    I actually bought this game today and have been playing for a few hours. I'm only leaving this review to cancel out some of the completely exaggerated negative reviews on here.

It's obvious most of the people leaving 1/10 reviews have not even played the game and are just on a hate campaign against Bethesda for whatever reason.

    The game feels like a vastly improved version of fallout 3, with better character interaction and smoother combat. It's a FPS/RPG hybrid like FO3, but you can tell they decided to take it in a more action-oriented direction. However, statistics are still a big part of the game and you have to plan in advance which perks you want to get or you'll end up with a gimped character. If you enjoyed FO3 or FO NV, you will also enjoy this title. My biggest issue with the game thus far is some minor technical issues, but I'm sure they will be resolved with the next patch. However, I have not encountered any major technical issues or bugs and the game plays smoothly pretty much the entire time.

    I advice everyone to disregard the clearly biased hateful reviews and make up their own mind. If you liked any of the 3D fallout titles, chances are you will fall in love with this latest incarnation as well.    … Expand

    Simply put, the game is lovely, and looks fantastic on PS4. People complaining about the graphics need their eyes checked. I am a major graphics nut, have a very nice PC with a GTX970, but I have a thing about buying Bethesda games on console so I am not tempted to use console commands, so I got the PS4 version. Is it a graphics Marvel, no it isnt, but its still a beautiful game. If you were a fan of Fallout 3 and New vegas you will notice just how vibrant and bright the colors and art styles are. I entered a hidden passageway that reminded me of Wolfenstein: The New order in design yesterday, impressive visually.

    Gameplay thus far is great, guns handle way better than previous Fallout games and the design your character and building a settlement in the first 5 hours or so of the game had me hooked. Its like a game within a game, love the creativity with it and the weapon building. I think any real fallout3 fan is going to love it.

    I havent actually run into bugs but that's part of the charm on Bethesda games. Unless its a game killing bug, most of the bugs are a minor annoyance at best. Framerate has been fine for me thus far, but I have heard its a bit low on Xbox One at times, having it's AMD 7790 GPU running 1080p on it was probably a bad idea, they should have stuck with 900p or 720p like most other games. I have a sneaking suspicion MS had a hand in it being 1080p even if the performance suffered.

    I played Morrowind for 500 plus hours on the original Xbox when it was much worse looking than the PC version and had much lower framerates, So PS4 having slightly less than 30 with dips near 20 doesnt really bother me. I'll get on PC eventually when the Mods hit and enjoy better graphics then. For now, you cant go wrong with this game unless your wanting perfection, or bought an Xbox One.    … Expand

    20 hrs in and so far i have encountered zero bugs (ps4 digital copy). No crashing, no rubberbanding, no noticeable frame rate drops. I dont see why this game is getting so many low scores. Realistically it prob deserves an 8 or 9 but i rated it higher to compensate for all the ridiculously low scores the haters are giving

    I see this game as almost like an rpg/fps hybrid. If you enjoy both you will prob enjoy this game. But if you are super hardcore about your rpgs then you may not enjoy it as much as some of the other fallout games. Ive always played games more for the adventure and exploration then for story and characters. If you want quality writing, story and characters read GOT. If you want to have fun shooting up baddies while exploring a beautiful exciting world then play fallout 4.    … Expand

    Fallout 4 is one of those games that is enjoyable to play in spite of itself. A PC port lacking fundamental options (I had to edit 2 separate .ini files to change the FOV and turn off Mouse Acceleration), a UI optimized for consoles, and a LOT of bugs all try desperately to make it so you won't have a good time. In my first 6 hours of play, I lost at least an hour of progress due to aFallout 4 is one of those games that is enjoyable to play in spite of itself. A PC port lacking fundamental options (I had to edit 2 separate .ini files to change the FOV and turn off Mouse Acceleration), a UI optimized for consoles, and a LOT of bugs all try desperately to make it so you won't have a good time. In my first 6 hours of play, I lost at least an hour of progress due to a mixture of bugs that locked up the game (always quicksave before using a terminal), and a horribly sporadic autosaving system. Additionally, the movement feels extremely dated. The AP you use to activate VATS also serves as a stamina meter that you use up while running (a la Skyrim). That's right, a stamina meter that gates how long you can run, in an open world game where 90% of your time is going to be spent running. I didn't like the mechanic in Skyrim, and I like it even less now.

