Everyone ITT is just screaming about Fo4 being bad without explaining why.


Fo4 is bad because of the voiced protagonist and dialogue wheel.
They limited how much the player could say, and because of that the writing suffered, and when the writing suffers the story suffers too.

Everything else about the game is either alright or fantastic.

Don't forget the perk poster, that means modders can't add more perks to the game.

Don't forget the fact that workstations are just about everywhere, and the lone survivor magically knows how to make just about god damn everything, from baseball grenades to stimpacks, without the need for an instruction book/perk/blueprint like the previous games so there would be some reason to play the game.

Don't forget the god awfully small map that a third of it is empty ocean, even when there's a giant sea beast you encounter during a quest or a walk along the beach.

Don't forget the DLCs that were just glorified steam workshop mods (Conveyor belts, pipes for balls to fall down, cages that 'trap' things when you bait them)

Shit like mechanics, weapon variety, more shit to loot, kill and build has been fixed. But everything about the bad and restrictive dialogue options, limiting choices without consequences and lack of control over a faction you're tasked with rebuilding you can't fix. Which is what ruined the game.

The ONLY things that Fallout 4 did right were gunplay mechanics and power armor. Even then, the fusion cores weren't very good for power armor because you end up swimming in them very easily, so they might as well not exist, which would've made more sense with the lore in the first place. But...

What this anon said
You know what made Fallout 3 at least somewhat fun to play? The fact that you could enter a Vault or some building, overcome the traps and enemies, and you got rewarded with a nice a unique weapon or armor; even if it was a fucking useless wig or a gun you dont use at least you knew something was waiting at the end for your effort

This was removed from 4 with the inclusion of legendary stuff

Thing is, they did a good job with some of them like Kremv tooth that was just a machete but with a custom skin, an interesting backstory and an actually unique modifier; yet most of the other stuff is rather forgettable and uninteresting

Yeah, but once again it had to be fixed with mods

I was just pointing out how bethesda clearly did a half-assed job when they tried to implement the legendary weapon system

They had some great uniques in the game like that handheld cannon or the cryo-gun that might be shit but at least they were interesting. Now most guns are just named legendaries with one of the legendary effects.

I wish the legendary effect had some thought put into it instead of just rng. Why not made it so modifiers are more common at certain levels or they show up in better weapons/armor? Instead of you being able to find the most broken weapon in the game just after leaving Sanctuary or spending the whole game finding nothing better than a 10mm gun or leather armor

However, while there are some nice mods that allow you to roll with Dogmeat and another companion, turns your weird Pipboy omni-light into an actual flashlight, adds tons of weather effects, and greatly diversify the settlers your settlements attract, if you didn't like vanilla FO4, there really isn't much out there that revolutionizes it.

You can polish a turd all you want, anon. It's still just a polished fucking turd.

The story is utterly and irredeemably broken. It's worse than F3. The perk system is broken, levelling system makes any sort of tactical choices for perks meaningless, stats have no meaning any longer, all the weapons are exactly the same except for a few numbers, and all the armors except for the power armors are the same.

Short of a total conversion mod, F4 is DOA. I'll keep playing New Vegas.

Fallout 4 is an ok game, it's a terrible RPG and arguably not even a Fallout game, but if it was called "Dude survives the nuclear holocaust and shoots stuff" and get stripped of the Fallout universe it'd probably get off easier.

The modding community is sadly only interested in adding boobs and nude mods. What few mods are around that do anything different only fix the most nagging and superficial problems with the game. As an RPG the problems with Fallout 4 cannot be fixed by modding without rebuilding half the games systems from scratch.

I recently did a modded playthrough, gritting my teeth through some of the more retarded bits. The DLC adds little of interest, though Far Harbor as a thing was a passable addition to the base game. Nuka World breaks down under the weight of how completely fucking irredeemably retarded the game, the concept and its systems is and has soured it enough for me to not touch it again unless better men than I find a way to rewrite most of the games systems and flow from the bottom up.

As for the oft cited dialogue system and voiced protagonist: This is one of the core problems with the game that destroys any replayability and real choice, and can probably never be fixed by mods.

Which is a shame, because somewhere deep down there is a passable game, that got shit up by Bethesda being completely incapable of understanding what made Fallout good.

Fallout 3 had a working dialogue system, some places of actual interest and charm to discover like paradise falls and big town, was a better rpg, more interesting quests etc.

I suppose muting them is easy enough, just cut the voicefiles and animation, I've just never cared enough to look for the mods because, as you said, it doesn't fix the underlying problem.

