My question is, can FO4 be satisfactorily played in TPS mode, and can one play FO4 as their first FO experience?

My one attempt at a Bethesda game was Oblivion and I dislike FP perspective in any/all games and the TP perspective was rubbish. So I didn't enjoy the experience at all and gave it away after about 8 hours of trying to get into the gameplay.

To the first question, probably.  Skyrim has a good third person mode.  Not super, but good.  And they've been pushing third person for a while.  The second question, yes.  That's just how Bethesda does things.  Fallout 4 will be a freestanding experience.

 

If you can get it on PC, give Skyrim a shot.  Pick it up for cheap on a Steam Sale.  It will probably be more to your liking than Oblivion.
