I didn't finish any of the faction questlines either except the Minutemen which was 3 quests long. It's garbage in every way, and it would take too long for me to point out every single issue I had with it. I even played Skyrim extensively despite all its flaws but this is just unplayable trash.

I find it bizarre that Beth decided to use not-Replicants and Bladerunner for the basis of FO4 while at the same time enforcing a strict 50's only rule to the setting. It just doesn't fit.

Beth absolutely hates any Fallout elements from the 80's and 90's and yet bases their entire plot and setting on these elements while erasing all other influences from these time periods because they aren't the 50's.

I keep trying to relay this game and I keep getting bored and quitting. It's so linear up until about halfway through and then you get faction quests which are just "kill the other faction."

Okay faggot. You got one set of T-45 Power Armor on a limited use Fusion Core. When the core is empty your Power Armor is done, so it's not like you're in that thing for the rest of the game anyhow.

Next, that T-45 is important to note. It's the absolute weakest of all the Power Armors (of which there are several, and that's not exclusive to FO4). Hell, even for T-45 there's the T-45b, T-45c, et cetera all the way down to f. But yours? Barely even Power Armor. You're the asshole using a copper sword while everyone else has steel. But hey, "late game armor" huh?

After the T-45 is the T-51, then the T-60 then the X-01, all with their own a-f upgrades. And even beyond that is the Legendary pieces you can find, AND upgrades on top of that. Jet Packs, Recon Sensors, Reactive Plates, Tesla Bracers, Overdrive Servos, and so on.

But you have a rusted suit of T-45a Power Armor and a half of a fusion core. "Late game armor." Ring a fucking ding ding you casual piece of shit.

Again, for people that played the previous games it's iconic late-game armor, and it's not my fault bethesda decided to create a trillion unnecessary tacticool variant for each armor


And it being late game or not is not my point, my point is that like very player that is gonna play this game they're gonna think that they were given endgame tools, which is gonna burn out the original Fallout fans, and attract pre-pubescent edgelord kids with a 2 second attention span

The game is really just not that good.
The story sucks and your choices are even worse. It gets a little better in far harbor but its still not great. The rest of the game just feels shallow to me. From the leveling system to the world design. Weapons customizations are pretty much one path and there is almost no real choice of "builds". It shows many areas of just laziness like the settlement building being broken and very limited and problems with lore.
Really the saving grace of this game is mods. People love their fucking mods and will keep playing for that reason. they were "smart" with bringing mods to consoles. The problem is that the community around console mods is absolutely terrible. But the actual of bringing mods to this series of games that people will play for years on end with mods. to consoles is a good idea and would work with better community. Now they just need to make a good game
>>
>>342728460
I don't know, I look at it this way. Dialogue in Bethesda games hasn't been worth the trouble of listening to it at all since after Oblivion. This way you can just mash X through everything instead of paying attention.

>The armor should run on that core for 200 years, not 200 seconds
Given the core is 200 years old, those 200 seconds are the end of its cycle.

>T-45 is the third strongest one in NV and 3, unlike F4 in which it's bottom tier
Which doesn't change the fact that you classified the absolute weakest unmodified piece of shit armor as "late-game." The error is yours.

>Again, for people that blah blah blah "I refuse to play the game and learn what different things mean, I just assume that the universe has not grown or changed over the decades!"
Again, that's on you.

I like the settlement aspect and with survival mode it makes it very key.

I hate the fucking stories. Many of the quests are just go here, kill this, take that which is very unrewarded.

Feels like fo3 had more overlapping quests that effected each other.

But i'm just a random guy that bought F4 after liking NV and 3, am I supposed to be an omniscient creature that knows the fulls list of everything this game is gonna offer ?


>Again, for people that blah blah blah "I refuse to play the game and learn what different things mean, I just assume that the universe has not grown or changed over the decades!"

>>
>>342734668
>If it was used, but they're all factory new looking :^)
And coming straight from 200 year old generators that depower when you take them, suggesting they were running continuously since then.

>But i'm just a random guy that bought F4 after liking NV and 3, am I supposed to be an omniscient creature that knows the fulls list of everything this game is gonna offer ?
Yes, you're supposed to play the game before denouncing it in ignorance. Honestly, who else's fault is it that not only did you not play beyond the bare minimum to find out you were wrong, you didn't even bother checking before spouting off? In what world is it Bethesda's fault that you're a faggot with no impulse control?

>That's not my point, my point is if you gonna completely change the old formula, then make it subtle and dynamic, not just throwing shit right into your face at the very beginning
So... changing the T-45 from the third weakest to the fourth is "completely changing the formula?"

