idk what kind of soulless bastards you have to be to play this game and find it lovely even psyopmonkey thought it was pretty good i also don't know where this concept of Fallout being some super in depth intelligent RPG with tons of branching choices came from either. it was never that. sorry but go play F1 without the rose tinted glasses.

Sonofsilversign posted:did you play new vegas cause you just described it perfectly I played it a lot. Sorry but having multiple ways to complete certain quests and having more than 1 ending isn't "super in depth intelligent RPG with tons of branching choices." Witcher 3 was way better about that by a long shot. NV was "kill these dudes or nah? kill these dudes or nah?" as 90% of the 'in depth choices.' I mean it was great don't get me wrong but  so hard at some of the whining. I saw someone totally misconstrue an in-game conversation that took place either because they were so determined to see fault that they didn't even pay attention or they just straight up lied for epeen cred. It's just ridiculous. It isn't Bethesda's fault that you got crazy hyped on a video game and then it didn't meet your impossible expectations. Perfect graphics AND great story AND tight gameplay AND huge world AND... I mean get a grip already. Some people are acting like Todd Howard executed their family.

So this is morphing to the games thread where if you dont like it you just have impossibly high expectations. Got it. JB50 fucked around with this message at 00:09 on Nov 11, 2015 |

Despite all the nerds bitching and nitpicking, this game sure is popular http://store.steampowered.com/stats/ When is a single player game ever more popular than Counter-strike and Dota2?

Kakarot posted:when its released Not really. I can't recall a single player game ever being more popular than CS and Dota2 or pulling in those kinds of numbers. Maybe Skyrim when that launched. That's about it. Maybe nobody cares what a bunch of neckbearded basement dwellers on the internet have to say about FO4 or their impossibly high expectations? Seems just like Walking Dead where nerds on the internet bitch about it constantly, but it's the most popular show on cable TV.

NV had insane replayability because of the freedom and variety in how you could approach questing and roleplaying. ive only been playing 4 for about 15 hours but i dont think ive encountered anything more complicated than a yes/no answer to a fetch quest which really sucks imo and is kinda sad when you realize the game this one isnt living up to came out 2010

Why don't you just complain about real things instead of being all 'BUGGY GAME BROKEN MESS!' when it obviously isn't nearly as buggy as any other Bethesda game on launch? And idk if you've been in the games thread lately but it's been 2-3 weeks of solid hating.

There's only a couple quests I can think of that legit have different paths to completion (the cannibal one was brilliant) and most of them were most definitely 'go here, kill this, fetch this' quests. I mean yeah it'd be nicer to have quests on par with Witcher 3 but tbh that's never been this series' strong suit. Going into a Bethesda game expecting some engrossing RPG story experience is for sure a path to disappointment. Moridin920 fucked around with this message at 00:22 on Nov 11, 2015 |

Here is the official Sheep-Goats review of Fallout 4, which I developed from painstakingly reading some posts and not being an idiot: Fallout 4 is a good game that you should buy and enjoy, not quite as good as FNV, but better than FO3. There are some mods coming in six months that will be good and two out of the five DLCs will be great and the other two decent and the fifth one wet donkey poo poo. The game will be available with all DLCs for 35 dollars in 1.5 years. If you can wait two years and find a steam sale this same package will be under 20 dollars. Enjoy game. PS Dear Bethesda: God bless you forever for making Morrowind but please hire the crazy guys that you fired from the Morrowind group back and kill Todd Howard with a dildong

Sonofsilversign posted:The difference is that your build changed how you approached quests. with high enough attributes and skills you could shortcut, find new ways to proceed or skip quest entirely, you could let your OP companions and faction support do everything for you or deal with it yourself. you could fight the entire world or try to be diplomatic or manipulative or whatever. this game lets you say yes, no, ask for more information or say yes but sarcastically your build is totally irrelevant Yeah that's fair enough. The 4 choice dialog thing is probably my biggest issue with this game. I will say that the perks are enough that you can still specialize your character. Maybe even more so since you can't just grind every skill to 100 like in Skyrim or max Int and do the same thing in NV or FO3. It's 1 perk per level and there's so many that you'd have to be some ridiculously high level to ever get them all. Groovelord Neato posted:hmmm nope lol yeah? what quests are you thinking about specifically? I gots hundreds of hours in that game dawg. Cannibal quest, end of Dead Money, and which faction you end up joining are probably the most 'change-y' of all the quests. Otherwise most choices are binary. Help the Boomers, kill the Boomers. Help the BoS, kill the BoS (granted how you did that could be varied). Yeah, there's a lot of smaller touches like various ways to kill the Van de Graffs but idk that I'd call multiple ways to finish a quest something crazy deep. Either they die or Cassidy does. That's it. Almost none of the quests affected each other like they do in W3. It doesn't ultimately matter where you redirect the power in the HELIOS One quest other than some small lines of dialogue changing. Most of the time the effect of your choices is just different NPCs standing around. I mean look yeah NV's writing is better, the quests are better, etc. But again why do you expect that from Bethesda? Obsidian is not Bethesda. If your complaint is it feels more like an action game than an RPG game then yeah alright that's valid. Moridin920 fucked around with this message at 00:42 on Nov 11, 2015 |

Played it for a few hours so far. Pretty good game. Unfortunately, it looks the the grenade launchers from NV aren't making a return. Looking forward to someone modding them in.

The 4 choice dialog thing is probably my biggest issue with this game. the perk tree is awesome, way better than the skill system. weapon and armor customization owns. settlement building is cool and will be the poo poo once modders fix the lovely UI and start adding more building options. FO4 is a pretty good shooter with rpg elements and thats okay.

Help the BoS, kill the BoS (granted how you did that could be varied). you do realize in most of the "binary" quests bits branch off of them depending on what you do to complete them. most quests aren't one thing, you do a piece of it which can be resolved a number of ways. and if they weren't jackasses they woulda hired obsidian.

the settlement thing seems tedious to me, but I'm guessing you don't have to focus on it too much. i'll probably play it 2-4 years from now like I did with the last 2 games
