First round of Fallout 4 Reviews

Fuckin evergreen mills all over again, Why can raiders not talk!?
Holy shit, I approach the "combat zone" or whatever, and I think - hey - people, they even got electricity, they got a sign, a welcoming fucking comitee, and a SPORT where one is expected to SIGN UP and COMPETE

BUT NO

they shoot you on sight
cuz
deyr raiderz

An entire settlement + concept + potential backstory = reduced to a wipe-em-out encounter, not even a quest.

Isn't that thing supposed to have a potential companion in it?

Yes, but it's kindov dumb.
you go inside, kill everything that moves, and get a lil speech from the owner of the place, and a companion as a reward for shutting him down, and ruining his business. Idunno... but yes, you do get a companion there, so... I guess like the bobblehead hidden in Evergreen Mills there is SOME reward-factor :V

Aww damn, really? I didn't visit the place yet, but I hoped it would be something like The Thorn... But hey, Bethesda gonna bethesd. 10/10 GOTY.
 
Yes, I was expecting a functional fighting arena, but had my sneaking doubts...

They really love pulling that shit, like, went to diamond city, entered a bar, walked right into a contrived-as-hell quest, and now I'm actually afraid of walking into bars. Sometimes we just wanna sit down and chill out a bit >:I
I'd actually do that, in Goodsprings.
Go into the bar, buy a beer, sit in a booth, and consume the beer from my pipboy. Is that weird? :0

Ugh, just went there. At first I was like, "Ok, that looks nice, big location and ring, dunno what he's on about."
Aaaaand then someone yells "HOLY SHIT SHE'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HERE" and I have to slaughter a room full of muppets and get a junkie Glasgowian (wait, ain't that a pleonasm?) as a companion. Did they really make this huge venue just to give you a companion? Nothing more? 10/10 GOTY...
 
Maybe Gorillas are unused models. Left in game files to use in future expansion, DLC. Or, some inside joke like Gojira in NV.
 
They talk about synth gorillas in the Institute, but I haven't explored that one too much, so I don't know if there actually are any gorillas visible.
 
On Metacritic the user score for all three has gone up by at least 0.1.
So PC is now at 5.1, PS4 is at 6.1 and Xbox is at 5.6

Come on true Fallout fans, get that score lower and lower.

There is more mix reviews starting to pop up and Metacritic has been deleting a lot of negative reviews, even the helpful negative ones, but they're still keeping the ones that give the game a 9/10 or 10/10 ones even if those reviews admit outright that their troll reviews. But for every negative review they take down 3 more take its place. I have also noticed that the Steam score is back at 79% and there are rumors that Steam is either taking down negative reviews of the game or the most likely scenario is that Beth employees and their apologist are going onto Steam and giving the game a high user score. This is getting really pathetic.
 
TotalBiscuit had a pretty good rant on twitter

I am really look forward to TB video on Fallout 4. He was one of the few critics who didn't give Skyrim heaps of praises like the other critics and boy I can't wait to hear what he thinks of the UI. He really hated the UI in SKyrim. :newevil:

That UI. No one liked that.
 
TB is making a video denouncing the game, this is gonna be delicious.

The butthurt from Beth fanboys is going to delicious. I can already see the down votes now. Also that Evan Dawnson guy is the dumbest fucking idiot I have ever come across on Twitter.

"he thinks he is entitled to share his opinion all the time".

That's called freedom of speech dickwads, very few countries lack that human right in their constitutions. And the ones that do aren't on the west.
 
"Some people only want my opinion if it reinforces their own. Those can sod off elsewhere."
- TB

That must be my personal favourite, really. It tells a lot about fan-boys in general. Not just Bethesdian ones. Some say, this is NMA, full of people that are opiniated and not open to Bethesdas Fallout. But I think NMA would be the absolute last place to complain about a really good Fallout game. Even if it was in First Person and Real Time, if it had AT LEAST a good story, interesting quests, quality writing and NPCs with depth, and no game breaking bugs of course. May I say, an quality RPG? Can't say if TB is the best critic out there, but at least this time, he is definetly spot on - and I have to say that I agree with him most of the time.

Someone should maybe tell him that he has at least NMA's support :D!
