What results is a violence-pandering mess with an ingrained kill-loot-return system, with no room left for personality.

Once a mod for Fallout 3 and New Vegas, it’s now a major feature and advertising point of Fallout 4 as we’ve come to find out from Bethesda’s blogs, it’s also there due in part to one of the devs noticing his children playing Minecraft and being inspired by it.īy listening to the unsorted mess of criticism and fan requests for Fallout 3, and browsing the Nexus for ideas, it seems Bethesda didn’t have the time or desire to work on what mattered, so they filled the gaps with procedural content to pad the playtime before half-assing it on the handmade content.

Now, it’s not even recognizable as an RPG system, but as a FarCry 3-esque leveling system.Īnd then there’s Nexus Mods, where fans remade Fallout 3 into a slightly more modern title with mods like ‘Wanderer’s Edition’ and indirectly pointed Bethesda in the direction to take. They continued to hamper choice and consequence, and the core mechanics, like no other, because I suppose Fallout 3 wasn’t simplified enough. More so because Bethesda listened to their fans, not the classic Fallout fans, despite all the criticism of Fallout 3, and went their own way once again. First there was The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, and now Fallout 4 has fallen flat on its face. It seems like the number 4 is a cursed one in the games industry, for Bethesda especially.

Looking past the almost exclusively positive ‘professional’ critical reception of this game, to the opinions of those who spend their hard-earned money to get access to their games, it’s clear Bethesda made numerous mistakes in overhauling one of the longest running PC IPs into a mass-market mashup of genres and gameplay styles. This tradition stopped with Fallout 4, with the adoption of new game mechanics and styles of world and character progression that move the IP away from being an RPG to an action game with RPG elements. Through the years, these elements that many consider to be staples to the franchise have been passed down from game to game. An open world role-playing video game with a focus on tabletop mechanics of statistics, perks and traits, while player-agency was handled by reputation and karma in a fully realized and reactive world. The Fallout franchise has been around since 1997 starting with Fallout.

Special thanks go to AgentBJ09 for proof reading, correcting, and editing this all into a single whole.Īgain, this review should have been put online much earlier but should give members and visitors to this site and forum a general idea of what the Fallout community of NMA thinks of Fallout 4 The participants in this project were: Ediros, Chud (Richard P.), JO’Geran, 0wing, AgentBJ09 (Adam G.) and CT Phipps.

When no review was written for the original game in the weeks after the release of, we decided to instead write a review of the game when it was released in its totality (the base game and all of its DLCs) to give a general overview of the title.Īlso, instead of just having one or two reviewers voice their opinion the decision was made to allow several members on the forum to put in their opinion on the game, how the Fallout lore is treated, how it lives up to its predecessors, and the expectations of the Fallout fandom. This project has been some time in the making now and it was suppose to be released much earlier during November on the day that Fallout 4 was released a year ago.
