Not a fan of the last few games?
76 was a bit different, but I still liked it overall once the bugs were worked out. I thought FO4 was decent too, even though I wasn't all that interested in the base-building component.
FO4 has good gameplay, the story is fine. 76 is a online version of FO4 with a subpar story.
Fallout 4 VR is fun and the only way I'd play that game ever again. NV and even 3 were way better.
Let's see how Starfield turns out next week before we panic.
Single player so fingers crossed
I'm trying not to spoil tok much of it for myself but it's unavoidable seeing some stuff with social media as it is these days, but from what I've seen of the conversation screens I looks more RPG again, things like your build, stats, origin, etc play into it instead of just four options like FO4
Bugs were your major issue with the game? That's it?
Personally I didn't like 76 because it's boring. There's nothing fun to do and story is told through terminals FFS.
I don't understand why they couldn't just make a normal Fallout game with real people in it. You could do it Borderlands/Dead Island-style, where people can jump in on your session, or go full role-play and give people real jobs with real duties. Or a hybrid where you can either be a RPer, or a wanderer in a server where the RP jobs are replaced by NPCs. Either option would have worked better than the crap we got.
They added them later but I think they under populated servers when looking at players to be content. It's actually quite good and has been for a while, ive been considering another play through.
It's just a matter of opinion I suppose.
With all the changes they made post launch I really think the game got a lot better. They ended up updating it to be much more like a trypical Fallout game. I enjoyed it more than FO4 in some ways.
The story wasn't as good as NV or FO3, but the mechanics, world/envoronment, and new mutants were all great IMO.
I wonder if I'd like it now considering I wasn't a fan The Elder Scrolls Online.
It really did seem to go through a No Man's Sky turn around from what I've heard
It really turned itself around after launch. I'd give it a try next time it goes on sale.
