"The problem comes from the fact that this feels like more of the same, not a step forward. Fallout 4 doesn't break the same new ground Fallout 3 did with its jump to 3D, and its storytelling and intricacy of choice falls short of what New Vegas offered...Fallout 4 just feels safe, even when trying new things." ...

Nota 10 (alem de fazer eu quero jogar os anteriores do Fallout, tambem me fez ter vontade de jogar o Skyrim que eu joguei muito pouco quando eu ainda tinha um Xbox 360 a uns anos atras) Expand

I have not been this engaged since Bloodbourne. Fallout is addictive, so addictive it leads to 'I'll just look over here' moments, encouraging to 2 more hours of gameplay when you know you should be going to bed and getting up for work at 7am.

The wasteland is rich and detailed with many interesting locations to discover as well as many disturbing monsters, raiders and robots to fight. Gunplay has been improved and vats is no longer the primary way to dispatch of feral ghouls and Death Claws! Combat feels more comfortable and it is a lot easier to use weapons without the vats system. Thats not to say vats isn't necessary, because it is espesially if you want to play tactically and it really helps when facing hordes of beasts or much larger enemies.

Story is interesting and the many side quests appeal. Fallout is a dark world and many quests give you a sense of wonder as you explore the wasteland further. I enjoyed the many interactions with the rich characters you meet.

Graphically there have been improvements. Personally I love the graphics style and I'm happy that it feels familiar to Fallout 3. There have been some complaints about character models and texture pop in etc but it really didn't bother me because I was so invested in the world that I found the graphics to be fine.

The soundtrack is again awesome carrying over many of the well known Fallout 3 songs and adding a few new ones, although I would have like to have seen another hour or two of new music added since you are going to put in 100's of hours.

Another neat new addition is the build mode, you are tasked with building a town, giving it power, lights, beds, furnishings etc. It's a nice little add on that you can lose hours in.

Overall I love Fallout 4. Because I am having so much fun with the game I'm barely noticing any issues with it, yes there's the odd glitch but nothing that has ruined gameplay or caused me to reload. I'm thoroughly enjoying it and highly recommend it to any fans of the previous games and new players too.

Bought the game a five hours ago and I'm going to give a 100% honest review about it.

Fallout 4 is a massive game. In the strategy guide there's roughly 150 quests and I estimate the map is about as big as skyrim's, but there seems to be a higher density of areas to explore with fewer mountains and whatnot in the way to make the map feel bigger than it actually is.

In comparison to previous Fallouts people keep saying it isn't a big step up. I disagree with them, but I will admit the facial expression are a bit stiff and lip syncing is a tiny bit off. Some people dislike the aesthetics of the game because they went with a much more punchy and bright color pallet rather than just make everything poop brown and puke green like Fallout 3. I actually enjoyed the more colorful environments.

Looking at the pc specs this game is technically graphically superior to any other game out right now even if some people are saying the graphics are not very good. I honestly thought the graphics looked amazing, but I'm just putting it out there that not everybody shares my opinion and some people think games like Witcher 3 actually have better graphics. Personally, I don't think it should matter all that much because it's really about gameplay, not graphics.

Gameplay wise what Fallout 4 brings to the table over previous games is a vastly improved combat system, much better balance regarding things like stimpacks and perks, and overall more challenge on higher difficulties. Gun play feels almost exactly like Call of Duty instead of very stiff and clunky like New Vegas. You definitely will feel noticeable improvements on how guns and things handle regarding sight clarity, draw animations, sway, recoil, and smoothness adjusting aim. Movement also feels more in line with Call of Duty. Sprint is in the game and is balanced by taking away action points to use in vats, a great mechanic imo that adds more fluidity and better pacing to everything. In other words you no longer have to worry about slowly plodding from one area to the next making for less overall downtime to deal with.

What this game offers over Destiny, which probably it's main competition atm is a much more engaging story and much much more content than Destiny could ever hope to deliver. I mean in comparison I finished Destiny including all story missions, all strikes, and the two raids in about 20 hours. The story missions in the vanilla game itself you could easily get through in about 5 hours. Even if all 150 quests take a half hour each you are still talking about 75 hours of content to go through so even the most viscous haters on here would have to admit at minimum this game at least offers a lot in quantity of content even if one could make an argument about the quality of it.

