I do not know if feels pretty equal to 3 and New Vegas to me. But I do not think it is going to top New Vegas as my favorite game in the series. I am about 14ish hours in and I have loved every second of it. Really my only gripe is how they changed the leveling system so much

Too early for me to comment on story, but it doesn't quite catch the "wasteland wanderer" feel fo3 and NV had. Other than that and some bugs it's great so far. Just not as "fallout" as I'd want it to be..hard to explain.



I don't get why anyone is surprised by this. All their games are checklists going from point a to point b collecting item c and killing bad guy d, rinse and repeat for 60+ hours and you got one of their games. Maybe you're just older now and no longer entertained by such a basic storyline.



Game cannot be that bad if you stay around for 24 hours



It's definitely less Fallout than NV. It's iffy how Fallout it is compared to 3. While I'm not completely a fan of the changes to the Skills and such, the world is probably my favorite of the three FPS Fallouts by far. There could be a bit more variety in quests but I'm not gonna complain too much because 3 only had like 20 quests total and I've completed that many side quests already here.



You should check out my YouTube channel, The Golden Bolt!  I review all types of video games, both classic and modern, and I also give short flyover reviews of the free games each month on PlayStation Plus to tell you if they're worth downloading.  After all, the games may be free, but your time is valuable!

I've never played a Fallout game but I've heard great things about it. When my local video rental store was going out of business, I was going to buy Fallout 3 (just to create a female and play in third person) but somehow wound up with the horrendous Tenchu Z.

Anyway, I watched IGN play it on Twitch for like five minutes the day it came out. It wasn't for me. Maybe it plays better than it looks but it didn't look like fun.



You can try to make the stroll through the wasteland a bit more interesting by starting some polyamorous relationships. It is like they brought the best feature of Witcher to Fallout.

Hope that helps.



I blame the way you play, cause i am up in 40 hours now, and i still find tons of things to do.

lol done this many many times when playing 3rd person games and spent embarrassingly long time shaping the details 😁
