>Game is advertised as an RPG
>Spend $60 on a game expecting an RPG
>turns out it was all a ruse, it's not an RPG
so with that said, couldn't someone just sue Bethesda on the grounds of false advertisment?
I mean, thats essentially whats happened here, right?
>Expecting an RPG from Beth
Kill yourself, gullible fuccboi
These days 'RPG' just mean 'you level up and and shoot things gooder'
yeah you could sue them anon. What are you waiting for? Need mommy to hold your hand like she has the last 14 years of your life?
>>318331246
only problem with that is your accuracy has nothing to do with your level or build anymore, just the gun itself.
which is a first in fallout history.
It IS an RPG, dipshit. I personally decided to role play as a retired army veteran from before the war, who is out for revenge after his wife was killed and son stolen.
>>318331028
>hating 2015 game of the year just to be contrarian
You aren't a special snowflake, shitstain.
yeah okay retard
sue bethesda
a team of lawyers against whatever jew you can whip up, and on the grounds of "muh /v/ memes"
>>318331501
>RPG means I should be able to make up my own story
>RPG doesnt mean taking the role of somebody other than yourself
the term RPG is fucking redundant in 2015. It needs to be split into like 5 clearly defined categories. Even BB is labeled as a RPG
>>318331028
All I wanted was to do a NV and kill everyone in the wasteland making me supreme ruler. Instead you get this nonsense where you have a 'conscience' and side with the best most 'helpful' faction because its right.
Even if you're playing a hopped out drug adict attacking everything on site, at the end of the day [YOU SAVE THE DAY]
Thats not roleplay, thats being forced into a tube. Pic related, it's my character
>look mah i memed again
>>318331979
Yes man ending is becoming supreme overlord you idiot.
>>318331028
You know what disappoints me the most? In the pic you can see those chains which are connected from the power armor station to the holes on the shoulder pads of that power armor. In the game there's nothing like that. In fact, power armor stations are absolutely fucking useless and you never even see the PA station lifting up certain parts of the PA when you're modifying certain parts of it. Visually it does absolutely nothing. But the PA station is the only place where PA can be customized, upgraded and repaired because the player is supposed to imagine that it's lifting up certain parts, otherwise, visually one would assume that it can be customized, upgraded and repaired anywhere. Fucking Todd.
>>318332121
He's saying you can't do that in 4, you autist.
>>318331028
>so with that said, couldn't someone just sue Bethesda on the grounds of false advertisment?
Probably not, "RPG" is an incredibly vague designation. Pretty much any game where you assume the role of a player character can be described as a role playing game.
>A role-playing game (RPG and sometimes roleplaying game]) is a game in which players assume the roles of characters in a fictional setting. Players take responsibility for acting out these roles within a narrative, either through literal acting or through a process of structured decision-making or character development. Actions taken within many games succeed or fail according to a formal system of rules and guidelines.
what do you know, fallout 4 is an rpg and you are just a rambling autist. so surprising!
>>318331028
So what's the final verdict people? If you had to choose, F4 or New Vegas?
>>318332240
>All I wanted to do in NV was... instead you got this
how did it feel to repeat a grade?
>cant just find your son
>cant unfreeze your wife and make her a synth waifu
>cant rebuild your home
why even fucking go on
>>318332121
Oh sorry I did explicitly state that
>>318332358
NV any fucking day. FO4 does have some neat quality of life improvements, such as quick looting from containers, but aside from those small things it's pretty fucking terrible, especially the entire plot and all the endings.
RPG means nothing now. Final Fantasy XIII was allegedly an RPG. So is fucking Borderlands. Even back in the day shit like Diablo got called an RPG.
>Game is advertised as an RPG
Where?
>>318331501
This game is as much an RPG as Far Cry is
>>318332358
New Vegas all the way baby.
You either got SPURS or ATOMIC
>>318331028
was it advertised as an RPG?
I see commercials for it and they don't show any gameplay. For all I know they could have been advertising it as a movie.
>>318332379
>All I wanted was to do a NV
>I wanted was to do a NV
>to do a NV
>>318331028
It's not like Bethesda intentionally went out of there way to screw up the series
they're just incompetent
>>318332547
I guess I should have included a comma hey?
>>318332358
nv has nothing on 4 aside from dialoge. 4 has better gameplay, better world, better custimization, better everything that keeps your average non autist entertained. there literally no way you could pick nv unless you are a contrarian autist
>>318332440
>>318332518
Hmm might as well pick it up while it's on sale, too bad F4 fucked up
>>318331028
The fuck is an rpg according to you? I am role playing as a stalker, I stalk wastelanders I spot wondering the common wealth and murder them once night hits.
>>318332731
fuck off normie
>>318332731
NV has way better level design. 4 levels all feel copypastaed and linear.
>>318332731
>new perk system is better than old system
>cutting youre character build options by 70% is a good thing
stick to csgo and cod faggot
>>318332731
>better custimization
You can't craft, scrap or convert ammo types.
The amount of unique weapons is much lower than NV, and that's even when including the dozens of Pipe weapons.
>better world
Walk 5 feet, see raiders, forced in to a gunfight. Walk 5 feet, see super mutants, forced in to a gunfight. Walk 5 feet, see Gunners (totally not Talon Company 2.0), forced in to a gunfight. That's the entire fucking Boston CBD. NV had a far better world.
>>318333045
i dont like any of those game autist
>>318331468
Acc is PER, damage is tied to several perks.
