Is it THAT good?
It's mediocre.
Not a single person, that played Fallout4 with having played any previous titles, has said that.
Anybody that actually enjoys this piece of shit knowing how terrible it is should fucking off themselves
I'm pretty sure there are thousands of normies that do. And really, they're what matter.
Hey Fallout, where do you put your awards?
Oh sorry!
>>321199941
worst fallout game in the main series
It's pretty much the normie GOTY for every redditor to cosplay, draw fanart, and other fallout related shit.
pretty mediocre.
bethesda games get boring about a half hour in.
It's fucking terrible and i'm not even joking
you must be either underaged or american to even slightly enjoy this poor excuse of a rpg game
Pope Francisco probably likes Football games, since he is argentinian.
Not as bad as /v/ says it is, not as good as mainstream media says it is.
Its a solid 7. Its definitely not worth full price though, i'd just wait for the GOTY version with all the DLC.
>>321199941
wont last long like that
lost too many loved ones
>>321199941
Better than fo3.
Fallout 2 > Fallout > New Vegas > Tactics > 4 > 3 > BoS
>>321199941
Bigger disappointment than MGSV
6/10: The Game
>>321201415
But people were expecting mediocrity with Fallout 4 from day one.
MGSV was hyped to the moon and back for years.
>>321201187
fallout 4 is outdated in every single way and have terrible gameplay
>solid 7
fucking shill
>>321200870
I wonder why it is that Europeans are so assmad at americans for everything, it's pretty funny.
>>321201518
>give a game an average, regular ass score
>fucking shill
It's good as an open world game. Mediocre as an rpg.
>>321201559
bethesda knows their target audience very well
not even rude or anything, just posting facts
why are you mad about this?
>>321201704
7 is a good score you idiot, 5 is avarage
>>321199941
No. Its bad, bland, and kicks you out of the mood every now and then.
Casuals have access to the internet. Are easily impressed. Use paint or cracked photoshop to make shitty jokes on the internet.
Do not be deceived.
>>321199941
>not a single award from anyone
Did Bethesda over-calculate by aiming their release this close to end of the year but not considering they might be other contenders, or is Fallout 4 really THAT bad?
>>321201902
>5 is average
In what world do you live in where game reviewers think 5 is average.
It is the GOTY and whoever says otherwise doesnt have taste.
Played all the major games of the year except for Just Cause 2 and Fallout 4 is still the one I played for 200h and still having fun with it.
>>321201975
the one where half is actually average, this isn't fucking ign forums faggot.
>>321201975
When I give games arbitrary number scores I make sure 5 is average, 10 is impossible, and 1 is impossible.
If you are capable of looking past cheap thrills and accepting things past face values, you'll understand how empty and boring the game is.
If you are one of those retards who likes to turn off their brain and play mindless fun for a few hours than boy is it the game for you.
If you're looking for any of the following:
Depth
Mechanics
Varied Gameplay
Story
Find another game.
Its sad how my post can be ripped and applied to so many games these days.
fallout was never good
>>321200054
Why would they say "Is it THAT good?" if they already played it? They would know the answer
>>321201975
>game reviewers
I don't give a single fuck about game reviewers
long time ago, before you were born 5 was a avarage score and 7 was 2 points beyond average
it's called basic logic
>>321202135
Well no major game reviewer does.
>>321202134
5 being average hasn't been the case for years and possibly two generations. Scores have been inflated for years.
>>321199941
It's not even good
>>321199941
If you consecrate a copy of Fallout 4 and it becomes the Body and Blood of Christ, would that make it a better game?
>>321199941
even if your only other Fallout game was 3 you wouldn't have said that.
>>321202239
>long time ago, before you were born 5 was a avarage score and 7 was 2 points beyond average
Well that hasn't been the case for over a decade.
Sorry grandpa. Go cry about millennials some more.
>>321202134
show me 3 review websites where 5 actually means average and not shit.
>>321200372
Not really valid criticism seeing how BB didn't win shit when it totally deserved to

>Not as bad as /v/ says it is, not as good as mainstream media says it is.

