    Things you can do in this game is mind blowing

    this version of fallout 4 doesn't have many mods, which is why it's an 8, and also the story isn't the best, but this is one of the most entertaining fallout games I've played. Gunplay feels good, most mechanics like perks feel good, and settlement system. It can be hit or miss for players but for me it's pretty relaxing and satisfying when the system doesn't have a stroke.

    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

    Quick background on me the reviewer, I tend to like single player games that is heavy on narrative the most. I also play a lot of racing games and use to play multiplayer games in my high school days but now that it's hard for me and my friends to find a good time to link up so now it’s rarer for me to get into a multiplayer game.

Up to try any genre of games and sometimes I find something new that I didn't think I'd like. I own a PC (built by me), Xbox One X, Xbox Series X, PS3, PS4, PS5, and a Switch. I prefer Playstation due to their focus on narrative games. For scoring, I’ll be using the Gameinformer review scale and of course influenced by my personal opinions.

    (8) Very Good. Innovative, but perhaps not the right choice for everyone. This score indicates that there are many good things to be had, but arguably so.

    Who knew exploring a radioactive wasteland can be fun. The Fallout series continues to do a great job with notable companions and NPCs. Just wish they didn't throw camp building and sanctuary missions at you constantly and that the story is arc isn't foreseen from the start. First person shooting has been improved to compared to previous entries of the series, but still could use some work. I also wish there were tough choices to make like previous Fallout games. Now we have a better looking waste land to explore while we wait for the next one.    … Expand

    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

    Skyrim pós-apocalíptico com armas, protagonista com personalidade e dublado e, melhor ainda, totalmente legendado em português. Com certeza vale a pena, principalmente numa promoção. Pegue a versão GOTY.

    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 .

    One of my personal all time favorite games. The base building really helps separate it from any other open world games I have played. Just so much fun beyond the standard storyline

    本シリーズの中でも、ソロプレイでは一番のクオリティを誇るタイトルだと思います。
    ボリュームを重視するとストーリーがないがしろにされがちですが、このタイトルは「脚本」「ゲームとしての面白さ」を両立できており、ストーリー重視のRPGを日頃プレイしているユーザーであっても、満足できるだけのストーリー展開だと思います。
    拠点のビルド、武器のカスタマイズ、アイテム生成といったクラフトの楽しみまで、自由度高く味わえるのも最高です。    本シリーズの中でも、ソロプレイでは一番のクオリティを誇るタイトルだと思います。

    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).

    This is a good game, but it can't stand the atmosphere of the previous chapters. The main problem is that the interesting side quests are non existent compared to the past. I wonder what happened if more budget went to storytelling and quests writing, instead to the "make your own outpost" mechanics.

    The game had a few problems, which translated into a lot of damage. These problems, moving away from the roots of RPG and the imbalance between RPG and shooter, made it not become a top Bethesda game.
    The problem of the dialogue system and the character not being silent and the very few choices of this game was very good overall game

    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.

    One of the most glaring issues with Fallout 4 lies in its narrative. The game's main storyline fails to engage and falls flat compared to the intricate and morally ambiguous narratives of its predecessors. The choices and consequences, which were a hallmark of the series, are disappointingly shallow and fail to have a meaningful impact on the world or the characters. The lack of branchingOne of the most glaring issues with Fallout 4 lies in its narrative. The game's main storyline fails to engage and falls flat compared to the intricate and morally ambiguous narratives of its predecessors. The choices and consequences, which were a hallmark of the series, are disappointingly shallow and fail to have a meaningful impact on the world or the characters. The lack of branching paths and limited dialogue options undermine the sense of agency, leaving players feeling like passive participants rather than active contributors to the story.

    While the game's open world is expansive and visually impressive, it lacks the depth and variety seen in previous entries. The settlements system, touted as a major feature, feels underdeveloped and tedious, with repetitive tasks and limited customization options. The side quests, while numerous, often lack the creativity and complexity that players have come to expect from the franchise, resulting in a sense of monotony and missed opportunities for engaging gameplay.

    Additionally, Fallout 4 suffers from technical issues that hinder the overall experience. From frequent crashes and frame rate drops to glitches and inconsistent AI behavior, these technical flaws break immersion and undermine the game's potential. The lack of polish and attention to detail is particularly disappointing, considering the pedigree of the series and the long development cycle.

    Despite its shortcomings, Fallout 4 does offer solid combat mechanics and improved gunplay. The V.A.T.S. system, which allows players to target specific body parts, adds a tactical element to encounters and injects some excitement into the otherwise lackluster combat. The gun customization system also provides a satisfying sense of personalization and variety in weaponry. However, these gameplay improvements are not enough to compensate for the game's overall weaknesses.

    In conclusion, Fallout 4 is a letdown for fans of the beloved franchise. While it presents a visually impressive open world and refined combat mechanics, the lackluster narrative, technical issues, and missed opportunities prevent it from reaching the heights of its predecessors. This installment fails to capture the essence of what made the Fallout series so captivating, leaving players with a sense of disappointment and a yearning for the depth and innovation that defined earlier entries. Unfortunately, Fallout 4 falls short of its potential and feels like a missed opportunity in the franchise's storied history.    … 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.
