A lot of the time in 4 vs NV threads I feel like there's arguments about how FNV's factions are better because they're all morally grey. However, I dont think this is a good thing.

Fallout 4 lets you play the way you want. RP as a good char? minutemen. RP as a bad one? institute. SJW audience? railroad. Nerd for Sci Fi/Medieval/ Gas the synths race war now? Brotherhood.

The player will identify and really like one faction, and that's a good thing. New Vegas' grey factions are more immersive and realistic, but its harded to actually like them.

The first few times I played NV, I tried to be a good character, but I realized that every faction made me rub out someone somehow, whether its House or the Brotherhood. I went independent to try to be the good guy, but even then, the ending was terrible even with good karma.

NV's realism take away from RP, unless you want to be a maximum edgelord

Really makes me think....

NV felt like a mod for fallout 3, and I could never get out of that feeling. I played it for many hours and whole game just felt like a mess.

>It's a segmented garbage """"area""""(s) with two casino locations and a bunch of gay bullshit

I don't know why people love it so much. I'm thinking because with Obsidian back in the seat they felt more at home with it, but I honestly have always thought it sucked, and this is straight up not bait.

Having said all that though, F4 was pretty disappointing too desu, but definitely not "shit".

It's not that I want them freed dumbass. It's that they are committing random act of murder on flesh and blood people to put the robots there in the first place. You'd have better odds surviving radroaches every day than a synth courser/assassin once a year

How do people get around the whole parent thing in 4?

Its really jarring when you try to forget about it and then some dialog talks about your son.

>>382915786
The RR faction is somewhere on the chaotic spectrum for sure.

In FNV, House and NCR are both lawful neutral, the Legion is lawful evil, and YM is chaotic neutral. Just as bad numerically, made worse because good is out of the spectrum.

I would accept this more easily if fallout was still nobledark, but its come a long way since then.

>>382914040
Of all the things you could argue Fallout 4 did right, I seriously don't think it was the factions.
I don't know if it was they were too morally gray or more the fact that they have no redeeming qualities other than maybe their main goal if you believe in it.

>Railroad has the worst and most dislikeable character of the whole game and they don't care about killing thousands of people because Synths>Humans

>BoS are Nazis, like literally wouldn't be surprised if somebody poked their head in the story design department and said: "Alright guys, remember the good guys from the previous game? I read on the internet they're like xenophobes or something in those 2 games everybody loves, totally a selfish and racist thing to do. Write them as Nazis or something"

>Institute inability to let you work with other factions despite you being the director by the end of the story is almost as retarded as their synth gorilla or synth replacement project, but at least they let you chose if you wanna help or screw the commonwealth

And I can't speak for the railroad because I've never done a run with them

It's easier to shoot shit in Fallout 4.
But it's shooting is still pretty bad. New Vegas was more of an RPG and better at being one than 4 was at being a shooter.

Maybe I'm just spoiled after playing the new Wolfenstein's and Dooms but Fallout 4 still feels just as sluggish as Fallout 3 did,.
>>
Yes and no.
Yes you cant make everyone happy in new Vegas. Whatever ending you choose someone will loose on it. But you still can try to be a good/bad person.
Factions in Vegas doesnt tell who are you. You arent a good guy or bad guy by choosing NCR/Legion. All those factions are more like diffrent governments, and which one you believe is best for mojave. You get :
>Corrupted republic
>Anarchy
>Slavery monarchy
>Authortarian capitalist
While in fallout 4 faction you choose, automaticaly choose your character. You can be
>SJW
>Slavemaster
>KIRRR ARR SYNTHS
>Another village needs our help
You cant make institue stop treating synths like slave even if you became a leader of this faction.

NV just give you options for who you want to fight. But you can still be a good or bad. In FO4 you cant be good while in istitute or bad when in railroad

OP here

Railroad is a faction that serves an audience. Daily reminder that there are people that defend a certain religion of peace suicide attacking others.

They made the BoS not a meme Mary Sue faction. It's not perfect, but its a step in the right direction and appeals to the hurr durr muh kekistan muh stormfornt audience that contrasts the railroad

What they got right was diversity. I like NV better than for by virtue of having real dialogue and skills but its infuriating seeing this same bullshit argument of 4's factions being poorly written.

The faction in 4 dont serve the same purpose as those in NV. They dont immerse you in the world, they are springboards to roleplay off
>>
>>382914040
>New Vegas' grey factions are more immersive and realistic, but its harded to actually like them.
But that's why I like the factions in New Vegas more, I don't want some one-sided shit
>>
>>382916271
This.

New Vegas was a roleplaying game set in Black Isle's Fallout setting. Fallout 4 was an FPS with dialog options set in Bethesda's Fallout 3 universe.
>>
>>382917556

>Maybe I'm just spoiled after playing the new Wolfenstein's and Dooms but Fallout 4 still feels just as sluggish as Fallout 3 did,.

This right here. I always hear the explanation that Fallout 4 is meant to just be played as an open world shooter, but even on that level it just doesn't feel as good as a dedicated shootan game.