Not catching what you mean by "actual dialogue", though. If you mean the mods that type out the words that will be said and not just giving you a keyword, I consider that essential and I have no idea why Bethesda didn't just steal that mod and patch it into the base game by now. I mean, they've proven they aren't above stealing from modders before.

It's an okay rpg, it just happens to be that most rpgs are really bad. If you've played stuff like divinity or the quests of runescape you can really tell that the people who laud it as a great rpg just haven't played that many good ones.
Gameplay is basically equal to fo3.

Limited as fuck dialogue (as a result of wheel and voices like you mention)
No roleplaying
No Skills
Perks Gutted
Weapon variety is fucking disgustingly small
LOTS of essential NPCs
Skinner box feedback gameplay loop (Get quest, go shoot shit, get reward)
Most quests in the entire game boil down to "shoot things in this location and come back"
Theme park world design (Never away from SOMETHING TO DO YAY, even though it has no depth)

Crafting menus being well organized
Power Armor in general
Shooting mechanics improved

You can't fix something with mods when there is nothing remotely redeemable about the game at all. There's only so much you can polish a disgusting pile of crusty old shit.

most of the stuff fallout 4 gets shit on 4 is totally stupid though. no bethesda game has ever had good dialogue. fallout in general has never had dialogue rise above the level of old movie parodies.

It's bad for a lot more than that anon

Limited dialogue because of the main quest, which casts you as a specific. You can literally only be kind of an asshole or a saint version of that character. That also means no roleplaying. IN A FUCKING RPG.
Perks are fucking dumb, no strategy in choosing which things to focus in. I've also always liked Skills and they gutted that too. Extremely limited quest variety.

It's an extremely mediocre open world shooter at best, and a fucking pathetic Fallout game at worst.

Having better 'gunplay' doesn't count for much when most of the guns aren't worth shit for design or how differently they handle due to weapon mods trying to cover all of the bases instead of each category having a more diverse base lineup.

the devs planned to include the chinese assault rifle from FO3 in the game. that would've been awesome. why wasn't that included? they even made a model for it

>>384860909
It is amazing but it still suffers from a fuck ton of bugs (most of which can be fixed with mods and console commands). It feels like an actual RPG, the weapon variety and weapon mod system is insanely fleshed out. Combat is fun. SPECIAL/perk specialization feels like it matters well up to end game. The factions are fairly fleshed out, your choices feel like they have impact and there are tons of side quests. The DLC is well worth playing and it has a great modding community and tons of mods that can keep the game fresh well after you've done everything in the vanilla game.
It suffered from only having a 13 month dev cycle but it has a fuck ton of content and it's an overall well-rounded game.

So what's the reward for exploration in Fallout 4? The even more dull quests than in 3? Or you mean the super interesting pieces of lore that completely destroy the previously established story? Or fuck me, are you actually trying to tell me that the combat in this game is the reward itself?

Nobody plays video games where you don't get to win anon, there has to be a reward to push you forward. I don't want to fight a fucking horde of crabs to get a weapon that does fuck all against said crabs
>>

>Nobody plays video games where you don't get to win anon, there has to be a reward to push you forward.
Keep on pushing that button to get the treat

Also I said >games are getting worse
The more retards eat up the Beth Fallouts without large backlash the more and more formulated they will be.
This is how a series dies and slow shitty death.
>>
>>384861784
I'll take going through a dungeon for an unique weapon with a backstory any day over going through a dungeon for a shitty "unique" gun with a randomized enchantment
>>
>>384846556
Shitty writing can't be fixed by mods and it ruins everything else. So, they didn't.
>>
>>384872517

They're both a problem.
One is just grindy and loot pinata while the other is specific reward.
Go to Dungeon, Fight the Drau-I mean Raiders/Sythns/Etc, Collect Reward.
Take shortcut to entrance.

No depth.
Just repeat the trash gib reward gameplay model over and over. Fallout games are supposed to be RPGs. Not Single Player pseudo-MMO loot grabbers
>>
>>384868439
>No reedemable faction
Holy shit, I fucking hated this
It's like the writers all got together and and said:
>Hey guys how do we make the factions have a little more depth to them? Apparently the BoS in 3 were too good and the Enclave too evil
>I know! Let's make them morally gray
>How do we do that?
>Oh... you know... just make them be as bad as they are good or something like that
>>
>>384871038
Like said >>384871080 it's called the handmade rifle now. It's the same reason the creation kit didn't come out till much later than they said it would. Because people had already made mods that did what they added with the dlc but better. If they had drop that before the dlc no one would have bought them.
>>
>>384871215
Depends on the build, personally I'm running a combat rifle with a 10mm pistol for a side.