/v/ overreacts about everything and everyone.
Never take any general opinion on this board at face value since the majority is almost always wrong.
>>321199941
It's unabashedly mediocre. Totally throws away the RPG aspects of the previous games, even moreso than Fallout 3. Mods are the only thing that will possibly save it by re-introducing these mechanics. Glad I pirated and didn't buy.
Everything that is mediocre or poorly done in new vegas is done very well in Fo4
(combat, interior design, exploring, unique looking locations)
Everything that is done very well in new vegas is done very poorly in Fo4
(world building, story, dialogue, sense of survival)
I feel like I fucked up, I bought this for someone who liked the other games and theyre probably going to think it an insult buying them this version too. Is it really that bad? I mean, not even in relation to Fallout, how is it as a game in and of itself?
What should weigh on a rating of a game aiming to be a game:
1. Performance and bugs
2. Gameplay
3. Music/sound design
4. Setting/scenario/story
5. GRAF-X
>>321202660
>combat
>done very well
please guys start posting some webms
>>321202612
Unless you only and only take notes on the shitposting and major overreaction threads this is simply not true.
also

nice umbrella term nignog
>>321202772
this, post some cherrypicked webms because I can't come up with a decent original comment
>>321202767
Gamespot did that for years and even had a system set up for it and it always made the score 7-8 and inflated everything.
>>321200054
i say that and i mean it
>>321202772
it's still a massive improvement over new vegas
>>321202660
>>321202772
shooting is better in fallout 4 but melee combat is fucking garbage and there are no spears.
weapon bashing is a decent feature but no dedicated explosives button or explosives in VATS is a shitty deal.
one might argue that the instakill animations of melee is better than the depth of FNV but they would have to be a retarded casual.
>>321201559
Nice damage control Bubba. Don't you have some roadkill to marinate for Christmas lunch?
>>321202847
no need for cherrypicking in f4 case friendo
I had one guy tell me that ammo types were only in 1 game before and that it shouldn't matter that they are gone.
Also he told me ammo crafting was only in nv when it was also kind of in 3 with the pitt addon.
>>321200372
I'm a diehard Fallout fan and I was praying for Fallout 4 not to win any awards.
That abortion of the series deserves nothing for amputating the best parts of the franchise in the name of appealing to wider audiences.
Fuck Bethesda.
>>321202239
6 seems more like average, 5 is more like its technically a game that when you turn it on you can play it. 4 is more when you turn the game on you kinda wonder why you did. 3 being like apparently this controller that Im holding makes something tangible happen on the screen, but that's about it. 2 is what the fuck did they even make and 1 is straight coded garbage where you see a game on screen but it doesn't actually mean anything
I am not one of these faggots that play the game for 1000h and talk shit about it on /v/ to fit in, so I will say that I enjoyed ever minute of the game.
Does it have the best plot ever? No.
Is it bug free? No.
Could it have been way better? Of course.
I will even admit that I don't think Bethesda worked for 7 years in this game, or if they did they really should fire most of their staff members.
BUT the final product is still fun and addicting, especially if you are a fan of open world games with freedom to do whatever you want.
>>321203190
>freedom to do whatever you want.
I want to complete game without killing anyone
can i?
>>321203190
I want to play the game without looking for my son
can I?
Its rather amazing that noone is talking about it. Such a big title just thrown to the wayside. Was it really that bad? It doesnt look like how id expect a fallout game to playit actually looks more fun, theres actualy combat instead of VATS everything
>>321199941
No. easy answer dipshit
Borderlands (2) will always be better
>>321203190
I want to kill chilldren
can i?
>>321203345
Why the hell would you want that?
>>321203842
why not? it's a rpg game right? why the hell would you want just kill everything in a rpg game?
>>321203345
>I want to play the game in this boring way
Okay then.
>>321202457
Souls games never have and never will win big awards, unless they make big changes in stile.
These games offer little variation in what you do and have almost no story. Most critics don't really get them and that's why, no mater how much praise they receive, they will never win.