>Fallout 4 factions catter to identity politics, which are basically meme politics

Yeah, you don't get the same feedback you get from real shooters. It's open-world aspect is worse, too. I got excited when I saw Phineal Hall, wondering if there would be a quest or community there. No, it's supermutants.
Same thing for most interesting places in the game. Just shooting.
>>
The faction choices in 4 pretty much parallel the ones in NV

Minutemen are Yes Man, the player-controlled option that's unfailable in case you fuck all the others up

NCR and Railroad are the well-meaning but incompetent guys, the former because of bureaucracy and the latter because of lack of resources and extremely specific purpose

Brotherhood and House are the secure but morally dubious option because neither cares about anyone who isn't part of their club

Institute and Legion are the de-facto bad guys who do unreasonably evil things for poorly-justified reasons.
>>
>>382918932

I just realized this translates into gameplay as well. The minutemen and yes man are infailiable in game and the backup faction. Preston and YM are essential characters that cant be killed.

the institute and Legion must be faced down in the final battle for every ending that is not their own.
>>
>>382918856
Identity politics has never been a huge thing until recently, it's meme politics because it's not important and it's being pushed to cause division in society
>>
factions in 4 are inconsequential regardless
you just choose which faction not to blow up
>>
>>382918434

I almost want to say there isn't even a comparison between Fallout 3 and Fallout 4. They took so much life out of the game and replaced it with time-sinking features that are cool to look at and interact with, but do not make for solid building blocks to create a fun RPG.

I've lost hope in Bethesda. Next installment will probably be multiplayer with several DLCs and funny hat and outfit addons.

Valid points

I would argue that the problem with it is that you don't get many options regarding the outcomes you want to achieve.

The game emphasizes hard the idea that synths are just like humans, that possibly have a "soul" and you should care and help them. Yet the only faction that lets you reach this goal is the Railroad, and it only happens thru the destruction of the 2 other major factions. This faction was initially my go to because I bought the whole "Synths are just like us" idea the game shoves to you (Curie was my waifu) and yet I couldn't continue down their questline once they started requesting sabotage and destruction of other people for the sake of synths. I don't have anything about those who want to roleplay as extremists, if anything I like that this game gives you the option since I dont think there are many games that let you do that nowadays; but to not give you the option on how to approach the ultimate goal was what killed the faction for me.

Regarding the brotherhood I cant argue with it if you like the direction they are taking the faction. I admit is fun as hell to roleplay as a brotherhood knight in this game. I personally don't feel like they were "Mary sue" in previous installments, heck in NV they are a dying faction precisely because of their elitism and refusal to allow trading with the outside world. If you're talking specifically about FO3 then I believe nobody will miss the flavorless faction that it was Lyons BoS
>>
>>382914040
>it's harder to actually like them
I guess that's why we still have threads where people argue about their favorite faction being THE ONE TRUE CHOICE FOR THE WASTELAND until bump limit.

>>382920694
I actually liked the Dance Quest. But is it just me or was Maxson a bit... dull, from his character? Also, I like the BoS as Knights, the military touch was a bit meh, but it is actuall a reasonable consequence of maxsons leaderstyle and them growing more and more power.

Demolition Expert is really fun.

The build I'm using now starts off with 8 luck. I'll find an in-game item that modifies your luck and I'll buy an implant to max my crit chance. I got the Light Touch perk at level 2, Cowboy at level 8 and Finesse at level 10 and used the revolver "Lucky" for the majority of the game. I crit enemies like 90% of the time and its one of my favorite weapons to aim with, if you don't mind the slow reload animation. I mitigated that by maxing my agility to 10 and getting the Rapid Reload perk.

I think the most damning part of fallout 4 is the fact that there is essentially no replayability to it. The game is so linear in it's story and gameplay that you aren't going to really get anything new out of a second playthrough. You aren't gonna see any major new bits of story depending on what faction you pick, it just changes the skin of who's sending you out to get random bits of machinery or to kill mutants and raiders. Even the builds you can pick all start to feel the same. Guess that's why they chose to do all that scaling content and "infinite" gameplay shit, it was some attempt to trick people into sinking time into it so they don't feel as if they over paid.

New vegas is better than F3 and probably 4, but it's overrated.

The Legion is literal edgelord villain rapists under the most paper-thin guise of moral greyness. Even fallout 3 did morally grey way better with The Pitt. Even Skyrim did morally grey better with the civil war.

And then there's House, the brilliant genius secluded billionaire who was holed up safely in his impenetrable fortress for decades but for some reason decided he had to let the mailman into his bedroom, making the mailman a target of every major faction and in some endings, getting himself murdered.

Or how about the fiends, who are braindead junkies who magically have access to a literally endless supply of bodies and high grade energy weapons, and who somehow can compete with a military base right outside their neighborhood.

What you said is the PG version of identity politics. Free-thinking androids are basically artificial slaves, they are supposedly created by humans to serve them just like slaves and if they ever find the chance they'll rebel, just like slaves.
>>
>>382928793
Their numbers is just too small to justify, there was plenty of human slaves, they don't even agree what defines them as human, remember that they won't go after older models, like Nick, just the ones with a perfected cover.
When you can't even had a functional government, a proper city, water and food, going after oppressed robots it shows that your priorities are fucking screwed.