The real question is why does every argument with you anti-FO4 people always end up with you spouting non-problems and stupid shit like this? "I didn't play the game so I didn't know my claims were wrong, but I see no reason to stop complaining wrongly."
>>
>>342734668
>if it was used
Not him, but the one you're talking about you find in a fucking active generator behind a locked door.

How the fuck is that not used.
>>
>>342734186
Not the guy you're talking to, but I think what he's trying to express has nothing to do with whether the power armour is late game or not, the point is, is that to the player who recognizes the armour as a late game item from the other fallout games will feel ridiculously over powered withen the first hour of playing F4 when they should feel weak and powerless, scrounging to survive in the wake of the post apocalypse.
Instead it feels like they give you one of the best gear sets in the game right from the get go.
It doesn't matter that you have 10 other sets after that that get even better, the point is that the game makes you feel powerful too early and because of that the player is left with little incentive to press forward.
>>
>>342727376
I really liked it but I seem to be the only one. Found it extremely comfy.
>>
>>342735546
How does it leave no incentive? You've gotten a small taste of the power you could have in a fully functioning power armor suit instead of the rusty piece of shit you're in.


Shouldn't that logically make you want to find the better ones?
>>
>>342735546
It might initially feel that way, yes. You suddenly have Power Armor, a minigun and you just took down a Deathclaw!

But reality sets in almost immediately afterward as you should've intuitively realized your limitations. That fight left chunks of your gear damaged and non-functioning (almost always the leg, since it was near broken at the outset). Further, your Fusion Core was barely charged before the fight and now you've only got a couple minutes left. You can't keep using the Power Armor even if you wanted to. Your minigun is virtually out of ammo and there's not anywhere nearby giving 5mm ammo in enough abundance to keep using it.

No, you got a taste of mid game. That's it. You can't sustain it, and it didn't trivialize the content going forward.

You're not alone. A good rule of thumb is that the more hate threads a game gets, the larger the silent majority on /v/ enjoys a game.

Most just don't speak up because they get drawn into stupid as fuck arguments like in this thread. "T-45 is too powerful, it broke the game!"
>>
>>342736370
That's a pretty stupid way of thinking. Did someone shit on your favorite game?
>>
>>342735820
Not for me, because that rusty piece of shit was one of the best sets of gear in literally every other fallout, and you never got it without playing for several hours.
Getting that power armour with a minigun to fight a deathclaw just felt too soon. That was stuff I was hoping to actually work for. I wanted the experience of doing everything I could to just not die for at least 10 hours, that way, when i finally get my first suit of power armour, it felt like an actual reward i worked hard for, instead of a pallet swap for 20 other sets of armour.
It just ruined the feel of power armour that I got in the other games. Feels like i should put it on and never take it off when It shoulda been one of the last things I ever saw in f4.

In every other game you kept using that armor after you got it, even in the ones where it was still pretty shitty. Hell, the T-45 in FO4 is MUCH stronger than it was in New Vegas. But in New Vegas you never had to take it off.

In Fallout 4, you shouldn't even think of Power Armor as armor. They're not built or intended to be used as such in this game. They're used in small bursts for overcoming challenges.

>Feels like i should put it on and never take it off when It shoulda been one of the last things I ever saw in f4.

See? Exactly what I'm talking about. You have this mistaken notion that you get to equip it and never remove it, and that's just not how the game works.
>>
>>342736174
I dont know, to be honest this thread kinda makes me wanna go back and try it again, but im worried ill just return to the feeling that theres no point to doing anything.
I know my character will end up as jack of all trades eventually, and the only way i can stop that is by not expierencing content which will probably break the game balance in some manner.
Knowing theres 20 different power armour types makes them seem less important or special. Makes me not care about getting them.
I don't know /v/, F4 just felt so boring.

It was balanced, not just a final tool before ragequitting and actually felt like a suit of armor, not a vehicle

>>342737331
In the other Fallouts? Yeah. But I don't blame Fallout 4 for the new direction. Turning Power Armor into a limited use vehicle is the sort of new direction and fresh take that you want your developers to be willing to try. Hit or miss, at least it was fresh.

And ultimately, I like it more this way. I like how distinct Power Armor, even the T-45 is from just heavy Combat Armor. I also like modifying it with different upgrades and paint jobs.

It's stupid, but there's something really charming about painting a Vault Blue Power Armor.

Feels a bit arbitrary to claim any one more "interesting" than the other.

