The only game I've not played is Fallout 76, but, and yes I know I'm a heathen for this... my favourite is by far Fallout 4, the gameplay was just so much more fun for me and I enjoyed how stupidly overpowered the weapon mods and perks made me, lol. Also the whole building thing, I didn't think I'd be into it, but I spent WAY too much time building my own little settlement, although having strangers sleeping in MY bed was just... GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY BED YOU RADIATED CUNT!

I loved Fallout 3 and New Vegas but Fallout 4 trumps them both as by far my favorite Fallout game. 

I doubted myself with that at first and was kind of determined to believe that New Vegas was better but then, still wanting a Fallout fix after beating Fallout 4, I went back and played New Vegas and--yeah, that was nostalgia talking.  After beating New Vegas again, I went back to play Fallout 4 again because it's just better in so many ways.  There are a few areas where I give New Vegas the win but, honestly, most of them are very minor.  

One of the things I hear a lot is that "New Vegas is better at being an RPG."  I don't think I can disagree with that any more strongly.  The settlement building in Fallout 4 puts it way beyond what New Vegas offers as an RPG.  No, I'm not talking about extra dialogue checks, or dice rolls, or dressing up in different outfits constantly.  I'm talking about the freedom to be creative and reshape the world to your liking.  New Vegas is a largely linear game that has the old "rpg" trappings but once you reach the ending, that's it.  In Fallout 4, the main story is just a starting point.