Wish obsidian would buy the Fallout IP, but thats probably never going to happen because Betheseda/Zenimax want to milk it until its nipples blee like they're doing to skyrim, at least with obsidian Fallout's lore would suffer the warth of incompetent story writers
>>
>>384873091
No, it's never going to happen because Obsidian can't afford it. That's why all their new stuff is on Kickstarter.
>>
Its funny how Fallout NV is buggy,dated but still a superior product to Fallout 4, you know what Fallout NV is Fallout 4 and this fallout is a shitty spin off from a smaller studio at Zenimax that is not Cannon in anyway, thats what I like to believe.

I often think people are less enamored with the content itself and more with that fact that the entire game was made in 13 months which is amazing considering the sheer amount of content the game shipped with
>>
>>384872273
So let me get this straight; you're playing an open world "RPG" that doesn't incentivize the player to go out and explore? Have you ever played a FPS where you don't get to shoot at something? Or a racing game where you don't compete with other racers?

I just want them to have a good game design man, I would love to explore in new vegas or fallout 3 even if it only gave me a fucking bottlecap or a quantum nuka cola cause at least it had a nice setting, or a fun implied story told by the scene

You seem to be thinking that the only way to incentivize players is with the promise of loot.

The thing is that Betheseda creates a world, then it writes a story.

Obsidian Writes a story, then creates a world to support a story.

The game gives the impression that your choices will in any way, impact the final outcome of the game.

All you really do in the game is sit and watch a cool CGI movie from start to finish. Any semblance of player choice is totally out of the question.

>Everything else about the game is either alright or fantastic.

what about the rpg mechanics being gutted and the procedurally generated quests

Beth would never allow it even in Obsidian had the money because even normalfags would see how much better it is than 4.

For the sake of the argument I'll pretend you didn't read the rest of my post and so I'll ask you this simple question: What is worth exploring for? What makes you play Fallout 4 or any other open world game and get out of your settlement to see what's out there?
>>
>>384869827
>You can literally only be kind of an asshole or a saint version of that character. That also means no roleplaying. IN A FUCKING RPG.
So, Ultima series has nothing to do with RPGs.

>You can literally only be kind of an asshole
I wouldn't even call it that. You can be an annoying douche who does what everyone tells him to or you can be a nice guy who does what everyone tells him to in FO4. That's it.
>>
>>384874371

People/Dialogue
Quests/EXP
In the case of Fallout, lore/insight to the past or the area
Supplies in general

If most things worth finding in the world are just Weapons/Armor and Kill X quests it just feels shitty in an RPG.
Fallout3/4 suffer from their shallow writing and rely mostly on loot to make the world worth your time.
The games fall extremely short of all expectations.
>>
>>384873793
I feel this is true and this is the reason why so many parts of the world are left unexplained or simply they didn't care to add a bit more depth to it

Like the whole gunner group that you get to find their HQs and even their leader, and yet you never get to learn fuck-all about them or why they're there.
Or the many other named "bosses" that you never get to learn anything about and are just there cause the dungeon needed a boss
>>
Sex mods aren't developed enough yet.
>>
>>384874679
Then you truly didn't read the rest of my post where I talk about not needing shiny loot cause I loved exploring in Fallout 3 and New Vegas and most of the areas had fuck all of loot simply because they had good stories and that is a reward on itself

But I seem to think it was a miscommunication on my part seeing you agree that fallout 4 had shallow writing. And this is why I find it so boring, because as you said it has to fall back to handing out loot with its shitty legendary gear system to make up for its boring setting and lack-luster story, and yet it fails miserably in this department too in my opinion
>>
Truth is is can be turned into an OK stalker-esque shooter.

Threads like this one keeps getting posted and i keep replying with this youtube link:

But no one really ever responds.
>>
>>384867954
it's already made
It's better I guess, but only because it gets rid of all the horrible characters and dialogue and it's purely survival

>>384875358
Has anyone every tried to turn FO3/NV/FO4 into a STALKER clone? It seems like someone would have tried at some point.

I love Cait though. I spend a lot of time just relaxing and spending time with her, near the beach or building settlements.

I enjoy the game itself too. Played through with very few mods when it came out, now I'm playing through with like 190 mods active.

I liked 3 and NV, and Skyrim/oblivion/morrowind too. So maybe I just like the type of game a lot.

Cait was a really cool character I even ended up cucking Curie for Cait

It's pretty nice once you mod it up, the settlements are fun. But the role playing is dog dick.
>>
>>384846556
The way I see Fallout 4; it set up an awesome template for the next game. You can't deny that the character creation on that game was the best in any RPG ever.
