Fallout 4 Review [Xbox Enthusiast]

"Having left her power armor back at Sanctuary, Kara and her trusty companion Dogmeat travelled throughout the commonwealth. Kara equipped her favorite arsenal of weapons (including a pistol, shotgun, and sniper rifle) and set off on an adventure. The Commonwealth is a dangerous place and Kara knew it. Raiders were hiding in “abandoned bases” waiting to ambush their prey, animals (some harmless, others ferocious) roamed the dead woodlands, Super Mutants terrorized fellow Commonwealth citizens and then there were ferals. These ‘humans’ that are so irradiated it looks as if they are zombies, congregate in groups in order to feed. Kara realized that the most dangerous thing about the Commonwealth weren’t the dangers that it contained… the biggest threat was the unpredictable situations she found herself in" -- Xbox Enthusiast.

This review score is spot on with what ive been saying. Between 8-8.25. I would only change/add a few things here and there. Overall a fun well-rounded experience.

DLB233467d ago

No. The game is a 8.9/10 or 9.0. The story, gameplay, factions, companions, settlement building mechanics are all better than Fallout 3.

Antifan3467d ago

It's better than Fallout 3, but definitely not better than Skyrim. There's definitely less content, and good side quest compared to Skyrim. Lots and lots of recycling in the game, doing the same side quest over and over, finding the same loot over and over. I just about seen everything in this game in under 90 hours. On the technical side, it's one of Bethesda's less buggy games, and that's a surprise. The building settlements mechanic and crafting is the best part about this game. It's a 8 for me.

I am only stating my opinion Dlb. If it had fewer bugs i would probably score it (personally) higher, but not much. To me after i seen about 75% of the game things started looking extremely familiar, like the same place recycled with different stuff.

"75% of the game things started looking extremely familiar, like the same place recycled with different stuff."

Well, isn't real life the same way? Especially in the city of Boston, locations tend to to be similar.

Were you expecting the atlantis, desert, snow and volcano locations in one map?

Fallout 4 on Switch 2 seems inevitable, but what about Starfield?

A Fallout 4 Nintendo Switch 2 port seems like an inevitability, but what about other Bethesda RPGs like Starfield.

I think all games will end up on switch from Xbox. MS has embraced going to other platforms now if games aren't doing well on Nintendo MS may be more selective in the future

On playstation they have been quite successful

I'm not sure too many people want to play Starfield.

Profchaos58d ago

Phils all but confirmed they are going in hard with the switch 2

TheColbertinator58d ago

All are welcome to Switch 2. Microsoft Games Studios is interested in long term profits and market value not petty fanboy thoughts.

Starfield is actually a RPG. Bethesda hasn't done that in a while.

GhostScholar160d ago

People acted like starfield was so less interesting than fallout and drastically different, but I call bs on that. Both are decent games, but they are both filled with the appearance of things to do and items to interact with but 99 percent are just there to be there with no significance. Fallout has better character work but they are both sort of illusions that they’re vast.

Studio has been going downhill since Skyrim. Every following game gets dumbed down more than the previous. I'll be shocked if Elder Scrolls VI even has dialogue options.

anast160d ago

Fallout 4 was bad, real bad. Starfield might even be a better RPG.

trez1082159d ago

Fallout 4 wasn’t a great fallout game per se but real bad? I don’t know maybe I’m a little biased because I replied it not long ago and had fun with it.
