Fallout 4 Reviews
After overcoming the impact with a non-triple-A graphics of 2015, you find yourself in an open world RPG from which it is very difficult to detach.

Don't cancel your pre-order, but don't rush to buy Fallout 4 if you didn't place an order already either.
Fallout 4 is the game you've been waiting for months (maybe years?) which will give you fun for weeks

The word "escape" gets thrown around in conversations about why video games are so appealing and never before has there been a title that is this worthy of that term. Fallout 4 contains what should go down as the best open world in the history of this medium considering the sheer wealth of meaningful content packed into it. Some people flock to sandbox games in hopes of checking off boxes, collecting garbage and simply passing time, and Fallout 4 feels like the strongest middle finger to this contingent in years.
If you're willing to put up with some technical issues, Fallout 4 is Bethesda's most ambitious RPG to date.
Bethesda have done it again, refining the formula for open-world RPGs and delivering a vast, deep and involving experience.
A tremendous experience that manages to continually improve upon itself with each passing hour.
I probably can't give a higher endorsement of Fallout 4 than this: I've spent around 50 hours playing between the console and PC versions, and I don't feel like I'm anywhere near quitting.
Fallout 4 offers familiar gameplay mixed with an intriguing plot line and world-building gameplay, but suffers from a buggy presentation.
It's been over seven years since I first fell in love with the series with Fallout 3, and obviously with 4 on the horizon, there's no way of knowing when (or long) it will be until we can jump back into the wasteland once again. However, all I can think of in my time with Fallout 4 is how great it is to be back home again: I don't mind staying for a while.
Bethesda's new post-apocalypse RPG is every bit as big, complex, and compelling as its predecessors, but could have moved the ball forward a little more
Right now I feel there is still tons to mine from the game; if nothing else, despite hitting level 28 after 50 hours, I can see skill unlocks which require me to be almost level 50, and most of the in-game map remains unexplored. If I want it to, this is going to keep me busy for at least the rest of the year.
Fallout 4 is something special. Something special indeed. No, scratch that. It's downright S.P.E.C.I.A.L.
"Fallout 4" is best appreciated over time. Play it for ten hours and the game will likely feel underwhelming. Play it for fifty then see if you can stop yourself from playing it for fifty more.
Fallout 4 sets a new standard for first-person RPGs, and is the best game that Bethesda Game Studios has ever made.
War. War never changes. And neither does the amount of time I'm willing to sink into a Fallout game.
While not revolutionary in terms of storytelling, Bethesda is still the king of interactivity. Fallout 4 delivers on that interactivity in so many forms, it's mind boggling. Crafting, modification, and stronghold building trump a few nagging technical hitches. New enemy AI, coupled with an overhauled combat system, creates gunplay that feels better than ever before. Fallout 4 may be an iterative step forward for the series, but it is every bit what RPG fans know, love, and expect. Just play it on the PC, if you can.
Bethesda has a reputation for two things: stunningly realised worlds and frustrating technical issues. In both cases, the latest Fallout does not disappoint
If you've been waiting for Fallout 4, it will simultaneously meet your expectations and exceed them in others. Who would have thought a Fallout game would convince us of Bethesda's storytelling and shooter credentials? In a year full of brilliant open-world games like The Witcher 3, it manages to stand apart from the crowd and deliver something that feels fresh, despite its familiar foundations.
