago

The comparison with Skyrim is mind-boggling. Yes, Skyrim has streamlined many of the systems that Morrowind introduced. However, it did not tamper with the core of the Elder Scrolls franchise; it did not diminish the freedom and sense of exploration that made Bethesda RPGs famous. Fallout 4, on the other hand, did exactly that to the Fallout series. It eliminated what made Fallout such a beloved series to play. There are no consequences for your choices, no reason to explore, and barely any interesting set pieces in the game.

It's not terrible, but it's a painfully mediocre game in a franchise that typically doesn't produce such mediocrity. So that is why people see it as bad, the bar is just much higher.

anast7d ago

They both feel the same because they are, it's just that one has swords and magic and the other has swords and guns.

anast7d ago

I'm replaying it now. It sucks. I'm about 30 hours in and thinking about quitting again. I am so tired of the dialogue I just spam a random button because it doesn't matter. The upgrade just feels like a graphical mod, everything else is not good.

Good-Smurf7d ago (Edited 7d ago )

I couldn't play the game as-is it was insanely boring and grindy and the grind itself are not fun at all.
Mods helped me stomach the game a bit better but after a while I just stopped playing and uninstalled it because the game did nothing after the first few hours to give me any motivation to keep playing it, it just became a mindless looter shooter with obsession in settlement building and defending.
Compared to F3 and FNV, F4 was barely a mediocre game it wasn't bad but it's also very forgettable entry.

MrDead7d ago

It's not that bad after 300+ mods that fix it's issues and make the game fun... but lets not talk about mods right now as they are f****d.
