Yeah, I guess getting the exact same cutscene at the end no matter what faction you choose to side with is "clever"... I also must applaud Bethesda for taking the BioWare conversation wheel, and making it worse - no small feat.- The storyline is clever

As much as I love the game (and I do), this is so much an understatement. I got a used 360 last gen, fully well knowing it was modded and banned (so unable to get patches too) - I figured, if I only care about single player, what's the difference?I didn't liked the slow begining of the game, the lack of technical polish.
I agree with you, even though I didn't played a Bethesda RPG on console since Oblivion (on 360 I stopped after 10 hours and baught a PC ^^). Then I decided to play Behtesda game on PC only and to always wait at least 8 month for modding to comes to start the game properly.NV was one of the games that proved there certainly can be a difference. It wasn't until I got the GOTY edition with all the DLC and patches that I was able to complete it.
I go with NV even though it was buggy as hell and crashed constantly on the 360. I'm surprised that Bethesda never did a remaster of them. I mean they've remastered/ported the shit out of Skyrim, so it's a shame that F3, NV never got a bump.
I thought the same about New Vegas, but I have accepted that this is because the mechanics were too similar to Fallout3. Story wise, New Vegas is far superior. Today, I would tell people to just skip Fallout3.Fallout 4 is the technical best of the three. New Vegas was actually kind of boring

I liked Fallout 3 better than New Vegas, storywise
I agree on all of this except the storyline thingI like Fallout 4 the most cause I'm not a hater.
- Settlement building is fun
- The graphics are the most refined and the environments are really diverse
- The storyline is clever
- The companions are interesting and helpful
- The Power Armor feels like something special instead of just it being armor with good stats
- Weapon customization is well implemented
I actually have to disagree here. Generally I dislike weapon durability (or "weapon fragility", as a certain pundit put it) systems, especially when they're so extreme you are actively trying not to use a particular weapon (yes, looking at you BotW). But it was never so over the top in FO3/NV. As a matter of fact, I found it kind of fitting - in a nuclear wasteland, you cannot expect items to be in mint condition and remain so. Sure, being at the lowest level of a hostile vault and your favourite weapon suddenly calling it quits can be infuriating, but "realistic" (within the context of the game) too. As a matter of fact, I kind of hoped what with the next generation and all, we would have seen the weapons deteriorate visually in FO4. First a few blemishes here and there, then more dirt, then some duct tape applied and by the time the weapon is unusable, the barrel is so bent firing it would be suicide at any rate.that stupid weapon deterioration mechanic has been scrapped
My opinion? Fallout 4 is a great game. I don't get why it has so many haters.

yeah I was glad that was removed too. To bad its back for F76edit: also, that stupid weapon deterioration mechanic has been scrapped.
I see where you’re coming from. In the weapons breaking gave me the “I’m in a wasteland, I need to scrounge for resources for survival” feeling, but quickly after it just became tedious. I like realism, but not at the expense of fun.I actually have to disagree here.

Don't get me wrong, one of the additions to FO4 I really liked was the weapon/armour modding. But it kind of leads one to pick one or few weapons and make them OP as fuck. It makes the game more of a loot-shooter instead of a post-apocalyptic survival experience. Which isn't a bad thing in itself, I just don't find it very "fallout-y".
Because it has the name Fallout in it and it's kind of fucked up to hijack a beloved RPG series (F2 is oftenly refered to as the #1 role playing game among hardcore RPG communities) and turn it into a Borderlands-tier loot shooter with a dialog wheel justifying the RPG genre descriptor.My opinion? Fallout 4 is a great game. I don't get why it has so many haters.
part of it (dlc)Where is Fallout 3 set? Wasn't one of the games set in Pittsburgh?
