OBSIDIAN'S FENSTERMAKER: "I'M ALWAYS UP FOR WORKING ON A FALLOUT"

http://www.pcgamer.com/obsidians-fenstermaker-im-always-up-for-working-on-a-fallout/

I was a little down on Fallout 4, not because it's a bad game but because it's not a roleplay game anymore, at least, not if you want to roleplay anyone other than sarcastic guy, wide-eyed softy or unprovoked dickhead. Obsidian's Fallout: New Vegas beefed up Fallout 3's weaker RPG systems to the delight of many, and designer Eric Fenstermaker has revealed that the team would like to do it all again.

>>What do you think, Fallout fans, would you like another Fallout by Obsidian?

I really hope Obsidian gets a chance at fixing Fallout (again) - FO4 is not a bad game per se, but it's a terrible, terrible Fallout.

 

Fallout 4 is more shooter than RPG, right? At least that's what I've heard.

It's FPS-RPG...but you'll spend most of the time shooting stuff (mostly Raiders) with standard FPS mechanisms that are not influenced very much by (non-existing) skills. Other aspects of RPG are terribly watered down and while it still has some things that keeps it away (so far) from ending up in the same basket with the likes of FarCry 3/4, it's far from proper RPGs that FO1/2 were or even botched attempt that FO3 was.

It's not unfun game to play, especially if you accept that it's not actually proper Fallout, but if you're long time fan chances are you'll be dissapointed in direction Bethesda is heading with it.

For comparison, as I'm not a FallOut fan, FO 4 is like Mass Effect 2 or worse?
