If you had to choose TWO things Fallout 4 did RIGHT, what would they be?

I just enjoy Plinkett's tearing them apart.

True, he does it really well.

Alright, I can't think of two things, so I'll go with one. The character creation. Using the same facegen system for all NPCs, and the shapes you can get it with it, gives characters (both yours and all NPCs) a bunch of unique looks. Probably the part I had the most fun with. That part is definitely, definitely done right.

I think they forgot to give us characterisation to go with that character, though.

You have to LARP to get that though.

Isn't LARPing somewhat like role playing? Because I don't get that at all from Fallout 4, unless LARPing means going around killing people, without any logical reason.

LARPing is full on role-playing (well, if it's done right). Basically table-top, but with foam swords instead of dice.

1) Marketing
2) Sales

 

[Sergeant Politeness]

1) Writing
2) C&C

When it comes to video games, it's like if you pretended you were mayor of Diamond City. Since you can never be mayor since the game doesn't support that idea it's "pretending to do something that isn't supported by the base game". Essentially LARPING.

1) Writing
2) C&C

Oh you.

Exactly!

Well, it does have a short load time. That's something good about it. The piano Fallout theme intro is also really nice. That's two.

1. Art Direction
2. Gun gameplay felt much improved over the previous ones
