Another Great Game From Bethesda

Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2015

Platform For Display: PlayStation 4Edition: StandardVerified Purchase

I was worried when I saw some mixed reviews of Fallout 4. I should know by now that Bethesda won't let us down. With a few caveats, this game is amazing.

# Story
The main story arc seems familiar at first. Too familiar. I rolled my eyes as I got in to the vault thinking "this again...". But, it soon takes a pretty unique turn and it managed to suck me in in no time. It turns out, the team who makes the Fallout series knows how to craft a compelling story. If you play the seres for the plot, you will not be disappointed.

# Graphics
The graphics are great but not the best I have seen on the PS4. I just played CoD Black Ops 3 for example and some of the scenes / character models made my jaw drop. While some of the character models on Fallout 4 lack some detail and you might see the occasional extremely-pixelated hair (ahh!), the world itself makes up for it. It is gorgeous.

# Scale
This game is huge. The attention to detail on world design is really impressive given the scale. And as with its' predecessors, there are an infinite number of side-quests to complete if you want to. I read somewhere that somebody had played it for 400 hours and was still finding new stuff. That seems a bit extreme to me, but, you will certainly get many hours of enjoyable playing. I haven't stopped playing yet, but, I think I will get about 100 hours out of it before I am "done" with it.

# Pip-Boy
OK - I might be a curmudgeon about the Pip-Boy, but, the interface is kind of clunky. The fact that it is made to look like a retro terminal is fun for about an hour and then I found myself wanting a full-screen inventory management system that doesn't have faded green text. You can change the color of the text but you can't go full on "get rid of the pip boy" mode. There is a smartphone companion app that is really cool and helps the experience a bit, but, I am not a fan of this incarnation of the Pip-Boy. When Fallout 3 was released, the Pip-Boy still felt new and exciting. Now it feels slightly stifling.

# Inventory Management
The inventory management is just OK. There are a few strange things like when you are "trading" with your companion, it isn't obvious how much storage your companion has available. It feels a little dated when compared to other modern RPGs.

# Settlement Building
There is an element to the game where you have settlements and you can build things on them (food, shelter, power, defense, etc.). It doesn't appeal heavily to me, but, I think it is cool that you can customize the layout of your towns. If you are a "builder" you will appreciate it.

# V.A.T.S
They have cut down on some of the awesomeness of V.A.T.S. Instead of stopping time, it slows time and it is generally not as effective as it was in Fallout 3. That having been said, I think it was a bit too powerful in F3 and I found myself almost relying 100% on V.A.T.S after I leveled up to a certain point. I read about the decision to de-claw V.A.T.S from the Bethesda team and they said it was to make the game a bit more "dynamic". In other words, they want it to feel a little more like a First-Person Shooter and less like an RPG.

# Companions
I feel like gamers have gotten used to the idea that "companions" are going to be totally useless. The companions in Fallout 4 are actually really helpful. Especially in the early stages where you find yourself in situations where you have very few stimpacks and you are fighting baddies that are at the edge of your ability frequently.

# Crafting
The crafting system is great but not that expansive. I am not that much of a "crafter" generally so the fact that the crafting system is pretty light compared to other games is nice. You can dive right in and start modifying your weapons / armor and it doesn't take a guide book to figure it out.

# Bugs
There are, unfortunately, some bugs in the game. Most of them are visual. Sometimes characters do things in cut scenes that are really weird (like interacting with an object that is invisible). Sometimes you will talk to somebody and their mouth will be open wide the entire time and just sort of move around strangely as they are speaking. It's annoying but manageable. Given some time, hopefully Bethesda will patch them.

# Summary
This game isn't a massive evolutionary leap from Fallout 3. If you are expecting something completely different, you should look elsewhere. That having been said, it has a ton to offer fans of the series who are hungry for more. And if you are new to the series, you are in for a major treat.

Pretty Early Review, But It's Awesome!

Reviewed in the United States on November 15, 2015

Platform For Display: PlayStation 4Edition: StandardVerified Purchase

I haven't finished the game yet(as in the main quests), but I figured I'd go ahead and write a review. Considering I'm like 20+ hours into the game. This review isn't going to be much on the story, but more so on the game play and things I do/don't like.

*****EDIT*****

I found out you can actually tag things you need for a mod so when you are out exploring and you come across something you need, there will be like a magnifying glass or something next to that item letting you know that is something you need. So it makes it a little easier to go out looking for the materials.

Some things I like:
The face sculpting is incredible in this game. You have so much more freedom and options to create a character how you want compared to previous games. The graphics are pretty amazing. Yes, they aren't anything too spectacular, but it is a nice upgrade. The lighting is amazing and there is actually color in the game! Being able to change your pip boy HUD(and regular HUD) to almost any color is a neat addition. As opposed to colors just like blue, white, green, and amber.

Because Fallout games are so intricate, I can't remember everything in past games, but there are different levels to Super Mutants now(I may be wrong about this). I was doing this side quest and I ran across this small neighborhood. And of course, it was run by Super Mutants. So naturally, I decided to take them on, I killed a few pretty easily and then there was this other one. I guess the boss? I died quite a few times to him. And I was like a level 15 too. So I decided to snipe him from afar and eventually killed him because he kept running back and forth by this wall. He was a pretty difficult guy to kill. The same thing happened in a different area with Super Mutants while I was exploring. It was actually during the same side quest too.