Okay, I'm just gonna avoid this tittle for a while.
>>321204030
>its a rpg game
>therefore you shouldnt need to kill anyone
In what other rpg can you finish without killing a single enemy?
You better not say New Vegas.
>>321204114
>killing everything for no reason is a pinnacle of rpg experience
oken then
>>321203481
people talked about it when it came out dumbass
and the combat is 60% using VATS
>>321199941
>>321204365
>In what other rpg can you finish without killing a single enemy?
fallout and fallout 2(technically)
it's about having options you retard
enjoy your two totally different endings
>>321202867
why?
>>321202997
Ill throw you upboats for such an ebic response
DON'T SAY FALLOUT
I SWEAR TO GOD
>>321202457
It totally didnt
It's a good game but essentially just a reskin of DS, what did you expect
>>321204870
fallout
>>321204520
If you took 2 seconds to read those user reviews you wouldn't be posting that image.
it's shit, i mean i'm pretty sure at this point bethesda only spend 2 months in development. everything sucks except for some combat moments
>>321200651
>le normies like it therefore it's shit meme
Fuck off.
>>321204520
Man, even Fallout 3 did better? I mean, sure, the gameplay is solid, but the story is shit. I had figured Fallout 4 would be Bethesda's opportunity to learn from its mistakes. Damn.
>>321202117
Have you played fallout 1/2/nv? I don't think so faggot.
I got it yesterday even though it didn't go on sale on Steam.
It's acceptable.
Not a very good rpg, or Fallout game, but it's acceptable.
>>321201559
because americans are clinically proven to be fucking retarded.
>>321205254
I don't give a shit about normies and I still thought the game was shit.
You fuck off.
>>321205450
bro NV is shit, it's like a fucking themepark pushing you in the right direction, in the beginning, if you go anywhere but south, you're fucked. Deathclaws north, fucking fly motherfuckers to the east, no matter what you're fuckd
>>321199941
>Epic nerd community blindly over-praising the game because of "m-muh Fallout!! EPIC BRO! XD"
>>321199941
In all honesty it's 8/10 at very least
>>321205810
>bro NV is shit, it's like a fucking themepark pushing you in the right direction, in the beginning
Oh, shit! I didn't know that!
>if you go anywhere but south, you're fucked. Deathclaws north, fucking fly motherfuckers to the east, no matter what you're fuckd
CASUAL.
Guess so
It's the sequel to Fallout 3. If you enjoyed that, you'll enjoy 4.
I just seem them as different games than 1/2.
>>321205810
Goodsprings has like 2 Stealth Boys that you can use to go the past the Deathclaws in Quarry Junction
>>321199941
Not at all.
But it's fun.And isn't that what really counts?
>>321199941
Mediocre at best. Got bored after about 25 hours. Story is garbage graphics are terrible and it has some performance issues im guessing it was never meant to be played over 30 fps.
>>321204943
Game is shit, deal with it faggot.
>>321202618
Every part of the story and characters lacks substance. It's great if you like shooting things and touting power armor.
>>321203190
Freedom to do what? Join the Brotherhood, the Railroad and the Institute and then choose one between them all at the end, where two of those options lead to the destruction of the Institute. There is no real freedom.
>>321206954
No
The worst part is GECK is not even out and modders already made settlement building so much better already. Too bad the frame rate goes to complete shit if you tried to building anything big.
It feels too similair to fallout 3, not worth the full price t.bh
>>321203190
>the final product is still fun and addicting
it must be nice to have such shit standards
>>321202135
>10 is impossible, and 1 is impossible.
So you really have a 1-8 scale.
That's dumb, 0 and 11 should be impossible.
>>321201820

How did yall niggas prove his point so easily?
>>321204214
It was a pipe dream to expect Bloodborne to win GOTY, even though it definitely deserved it.
However, it's total fucking bullshit that it didn't win Best Art Direction.
>>321202502
Potion seller....
>>321199941
Fallout 4 is a meme game
its probably gotten more shit than any other Bethesda game but you'll still see tons of people praising all the shitty flaws of it
