Oh really? They actually assigned professions to gender?

They're really pulling out all the stops now in terms of pigeonholing the PC.

What if I want to roleplay a female protagonist who is short-tempered, anti-social and thus more prone to settle matters violently?

Our crack lawyer, ladies and gentlemen.

What a crock.

But remember. This is our game and our "story" at lest according to Pete Hines. We can play as whoever we want and not a pre-designed character from Emil and Todds Fallout fan fiction. Oh wait... :whatever:
 
Even the many, many minor bugs – not starting when you turn the key, oil puddles mysteriously appearing on your driveway, doors that do not shut properly, interior trim pieces falling off, the brake pedal going to the floor without you slowing down, the sloppy, unresponsive handling in turns, and so many electrical components blowing up so frequently that you’d swear that if you looked in the passenger seat you'd see the ghost of Joseph Lucas himself – didn’t bother me. I guess partially I’m now so familiar with those sorts of glitches in Chevrolet vehicles that I’m almost fond of them...

Shit you'll never see written in Car and Driver.

From RPS:

Even the many, many minor bugs – people raining from the sky, farm animals mysteriously stranded on rooftops, NPCs with chairs sticking through their midriffs, enemies I could pickpocket a supposedly rare and precious resource from infinitely, disappearing companions, allies who’d futilely attempt to sprint through solid surfaces, and so many entities getting caught on scenery so frequently that you’d swear the nuclear bombs had mutated the entire world into Velcro – didn’t bother me. I guess partially I’m now so familiar with those sorts of glitches in Bethesda games that I’m almost fond of them...

This is why they keep getting away with it. This tired shit is still being repeated. If Witcher 3 had bugs like this they would have been flamed to hell but Bethesda does it so it's okay.

Hell, remember New Vegas and how every critic suddenly cared about a game having bugs and glitches? If only Obsidian had the money to throw into these critics faces like Beth does then New Vegas would have probably gotten 9's and 10's across the boards. Gotta love the double standards and corporate whoring of these mainstream "critics".
 
All of the reviews basically boil down to it's buggy, janky, rather ugly at times, stutters, too heavily focused on combat, isn't very compelling, the ai sucks, and the story sucks - but it's fun because there is lots of stuff to do. Most mainstream reviewers have praised Bethesda for the direction the series has gone, even going as far to compare it to Borderlands - one reviewer noting that more features from that series might show up in the future. No mention hardly of consequences in most of the reviews. Some reviews praised the lack of reading. Other are full blown in love with the fact that the game doesn't end after the letdown of an ending(s). Most are content with the main story being trash.

Almost every single new feature in the game has been criticized for various reasons. Still it gets positive reviews aside from those who see through the bullshit. Nearly all complaints have been excused as typical Bethesda issues and mods will save the game. No criticism can be brought upon this game. It gets dismissed before a logical discussion can be had. The streamlining has gained them one of the most loyal fanbases imaginable and they know it. The comments section on most gaming sites right now might be one of the most infuriating things about the whole mess. It's the same fucking thing that happens every single time one of their games comes out. What a joke.
 
Just to add to the fun, here it is, the year 2015, and apparently you cannot assign key bindings to the numeric keypad - they're all reserved. If you're a southpaw, I guess you're just shit outta luck.

Bravo, Bethesda.

Christ alive! If you don't want to lose what little hope you have in humanity do NOT read the comment sections of Fallout 4 reviews! The level of fanaticism is cult like. If a reviewer even says one, mundane criticism of the game the fanboys start foaming at the mouth and go full rage mode. Shit, just read the comment sections of the Huffingtons Post review. Comment after comment of people making excuses or calling the reviewer a "hipster gaming douche" because he had the audacity to not give the game a perfect score as well as point out its flaws. Its... fascinating as well as infuriating.
 
Wow, Right off the bat the Game wasn't able to detect my hardware despite me being able to run Witcher3 on high....
 
One tip if it fails to launch - try running it in borderless windowed mode. A lot of people seem to be having problems running it in fullscreen.

So you are telling me one of the most common bugs (fixes) for their games is still around? Sounds legit.

Do their games have some subliminal message or some weird hyponict suggestion? the level of fanatism towards them is just baffling. I have seen JRPGs fanbases that aren't even a fifth this fanatical....and some of those dudes marry their pillows...

Maybe the Hypnotoad help Beth in creating subliminal messages and hypnotic suggestions into making gamers and critic believe that their games are the pinnacle and most perfect RPG's of our generation. Makes sense. Glory be to the Hypnotoad!

I f you guys feel so inclined, check out the PC Issues section on the Beth forums. It's starting to get ugly there, and I don't think we've seen anything yet.
 
I'll break out the popcorn. This should be good. I'm not expecting it to be as bad or big as the Arkham Knight disaster but maybe something that is close. 2015 the year of broken as hell but "critically acclaimed" games.
 
Welp, clicked New Game, gets stuck on loading forever. Going to try verifying the local files integrity, just in case that ridiculously long Key unpacking fucked something up.
 
I have to wonder why Bethesda decided to release this game now instead of early next year. The game really needed a few extra months to polish up many of the bugs, glitches and stability issues its suffers. If I could guess I'll wager that they were jealous of CD Projekt RED stealing their thunder with The Witcher 3(people stating that its the best open world game ever made and that it blows Skyrim out of the water, ect.) and wanting to prove that their game is the game that is more worthy of GOTY. "My open world RPG is better then yours." Talk about penis envy.

That too but I also can't help but have this feeling that something else more sinister and underhanded was afoot at Bethesda studios with this. Maybe its just me. :shrug:
