1-2 were the better of the series, though I enjoyed my time with 3-NV, 4 feels like it's trying to be a pure shooter but at the same time strapping itself to the clunky Gamebryo engine as well as some leftover RPG elements. Bethesda should have just made a spinoff Fallout series that has a focus on action/shooting with the main series keeping a focus on pure RPG elements, they could have even gone back to making the main series in the same style as 1-2, I would have loved that.
Also the settlement building option combined with how clunky it works along with AI that acts as dumb and lifeless as bricks really didn't make for a good idea to toss into the game. It would have worked much better if the game were more RPG like along with AI that made use and reacted to what you had built rather than snapping itself to a chair and going with the usual eating/drinking animation, walking around and then sitting on a chair, rinse and repeat. Seeing AI function like that gets really stale with Bethesda games.
Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