4s factions are all bad. Minutemen are fucking nonexistent. Railroad is just retarded in general. Brotherhood is too aggressive. Institute did everything wrong.

Fallout 4's main issue is that factions are poorly written.
I won't talk really about Minutemen because they're the retard-proof ending like Yes Man. Even though gameplay wise the faction is flawed.
Railroad is retarded. They have this weird obsession with synth slavery, despite human slave rings existing in the wasteland.
Institute is cartoonishly evil, their goals are just odd. They just seem to be doing research to purposely damage the wasteland, which is nonsense.
What's especially retarded is the nuke the Institute ending. The Institute contains a fuckload of ground breaking technology that could help all these poor folks out there within the wasteland. Acquiring it seems naturally intelligent. Despite that, the Minutemen nuke it. The Railroad, who have a boner for synths, destroy the place where they are created. The BoS which has a boner for technology destroys it as well;
> I went independent to try to be the good guy, but even then, the ending was terrible even with good karma.
It's retarded to shape the ending according to your karma. Blame it on Fallout 3 which had the whole game revolve around your karma level. The essential point is that, every faction is inherently flawed in some way or another, and it doesn't make sense that your karma should actually affect this. The only point of karma is to see how wastelanders view you. The faction you pick is the one you judge the most fitting for the wasteland, then you draw some conclusions upon seeing the ending screens.

If Fallout 4 wasn't a Fallout game do you think people would have had a better opinion on it because it wasn't tarnishing a franchise, or a worse opinion on it because it didn't have a name to hide behind?
>>
>>382930457
yes
>>
>>382930457
The only reason people don't like Fallout 4 is because it streamlined role playing elements, if it didn't have the Fallout moniker it would be recognized as the best loot shooter ever made.

>>382930104
The BoS is pretty good cause they act like they're the righteous good guys but everyone else thinks they're total assholes. Maxson is a cult of personality with delusions of grandeur that wants to be King Arthur of the wasteland.

I agree completely. Especially the last sentence.

>the question here is not "should we have slaves" but "should we make robot slaves" or "should robots be considered slaves once they turn intelligent"
they used to say the same shit about black slaves in a time when it was considered acceptable
not to mention that they also "upgraded" their slaves with eugenics so they'd be more efficient in what they do, just like how androids would be upgraded to do more suitable tasks

>>382930652
that is such nonsense dude.
what you are saying is so hamfisted and far fetched, it's honestly laughable.
just stop.
the synths are not an analogy for black people just because you could use the word "slave".
just like blade runner is not about black people.
just like westworld is not about black people.
just like [insert scifi with human like androids] is not about black people.
i mean, are you literally unable to grasp this?
>>
>>382930737
right.
if you make a ludicrous fever dream statement, it is obviously on me to disprove you.
you don't have to prove it first.
sure.
and no goalposts were moved, what the shit are you even talking about retard?

Have you never seen Bethesda writing before? Also while I don't agree with the guy I can understand where he's getting this idea from, and too be fair they did name the group attempting to free them after a group who freed black people.

Morally grey is better for roleplaying because human beings are inherently morally grey. This post is shit

What a way to excuse poor decision-making on the developers part and shift the blame on the consumers, Todd.

it's not an argument about blacks being androids but how they're both treated simlarly with identity politics, one is part of history and the other is just sc-fi which makes it more safe to discuss with people
in other words, your argument is half-assed and you need to stop relying on feelings

New Vegas isn't even morally grey, The Legion are clearly the bad guys and House would clearly be the good guy, infact they had to throw in a "kill the Brotherhood of Steel" quest just to make him seem uncharacteristcally evil. Fallout 4's factions are greyer than New Vegas

So this is why nvfags are so insecure

Not a master piece but New Vegas is by far the best 3d fallout and can stand with 1 and 2 in terms of quality. Solid 8.5/10 game

>>382930561
What are you talking about the one of the few things Bethesda got right with 4 is the BoS return to form. they are fully going to bring martial law to the commonwealth and strip down any community for the advanced tech they want. they aren't doing it out of the goodness of their hearts, they do it because they want shit

I'd see a half assed game with very little thought or effort put into it either way. Because that is what it is. Only difference in the naming of the product is they tricked me into buying it. Makes me regret defending games like Skyrim or Fallout 3 because fuck Bethesda for selling such piece of shit game on hype. I should have jumped off the bandwagon when they released the PS3 version of Skyrim because it's literally unplayable after so many hours. That's when I should have realized how low they could go.

Daily reminder that the Institute's behavior makes less sense than the Think Tank's, even though the Think Tank are canonically insane.
>>
>>382932790
They still think they're the heroes. Danse is representative of the BoS and he mostly likes when you're nice except when dealing with synths or ghouls. Maxsom believes he's saving the wasteland.

Brotherhood are fanatic purifiers and railroad are synth apologists.
