So did it win a SINGLE GOTY award?
Will Todd learn his lesson pandering too much to casuals ?
I wonder if they'll try to revert some of their casualization decisions in the upcoming DLC.
>>321392492
>recordshattering sales numbers
>OP thinks bethjews give a shit about awards
>>321392492
Bethesda doesn't care about making good games, they care about making money. And that's what they did. They made all the right decisions.
>>321392492
Why would they care about awards when it's selling faster than both 3 and NV? It's funny seeing /v/ act as if the game was a failure when reality suggests otherwise. Delusional fucks, the lot of you.
>>321392941
>critical failures can't exist
wow /v/ so smart and worldly wise knowing business likes money so mature
>>321392649
>completely fell off the face of the Earth 2 weeks after release
>no new memes or anything which can say a lot about a game's popularity
>5.4 user score on Metacritic
Even normies can be smart enough to know when they got memed
I'd like to hope it's over for Todd, but the game still sold. The only way to prevent this is to spread the word out farther that this game was a massive disappointment.
Everyone in this thread, please let it be known amongst your friends and coworkers, this game needs to be publicly trashed if we want Bethesda to ever improve.
>>321393060
As long as beth got their money, they're happy
>>321392941
Sales will be lower if the public is informed that this game was shit, they can't keep pulling the same tricks and expect the same result.
>>321392941
SHIT IS GOOD, MILLIONS OF FLIES CAN'T BE WRONG
>>321393121
They won't be happy with the next game they release, though.
Even though a lot of people now know that Skyrim is as wide as an ocean but as deep as a puddle, it still got a lot of mileage in normie vidya culture for years. Fallout 4 just completely fell off the radar.
I'm hoping that with whatever game Bethesda releases next the public remembers how they got burned on Fallout 4.
>>321392492
Nope
But if you think awards and reception mean shit, I guess Her Story is the true GOTY, and Undertale is literally the best PC game of all time
>>321393362
Undertale is definitely better than Fallout 4, though.
>>321392941
>Gaming audience is three times as active since predecessor.
>Game sells twice as much as predecessor
>Game is huge success
Fucking Nintendo sales are more impressive.
>>321393474
Drinking rancid milk is better than fallout 4 anon, not exactly a difficult thing to beat.
>>321392492
>pandering to casuals
what?
Fo1/2 was 'casual' yet nobody cared, and so was (really good) New Vegas. Problem is not some hurr durr lack of hardcore gaymenk, problem is completely ignored "RPG" elements - lack of proper story, lack of anyhow developed world with good quests.
>>321393121
>As long as beth got their money
Beth games are expected to sell like hotcakes for years.
Just because it sold a bunch of copies due to pre-release hype doesn't mean shit if it stopped selling already.
>>321393060
>>321393353
Obsidiots review bombed Skyrim when it came out too. It had like a 4.5 userscore for a few months, but the game still sold many millions of copies just like Fallout 4 is. Keep being mad though, your tears make Todd Howard stronger.
>>321394804
Why is fucking nobody talking about Fallout 4, then?
>>321394852
Because normies don't give a shit about a single vidya for that long.
And normies is the target audience of bethtesda .
You're fucking retarded though if you think it didn't sell well, and even more retarded if you think the DLCs and Skyrim 2 won't sell like hotcake as well.
>>321394852
Because this is /v/, and we are full of contrarian Obsidiots who only want to talk about New Vegas.
>>321395312
Explain why Skyrim was relevant for years afterward, then.
>>321394852
still the most played game on steam after dota 2 and csgo, you autistic dweeb
>>321392492
And awards matter why exactly?
I'm honestly surprised by how much I enjoy it. And the last Fallout game I really liked was 2.
>>321395369
Different guy, but probably because Nevah been don bfor. Fallout 3 was talked about for a long while, still kind of niche "kind of" because no one knew what the series was except the people who played the first ones. Then Skyrim came out with swords and magic n' shit and it was streamlined. No prerequisites. You could have played NBA 2k whatever your whole life and never cared a bit about TES and picked up Skyrim and had fun. Fallout 4 comes out, failed to live up to the hype and honestly felt like skyrim 2 electric boogaloo with guns, but somehow less gripping than Skyrim was. That being said, I still had fun with it, pissed that they didn't incorporate some NV things in, but whatever. Heres hoping DLC improves it.
>>321392492
>in the same year as Witcher 3
>MGS5
Not a chance.
>>321394852
Everyone I know won't shut up about it
>>321392492
who gives a shit if it got any goty awards you stupid shit all that matters is silver shroud questline which is the best thing the gaming industry has seen stop being a sweaty loser and embrace FO4 for what it is
the best game in lifes
>>321392492
why would you even ask, are you retarded ?
Protip: it isGOTY
>>321395707
>i am a fucking moron who likes dick and getting ugly prefab shit handed to me because i'm too retarded to make my own story, i'm also too young to use this site
I love dick
FTFY SENPAI
>>321392492
No it was beaten out by a ragtag crew of Slavs, a furry, and a gook without a job.
before fallout 4 all bethdrones were deluding themselves into thinking fo4 would sweep the GOTY games because bethesda's releases ALWAYS sweep the awards
and now witcher 3 has swept them all instead. bethesda better take a hint
>>321394804
>Obsidiots
Worse, RPGcodexers.
Racist, sexist shitlords, all of them, reposting Wyatt Mann "creations" over and over...
>>321396743
This is not a : how i was conceived- story time senpai
>>321396771
witcher 3 is shit combat sucks quests suck graphics suck do i need to go on bb ? just get that dick out of your anus please =3
>>321396846
aren't you happy bethesda finally has some competition?
maybe there games won't be so shit anymore
>>321394804

