What genre is Fallout 4?

I wouldn't classify it as an FPS simply because you can play the entire game without shooting a gun and in third person. I would go with open world action game that for some reason comes up in a search for an RPG.

 

Junk.

 

It's a shoot'n'loot.

 

It is a sandbox game.

 

I'll summarize what this game is: It tries to be everything and ends up being absolutely nothing. It tries to be an RPG, it fails. It tries to be a building simulator, Minecraft does it far better, Hell, the Real Time Settler mod for New Vegas does it better. It tries to be an "open sandbox" type of game, but Gmod blows it out of the water when it comes to unlimited freedom to do whatever. It fails as a Survival game because trying to crank up the difficulty just turns everything into a massive bullet sponge, making the game completely unfair to the player. And so forth. It fails spectacularly at every single thing it tries to do, it's embarrassing.

 

Yeah, junk.

 

Hiking simulator 2.0

 

Abstract Horror

 

Sandbox FPS with crafting elements.

 

Happy mass opium, Less guns than POSTAL, Post-apoc Harvest Moon (nope)

 

Drugs.

Mmm, once it get's you it never let's go.

 

If only it was as enjoyable as an injection of opiate.

 

First Person Shitter.

 

Open-World Shooter with RPG elements.

Or, you know, Action Adventure.

 

Shit, i'm more immersed in Stardew Valley than Fo4

 

It's a game with Shooting Elements, RPG Elements, City Building Elements, ECT.

It's essentially a Jack of All Trades, Master of None.

 

Me too.

I would say it is a single player MMO too... If that doesn't work I would say its an adventure shooter with crafting make the player god in less than 10 levels game.

 

Kill

Loot

Return

 

Child neglect simulator.
