The 3rd person system is really bad and feels like most of the time it's pointless to use because you will miss a lot of loot! Then we have that AWEFULL buildsystem for the towns.. They must have tried it out right? because no normal dev would bring something that bad in to a game.
    The RP is really bad and Story is not good at all either! The game feels so unfinished with all bugs that pops ups! And this must be the first game in years if played that doesn't use a Checkpoint system, instead it autosaves every 10min.
    Overall its not a good game and you should not listen to the 10+ votes. go read the 4 - 7 reviews if you want the honest opinion of this game.    … Expand

    It is disappointing to see how people who know nothing about the depth and complexity of fallout are not only okay with, but also ask for the simplification, or 'skyrimification' of the franchise. The removal of karma and skills, the latter being a fundamental part of the special system, are unacceptable.

    Very disappointed by this game. I was going to give it a 4, but after seeing the volume of 10's, I had to give it a 0 to balance things out. This is no way a 10/10 game. Drops frame rates like crazy. I couldn't order my dog around - it glitched out bad, treating all my dog commands as commands to Codsworth, and vice versa.

Enemies shoot at you through walls, even though they shouldn't be able to see you. Quest dialogue is poor, mostly useless. Trading and inventory management is tiresome, tedious, and not fun at all. Most of the quests are boring. First person shooting is, honestly, the worst I've ever played. The UI is horrendous. The only good thing about this is the music. Fortunately, you don't need the game for that. I highly recommend avoiding this altogether.… Expand

    The game is horrible compared to Fallout 3, almost all the fun features have been removed or dumbed down.
    All there is a left is a boring, empty world with nothing meaningful to do. Not to mention all the technical glitches and slow downs that make the game nigh unplayable themselves.

    Decepción absoluta con el juego, es una castaña llena de bugs y siento que esta estafa de sacar juegos bugueados está deteriorando la imagen de las empresas, que ya no miman sus juegos, sino que sueltan un alto contenido de absurdeces como el minecraft de hacerte tu pueblo. Es ridículo como han destrozado la libertad de maniobra.

    Biggest disappointment of the year. This game is just awful. Graphics look like from 2005 and FPS is so weak that you get headache if you play on sizeable tv. Story and other characters are boring. The world also feels very empty and there isn't that atmosphere fallouts used to have.

    Generally, instead of RPG we received almost stupid shooter. This game - one big disappointment.

    A quick summary for any of you page scrollers: If you're a fan of fallout (particularly NV), you're going to be majorly disappointed. If you're someone whos a big RPG fan, you're going to be disappointed. If you're neither of those you might have a good time with the game but if you do i strongly advise you whip out the last gen systems and play FO3/NV (Especially NV).

    The graphics are disappointing for a 2015 game, even Skyrim on the PS3 back in 2011 has better graphics than Fallout 4's. Sure it may have better graphics than the previous Fallout games. But compared to previous Bethesda titles and other 2015 games. This was just a disappointment.

    None of the characters are interesting. Among 100+ NPCs I can only remember 3-4 of them.

    Fallout 4 is the first console game to feature mods... on XBOX ONE and obviously PC. Since Fallout 4's launch Bethesda had worked with Sony to try and get mods to PS4. Sony how ever denied them. I'm not blaming the lack of PS4 mods on Bethesda. This is 100% Sony's fault.

    So that's pretty much my review of Fallout 4. A watered down "Roleplaying" game with less content than PC and XBOX ONE users.    … Expand

    I got the impression that a lot of time and effort was put into making the downtown area grandiose, large scale and overwhelming. Towering dilapidated skyscrapers dot the sky and some are even explorable to a degree. While other areas are barren, nonsensical, quirky or not ideal or logical. Secure locations are abandoned, dilapidated structures are for some reason ideal to live in. Survivors living in remote locations with hostiles all around. Enemy groups with opposing ideals so close they could be considered in the same area. Gunners sharing a rooftop or overpass with Super Mutants, while raiders are just below. There is enough real-estate on the map for these groups to have a bit more room from each other in a more natural way. I feel that this was not done. Repetition also sets in when you finish killing Super mutants and you predict Raiders next, then Gunner will follow, or Synths and then Raiders. The scale and size of the map seems smaller then other Bethesda titles and I believe this is due to having mostly open cells and a lot of assets in a small area. There is nonsensical placement of Power Armor for every 2-5 minute in game walk. I give this aspect 0. as it breaks my suspension of disbelief.

    Story/Writing:
    It is a rehash of Fallout 3, Lazy and embarrassing. In all Bethesda's games many things can be fixed by modders from textures to sounds to levelling. The core quest in the game can only be fixed if it is removed or replaced and that will likely not happen. Most of the side quests and Faction quests are tied into the main quest giving no player agency. The player can't choose to evade the quests and all replayability is lost.

    Dialogue:
    Lazy, mediocre, repetitive, insulting.

    NPC's:
    Aesthetically they are recognizable though their writing subtracts from this. Lip Sync is an awful mess. Too many NPCs rely on leveled actor lists which leads to repeat faces and generically named characters with no substance or value.

    Combat:
    It was improved in some ways, lack of weapon types, ammo types, more defined specialization detracts from this.

    Player Character:
    Player character gets its own category as this has always been very important not only in Fallout but also Elder Scrolls. The player having a full back story that plays out throughout the game in a unavoidable way breaks replayability, immersion and player agency.

    Attributes/Skills/Perks:
    Attributes seem superficial and only help in getting more caps or better at killing stuff. Skills were removed and perks seem superficial and only help in getting more caps or better at killing stuff.

