Your thoughts on MORE workshop DLC?

Wouldn't it be funny if Farcry gets a post apoc spin off or dlc/reskin and completely blows Fallout 4 away. A well written tongue in cheek send off of the post apoc genre, ala Blood Dragons pastiche of 80's action movie troupes. It could indirectly shade Bethsoft and parody the dumber aspects seen in newer Fallout and post apoc games.

Considering how Fallout 4 plays, it would have been better if they had just made the game in the Far Cry engine to begin with.
 
Why bother learning a new engine when you can just keep milking the same two decade old one?

You repeat this line for modders and see what happends. Modders are last people who'll ever want engine swap.

Honestly. I could care less about the general jank in these games if a well known and proven engine can provide me with years of extended content through the modding community. Its also never been just the engine, only Bethesda use of it. Gambyro has been used by lots of games that don't have Fallout/Elder Scrolls levels of nonsense associated with them.

If/when they do another wasteland workshop style DLC it has to have either something interesting with a ton of scripting or a huge amount of custom assets. I finally got a chance to see just what they added in the first WW drop and its pretty pathetic, mostly what modders had already accomplished without even the GECK. The idea that they charged people for it is pretty fucked up and I hope they pick it up whenever they give it another shot.

The writing and voice acting is actually decent in Saints Row.

Neither are good in Fallout 4. In fact I've rage-quit the game over how embarrassing the writing is not just for an RPG but for any videogame. "SH..SHAA SHAWN WHAR MY SON WHAR SHAWN" and other cringe-inducing lazy nonsense.

There's more depth to the characters, better voice acting, and better writing in the 4X strategy games I've been playing lately than in Fallout 4.

You know what's worse than fallout 4's shitty writing? It's overall lack of writing... Seriously, no one wants to talk to you. The commonwealth's a lonely place more akin to purgatory than a wasteland.

I spent the first 20 hours looking for someone to talk to when the game came out. No joke. 20 hours. Not one actual RPG conversation like in every single previous Fallout game.

I expected Fallout 3 again and instead got some abomination made by casual FPS players.

You can literally, no exaggeration, have more meaningful interaction with the various factions of 4X Strategy games than you can with the characters in Fallout 4.

Dayum, 20 houry without a conversation is really depressing. I spent 3 months playing it from time to time and I didn't even knew what the fuck is bugging me. This whole open world shooting thing was THIS shocking.