>i-it must be obsidiots!
>>321392492
>Will Todd learn his lesson pandering too much to casuals ?
Do you honestly think he cares about GOTY awards? They outsold fucking Star Wars.
Although I do think the next iteration will have a different dialogue system because of the backlash.
Can't believe I wasted SIXTY FUCKING BUCKS on this. After about 50 hours I couldn't keep playing this pathetic borefest. Why, oh why did I have to pre-purchase it? Fuck me.
>>321396789
>Racist, sexist shitlords, all of them, reposting Wyatt Mann "creations" over and over...
So?
>>321397336
>50 hours
>>321399035
What? Is it too much or too little?
>>321392492
What lesson?
That pandering too much to casuals = MILLIONS of sales?
Because I am pretty sure he learned that lessson way earlier
>>321399154
They're implying that it's unbelievable that somebody would play a game they find boring for 50 hours.
>>321399154
You should have broken the disk in less than an hour.

What's the problem here?
>>321401762
>>321401762
The options you're given in that pic are too few.
If this was a Black Isle/Obsidian Fallout, then you would have some option that allowed you to play multiple sides provided you meet certain conditions.
>>321401881
That doesn't answer my question.
>>321401952
Post yfw you didn't preorder.
>>321392492
HOW ARE THEY GONNA MAKE A GOTY EDITION IF IT DIDNT WIN A SINGLE AWARD?
>>321402027
>>321401929
Just like how you can make peace between House and the BoS in NV if you pass some speech checks, right?
>>321392492
I don't know how you faggots do it. My gf has been playing it and its the most boring shit I've ever watched. So I decided to play it myself when she was sleeping. I played maybe 2 hours. Everything is so slow going. Everything is drab and boring. The voice acting is terrible.
I don't like anything about the game, nothing. More power to you guys, I'm glad y'all enjoy it at least.
>play game for 50+ hours waiting for it to get good
>"wow you played it for ages! you must've liked it!"
>play game for an hour and quit because it's shit
>"b-but anon, you barely played it! how can you form a proper opinion on it?"
this logic is fucking dumb and is generally the go to response to any criticism levelled against Bethesda. like if i read a book and at the end think it was a dog turd surely my opinion is more valid than had i dropped the book before i finished the first page.
>>321402407
10-15 hours is the proper time. You are a retarded banana.
>>321401929
Have you played PoE?
Obsidian didn't do much better.
Lots of choices that lead to the same result.
>>321402526

Back to Tumblr with you.
>>321392492
sound familiar?
>>321403640
I thought about getting this mod but seeing how the options are like this I think I'll stick to the illusion of choice.
>>321392492
TFW you didn't buy this shit game
>>321394852
Maybe because they're too busy playing instead of shitposting on this board, you dumb weeb poster.
>>321392742
>They made all the right decisions.
i planned on buying after launch, all this poor game development lost them a purchase from me and probably many others. and we're all weary of whatever game they release next.
>>321392492
>Will Todd learn his lesson pandering too much to casuals ?
>>321404251
>bought this game fully expecting it to be a shallow piece of shit
>it's a shallow piece of shit
Bethesda has me by the balls. At least some good mods will be coming out for it right?
Post-Apocalyptic Settlement Simulator 2015 was a commercial and critical success.
GOTY awards exit only for GOTY editions.
>>321392492
Guys.. what did you do when you finally found Father?
first thing i did was save the game just to shoot his face without consequences. Just wanted to know if someone else did this, shoot him before he even explains himself.i didn't feel bad after finding out he is my son. Actually, i shot him again for being a shitty person.
>>321404492
oops wrong one
>>321401997
you can just shoot people to the face if you don't want that method, or tell them from the get go that you will not help.
>>321404695
Iwatched the endings on youtube and didn't waste $60 like a fucking idiot
>nothing in the way of tutorials
>game literally points to what you have to do
>companions less than helpful
>they're fucking immortal and a dog can carry half your stash
>not great for new players
>game forcefeeds you guns, armor, stimpacks
>walk towards quest marker and shoot baddies in your way is the entire extent of the game
What do these normies want? REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>321392492
The overzealous blacksmith will never stop
>>321403916
those are not plot holes at all.
They made a shitload of money so I doubt they learned anything
>>321396789
Wtf is a rpg code xers
>>321392492
>So did it win a SINGLE GOTY award?
Most AAA games 'win' a GOTY award from either a big event or just some magazine so can put out a GOTY edition without it being a total lie. How do you not know this?
>>321404434
>cost them 5 sales
>gained them millions
You're such an important demographic.
Fallout 4 is Bethesda's Dragon Age 2.
Fucking love how badly Todd got shit on this year. Worst reception of a Bethseda game yet.
What are you going to call the definitive edition you fucking piece of trash?
>>321392492
It really needed another year, minimum.
I'm convinced it was rushed to release after TESO bombed. Didn't enjoy it and wish I could refund it.
>>321393182
oh come on, I dislike fallout 4 aswell, but using that as an example is just stupid.
>>321405330
>So please tell me again senpai how is this beth competition
>far better writing
>far better worldbuilding and consistency
>far better character development
>far better plot
>better RPG elements
>dialogue options that aren't a fucking wheel
>better music

>better quests
Nah, go shitpost elsewhere Bethesdrone
>>321405910
Why on earth did you respond?
Everyone with a brain know Bethesda is on the ass end of Western gaming these days

Bethesda literally, figuratively, and metaphorically went from:
"Have you seen my dad? Middle aged guy?"
to
"Have you seen my son? Baby aged guy?"
>>321392492
>>321392492
The game didn't suck because it pandered to casuals, it fucking sucked because it was lazily developed and was full of fucking bugs that ruined gameplay. Its two thousand fucking fifteen, why is this is even allowed?
