Nobody wanted to set the world on fire, but it still happened anyway. What makes this story unique, though it’s been told many times over throughout this series, is that in Fallout 4 you get to see one of the initial blasts that ended the world. It’s not something you’d call brave or particularly emotive, but it is damn cool to finally see that end of the world we’ve heard so much about for almost 20 years now.
Once the introductory sequence, covering the alternative, 1950s-inspired history/future has run its course, though, you’re back into very familiar territory. In a literal sense less so, with Fallout 4 set in Boston, Massachusetts and a few New England areas – but generally speaking, this is something those who picked up Fallout 3 and New Vegas will know very well indeed. A mostly dead world. Eerie, dreamlike exploration of a ruined landscape. Dangers and death at every turn. Rust.
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.