    But despite all of that, I find myself about 10 hours in, and wanting to play more of it, once I finish writting this review. The fundamental exploration is solid, the crafting system is interesting, and actually gives me a justification to pick up literally everything I possibly can, and the settlement system seems to have a decent amount of potential. The shooting is actually serviceable, compared to Fallout 3, but you'll still likely find yourself going into VATS on certain enemies with erratic movement patterns to try and conserve ammo.

    Basically, I think that if you didn't like Fallout 3, there's almost no way you'll like Fallout 4. If you wanted to like Fallout 3, but couldn't because of the shooting mechanics/VATS, then you'll probably have a good time here. If you loved Fallout 3, and want more, then this is the game for you, but just know what you're getting yourself into. This is not a perfect game, or even a fantastic game in the year 2015, despite what many reviewers have said. Go back to 2011 or 2008, and my opinion would likely be different, but in 2015 I think this is a really solid exploration FPS/RPG with a lot of problems. If you're on the fence about this game, then don't get it now. I don't think I'd have a hard time recommending the game for $40, but $60 is just a bit steep (imo) for how many problems it has.    … Expand

I like that they seem to have taken Fallout 3 and upgraded some of the more negative aspects of that game (better color pallette, more interaction with the environment to name a couple off the top of my head). There is much more crafting in Fallout 4 than in 3, which gives you uses for a lot of that junk you find. I feel this makes it more immersive. The items you build seem to have use beyond aesthetic, but time will tell if there really is a noticeable difference in the Heavy build 10mm pistol vs the Light build 10mm pistol. Even if there isn't, the game is open to modding and I'm sure it won't be long before many in game systems are tweaked and/or made tweakable by the gamer.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First of all, it must be said that this game is nowhere near complete on PS4. The graphics/textures are awful and the framerate frequently dips; it's crashed several times with generic error codes; and there are numerous gameplay issues:

    1.) There's no indication of mission difficulty ANYWHERE in the PipBoy. I just stumbled upon the Mirelurk Queen at level 13 and I can't do anything but barely scratch her with my pea shooters. Where are the indicators for mission difficulty? And I wasn't able to talk to Preston without doing this mission, so if he dies because I flee, both of my other missions that depend on him will most likely fail. I was able to talk to him, but he kept saying "we must focus on clearing this castle." Like he can't talk to me about other business while we clear the castle? COME ON!

    2.) The Ghouls can lunge literally 20-30 feet, and you can't strategically engage combat on any scuttling creature. Humanoid foes can hit you with their spraying bullets from behind cover. I have screenshots of enemies behind pipes and walls with bullets still hitting me. If you sprint, you lose your AP; every battle ends up being a straight line backward shuffle trying to keep away from enemies that can do half of your health in damage by lunging and smacking you from 20 feet away. And your dog or whomever you have with you as a companion? Yeah, HAHA, good luck! Most often my dog is down within seconds, or just standing there doing nothing as the hoards advance on me. Pointless, stupid, and awful AI.

    3.) The building system is completely stupid, boring, and lacks motivation. Some missions force you to do some of it, and for scavenging and breaking down components it's a necessary addition, but ultimately it's stupid.

    4.) AP drains way too quickly unless you waste precious SPECIAL points trying to build it up at lower levels. Everything drains AP, too, including sprinting? What the...? Melee...AP drain; spring...AP drain; which leaves almost none for VATS.

    5.) The idiot dog keeps standing in doorways and blocks your way in and out of combat. And when you have to trade with the meat sack to load your gear onto him, he runs off and you can't target him to get the command list!!! And speaking of the dog carrying loot, it's equally stupid and unnecessary...why not just let my character carry all of it himself??!!!??!

    6.) Everything upgrade on EVERY gun or armor requires freaking adhesive, which is in such rare supply that you MAYBE can do one or two upgrades for every 7 hours of picking up worthless gear that you have absolutely zero knowledge of how it pieces together, how it will work, or anything. There aren't any guides or anything in the game to steer you along the proper path. If you're not at a workbench, good luck figuring out which components are required to upgrade your stupid gun.

