Bethesda's latest offering has been in development for years, but was only officially revealed a few months before its release. Fallout 4 takes place in Boston, known simply as the Commonwealth, and has players take the role of a vault dweller who was alive before the apocalypse hit. Now rising from the ashes, this survivor must come to terms with how the world has changed, as life as she once knew it has changed greatly. However, while the world has changed, war and Bethesda's Fallout does not.
A new update is now available for Fallout 4. This update adds the ability to manage your control over graphic fidelity or performance and addresses some further stability and visual issues.
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.
I had to stop. The game is not good. I'd rather play Skyrim and that game isn't that good either.
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."
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
That's exactly what happened to me too lmao
Fallout 4 is not a fallout game period it's a bethesda game
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.
They both feel the same because they are, it's just that one has swords and magic and the other has swords and guns.
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.
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.
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.
Interview with Stephen Russell, Actor for (Nick Valentine, Codsworth, My Handy) in Fallout 4 which is a vast open world role playing game set in the apocalyptic wastes of Boston, the Commonwealth. The career goes further with other Bethesda games from Starfield to Prey to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
Fanboys will be mad.
They will call you a hater or "cynical" for not thinking this game is a near masterpiece or masterpiece.
They'll claim that site that game the game an average or above average score is "clickbait", sucks or looking for hits.
They'll claim that said game does not deserve a low score for reasons unknown.
They'll claim that said game deserves a high score because they liked previous entires in the series even if those entries weren't good.
They'll pick out only one part of your review that might have been wrong or they didn't like and only focus on that one part to try to discredit your review.
Seems I have a legion of people that follow me and disagree with all my posts. 3 disagrees within 2 minutes. Not sure if they're Bethesda drones or people who have something against me.
@Ezz2013 I don't go around claiming that any review is right or wrong.
You can disagree all you want but you will have to actually provide reasons against what the reviewer wrote.
@silkrevolver I highly doubt that. I have noticed that almost all my comments get disagrees less than a minute after I comment. There are a couple users on this site that are following my profile.
Story quality? WTF
Like this website? No
Move on folks, nothing to see here.
I didn't like fallout 3. Didn't enjoy it one bit. I gave last vages a chance and i had a blast but it still wasn't as big as the hype for me. I will do the same for this one hoping that i will enjoy it like you people but if not it is my lost. I don
t see why would someone like me hate fallout since it's multiplatform. Everyone have their own taste and opinion.
As for reviews, again why do you people care ???!!!. It is proven that reviews cannot be trusted. They seek for hits. Why do you fight over them ?!
Holy crap, RPGamer... I forgot this site existed, but I used to frequent it while I was in high school in the late 90s. I remember a fellow named Thor wrote a pretty funny Q&A column... at least I think it was Thor... *skulks off*
