Fallout 4 review roundup #2

They were way too nice if you ask me. Hell it even sounded like they were praising the game. Honest Trailers sucks now. It was funny when they first started but now its just lame.

If you're smart you quickly figure out which pieces work best with what with settlement, but it really does require some additional polishing from Beth's part.

As for the exploration part, what exactly do you want? This is how Beth games are. A lot of people find exactly what you describe fun, salvaging anything you can from the ruins of the Commonwealth and shooting raiders/gunners/mutants in the face. Also yes most quests just give you straight up money at the end.

For the immersion part that's really up to personal taste. I've had like, only once found a quest-breaking bug (Virgil's Serum quest) and I found the fix real quick without needing console. For me what annoyed a lot was the AI pathfinding that's really stupid. But is that a deal breaker? No

Have you ever played Morrowind? As far as the exploration and items goes, I think it is better than any of the last Elder Scroll games at least. New Vegas had a similar approach as well, with hand placed items. It simply gives you a reason, to be out there, exploring. While it could be tedious in Morrowind, I would say that it gave the player a lot more purpose and excitement, as I remember that I really WANTED to explore in the hope of finding another small piece of deadric armor, obviously, most of the time you wouldn't, but if you did, it felt awesome. This feeling, was kinda almost completely gone with Oblivion and even more so Skyrim, where the best part comes from crafting, not exploring. And it seems to be similar with Fallout 4, if you chose the correct perks.

It was better then those clowns from Rooster teeth wearing their pip boys talking about how people who don't give F4 high reviews are just trying to be cool and you know... not like you know actually have valid criticisms of the game or anything.
 
Circle jerking it up in here. Hope you guys brought a mop or two. :3

You guys wouldn't be able to come up with original thought if it smacked you up the broadside of your head with a 2x4.

"Hey brah, I hate this game even though I haven't played it brah."

"Yeah, only past games were good brah, let me put on my special tinted-rose glasses while I play the originals."

"Everything new sucks definitely brah"

Could you link me to that?
 
The main problem, not enough Doritos and Mountain Dew on display. And I counted only 2 Pip boys. 2? Only 2! Really? Should have been at least 6, for each arm.
 
A girl with pink hair and wideframed glasses, wearing a tank top with a slogan accusing others of doing things just to "seem edgy and special". The irony is just too high.

Honest trailers...that are nowhere near honest enough!

Ha they mentioned "where's Caesar's Legion when you need them".

*shrug* I mean, I have more than 200 new games in my Steam iibrary, and most of them don't suck. But this site is about Fallout...

I managed 30 seconds.
Jesus...
I wanna hit somebody.


Is it really that bad? What were they talking about in the 30 seconds you watched before you stopped?

Here is my hap hazard attempt at a more honest Honest Trailer:

"From the developers who have not made a good RPG game since Morrowind, comes the continue adaptation of a franchise that has steered far from its deep RPG roots and was more overhyped then the new Star Wars film. Fallout 4!



Witness a series that was once full of complex characters, factions and motivations that made you stop and question your own morality and beliefs get gutted, retconed and dumb down for a new, younger and attention challenged audience.


See postwar Boston in all its glory in a outdated 15-year-old engine with bugs galore. Such as blue screens of death, crashing when hacking a terminal and quest breaking bugs that Bethesda fans and professional critics will immediately tell you are features that are to be expected in a Bethesda game and you should just appreciate everything Bethesda has given you.


Play as the Sole Survivor, a character so bland that they give Cmdr. Shepard a run for their money in the wet brick department. You're given a choice of playing as war veteran daddy or lawyer mommy.(Really? I mean seriously, who do you think has a greater chance of surviving in a post apocalyptic world? Jesus, Bethesda wasn't even subtle with who the canon character you're supposed to be playing is. I mean Christ the male player character even narrates the beginning.)



See a glimpse of the prewar world which is shown to be a golden age of cheery 50's perfection even though the original Fallouts and New Vegas painted it to be the exact opposite and anything but.


Witness a story so rehashed and unoriginal that the plot and story is literally Fallout 3 in reverse. (No I'm not joking instead of a son looking for his dad it's a dad now looking for his son and the son is also middle-aged too just like your dad in Fallout 3.)


Join one of the four factions whose logic and reasoning are just what you expect from a post-Morrowind Bethesda game.
The Brotherhood of Steel led by Elder Macklemore who want to destroy the most technologically advanced place in the wasteland which kinda goes against their doctrine that was established in Fallout 1.
The Railroad led by Aela The Huntress who want to start a race war between the Syths and scientists in The Institute because that will work out well for humanity in the long run.
The Minutemen led by Preston Gravy Boat whose only purpose is just to make you the new leader after you meet him. No quest or anything you're just made the new leader right on the spot because you're the chosen one or something.
And finally The Institute who are led by your middle-aged son Shaun whose logic and reasoning constantly contradict each other. (I mean seriously they claim they want to help humanity but at the same time they created the super mutants that you see in the Commonwealth, kidnap innocent people to experiment on and replace them with android replicas, invest in useless experiments like synthetic gorillas and at the end of the game want to bomb a large area with innocent people. Man and I thought the Think Tank were insane.)



Experience voice acting so bland that you swear the voice actors were voice acting while they were sleeping.


Play the game your way with limitless freedom except if you want to play an evil or neutral character and experience implementations that no fan of the original Fallouts and New Vegas asked for such as:
Shooting
Looting
Shooting
Badly implemented romances
Shooting
No Ron Perlman intro and ending narration(Seriously like what the fuck Bethesda?)
Shooting
Dressing up your dog
Shooting
A forced backstory for your character
Shooting
Legendary enchanted weapons
Shooting
Minecraft style settlement building
Shooting
Dialogue Wheel
Shooting
A voiced protagonist
Shooting
Crafting
Shooting
Radiant Quest
and finally even more shooting!!! Cause fuck yeah MAN!!


Staring:
Generic Wet Brick War Hero Protagonist No.45782
Discount Data (Nick)
Paladin Buzz Lightyear (Danse)
EDE (Currie)
Female Niner (Cait)
Willows Boston Counterpart (Piper)
AnnoyingsWorth (Codsworth)
Discount Fawkes (Strong)
Cosplaying Ghoul (Hancock)
That foul mouthed cuck from Little Lamplight (MacCready)
and Bullet Sponge (Dogmeat)


Destiny! Err...I mean, Borderlands 3! Err... Wait, I mean Call of Duty Black Ops 4! Damn it! I mean Fallout 4!


(Don't worry everyone mods will fix everything. If not then the spin off made by Obsidian will.)"
