I've ben playing it quite a bit and personally I love it, I played all of the other fallout games but only completed Fallout 3 + some of the DLC.Whoamus wrote:So now that those who bought have played this a while, how is it? Have been reading that the game has had much of the role playing taken out and it is more of a shooter and crafting game, would you agree? Still in no hurry to buy and considering buying Pillars of Eternity at next GOG sale for the role playing adventure it offers. I enjoyed Fallout 3 and New Vegas partly for the subject but also for the role playing choices, do I nuke Megaton or save it type of thing in 3.
For me 4 has a better story and lots of important decisions to make (I recently had to make a decision to ether rescue some Synths (human lookalike robots) or hand them in to the institute, you need to know the story to know how important this decision is and what consequences it could have.
These sort of decisions have to be made all of the time.
It dose still have a lot of the first person shooter as well but so did the last one and the gun crafting brings a new added bonus to the gameplay.
As for the building I haven't done much of that as yet but I'm stockpiling resources and hope to rebuild the castle at some point and make it the stronghold it used to be.
It goes without saying the graphics are better than the last one and the map is quit large too I'm also looking forward to the DLC and maybe trying some of the amazing mods now available.
If like me you liked the last one you wont be disappointed with this one.
