This thread is where I will try and keep up-to-date player rates/ranks of all the Fallout games, in all the platforms I can remember (Metacritic, Steam, GOG.com, Glitchwave).
I will make these listings from the highest-rated to lowest-rated game.
So here it is, what other people think about the Fallout games:
Steam (rate from 1 to 100):
GOG list now has FO4 GOTY ratings, since the game is now also on GOG!
Also added all the FO4 GOTY ratings for all platforms on Metacritic.
Apparently, the FO4 GOTY on Steam is a bundle package (base game and all DLCs) and not a full game with a store page like FO3 GOTY or FNV UE. So the FO4 GOTY has no ratings on Steam.
All Fallout games (except the newly added FO4) on GOG lost 0.1 on the overall rating, while the verified owner rating stayed the same.
I will be honest, I thought the ratings for most, if not all the games would be changing on all platforms due to the Fallout TV series, but it seems like the amount of changes is pretty consistent with the other times I updated this list.
