    ho provato proprio ora fallout 4 e, essendo un grande ammiratore della casa produttrice, mi sono ritrovato un gioco che non mi ha saputo coinvolgere al meglio, anche se come idea di trama "originale" mi intrigava molto. Sono rimasto un po deluso da questo fallout

    Just like skyrim this game is shallow...combat is poor,story...exploration is repetitive a loot after a while is boring ..skills in game are fine ...dlc far harbor is better than main game ..nuka world is not that good .....overall poor experience....if you get this game for like 15 euros/dollars then fine have fun more than than noo man

    Bethesda continues to show that they can not keep up with modern times. My first fallout game and I remember how much I loved it, Then I realized other games existed in the series .

    Superior gunplay to prior entries but inferior writing. Response wheel is a downgrade, crafting is way too annoying and involved, central quest is interesting but everything around it feels poorly though-out. Drops a lot of what makes other Fallout games successful in favor of other choices, with mixed results. Still has it's moments though (rad sea).

    Feels like a game that doesn't know what it wants to be,
    a great settlement and building simulator, a first-person shooter, interactive open world, but not that well put together and boring.

You seem to spend too much time picking over the scenery looking for junk for the over-complicated crafting system and getting killed by random baddies who have nothing to do with the ongoing story, which actually discourages exploration. Not a bad game certainly, but the likes of Horizon: Zero Dawn have surpassed it in pretty much every department.… Expand

    Some of the good points of the game are the great quantity and variety of places to explore as well as the new way of building settlements and personalization of weapons that undoubtedly were the mechanics with which I had the most fun.

    Now what about the negative part of the game that most caught my attention was the repetitiveness of the quests mainly from side quests that are almost entirely composed of go somewhere and kill a bunch of invaders or mutants, another thing that disappointed me a lot was The story of Fallout 4 that tries to be profound in the plot of a father in search of his kidnapped son, but that fails miserably in giving us a sense of urgency or attachment to the plot.

    In my opinion this failure is due to the lack of charisma and development of the characters that often appear to have no personality or life of their own as if their existence depended solely on serving the main character making most of the characters in the game easily forgettable except for A few exceptions like Nick Valentine, the synthetic who works as a private detective in Diamond City with a noir style that charms everyone, and the butler robot Codsworth who served the family of his character before the war and that was the 200 years in which you were frozen Care of your old home.

    Finally I can say that Fallout 4 is a good game in the direction of bring us much content, however with some errors and bugs dated and failing to surprise and overcome their predecessors becoming repetitive from a certain point other than Skyrim that until the days Has a lot to offer and certainly does not match the great RPGs of this generation like The Witcher 3 and Dragon Age inquisition. Summarizing Fallout 4 is worth to playing but is not a priority in RPG or worth a full price.    … Expand

    Compared to 3 and New Vegas, I just think this one is much weaker. Not a bad game, just meh. It's not even nostalgia or bias talking, I just think the setting and characters of 3 and New Vegas are just much more memorable and interesting. Who tf cares about Preston Garvey.

    Why Bethesda, why? What could have been a great adventure is pulled down by stupid mechanic of base building, that dont make sence and it works and look terrible. Why you spend time on this **** mechanic instead of properly testing the game.

The story in this game is decent, but not anything to run home about. there's literally no roleplay elements in this game which is where the biggest fault in this game lies. Some characters are cool and there are some badass weapons in the game and the factions are pretty awesome in this game. The commonwealth map is pretty fun to explore and I fairly enjoy the dlc.

    Fun, at times a bit repetitive and a little tiring, Fallout 4 is an overall enjoyable, relaxed and intriguing action RPG. I'm not a big fan of the franchise, but the story and its characters are very fun, very interesting to learn more about. The game, just like other Bethesda games, has its quirky, buggy, but build-with-love DNA.

    One of Bethesda's biggest missed opportunities, so much of this game could have been great but as with all Bethesda games it was released in a state resembling half finished and had things that should have been day 1 pushed on us with DLC and the rest left to modders. Microsoft please save this franchise.

    The first and only fallout game I have played (sadly) and I had a lot of fun looking back at it. I plan to play other titles thanks to Gamepass so my opinion on this game could change, but for now it’s a solid 7. I would say it’s pretty good but doesn’t excel at anything.

    Зачем было делать так чтобы, выбрав одну из сторон, ты АВТОМОТИЧЕСКИ теряешь все связи с остальными. Меня заставляют, искусственно, проходить игру 2 раза, чтобы увидеть весь сюжет полностью. Это не честно!
    К тому же чью бы ты сторону не избрал: Подземку, Институт, Братство стали или даже Минитменов, ты всё равно окажешся подлецом и придателем. Очень странно. Отыграть хорошего человека в Fallout 4 не получится.
    Добавили это идиотское строительство, кому это надо? Хотели объять все жанры - не выйдет!
    Производительность на PS4 так себе, fps часто сильно падает.
    Опять таки та атмосфера апокалипсиса, какая была в третьей части, пропала, толи из-за картинки, толи, почему то ещё, не знаю.
    Ещё нет русской озвучки, а жаль, погружение в мир игры страдает. А для таких атмосферных игр это очень важно.
    О, эти возрождающиеся противники. Это же Fallout, как я понимаю, очень дорогая игра, а не какая то бюджетная инди разработка. Так навскидку. Я зачистил от супер мутантов один дом, когда вернулся в эту локацию из соседней, дом был опять полон этими же мутантами и так много раз. Хотели заполнить жизнью мир игры? Ну замените мутантов на рейдеров, а за тем на каких-нибудь гулей. А то замочил мутанта, ушел, вернулся, а он опять живой, на своём же месте, трупы пропали. Ё маё, это же портит всё ощущение живого мира! И куда исчезли мои любимые кентавры?
    А в остальном вроде ничего, шутан подкрутили, анимацию тоже, броню проработали, а так же.........всё.

The shooting feels completely different from Fallout 3 and New Vegas, and for the first time, I feel like shooting my way out of a situation is more fun than talking through dialogue. Now that the positives are out of the way, I have to say that Bethesda really ruined what they had began to build up within the series. They've oversimplified nearly every RPG element that made the last two games fun and exciting. The dialogue system lacks any real depth and the fact that they added voice acting to the protagonist makes it feel less like I made my own unique character, and more like Bethesda made one for me and I just happen to be able to control him. The leveling up system is no longer enjoyable either, and the writing and plot are so bad and downright insulting to the intelligence of the player that it feels like Bethesda just gave up caring. Fallout 3 was a love letter to the original Fallout games, while this felt like it was just an excuse for Bethesda to keep their hands onto the Fallout IP.… Expand

    Feral Ghoul ugly in many ways, but beneath its iffy exterior beats the heart of one helluva great RPG. Get past the graphics deficiency, and the sheer thrill of Fallout 4’s combat, crafting options, and exploring will hold your attention for months. [January 2015, p64]

    Fallout 4 leans to the Shooting side of things. It strips down the gameplay from the actual RPG elements and offers a meta-nuclaer shooting gallery which of course keep its charm and gameplay wealth but also feels a little too friendly for the new comers. The Base builder mode is unnecessary, boring and irritating. Unfortunately, overall, there are no steps forward for this Nuclear Holocaust Behemoth of the video games industry. Only steps sideways.
