General Thoughts on Fallout 4:

Played it for a couple of hours where i have been basically exploring,ignoring currently the main missions due to nostalgia. Introduction was fantastic and climatic, (haven't seen it before in its entirety) and i was eager to start.

Gameplay feels great and expected from a BETHESDA game, vats is smoother then fallout 3 which is a big plus and the soundtrack is awesome. Miscellaneous quests at the moment are intriguing and so much loot is to be found!!!

On a technical level it does halt a bit frame rate wise but it doesn't negatively affect the game. I have only encountered one glitch or bug during my first couple of hours at the start where as i was leaving the vault it warped me back to the start.

Difficulty wise i haven't really been challenged. I am only level 5 with my trusty 10mm pistol but no enemies presently pose a threat. Probably because i know what to expect from a fallout game ahah. The world map seems huge and new enemies are a welcomed addition.

Fallout 4 at the moment is living up to my hype at least :)

Surprisingly it only took Tomb Raider a couple of hours to fully download. Could've played it while it was but since i had work didn't want to dive into a new game. It took Halo probably about 16hrs to download. I couldn't play at midnight.



According to all i have seen today, ROTR is selling good.
Nothing exceptional but is selling good. Anyone have anything to repory about the game launch?
(Off-topic)
I'm super curious to know about the launch today of the Steam Machines. You people from US have any store selling they already? Any of you have tested it?

Voting for this weekends Halo 5 playlist is up: https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/weekend-playlist-poll-11-10-15

Looks like Doubles is going to win.


Why don't they cut this bullshit out and put what was popular from H3, 4 and MCC permanent? This is ridiculous

I'm enjoying Fallout 4 so far. Might just beat Witcher 3 to become my GOTY.


Shik you have TR right? 



Fallout does get a lot of hate on Metacritic and even Steam. Didn't play the game yet so I was really surprised about that but considering that most complain about a simplified skill system (one of the things Fallout fans simply love) and a worse dialogue system (also something important for Fallout fans) I guess it pretty much explains the negative opinions and it's also something which would be a problem for me.



Gems of War is out for Xbox One.
It's basically like Puzzle Quest. Pretty good F2P game.

Already released on Steam:

Nice, I'll probs download it as I finish off getting all achivements on Pneuma, the achivements are super easy on it. 



Quantum Break will be great man!
And that article was only covering about the combat of the game.
The things i liked most about all they showed was the time powers, the time vision and the fact that this game will not be a cover shooting game, meaning a more intense combat.
Now i want that in the future they cover other aspects of the game, like puzzles, the scenarios and maps, the evolution system (i'm expecting something like a Deus EX stile) etc...