A lot went wrong and very little went right. It is a travesty at every angle.

It's the same speed as you are though. Faster even with modifications like the Jetpack or Overdrive Servos installed.
>>
>>342740025
It makes you significantly slower and more sluggish. Each to their own. I suppose.
>>
>>342740237
No it doesn't. You literally move at the same speed in and out of Power Armor. You also sprint at the same speed.

I'm just waiting for the Skyrim Remastered to be released, so modders can get around to merging the games, like with Tale of Two Wastelands.

Hunting dragons with a Fat Man is gonna be fun.

Okay so no reason to wear it then.

yeah if you don't count the bonus armor, stat bonuses, and abilities it grants then sure no reason at all

Your speed is fixed from the moment you start the game.

There is no method of increasing it.

Incorrect. You even quoted a post that explained how to do it.

I am saving for a new GPU, I will wait this to go on sale with the DLC on $20 or less because higher than that is a Rip off, especially the vanilla game on its own.

So Bethesda took a look at New Vegas, and decided to go in the opposite direction, they stripped down the game off features and added crafting, and some other crap Early Access games like Rust were doing...and it paid off given the number of people who play this garbage.

That blade runner quest in FO3 was terrible, and they decided to make a full game based on it? Wew lad.

his companion quest has the most contrived writing i have ever seen in an "rpg"
>>
>>342730638
>you need creativity and the ability to roleplay.
>you have to take it all in and enjoy the journey.

That is the thing that bothers me the most.
New Vegas was immersive.
FO3 was somewhat immersive, it did feel like exploring a vast wasteland.

FO4 it is a poolry scripted story where the player is just a passenger.

Just wearing the power armor frame gives you enough strength to kill people with a tea cup, Riddick style.
>>
>>342743498
wow rude
>>
>>342743498
What about it struck you as contrived?
>>
>>342743585
No it doesn't. Melee / Unarmed damage is DM = 1 + (STR x .1). Which means that each point of Strength is +10% damage.

Power Armor is 11 Strength. That teacup will hit for TWO teacup and 10% damage.

Nah, the real damage is taking the melee and unarmed perks, both of which are in the Strength tree. And if you're using those, you probably had a good Strength anyhow. So, the upgrade in the frame is likely negligible.

Track down the code to the criminal mastermind's shelter

He states a number to the combination in each of his logs for some reason

Go to each police station and look for the evidence logs

Every police station is fully intact, all the evidence logs are available, all the evidence computers are operational, all the evidence logs are perfectly accurate

All evidence tapes have been intact for 210 years and have not budged for 210 years

Said criminal mastermind is still alive after 210 years because he is now the canon first ghoul to ever exist and became a ghoul before the Great War even occurred

Said criminal mastermind's bunker is 20 feet from where he killed not-Valentines fiance over 210 years ago

Said criminal mastermind hasn't left his bunker for 210 years

Said criminal mastermind hasn't gone feral after being isolated in a bunker for 210 years

I put about 60-65 hours into it, the last 10-15 I was kind of just roaming looking for stuff to do. It was fun at first, but after awhile it got a little bit stale. There weren't that many memorable or neat quests, all the "dungeons" feel like the same thing after you've done a few, you either get ghouls, bandits, or super mutants 99% of the time with mostly randomized loot. The writing was horrible, I ended up rushing through the main quest just to get it done with, settlement building could have been neat, but the interface was clunky and there was no real incentives. I did have fun with my melee build, though I was OP.

I guess I can see some of that, especially about Eddie Winter. I didn't really mind the tracking down the code. Doing some old fashioned sleuthing with Nick Valentine was pretty damn fun. And most of those old police stations weren't intact. The majority were husks or smoking ruins that didn't even have doors. Also, I don't mind Eddie Winter being one of the first ghouls. If anything, I was curious who his contacts were. Vault Tec? A young Richard Moreau? Either way, he wasn't the first. They already had the process down when they did it to him.

The thing as a whole was pretty good, I thought. Nick Valentine the man's unfinished business carried out by Nick Valentine the Synth and giving the latter some sense of closure and accomplishment to distinguish himself as a unique person separate from his programming. That Eddie didn't go feral seemed... inconsequential to me at the time. Hell, maybe he did go out since the bombs and he just didn't turn into the big shot he thought he was.

This the fridge boy ghoul and little lamplight are the dumbest things so far.

Vault 87/Little Lamplight is the equivalent of narrative suicide.

Goddamn FO3 had fucking awful writing.

They were too busy retconning events from the first game and throwing together the shitty settlement building system to do anything good
