    I know the game is dumbed down version after Fallout 3 and Fallout NV but its still not that bad.
    The graphics are nice and animations are good.
    The soundtracks is also fine.
    The story and rpg elements however are very bad.
    The gameplay is fun with the guns and stuff but it has some bugs.
    Open world is ok a bit empty but still worth exploring.

    7/10

    Trotz einiger Probleme (Grafik, Bugs, Bausystem, etc.) dennoch ein spielenswerter Ableger der Serie in welchen ich viele Stunden an Zeit investiert habe.

    Fallout 4 is not a terrible game, but its far from great. The graphics was very outdated even for 2015, shooting is a little annoying too. Animations are again one of the worst in the industry. The plot actually got me hooked on, but at the same time its not the best story. All in all, I would say its a 6-7/10. Playable but could be some much better.

    This is a good game that you first play and enjoy the atmosphere of the map. There are both pros and cons. But do not forget that an unnecessary Sims element was brought in, which not interesting for me, because I came to play fallout.

    Pluses: 1) Grafon. If we compare the 3 part and 4, then the difference is heaven and earth.

But do not forget that an unnecessary Sims element was brought in, which not interesting for me, because I came to play fallout.

    Pluses:
    1) Grafon. If we compare the 3 part and 4, then the difference is heaven and earth. Well, if you compare it with the Witcher, then yes, there are gaps in the graphics, but you can’t compare the cards. In this map you will not find grasses and trees in 90% of cases. This is a depressing post-apocalyptic place, not a walk in the woods.
    2) Change in pumping. Now you do not need to pump each skill up to 100 points in order to master one ability. Now you can see what skill is needed for your passage.
    3) Mini-bosses. Previously, there were only story bosses, and then in the third part they did not differ from ordinary mobs. Now they exist, are separately marked with an asterisk and give a pretty good item after killing, whether it be a weapon or armor. They are not easy to kill, as if you are trying to destroy the death claw (more on that later), and it's interesting.

    Minuses:
    1) Sims. This is an optional matter, okay 1 time I will do a mission with "sims". You can ignore one minetman with terribly annoying missions with the liberation of the territory. But, just walking around, you see a small town with enemies and you think "Hmm, I'm not averse to farming." Killed the cheliks, took the loot and you see this red bandura. And God forbid that you press on him and this town is yours. And what to do with it? Well, yes, you can quit, but the place for farming is shrinking and you want to shoot. There is with 1 mission with a town of inhabitants. Complete the sidequest on 1 of the endings and you will get the city. WHY DO I DO THIS? AND WHAT SHOULD I DO WITH IT? I DON'T WANT TO BE THE PRESIDENT OF THE MUHOSRANSK.
    2) NPS. There are well-designed mobs, and there are dumb ones. Deathclaw is no exception. DEATH CLAW. THE MOST TOUGHEST MOB IN THE GAME, EVEN THE BOSSES CANNOT BE COMPARED TO IT. And he is afraid of water... That's real. Climbed into the river and he lost you. Okay, in a closet in which he does not crawl. This is still understandable. But water...
    3) Bug partners. It happens that you teleport or enter / exit the building and the partners get stuck in the textures. And it happens that you are trying to load a point, and they are sitting there. Bruh moment.    … Expand

Companion AI is often wonky, but there are mods for nearly every part of the game, so if you really want to, you can transform Fallout 4 into a much better version that current day vanilla.

    As a side note, while I don't defend the developers or the greedy parent company that controls them, I do understand that as with all releases, there was most likely a schedule they had to meet and so compromises were probably made in order to satisfy the powers at be resulting in a decent but not superb game.

    As a Fallout game? Bad. But nonetheless it's not making this game the worst experience in the world.
    Things that i like:
    - Atmosphere
    - Weapon/Armor crafting
    - Gun play and well... game play overall
    Things I do NOT like:
    - Preston
    - Voiced hero and this voice acting
    - Dialogues
    - The story
    Overall. Fallout 4 is a good action game with a RPG elements.

    This isn't like previous fallout games, its not much of an RPG. Nonetheless, it has a pretty good open world setting and a decent story, and i spent a lot of time playing this. However, many of the quests are repetitive (Read Preston) and grindy. Mixed bag.

    I have a deep love/hate relationship with this game. As a long time Fallout fan and someone who grew up with the 3rd Fallout game I had high expectations from Fallout 4. While those expectation were not met, Fallout 4 is not a bad game. As time has passed, I've begun to appreciate some of the aspects of the game while also being a bit disappointed about the missed potential of it.

    Pros:    I have a deep love/hate relationship with this game. As a long time Fallout fan and someone who grew up with the 3rd Fallout game I had high expectations from Fallout 4. While those expectation were not met, Fallout 4 is not a bad game. As time has passed, I've begun to appreciate some of the aspects of the game while also being a bit disappointed about the missed potential of it.

    Pros:
    - Gunplay and combat has vastly been improved from other Fallout titles.
    - New settlement system.
    - Perks.
    - Character customization and voice acting.
    - Soundtrack is still same old Fallout.

    Mixed:
    - Quests and story can be hit or miss for some people. Personally I found it bland, while the DLC's offered better quests (Far Harbor).
    - Graphics, some people liked the improvements while other expected more.
    - Companions. While I liked most of the companions, there was some missing character development for most of them and with time they offered nothing but help in combat.
    - Exploration, not bad by any means but can feel a bit empty at times.

    Cons:
    - RPG elements are lacking.
    - Quests or actions no longer have skill point requirements (There was one quest with this feature and that person who worked on that quest worked on the older games).
    - Dialogue option is a joke and offers you false sense of choice.
    - The settlement system is pretty shallow once you get into it (needs more late game stuff).

    Overall, Fallout 4 excels more at being an action shooter instead of a classic action role-playing game. You can put a lot of hours into this game and by no means is it bad. If you are a Fallout fan and loved the older titles, you might have to look past some of the flaws to get more engaged with the game.

    Even today fallout 4 for me is one of the most buggy games ... For me fallout tries to be everything but it is not good at anything, it is just average, since he thinks it is a bigger game than really. The game also has performance problems to this day. And unlike skyrim, your world is not at all interesting to me.

The design quality on both global and detailed level is very well seen in the construction of lore and different side stories that game told to the player. While NPC's/party members are not exceptionnal and writing is average-good at best, it is still quite attaching, just like one of those TV series having +1000 episodes. Just do not expect it to revolutionise your life.

    It is true that game roleplaying mechanics was terribly simplified with respect to other games in the series, but it does not bother me too much, because of big quantity of other things to do in the game.

    Otherwise I find the game technically successfull (graphics, OST, sound and so on).    … Expand

    After terrible first couple of hours Fallout 4 pulled itself together and ultimately was almost as fun as The Witcher 3. There’s a huge chasm between these two games in terms of technology (F4 looks like a X360 game), but their open worlds are equally good and Bethesda did a better job with crafting. [01/2016, p.42]

    This isn’t the step forward I expected, though. Here we are, the first Bethesda game on a new hardware generation, and I can’t help feeling like we’ve regressed—like Fallout 4 really is Oblivion-with-guns. A decade later, it certainly makes many of the same mistakes.

    It’s easy to get carried away by Fallout 4’s massive open world. While the gunplay is much improved and the quests fun, I found the UI lacking on the PC. The inventory and build menus are really tedious to use. [Dec 2015]
