    Antigamente, o melhor Fallout que existia era o Fallout 3, mas depois que eu conheci o Fallout 4, ele ficou no meu coração!

    In the past, the best Fallout that existed was Fallout 3, but after I met Fallout 4, it stayed in my heart!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. War war never changes and neither do fallout games it seems. Now dont get me wrong this is a fun game and the settlement building is great the graphics are goo the combat is great and overall its a fun game my favorite in the franchise better than three but three was way more RPG then four and thats where it lacks it feels way to open world FPS for my liking of course there are decisions but not to the same extent as the others games overall great game though Expand

    Fallout 4 is a splendid game with good graphics and new features and the mod menu and dlcs to the game . The power armors are not like the wearable ones in Fallouts 3 and new vegas. It feels like a tank. Totally playable. But the story is an exact copy like fallout 3

    It's a great game. But, in comparison to Fallout 3/NV, it's almost like a few steps back were taken. For example, i find the loss of the original skill points system a bit of a flop, as with the new S.P.E.C.I.A.L/perk system, which just feels a bit sloppy. On the flip side, there is a huge selection of perks to chose from, which can all be levelled to your choosing, and with no level capIt's a great game.

On the flip side, there is a huge selection of perks to chose from, which can all be levelled to your choosing, and with no level cap you can essentially make a perfect character.

    Game play wise, i love it. The graphics (Even on my low spec Xbox one) are a huge improvement over Fallout 3/NV, with great visuals and colouring. The shooting mechanics feel good, as well as the pip boy, map etc. Crafting is also majorly improved, as you can now tag the objects you need to make a certain mod for a gun, amour etc.

    I enjoyed the quest line, if anything i found it to be a little bit too short. It's not quite as impressive as the Fallout 3/NV quest line, but enjoyable none the less. Side quests do get very repetitive however, but with the addition of a few good DLC's this changed my view on the game a fair bit.

    Overall, it's a good game. It's got the odd classic Bethesda bug here and there, but it's a very enjoyable game none the less.

    Fallout is a fantastic Rpg that has seen many transformations over the decades. Since Bethesda acquired the Fallout IP in 2007 the series has stayed as a first person shooter. Many fans prefer fallout 3 to 4 but not me. 3 is fantastic, and it's no secret that 4 takes a step back, but the combination of gameplay, characters, and story make 4 the best Bethesda fallout game.

    Awaking to a neighborhood on the brink of nuclear fallout was mesmerizing to me. Bethesda nail this opening sequence and it sets the tone for the rest of the game. You exit the vault and begin your journey through the wasteland, and what a marvelous journey it is.

    Walking through the wasteland listening to glorious 40s and 50s music on the radio is fun and frankly never gets old.

    Um resumo antes de irmos mais a fundo nessa review: O jeito em que tudo funciona neste jogo é sensacional. 10 anos atrás eu tentei jogar Fallout 3 e simplesmente a experiência não chegou nem perto do que tive com Fallout 4. O mundo é fantástico, a exploração é prazerosa, o combate é lento porém satisfatório, a progressão funciona exatamente como deveria funcionar em um jogo desse tipo. OUm resumo antes de irmos mais a fundo nessa review: O jeito em que tudo funciona neste jogo é sensacional. 10 anos atrás eu tentei jogar Fallout 3 e simplesmente a experiência não chegou nem perto do que tive com Fallout 4. O mundo é fantástico, a exploração é prazerosa, o combate é lento porém satisfatório, a progressão funciona exatamente como deveria funcionar em um jogo desse tipo. O que eu senti jogando Fallout New Vegas (preciso jogar mais para ter um local de fala adequado, mas saiba que eu joguei Fallout New Vegas por algumas horas) é que o jogo é um ótimo RPG e um péssimo jogo de Ação, a mecanica é lenta, as armas são terríveis, a movimentação é péssima; Fallout 4 é o contrário de tudo isso.

    Acho que o maior detalhe que eu quero destacar aqui é que este é um jogo da Bethesda, ou seja, não tem um modo 'correto' de se jogar, você apenas faz o seu jogo e quando decidir que é hora de seguir alguma quest então será a hora de fazê-la. O que mais me impressionou é a profundidade em que as coisas ocorrem no mundo, simplesmente ao andar por ai você consegue perceber que as coisas acontecem, e isso é simplesmente (fantástico) natural, esse jogo funciona a modo de te engajar em seus pequenos detalhes de mundo, em quests extremamente bem colocadas no cenário, seja uma carta em um local, seja com um complexo labirinto cheio de armadilhas, ou seja ao encontrar uma pessoa vivendo reclusa no meio do nada e que precisa da sua ajuda. A todo momento este jogo grita "por favor não use a viagem rápida", pois ao andar você irá encontrar a maior parte do conteúdo por trás do mundo de Fallout 4. Para finalizar este tópico gostaria de destacar a beleza destruidora de Boston neste game. Pra ser sincero, os gráficos são okay, já se passaram 8 anos no momento em que estou escrevendo essa review, a iluminação e os detalhes do clima, como os raios divinos, a neblina na parte da manhã, e as tempestades cheias de radiação (que criam uma atmosfera única e assustadora, principalmente na primeira vez que você precensia isso) irão envelhecer muito bem com o passar dos anos; um trabalho fantástico por parte da Bethesda.

