Fallout 4 Review "Buy, Wait for Sale, Rent, Never Touch?"

Is this worth a buy in 2019? Just looking for something that never played before while waiting for other games to come out.

Bethesda is always been OVERRATED,these graphics are awful,these games are nothing really amazing,people are starting to realize now after the even shittier fallout 76,just a bunch of talentless worthless people trying to make a cash grab game

That "cha-ching"whenever I kill something is kind of immersion breaking.

"Watching it through a glaucoma" lol

excellence? lmao, hillarious

Fallout 4 is one of my favorite games O F A L L T I M E

The whole building and exploring stuff, doesn't make sense, because why would anyone do that stuff, when they have a missing child! lolz

Glad someone liked the quests. To me they are all the same. Talk to someone, accept mission, go someplace, kill enemies get object and return. There's very few missions where you can avoid killing people. Hell its hard to be a bad guy in F4.

I booted this up a week ago. I hate to say it, but it's a very lifeless game. They pretty much improved the gun play, and made everything else worse. There are no interesting quests, where you're given much choice. No matter how intricate they seem, they boil down to clearing out mobs, and I think this was done to show off it's FPS gameplay. I never gave a damn about how wonky the real time gun play was in the past games. They were RPG's, where you had to invest in skills in order to be accurate and deadly with your weapons. The COD fanboys whined about it, and it looks like those were the only complaints Bethesda listened to, so now it's a 100 hour long FPS, with light RPG elements. It's just boring and monotonous.

I tried 3 times playing this game and I had fun for like an hour but I quickly realized how there is no survivor sense in it, and the game gives you everything from the start. Also, the difficulty levels are stupid as fuck, they just make you do less damage and make enemies do more damage. That is not true difficulty in this day and age, I expect some more tweaks.

watching this in 2019, wondering if I should buy the game. Its on sale for 10 bucks.

Never played a Fallout game. I got a PS3, but also at a time where I had got married, did my residency, and had a kid. I missed a lot of the last gen. I still have a PS3, so should I play FO3 and FONV first?

Based on reviews, I think I will enjoy NV the most, but thats honestly just a guess.

I wish there was a VR version of FO3 & NV for PSVR. I know PC has this ability. No VR on my PC though.

I know it's already been reviewed to death but I'd just love to see you pretend to review Fallout 76 and go over all the issues with a fine comb and see your reaction to it.

There will be no blue wave !! But there just may be a red wave.

HEYNOW ~ Cool Review : I’ve watched this Review Several times Since April 27, 2016 when I got FallOut 4 Pc Goty with HigH Resolution Texture Pack and just wanted too say how You nailed this game with what I’m guessing was about 30 hours of GamePlay ? Bethesda is Jealous 🎮 As always Thanx 4 Posting & much Love from Portugal 🇵🇹

This is up for 9.99 on ps rn. Worth it?

I just couldnt get into this game, looked like crap, plays like crap, just feels like a clunky game coded with legos

BEST ever review

Tho fallout has been and will always be my favorite franchise, this was BY FAR the weakest game of all of them, and to me it felt like most of the RPG and true end choices were gutted. I had a great time, and there were a few stand out moments. However I hope this is a bridge to what Fallout 5 can do in 8 to 10 years after Bethesda is done chasing fortnight and rust with Fallout 76. Thank you as always Karak for the in depth quality reviews, and thank you to your patrons which allow you your Independence.

Ps2 graphics

Shit game

IMO NV had way better textures.

One thing I want to say, Now look with this current generation of consoles I would think that issues no matter the type of game whether a f.p.s and or open world sandbox, that issues with game crashes frame rate drops muddy textures screen tearing and texture pop in and glitches and other bugs would be gone. Well from gta to fallout and more bugs do still AT TIMES appear in these titles but it seem's that people really take a hard line on fallout or at least n.v 3 and 4. I have yet to play an open world game were these issues were not there!!! Bugs glitches and so on for at least this generation will continue to be apparent in this style of games!!!! but it shouldn't detract from the beauty and down right fun to play this game fallout especially! Red dead 2 is right around the corner!!! Maybe the perfect open world game will grace us with no technical issues???? What do you guys think??!!

