Allan Muir of ToasterChimp talks about the real Fallout sequel he hopes for.
Fallout 4 on Switch 2 offers 30fps, 40fps, and 60fps modes, with graphics settings differing from PS4 and PS5 versions.
Following Fallout 4's anniversary update, Nexus Mods have assebled an Anniversary Collection of existing mods designed to offer a free refresh as an alternative
A decade on from its Game of the Year-winning triumph, Todd Howard reminisces on how Fallout 4 changed Bethesda Game Studios, its TV show adaptation and playtesting The Elder Scrolls 6.
They need to look at Morrowind and see what the progression should have been from there instead of the regression we got with the next 2 games. They weren’t horrible games but they could have been so much more.
Fallout 4 just felt too streamlined and accessible to me, the perk system was not as fun as it was in Fallout 3, not saying Fallout 3 didn't have issues but 4 just felt like a complete step back.
So the part where you just sold the same games for the last 10 years while you focused on 76 and merch, was not a reset from the "creative" aspect eh? How very Todd of you.
I bought Fallout 4 (I loved Fallout 3) at launch and I couldn't bring myself to finish it or even get close to finishing it. It was soooo damned boring and bland. I played on a very hard difficulty and I had hundreds of stimpaks. One of the only games I've played for a while and not ended up finishing it. I hated it. Just flat out hated it.
I prefered the faction system of New Vegas as well, and New Vegas still has the best mods, even better than Skyrim.
New Vegas ended up having a lot higher replay value for me as well because the main story was really just a small part of the narrative in the game. Where as Fallout 3 the story was the game there were side quests but they really didn't matter or affect the world.
Fallout 4 is going to be more like Fallout 3. Bethesda cares most about player freedom, dungeon-crawling, exploration, sandbox features, and such. We'll likely see those priorities reflected again in their new installment to the series.
New Vegas was made by Obsidian and they care most about story, characters, and choices - that's why New Vegas had a deeper story and a lot more factions and paths than Fallout 3. But Obsidian isn't working on Fallout 4, so don't expect it to be New Vegas 2.
I hope there will be an Obsidian FO after FO4, in same way as there was FO3/New Vegas. Just give them little bit more time, than with NV. All assets ready, just work on story, world and quests for few years.