The weapon modding is cool. I actually don't do it myself, I just get them from the people I've killed. I'm too lazy to remember and go out and search for all the things you need(lol). I also really like the different sights you can have. The way the guns work now make it feel like an actual FPS game. At least for people like me who've played games like COD for a long time. We can FINALLY RUN in Fallout. I know it was in Skyrim, a different game, but naturally you'd assume it would be in F4 and it is. Your AP(action points) affect not just the VATS system, but how long you can run too.

I like how the weather changes. One minute there could be a nice, blue sky, the next there could be some rumbling and this (radiation?) storm comes in. The sky turns green and pretty much everything else does too. There's also these cool lightning bolts in the sky. And if you stay outside during this, you start to get rads. If you have a human companion with you they might say something about not staying out with it going on.

The way you loot things is a lot different(and better) in Fallout 4. It took a little getting used to, it still is sometimes, but it's amazing. All you have to do now is look at something(desk, person, file cabinet, locker, ect...), a menu pops up, and tells you everything that is inside. And when you look away it's gone. Like I said, it might take some getting used to if you've played previous Fallout games or even Skyrim. For a while I kept hitting (what probably would be) the back/exit button on other games after I was done looking instead of just carrying on and I would bring up my pip boy. Haha. The only problem I have is that I wish you could see the value of things when you hover over something. You can actually hit the transfer button which brings up a menu like past Fallout games when you open or want to loot things. And then you can take things out, give things to people or store them, and also see the stats and value of things. Maybe it's just me, but I think it would be better to see the stats/values without having to hit the transfer button if you don't want to. It would make it a lot more seamless.

Now for somethings I don't like:

There's no repair system in the game anymore; weapons don't decay. So I think it just makes picking up weapons from dead people(or wherever) somewhat useless. At least if you have the same gun. Unless you intend to sell them later. There could be a use to picking up the same weapons for modding and whatnot, but the only thing I've gotten was steel when I scrapped a gun. That could just be one part of it. But then again, like I said, I'm not really into searching everywhere to get all the other things you need to mod.

Even though this is under the things I don't like, I'm more indifferent towards this next one:

When you get radiated, it actually affects how much health you can have. The more rads you are exposed to, your health bar fills up in red, and moves across towards the left. So it's useful that if you find any Radaway you pick it up. Even though a Stimpak may heal a lot, especially if you have chosen perks for that, it might not be as effective if you have radiation poisoning. The waiting system is a little weird now. You can't just stand up and wait for hours. You have to go look for some place to sit down and wait.

This is just me, nothing to do with the game: I was hyped for weeks and months for this game, but when I got it, loaded it up, it kind of went away. Mainly just because I was so used to playing F3 and NV so many times, I knew where to go, what to loot ect... Once I started exploring more and finding new places, that excitement came back.

Of course, with Bethesda games, there are glitches and bugs here and there. One is where the subtitles don't work right. Someone could be talking to you, they finish, and then you are talking to someone else, but the previous person's subtitles are still there instead of the new persons. The frame rate isn't horrible, but you do get drops here and there. Mostly with combat or exploring new areas. I actually had a really big frame rate drop one time. it only lasted for 2-3 secs but it happened. You can see it here: https://vid.me/hA0p

The way the dialogue is in the game is different. Not necessarily in a good or bad way. If you liked how it used to be then it might take a while to get used to it. Especially because your character talks now. Instead of having anywhere from like 5-10 options to say things, now it's just 4. Also it's usually just a few words that describe what your character will say instead of having an entire line.

There's a new thing where you can build your own settlements now. It's not really for me. I've done somethings with it, but I doubt I will finish it. Unless I have to for some reason. Also I'm not really the type of person that likes to or knows how to make cool buildings, so if you are into or good at that, then you should definitely try it out.

Overall:

This is another great game from Bethesda! You are definitely getting your money's worth from them/this game as usual. I already put around 20+ hours into this, and I'm still fairly early into the main quests(I assume). Just after where you do that memory thing with Nick. Love this game because it's so massive and there's new things to explore! You can decide to go do a side quest, travel and explore places or towns, and then have even more side quests to do from meeting people and whatnot. I know that's like with all Fallout games, but it's even more fun because these are all new.

Muy divertido y adictivo

Platform For Display: PlayStation 4Edition: StandardVerified Purchase

El juego está completamente en inglés (que era exactamente lo que yo quería), aunque la caja y los manuales vengan en español el juego está completamente en inglés con subtítulos opcionales en inglés y trae un póster de todos los "perks" que puedes conseguir en el juego, está simpático.
Eso en lo técnico, en cuanto al juego en sí, sumamente divertido, ligeramente diferente a Fallout 3 y NV ya que este da más hacia los disparos que las misiones pero eso no le quita lo entretenido. Fácil llevo unas 30 horas y no voy ni a la mitad (haciendo un poco de la historia principal, otro tanto de side quests y otro tanto construyendo un asentamiento) y eso juntándome sólo con una facción, me faltan las otras 3.
En cuanto a la historia.... ehhh... equis pero está bien.
Me encantó desde el principio y lo sigo jugando.
