the writer is a massive brainlet and when asked to describe fallout 4's story he described it as androids and looking for your son, he should be fired or at least just go back to writing optional quests instead of the main story
The best thing about this game is the concept art.
It is also the worst thing, because nothing in game looks close to it.
you have the image of mama murphy using a disfigured mr.handy as a "hover" chair such wasted potential
I have the whole artbook on pdf. I got it for free - I'd send you a link but I forgot where I got it from.
all the concept art makes it seem like a really interesting game, but then in game it looks like dogshit and and has none of the personality that the art did
>How do you even fuck up such a nice premise so hard
Like this.
I played for like 3 hours and it was just terrible. There wasn't anything appealing about the game.
The game focuses on post apocalypse rather than post-post apocalypse. You would think that after 210 years, there would be some form of government and proper factions with territory.
They could've set it around 50 years after the bombs and it would've made more sense.
Also every aspect of the game was garbage.
>Ok, first of all, let's dumb down the gameplay. We don't want those rpg nerds, let's go for more action.
>Let's give the player a power armor within 60 minutes from the beginning, this will make the players stick
>Now slap in crafting. Everybody has crafting now. That's the only reason.
>Nonono, who gives a shit about player choices and worldbuiling, let's invest a shitload of money and resources into voice acting. This will reduce both quality and quantity of dialogue but hey, this is what the kids want amirite?
>Lore? nah m8, let's slap even more BoS, true american patriots, fighters of justice.
>Oh yeah, now AAA publishers are politically engaged, let's slap a cheap methaphore as social commentary into the game
>Let's ship the game, don't need to bugfix, they'll buy it anyway, they're used to Bethesda quality lmao
What baffles is is that they doubled down on everything in 76
Pretty much.
>You would think that after 210 years, there would be some form of government and proper factions with territory.
It always makes me laugh that The Elder Scrolls is the series with crimes, fines, and jails, but Fallout has absolutely none of that to the point where if you accidentally “steal” someone’s empty soda bottle then every NPC in a 10-mile radius turns hostile toward you.
Makes sense, since Blade Runner is also garbage
For me, it's Big Dick Nick
F4>F3
>I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Megaton on fire under the great mushroom cloud. I watched rising dust glitter over the canyon of the Divide. All those moments will be lost in time, like rads in the rain

I tried New Vegas and it grabbed me for a few hours but i didn't think it was anything spectacular. Should i try 1 and 2?
no, you sound like you have shit taste
Literally the only good character in the whole game
You should try 4, it's the only one that doesn't have outdated graphics and gunplay at this point
NV's first hours are its weakest desu, if you don't enjoy it after confronting Benny on the strip then it's just not for you
4 is by far the worst
3 is way fucking worse, 4 had some shit writing but had some good moments
3 was pants on head retarded throughout
Im playing Fallout 3 these days and its so much better. Really underrated game. I like the survivalist aspect with proper atmosphere and the map is quite believable which honestly doesn't feel like it in New Vegas. New Vegas to me feels like a huge theme park with a desert in between rides and it becomes too obvious on 2nd playthrough. Yet NV is "objectively" better because what it does good it does better (like scenario, dialogue, quests) than how F3 does with what its good at but I don't play each game for the same reason. NV doesnt scratch the itch F3 does, and I prefer F3 gameplay and "meta", more interesting perks and better balancing for instance. I like the mods Ive installed so far too.
tldr : arguably bethesda's best game (just doesnt have morrowind's ost)
I installed a mod that adds legendary enemies in F3, literally the only good thing in the anti-immersive soulless garbage that is Fallout 4 Sims Edition. I guess some people play F3 for the wrong reason though, sure the story may be cheesy sometimes (yet at times well written) but what I find fun is pretty much treating it like a roguelike by cranking up the difficulty, going up exploring and choosing different starting points to do quests so each playthrough is different.
>My not me’s arch nemesis is still alive living as a ghoul in a sewer for over 300 years for no reason because a story in this game not ending in a violent gunfight where people die is unacceptable heaven forbid I have to actually come to real terms with my legitimate identity crisis we must shoot monster men in the face
Begone underaged shiteater
How'd he even become a ghoul?
I'm almost certainly older than you, reddit
F3 is moee enjoyable because at least there's SOME semblance of role-playing. Fucking terribly written by Bethesda, but at least you can customise who you are to a minor extent beyond being an 18 year old vault dweller. In Fallout 4 you will always be an angry father or mother who loves their son and is looking for them. If I wanted generic mindless shooting I'd play Destiny or something
>They could've set it around 50 years after the bombs and it would've made sense
fallout 76 took place 20 years after the bombs, and it turned out great!
oh wait i meant the opposite of that
Fallout 76's setting is the one thing that people praise you fucking braindead passive aggressive moron
the only way to enjoy fallout 3 is to avoid the main story entirely, fallout 4 is all the main story
2 >> NV > 1 >>>> 3 > 4 > Tactics >>>>>>>>>>>> 76
Yes, but then you're still stuck roleplaying as an 18 year old kid who is loaded to the teeth with spoiled brat/edgy kid lines.
beyond based
>Blade Runner: The game
Fuck off.
There was. Funny how you people NEVER play the game that you shit.
There was a commonwealth government called the Commonwealth Provisional Government. The Institute infiltrated it and fucked it up. The Institute is the reason the commonwealth is so divided.
Also the BOS is pretty much the government of a huge amount of east coast.
>The Institute infiltrated it and fucked it up.
Why?
Fallout battle royale when
bcuz science lololol
Bravo Bethesda
>muh androids
Fuck that, literally the shittiest part of Fallout lore am they made a whole game
The shooting was improved at the expense of everything else basically.
At least they added Minecraft mode.