>>318333173
>Acc is PER
Only in VATS
>>318331028
I bought this last night while I was really drunk. I thought it would be cool to play since I've never played Fallout but I just want to play Monster Hunter instead.
>>318333132
>nv has abetter world
>walk 5 feet, forced to kill geckos, walk 50 feet through empty ugly desert, pass though location youve already been to 30 times and realize the world is shit and the game relies solely on dialogue and story, wich is shit
>>318333351
>illiterate shitposter in charge of dialogue and story
>>318332358
4 because its more fun. The gameplay is far better in 4 and the story of 4 isn't that bad besides endings, which can be easily changed if thats necessary unlike gameplay.
>>318333409
>cant refute his point so ill ad hom
nice one m8, its also pretty ironic you dont know what the word illiterate means
>>318333270
Yeah. I just said acc was tied to PER.
>>318331028
> A role-playing game (RPG) is a game in which players assume the roles of characters in a fictional setting.
Fallout 4 is literally an RPG.
>>318333685
you assume the role of master chief in Halo, does that mean that Halo is an RPG?
>>318333685
you do realize these people are literally autistic and alter definitions to suit what they want and will call you a "normie" if you point it out
>>318333685
>fully voiced character with a pre-determined backstory
>role-playing
try again anon
>>318333612
>doesn't know what an ad hominem is, uses the word anyway

>>318333685
Every video game ever must be an RPG then
56 hours into the game and i just killed the courser
>>318333794
he didn't post the full definition but fallout 4 still fits it. it is an rpg, you being a contrarian autist who just wants to hate it because it makes you feel supuriour does not change that
>>318333915
>still cant refute my point
>still ad homing
i cant wait to see what autistic drivel you post next hahaha jesus christ
>>318333976
i played 200+ hours and havent done much of the main story at all and dont even know who the courser is
i just keep replaying the beginning hoping to get the gameplay loop perfect with mods and building the right character progression
>>318333976
1d 07h in
Just started quest to go look for the missing detective.
>>318334059
i never once said that fallout 4 is a bad game, just a bad rpg, i'm still playing it and enjoying it.
but please continue to make generalizations if it makes you feel good.
>>318334243
13 hours in, and going to do the same thing. I'll probably get distracted on the way there and clear out more areas.
>>318333134
what games fallout games?
I can tell
>>318334384
what are you even going on about? the post i replied to was obviously challenging the idea that fallout 4 is an rpg
>Game has gear acquisition
>Game has skill acquisition
>Game has stats and attributes.
>Gameplay changes based on what perks your spec into
>Somehow this isn't an RPG
I've never seen anything as fluid as /v/ definition of what makes a game an RPG
>>318334395
4 hours in, still pre-war creating my character's face.
>>318334429
the only games that were mentioned in the post my illiterate friend
oh wait, you probably knew that and were just pretending to be retarded
>>318333883
> Final Fantasy
> The Witcher
> Mass Effect
> Literally dozens of other mainstream AAA RPG franchises with fully-voiced characters that also happen to have a predetermined backstory
Never change, /v/.
>>318331028
>you play a role in a game
>it's not an rpg
>>318334601
fallout 4 is for normies therefore it isnt an rpg
welcome to /v/
>>318334601
Kek. This is the truest post in this thread.
Please help
the only thing that happened is that health is lower now, and you can't buff your combat skills to max early on
so you have to play a medium range game with rifles instead of close range VATS everything
its not like its more or less RPG as a result, FO3 was never complex or particularly well written, as /v/ reminded me about 1000 times
>>318334945
Nice toaster
>>318334710
>pretending to be retarded
is that what you do when you have no rebuttal to my argument and trail off into obscurity?
>>318335078
But I'm running the game fine maxed out
>>318335346
At no point in this thread have you ever presented a logically coherent argument. Random, unbuttressed opinions aren't arguments.
>>318335346
you didnt have a point
>>318331028
What is the definition of an RPG?
>>318335346
>still ignoring the fact that you had to ask "what games", which means at least one of two things, that you are literally fucking retarded and cant read or youre just pretending to be retarded because you are autistic
>>318334601
By that logic CoD is a RPG
>>318335680
Who are you quoting?
you Played the Role of protagonist in the Game
>>318335509
but I only posted 2 times ITT faggot the one you replied to and here>>318333045
just because other people are calling you out on your shit doesnt mean /v/ is one person
>>318331028
This is like the third time I've seen this thread.
Go ahead and riddle me this OP. What's an rpg?
>>318336080
>still not answering the question
which one is it anon?
>Want to side with the Railroad for the ending
>Don't realise that I'm already really close to the end
>Inadvertently end up siding with the Minutemen
Th-thanks Bethesda...
You can roleplay. You can either spend your time as a serious ex military man looking for his son or as a snarky sarcastic ex military called Seamus McFuckyourself that's looking for his son.
>>318336261
>an rpg
>an roleplaying hame
>>318336502
im 100% sure you get a warning before you get to the point of no return with a faction
>>318336314
I'm not the person you were responding to. I was referring to your misuse of greentext; you're not quoting anyone.
>>318336654
>a autism
if its not an rpg, what is it then?
>>318336714
I think that I may have done, but that would have been some 30 hours of gameplay earlier..
Is any JRPG an RPG?
>>318336805
epic meme, i bet youre an oldfag whos been here since 08 right
