Swedish style? No.
Yugoslavian style? Of course not.
It has to be Zlatan-style.

Fallout 4 is the best Fallout
Mass Effect 2 had by far the worst story of the four
Metal Gear Solid is bad and dumb as hell
The least fun part of GTA games is the sandbox
Zelda games all suck, as do most things Nintendo have made
First Person Shooters aren't fun
Morrowind was the worst Elder Scrolls game
Online gaming sucks
Games are art like movies, books or paintings are art (none of them are)

Yeah unless he really liked the Sims: Wasteland Edition aspect that seems super contradictory

ME2's plot sucked because it laid the foundation for the utter garbage of 3. Explaining the Reapers was the worst possible decision they could have made and each Reaper post Sovereign was an obnoxious pissbaby accordingly.

Fallout's 3PS view is the most seasickness inducing poo poo ever so if you played the whole game like that congratulations you are probably the first person ever to do so.

The inability to turn off head bob in the power armor is loving obnoxious and whoever at Bethesda decided it was a good idea should have their head shaken in one of those paint mixer thingies.

Horizon Zero Dawn handles post-apoc as a setting far better than Fallout ever did, speaking as someone who played all of them very near to release if not at release. Yes all of them and I was a pretty big fanboy of them for a long time, but it was just the only game in town. Nier Automata handles it better also, as does Breath of the Wild.

The whole 50's sci fi meets post apoc setting has potential (tbh I don't love it though) but everything in Fallout is just super ugly and sloppy looking. The rangers in NV looked kinda cool and that's about it. The power armor is hideous looking.

Aren't they all more post-post-apoc though? Like about society having already restarted itself, rather than scraping together the last remnants of what was there? Please don't read this as a defense of the way Fallout deals with the post-apoc setting cos there's lots of things it does really badly, but all of those feel like they're set much further after an apocalypse than say Fallout or Mad Max

It's real subtle. The only way to really know, is that everything around you is destroyed and the characters all talk about how the world ended throughout the entire game.

They say that, but like everyone you encounter has lives for a hundred years anyway and despite the world supposedly ending its going to end even harder during the game if you dont stop gannon. By the like 4th character I encountered who was a hundred years old I decided everyone was loving with link and the appocalypse happened a week ago.

The reason I say Fallout handles the post-apoc setting worse than the others is because Fallout uses the wasteland as a setting, but rarely discusses the time before the apocalyptic event, and doesn't use it for much more than an excuse to use that wasteland setting. Most of the backstory is explained as "there were wars that used nukes" but beyond that it's just about how hosed up the vaults were, which only matters for the protagonist's story in Fallout 1. Everything after that is just hey, remember how vaults were bad? Check out this dungeon that is a vault, you can totally read some computer files that talk about how it was bad.

Dying Light is a poorly designed attempt at first person melee action games and the parkour system narrowly masks the lovely controls and feeling that Dead Island had.

It's only fun when you get the expcalibur sword and babe ruth everything.