    A progressão nos níveis e o sistema S.P.E.C.I.A.L são definitivamente um dos meus pontos com sentimentos mistos. Eu gosto da experiência de lentamente progredir no game, isso faz com que eu tenha que pensar exatamente em como distribuir meus pontos para fazer minha build. Mas ainda assim, em alguns momentos senti uma dificuldade imensa em progredir, tendo que farmar em algumas quests, em especial as com as crianças chatas da Irmandade do Aço. Ainda com essa lentidão, ao distribuir corretamente cada ponto e ver seu personagem com um dano aumentado ou com alguma habilidade nova, você sente que está fazendo um progresso dopaminoso; é simplesmente incrível como essa terrível demora faz com que cada level up valha a pena.

    O sistema de construção é uma das partes destaque deste jogo, é compreensível que a Bethesda queira vender DLC com mais objetos para o modo criação, mas criar sistemas de farm de level up é abuso da paciência do consumidor (eu me refiro as traps, que são indiscutivelmente o melhor sistema de farm de nível neste jogo). Não há muito a declarar a não ser que exige muita paciência para montar seu abrigo corretamente, mas isso é uma jogada interessante e herdada do grandioso Skyrim. Acima de tudo é muito interessante montar seu própio assentamento.

    Alguns contras:

    Design de armas limitado.
    Não achei nenhum modo de fazer uma arma realmente muito forte, como é possível em Cyberpunk 2077.
    Sistema de parceiros limita a gameplay (perk lone wanderer só funciona com o dogmeat).
    Poucos modos de farmar XP fora das DLCs.
    Plot genérico.

    Alguns (pequenos) pros:
    Ótima voz para o personagem principal (feminino).
    Dificuldade se adpta à você, e você pode adptá-la manualmente.
    Opções de diálogo fantásticas.
    OST razoável, se encaixa bem no mundo do jogo.
    Você pode correr (não é fantástico, Fallout New Vegas?)

    Fallout 4 é obrigatório!

    É muito bom, com um grande mundo aberto e imersivo a ser explorado, mas nessa versão de console acaba crashando bastante.

    Fallout 4 has a pretty good map and lots of things to do. for the 20-30 bucks you can get it for today is worth it. Far Harbor DLC is great, nuka world is okay. The game as a whole is worth every dollar.

    Very very interesting game, did not play in the past parts so the first hours are unclear, but after you can not tear yourself away from the game, it's music, the story itself, just amazing. 10/10

    Fallout 3.5 is more accurate. It's Fallout 3 with better graphics plus a poorly conceived base building addition which seems like it was cobbled on at the last minute. I completed it so must have enjoyed it but no part of the story sticks in my memory. A big disappointment.

    Fallout 4 is a deeply DEEPLY flawed game, but there is a reason I've played over 300 hours of it. Adventuring throughout the ruins of Boston is just a lot of fun. Is the main quest bad? Yes. Are the side quests bad? For the most part, yes. Is Fallout 4 a bad Fallout game? Absolutely yes. But Fallout 4 does a lot of things better then any other Fallout game.

The shooting along with weapon customization is amazing. And although building settlements is definitely not for everyone and a bit clunky, I really enjoyed trying to fit as much as I could into the small building area of the red rocket settlement. I enjoyed going out and trying to get better weapons and exploring different parts of the map. Definitely one of my favorite games but completely understand why some people don't like it. Expand

    Great game on Xbox One if you like Open World game. The only thing that bothered me a lot are ... the weapons!!!!! Damn it, it was a total disaster to find or even buy good weapons. The settlements are also kind of weird to play. A+

    I loved the addition of legendary equipment and workbenches BUT building my settlement became too large a part of the game for me. I love I finally have a reason to collect everything I come across but I hate the fact I often crawl from location to location (which is that place back to the nearest workshop)

    Horas de diversão até zerar, a parte de criação e diversidade de armas e armamentos, tudo muito bom,. Só que as historias de zeramento achei meio fracas e poucos personagens cativantes. Mas ainda sim é um excelente jogo pra quem curte a série.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Fallout 4 is a good RPG, although some yucks are way too yucky.
    The World is great, but it doesn't really feel like a Fallout game when almost everywhere there are humans. I would love to see more of a dying world, not a Fallout Renaissance.
    The main story is great. I really liked it. But I didn't really get the point of the Institute, replacing Humans with robot Humans? Yeah, doesn't really make sense. Other factions are good tho.
    The Variety of Enemies was fine, but I often just stood there and was shooting a gang of ghouls.
    The Building is good once you know how it works. There isn't a tutorial for settlement building in game in which i was incredibly disappointed and challenged.
    In Overall these issues were for me like a hair in the soup. The main problem of Fallout 4 is its almost unplayable state. On my Xbox One I experienced crashes every 2 hours.
    Verdict: 9/10 if the world wouldn't be so peaceful and it wouldn't crash every 2 hours. 7/10

    Esse jogo, ah esse jogo. Eu gostei muito desse Fallout, pela melhora no sistema de mira das armas e pela interação com todos os personagens, algo que a Bethesda sempre fez muito bem nos jogos de Fallout. Todas companhias do seu personagem tem características próprias, tem suas personalidades e histórias a serem reveladas.

    Excellent game, one of my favorites of all time. It isn't what many people wanted, but that doesn't make it a bad game in the slightest, or even a "bad fallout." The Far Harbor dlc makes it even better.

    Sometimes beautiful, a bit broken, and really quite brilliant in many places, forgiving fans will adore Fallout 4. [Christmas 2015, p.60]
  3. More Fallout 3.9 than 4, but still absolutely essential. Skyrim 2 has a hard act to follow. [Jan 2016, p.67]