    7.) The worst offense: it's NO different than Fallout 3. Absolutely zero difference, and with the graphics and crashing problems, it's actually worse. This game has been hyped and hyped, as usual, to make a cash grab of gamers, but Bethesda should be ashamed and embarrassed to release a product this incomplete and buggy, not to mention frustrating. I realize they cater to the PC gamers and they'll fix all the problems for Bethesda, but we console owners demand better since we can't fix these problems on our machines. This game is going back and being uninstalled until such time as this garbage is fixed. I'm highly upset at spending this kind of money on a game this poor quality. And nice job with the embargo on the reviews until the day of to make sure no one else knew of this garbage in advance. Must be nice to buy space on Conan and hype up a game this embarrassingly poor. I'm sorry that I'm speaking like this, but I think it's a downright scam that companies are taking advantage of gamers over and over again. It shows you have zero respect for the people lining your pockets. Over and over again, companies aren't giving us next gen anything, it's bug-ridden, latency-ridden, framerate-stuttering, day one nonsense. Destiny and now this, this generation of gaming has nothing of its former self, just the same - or worse - garbage from the last gen with maybe a few graphical sparkles thrown in for good measure. How is this "next gen?"    … Expand

Although I am about 20 hrs in to the game and this game does not have nearly as many bugs as Skyrim. It seems that every great game that has come out this year has had optimization problems. Let's hope that Bethesda will be patching this as well.

    Second, The learning curve is very steep. It is not hard to get lost in all the mechanics and it is a bit unfortunate that this head spinning affect kind of detracts from the start of the story. My suggestion is to go in for a few hours on a character and then start over so that you can really enjoy everything without worrying about figuring out mechanics.

    This is such a massive game with a ton of working parts. Once you get past the learning curve, that's when the real fun begins.

    The conversations and voice acting are much improved from Skyrim and Fallout 3 or NV. There are people that you actually get to know. The gun play is a huge improvement and my favorite part is tweaking my guns down to the last piece. Waiting for a mediocre gun with an awesome scope so that I can take it to upgrade my best sniper.

    The best part is that you can do what ever you want. Want to be a muscle bound cannibal that heals in radiation and kills super mutants with a tire iron. Go for it. Want to build a ton of settlements and repopulate the world with followers. Do it. Want to massively specialize or average all of your stats out and be a jack of all trades. Completely up to you. The possibilities are endless.

    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.

    Don't you hate it when people give a game zero that they haven't even played. Fallout 4 came out yesterday, it's a 40 hour game. So your telling me you beat that whole 40 hours yesterday, either your super good or a liar. I dont think you should review a game unless you beat it because Fallout 4 is a massive game and there is always something that someone will like. And 0, really!!

A zero is a game like Big Rigs or Rogue Warrior that are almost unplayable, if you want to compare Fallout 4 with Big Rigs than your standards are way too high. Most of the people creating fake accounts and fake reviews are Witcher 3 fans that feel threatened by this game.… Expand

    Почему неосиляторы не могут принять отказ от рудиментов в РПГ? Игроки не понимают, что отыгрыш мешает жанру, не позволяет развернуться сценаристам.

    Диалоги тоже убивали РПГ, ведь молчание персонажа не позволяло прочувствовать игру и жить ей. Сейчас всем очевидно, что лучше пожертвовать стенами текста и разными вариантами ответов, чтобы наслаждаться атмосферой игры.
    Бетесда двигает жанр в правильном направлении, надеюсь, в следующем тес она тоже использует наработки из Ф4.
    Надеюсь, им хватит смелости отказаться от ещё одной опухоли в жанре - открытого мира. Разработчик вынужден тратить тысячи часов на расстановку предметов по карте, хотя можно было бы ограничиться красивым прохождением аккуратной локации по прямой. Ставлю 10/10.

    The gameplay feels fresh while still retaining the old Fallout charm. There are a few bugs present, as there are in almost all open world games, but the strengths of Fallout 4 vastly outweigh its weaknesses. Play this game for the atmosphere, the experience, and for the rich open world full of adventure. 9/10

    Fallout 4 is nowhere near as bad as a lot of these reviews make out. Fallout 4 is also not quite as good as some of these reviews make out. After playing for a couple of hours I've had an amazing time with the game, but I can see why people would have some problems with the game, lets make it clear, Fallout 4 does not warrant any of these 0/10 scores at all.

There are some bugs and some problems with the game play, but there's also a great open world to explore and an interesting story tying the world together. It's well worth the £40 you can buy it for and will provide hours upon hours of enjoyment. Don't believe the hype but also don't believe the negative backlash.… Expand

    Amazing game! Much better story than in F3, beautiful graphics and great crafting system. Ever since I left Vault 111 it took my attention like sponge. I recommend this game to everyone who likes post-apo games. Absolutely No. 1! (Maybe except for Skyrim). I completely don't understand those, who rate it 0. I suppose it is the first game they have ever played.

    A strong return for the franchise, boasting incredible customisation, a fascinating world and brutal yet brainy shooting, slightly tarnished by lacklustre AI and tedious inventory management. [Christmas 2015, p.88]

    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.
