Things you would have liked to have seen in Fallout 4

[CT Phipps]

Random Aside: My biggest disappointment with the Brotherhood quest chain is you rebuild Liberty Prime and the Institute DOESN'T reprogram him so he's the Final Boss.

It would have been perfect!

RPG Mechanics

 

[Hassknecht]

Someone but Emil writing it.

 

[Risewild]

I was coming here to post but then @JO'Geran and @Hassknecht already wrote the two things I was going to write .
I guess I can add: No junk DLCs.

 

[Atomkilla]

News of cancellation.

 

[TorontoReign]

Obsidian.

 

[naossano]

Obsidian.

Black isles, interplay, mca, Tim Cain, Brian fargo, Jason anderson, Chris Taylor, mark Morgan, Leonard boyarsky etc...

 

[whirlingdervish]

Damage Threshold. The single factor that could have saved their shitty bullet sponge combat.

 

[Millim]

Anything good.

 

[Prone Squanderer]

Respect for the franchise and not made by Bethesda would have been nice.

 

[Walpknut]

Talent.

 

[naossano]

Commitment to make a game and then sell it, not commitment to sell a game with making it as an afterthought.

 

[0wing]

Freedom.

 

[MojaveMoproblems]

a good Fallout game

 

[ThatZenoGuy]

Competent game programmers/designers.

 

[R.Graves]

1. good writing
2. good characters
3. good worldbuilding
4. SPECIAL
5. classic style dialogue box
6. more new creatures with new names (there's like 10 different "mirelurks")
7. better voice actors
8. better combat (under the surface fo4's combat is a downgrade)
9. follows the lore reasonably well (external consistency)
10. internal consistency
11. interesting conflict
that's about it really. all the stuff that should be in a fallout game and was in NV really. I'm not a asking much. I think fallout 4 really only had no. 11 but that's negligable, at least for me, because of a lack of numbers 1, 2, &, 3 which all go hand-in-hand with no.11. no. 11 is nothing without 1, 2, &, 3.

fallout 4 is especially disgraceful when it comes to numbers 9 & 10.

So anything that isn't a put down of the game?

... those weren't put downs. those were things that weren't in the game that I would have preferred had been.

Yeah, I mean, what do you want to hear? Writing "non-lazy writers and programmers" is just quicker than writing out for the thousandth time all the things that should have been in the game if the responsible person would have spent more than five seconds coming up with it.
Every single aspect of the game contains things I would have liked to see in Fallout 4 but that aren't there. Absolutely every single one. There is nothing in Fallout 4 that is not flawed by the fact that it could have been much better with just a little bit more thought.
That level of half-arsery is an achievement in and of itself, really.

 

[ThatZenoGuy]

I would have liked to see a single canon/classic weapon in the game.

I honestly cannot think of a single one, even the 10mm pistol is different than the 3/NV one, as if to go 'fuck you new vegas, we ain't using the weapons you used!'...