Sound wise Fallout 4 offers MUCH more voice actors than previous games leading to much more variations in how npcs interact. Games like Elder Scrolls online will recycle the same voice actors. It's not like that in this game. I also enjoyed how gun sounds have much more "oomph" than Fallout 3 and New Vegas. Everything sounded like it really had impact and the blood splatter in response seemed really satisfying. Unfortunately, didn't like the music track in the game so far, but oh well.

People on here are complaining about very specific nitpicky issues with the game like for instance the facial expression/lip syncing issue, a few specific non game breaking bugs, color aestetics, and blah, blah, blah.

All I got to say is please examine the facts for yourself. I encourage anybody reading this to just look at the amount of content and all the customization and what you are getting here and then decide based on that rather than some extremely specific little thing somebody is complaining about.

I assure you this game has a lot of bang to offer for your 60 bucks and well deserves 10/10 in my very honest opinion.

The bugs from launch have been mostly fixed, the graphics are a major upgrade from Fallout 3 and are good enough to get the job done. The biggest issue with this game is the new dialogue system which isn't great and can hurt the story for some players, especially those invested in the lore. This Fallout emphasises gameplay over story in its innovations. The gunplay has been significantly improved and the enemies are competent when their A.I isn't completely broken. (Please remember this is still a Bethesda game, so please expect some B.S to happen while playing.) Despite this new shift, the main story is still fascinating and the Commonwealth is a huge map filled with mysteries and interesting side stories to discover. Definately worth buying, especially since the upcoming DLC looks cool as hell.
P.S DON'T FORGET TO GET THE SILVER SHROUD COSTUME

Maybe it's because i didn't expect much, but I had really good fun playing. It's definitely not perfect and sometimes glitched. I didn't feel that joining different fractions or choosing dialogue options change much in the experience, but I really enjoyed exploring the world between quests. Definitely not bad, but also not the best. Expand

I somehow managed to break my gameplay experience so I never actually finished the main quest-line. In saying this i did spend about 57 hoursI somehow managed to break my gameplay experience so I never actually finished the main quest-line. In saying this i did spend about 57 hours within the game kinda just **** around and leveling up my character.

I really love the Fallout franchise. It's a lot of fun, a really interesting open-world to explore, and also has some interesting lore and locations. Um, so Fallout 4? It's incredibly okay. I went through 3 stages of grief playing the game.
1. I love it! The gameplay is smooth, solid, feels satisfying shooting guns and collecting loot. The actual core-mechanics and leveling up system is pretty good this time. Not as deep, or dense, as the OG, but definitely good. Building bases is kinda fun. I love the environment and setting. I mean, it's basically fallout 3...but better looking? Also has nice gameplay elements.
2. Wait! Is this basically a grind-fest-looter-shooter...why are the main quests and side-quests all feel repetitive and annoying. Um, it's got some alright moments. But like, hmmm, I'm getting BORED FAST.
3. **** this! **** What are these repetitive randomly generated **** quests? Why is the narrative so weak? **** the Companions, they are annoying (and also pointless) What does this game even want to be??? WHY IS IT A **** LOOTER SHOOTER!!!!!!! WTF !!!! I just...I guess I'm done with the game. Thank God. Moving on.

These are my opinions on Fallout 4. It's a fallout looter shooter w light RPG elements and annoying repetitive generated quests. Gets really Dull after about 20 hours of gameplay. None of the factions are that interesting either! I also Really REALLY missed (and hate) what they do with the Insitute.It's all boring...I really missed the Enclave. Also having a voiced character is **** DUMB and takes away from the immersive elements of these games. **** dumb.

Super Mixed bag aye. I would recommend this game for 10 dollars (I paid this much for it) You do get a lot of content. The game is flawed.

I'm going to be honest and say that I way so hyped when this game came out at first because I was a starved Fallout fan, but honestly, if youI'm going to be honest and say that I way so hyped when this game came out at first because I was a starved Fallout fan, but honestly, if you enjoy this game or even outright call it a fallout game, then the underlying concept of the fallout series obviously has gone over your head.

The only reason this game isn't considered **** is due to alot of ignorant gamers only having played Fallout 4 and not any other games.

It's a mediocre AAA game at best, probably why so many ignorant gamers enjoy it, because they've never explored anything else.

As a fallout game this just totally fails, don't buy it, and if you like the Fallout Franchise you shouldn't support this game at all
