I really liked Fallout 4. But I also played more recently and enjoyed it for what it was. I notice the people that hate on it the most had a very specific expectation for the game. And when it didnt hit that they wrote it off as horrible. Thats their prerogative but that group became a vocal minority. Most of them won't admit it, but too many people went into Fallout 4 expecting it to hold a candle to New Vegas. My expectations were a little more realistic: in my book, all it had to do was improve upon the aspects of Fallout 3 that pissed me off the most, and make settlement-building fun; for my tastes, it succeeded on both fronts (not every change they made was a good one obviously, but contrary to the usual Bethesda MO, they actually took more steps forward overall than they took steps back). --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. |

Skyrim: fuck no. I will never waste another hour on the drab, shallow, ugly-ass vanilla version of this game. Fallout 4: surprisingly, yes. In fact, I recently made it about halfway through an unmodded playthrough on Xbox to see if that would improve the game's piss-poor stability (It didn't), and apart from the crashing, I still had fun. Vanilla combat is enjoyable, the DLCs never really disappointed me the way Skyrim's did, and the DLCs + Creations give enough new options beyond crap shacks and Minecraft blocks to keep settlement-building fun. --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. |

The protagonist voiced dialogue just brings down this whole quest for me. It would have been funnier if he tried sounding like the silver shroud instead of saying it all sarcastically Sounds like yet another instance where the female MC VA is superior to the male: she brings just the right amount of tryhard goofiness. And like I've said in past topics, one of my favorite things to do is punk Sinjin's lackeys into running away scared by having her calmly say in her normal voice 'I'm going to wipe out every last person who points a gun at me' after talking like a cartoon character for the entire rest of the quest. ANort posted... The fact that you couldn't stay in the Silver Shroud persona the rest of the game was a real letdown. Yeah, that would've been nice. They at least throw you a few bones here and there; if you're wearing the outfit you can speak as the Shroud when confronting the Mechanist at the end of the Automatron questline. There's also a random encounter with a dude who thinks he's Manta-Man, and you can greet him as the Shroud as well (too bad FO4's random encounters are terribly unreliable). --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. |

I don't recall a single interesting quest. Except maybe the pirate robots. Apart from 'Last Voyage of the USS Constitution' (which I agree is the game's standout sidequest), I had a lot of fun with 'The Silver Shroud.' For as much as people praised FO3's 'The Superhuman Gambit' quest, it was way more fun being the looney wannabe superhero than just dealing with them. 'Confidence Man' is another good one; more involved than your standard 'go to place kill guys' quest, and changing the game's radio DJ's personality by boosting his self-esteem is a neat mechanic (even if Nervous Travis is vastly superior to Confident Travis entertainment-wise). I'm also personally fond of Curie's questline. The Vaults in FO4 suuuuuuuuuck on average, but Vault 81 is at least half-decent.