I like Fallouts 4 graphics, i dont get why you are disliking it. I think its amazing.
Im not a "judge a game by their graphics guy" but if i can make a list of how to make a game, i would put good graphics as one of the most important. I dont get why people just judge a game with their graphics. Look at FC3,graphics are horrible but I loved that game.

I'm still confused on why you didn't bring up the lack of the karma system or the ability to be evil at all... the role playing is so dry in this fallout

I got it today for ps4 for $8 on a eBay auction, never played a fallout game before. Any tips? Thanks

i never knew people played Fallout in 3rd person. like more than just to laugh at the ice skating. maybe ill have to try it.

Has this game been polished up since launch?

Did you review fallout 3

My first games console was a Master System. To this day I enjoy going back to play my old favourites and have no problem with the dated graphics, as they were the limitions of the day.... however, I have a real problem with sloppy graphics this day and age. I have been flirting with the idea of playing this for a while, but the graphics really put me off. The Evil Within 1 and 2 were fine, so I'm not sure what went wrong here.

I've only had framerate issues in Boston with mods. Xbox one.

LOL... maybe framerate will be DLC. I was slowly thinking about playing this. I think ill wait til there is a deal meaning psn

Do heads still explode every damn time? I got very, very tired of that with FO3. I'm a grown-up, you see.

"you got bricks for ears?" Lol

here because of Steam Autumn Sale, is the in-game performance still that bad? I will play this title on a laptop with 1070 + i7 7700 HQ, and I'm worried that I will still get bad frame rate.

Im replaying new Vegas right now and its amazing how much better written every single goddamn character you come across is.

this isnt a rpg any more.

Framerate DLC eh.. ^^

I have played this game far longer than ANY other. With the mods and DLC I personally feel like this game offers more than any other. At least for consoles.

ugly as well as boring

Not going to lie, the cartoony graphics agitate me. The pipe weapons I thought not only sounded like crap, but were just bad in general. The misleading workbenches, the beginning of the game, crappy dlcs, and unlore friendly content annoyed me. I was severely disappointed with fallout 4.

It annoys me how often people bitch about the base building stuff...

There's literally like two times in the whole game where you have to do it and it's not even slightly difficult.

Why would you not take advantage of it to begin with? Having like 30 settlements on the go at once can be annoying and I get that but what benefit is there to not having at least a couple and outfitting them with good areas to store stuff? Not to mention all the crafting options that become available to you...which are all optional.

If you want to be hardcore and use only what you pick up lying around the world...you do you, you can do that.

People moan like you're forced at every turn to do it but that's false.

The only viable complaint at all in regards to this is how a fair bit of the DLC, Automaton and Vault 88, are almost entirely Workshop related DLC and if you for whatever reason hate that then that's DLC you can't enjoy and may have already paid for.

Otherwise...just don't fucking use the Workshop if it pains you so much.

This is the hallowist and most dumbed down non rpg Fallout ever.. not sure what koolaid you were drinking.. first review of yours i think is biased and just wrong..

is it fun for pointless nothing fun sure but it really is hardly an axtual Fallout game it is a sandbox fps pretending to be an rpg and with a Fallout paintjob on it.. thank god for modders they will make this much better.. this is the most linear "open world" game i have ever played

Huge problem I had with New Vegas was companions.

"HELLO, WANDERER, I AM TOO A WANDERER AND WE SHOULD WANDER, WANDERER"

When the settlers or companions stand in the center of the doorway, or blocking you from placing a bed etc somewhere, I just want to jump through the screen and bash their fucking brains in. ohhhhh it pisses me off!

Without being able to build and control the settlements, Fallout 4 would basically suck.

"Maybe frame rate will be dlc" bahaha I'm dying

don't buy this game it's a pile of garbage. Buy the classic Fallouts the're cheaper and better.