    Loot:
    Bad.The loot in Fallout 4 is 3 sided. Crafting, killing and collecting. These three sides are of a triangle and are always connected, junk is for killing to help you get more junk for crafting which helps you collect things that will help you kill and craft. It's boring and repetitive.

    Voice Acting:
    Repetitive, most conversations are based off of the radiant quest and the same lines are heard over and over. Not enough voice diversity, Abernathy guy plays a dozen characters and gets old fast, Male voiced protagonist is embarrassing. The female is good, but having her waste her potential on player voice subtracts from her use in the game. Using Linda Carter in ever Bethesda game is getting really old, please stop, she can't voice act.

    Replayability:
    I can't find any, I tried real hard too. Honestly, if the story was ripped from the game and all NPCs were unessential I might give it a try. I can forgive most aspects listed here, but if I find the story insulting and painful what can I do? When I say I find it insulting and painful, I'm not being edgy, I mean it. I feel like I am being spat in the face and kicked in the nuts when it comes to the story and plot.

    Exploration:
    It honestly wouldn't be so bad if the game was better balanced and it wasn't a focus on shoot and loot.

    Music:
    Stunning and incredible 10/10 Zion is a god of music, however, the radio music is copy paste from Fallout 3 and the lack of effort really shows.    … Expand

    I know the world has been a bad place lately....but no one deserved this. The most disgusting, vile piece of trash to ever be released on console. It is an insult to the gaming industry and a complete shambles of an RPG. Only give this to your enemies and even thn feel really horrible about it! Really sad day for humanity

In Skyrim the loot box at the end was an added bonus to whatever unique way the dungeon went, but in fallout 4 there is nothing unique about any of the locations, you either fight synths, super mutants, raiders, or animals. no variation at all. ive wasted so much time on this game. Not to mention the dlc they added is obviously just cut content, like armor racks and weapon racks ( the weapon racks can be see in the main menu teaser) the fact that so many people praise this game baffles me.… Expand

    Trash as a game. Absolute trash if compare this "game" with, for example, WItcher-3

    Do not bother with this game. Try something more interesting: Witcher, Uncharted, Bloodbourne, XCom-2. Anything! Even some Indy-games may be better than Fallout-4.

    Shame, Bethesda, just shame.

    The latest trend in game sequels is something called streamlining. You take a game that was successful by virtue of its deep and engrossing gameplay, and in an effort to make it 'more accessible' to the sort of fringe case gibbering idiots who didn't buy the last installment, you remove all of the complexity that led to the success of the original.

    To be poignant 13d20hr18m
    into my latest Survival No kills save

    It's absolute garbage; Bethesda should be ashamed.

    As a kid I used to play Morrowind on the PC, Watching your modding community flourish around the Construction Set was beautiful. The game itself didn't need character narration; the game was smooth, the characters were well thought out (Vivec, Dagoth Ur still bring a smile to my minds eye), There was a massive depth to your plot back then it seemed. I could depend on dropping into this RPG for hours at a time; if even just to play around with different cheats or spells for sillies. ( or even better mods from the community)
    With Fallout 4 . . . on Survival. . . I hope you realize your engine's bugs crash the game every 30m - 2 hrs consistently right? yet the game of the year edition came out and i see no updates fixing these issues. . . seemingly you want everyone seeing a loading screen (laments; fast traveling in lower difficulty with a smaller loot tree)
    every 30 min or the game will crash due to zone renderings, or any # of other immersion breaking issues.
    ( i have had cars thrown into me by companions instantly killing me, even discovered running into said cars sitting still can be fatal. . .)
    I am sure every player has noticed falling cars from highways and other needless animations that bug up the engine, when all we did was max-craft our character to run fast through the zones (because minutemen) and here we are, un-immersed, probably broke due to the expansions/skins, and nothing to really show for it except our Bethesda Fandom. . . & all the aforementioned hours spent in a broken game you refuse to spend any time(or $) fixing . . . despite how much money we have literally just thrown at you.
    I can't even fathom how much you probably make off these ripoff's you call creations in your club but it is downright despicable how you went from a Construction Set to a Creation Club. . .
    & you think your better than EA. . . Tsk, tsk.

    Watching the hype following your latest presentation at E3 I am feeling all sorts of deja vu when compared to f4's hype.
    I am not enthused, I am not excited.
    I am mildly disgusted and sad to see a great company brought so low by it's shareholder greed.

    Until you start acting more like Cd Projekt Red
    (you know a responsible game developer that keeps it's audience in mind, doesn't give in to corporate greed, and seemingly loves doing what it set out to do in the first place; creating)
    I won't be buying your games. I am done. You gave up on me. Us.
    & we are legion.
    you?

    It's a mediocre AAA game at best, probably why so many ignorant gamers enjoy it, because they've never explored anything else.

The world is pretty much empty except for raiders and bugs and what not, and filled with enormous amounts of trash that you are compelled to pick up so you can craft various armor and weapon upgrades, or to build pieces for the useless settlements. In fact, that seems to be the main point of the game. Collect trash, and build and maintain settlements all over the map.

    The graphics are very sub-par, so is the music/soundtrack. I was surprised how poor the game looked. Not much of a step up from Fallout 3. Controls are super clunky on PS4. I had the hardest time aiming and targeting.

    There really are so many much better games available for PS4/PS5, I don't know why anyone would bother with this trash.    … Expand

    Worst Fallout game, not even a RPG. Far Cry style FPS with rpg leveling system in fallout universe. Quests are boring and have no alternative ways to finish. Dialogs are on school level writing. Every location has mass enemies with nothing interesting to interact withwith.

    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.
