Yes, i do realize the irony of saying this is fallout content while i have Ghostrunner footage in the background. I meant fallout content in topic, mkay?
The main problem with Fallout 4 is the devastating effect it had on the franchise. It's the same what Skyrim did to Elder Scrolls series. Dumbing down got solidified due to the onslaught of casuals that were willing to pay money for being given a shitty RPG that had "a lot of fun shooting and building". From my experience, it's much more fun to use mods like Wasteland Defense or RTS in New Vegas, if you want to build a base. The reason for its superiority is that it makes the game being 95% of great world and storytelling and 5% of fun crafting. Fallout 4 is an abomination for flipping that split upside down.
Bethesda will sacrifice logic and common sense in the altar of "cool gameplay stuff" every time, this is why i dont have high hopes for Starfield. Here is some stuff the leads mainly Todd Howard and Emil Pagliarulo have said about how they make games and i paraphrase for the sake of time: "Skyrims theme is Dragons" "Our designers are our witters" "You press button, cool stuff happens" "Skip, Skip, Skip, Skip, cool this is who i need to kill" (for dialogue) "Keep it simple, stupid" (which is only good for code) ...and more if you read and listen or watch interviews. The sooner people realize it wont get any better the sooner they can finally move on to better games.
IT's because they ad-lib, but don't have a fraction of the talent to actually pull it off. Emil even said something like "90% of our design documents were obsolete" in his 'Talks From Story' presentation. They make shit up as they go and they wind up making shit games because of it.
What made you think that this is a hot Take? I would say that Fallout 4 is even the less true Fallout game when it comes to the Story. Only having a the option to play as a Charakter that has a kid is annoying as fuck. It is Impossible to Play a evil Charakter in 4. It is "just" very very hard to play as a evil Charakter in 3 that isn't completely insane. (At bethesda Not only effort is a bad Word but also having a evil option that isn't staight up cartoon style evil)
I agree gameplay wise, but aesthetically i could see how fallout 4 is more fallout than 3. 4 has too much retro futurism, but i think it not looking like a pile of rubble gets alot of points with people.
I enjoy fallout 4 quite a bit (as well as the amazing mods by the community) but I do think you bring up some pretty good points, hope that doesn't make me a bethesda fanboy lol XD
You did not even mention the inevitable Crashes, and how Bethesda's "update" made it worse, every time, But other than that I agree with everything you said. Whenever I think about playing it, I feel my IQ drop, then I come to my senses and realise I'm never going to play that Stupid Mind F**k ever again.
While I'll admit that I personally like Fallout 4 (especially the power armor, the power armor's dope), and there are some things here and there that I disagree with, this was a great video. The first point especially is something that I'm really happy you highlighted. Fallout 4 is supposed to be this super sad game about waking up to a dead, hostile husk of the world you once knew, yet it never at any point feels like that. The game never feels desolate or hopeless, in fact it's frequently quite the opposite, ESPECIALLY if you side with the Minutemen.
I played it once vanilla, then uninstalled it.Then I reinstalled it with loads of mods a few times then uninstalled it again!!By the way if you think Todd doesn't hate New Vegas,why doesn't the fallout TV show focus on the east coast following on from fallout 3?
the main thing that breaks all Bethesda Fallout games isn't the bad main story or the constant radiant quests or even how they retcon the brotherhood into every game it's something that MATN gave so much praise over that being the "junk system" or more to the point the fact that after 200 years there's still any damn junk / scrap or ANYTHING in the pre-war buildings you are able to take and use. it isn't 2 years or even 20 years since the Great war its 200 so how can there be pre war food/ junk/ scrap metal and ammo in buildings and how haven't people turned them into homes/ settlements or businesses. pipe weapons might be crappy but at least people have tried to make something
I think fallout 4 is fun. But not a good fallout game it's an alright game that's just mindless fun but as a fallout game it's horrid. the main story is so bad I want to gouge my eyes out. As long as you don't think about the game beyond surface level it's fun maybe even good but as soon as you think about the game any deeper than than , gun scope i shall add make faraway enemie look like he close, it just falls flat on its forehead and gets an epileptic seizure than put into a coma for good. Honestly quite incredible
I would hazard that Elder Maxon has to have the attitude he has towards Dance due to his established hardline against synts, as that's why they are there in the first place. Now that's glossing over the "How did they know about the synts in the first place and know enough about them to warrent a large scale military mobilization to the Commonwealth" issue. But still, the argument stands.. Barely.. Trash collected and presented.
It is kind of ironic that the small amount of Kelloggs back story would have been more interesting the the base games story I mean modders made the game interesting you can't beat a macho claws
The story is perhaps the weakest thing about the game. I will add to the weapons argument: The design of some of the weapon designs and choices are outright awful. What the game considers an assault rifle, which it clearly isn't, looks like a stubby little Vickers Machine Gun with poor design choicrs. The Combat Rifle shouldn't be using .45 ammo and looks utterly boring. The minigun is a peashooter (which I get is for balancing purposes, but they could have replaced with an LMG or something to make more sense). The hunting rifle really shouldn't have a .50 caliber option and should've been it's own weapon. The unique weapons in-game are not unique as there is a chance that the same weapon with the same modifiers can appear. The Far Harbor and Nuka World DLC are the best thing about it, as far as story is concerned especially compared to the main game. But the Nuka World gimmick of being a raider boss in the Commonwelath makes absolutely no sense unless you bypassed the Minutemen for a significant chunk of the game. pretty much asks you to raid your own settlement that you made.
The 10mm pistol in 4 is about as big and long as two desert Eagles... And it is a mag feeding pistol with a component that looks like the cylinder of a Revolver. WTF It assaults your eyes by being one of the ugliest items to be ever put into a video Game.
@@antjeeismann4684 Fallout 4's 10mm pistol only holds twelve rounds too. Many real life 10mm guns have 15 round magazines and none of those are big enough to be used as an anchor.
@@EnclaveEmily Yeah I think it's in an alpha build right now. You can play it... I think. There's gameplay videos of it but from what I saw they have a long way to go.
I have only 4 minutes left of the Video... Since you haven't mentioned it yet i will say it: Fallout 4s gun Design is horrible, it is so obvious that they do not have a single Person in their Team that knows the basics of how guns Work. This was also a problem in 3 but to a way way milder extend... For an example you just have to look at the 10mm pistol in 3 vs the 10mm pistol in 4. The pistol in 3 looks just a bit unrealistic cuz it would be awfully annoying to carry Something this clunky(i'm Not even talking about concealed carry). I guess that Back the they at least somewhat understood what function which component has... In Fallout 4 the 10mm pistol is half as long as the players Leg Diz iz insanity🤪 (There is a Mod that reduces it's size by 1/4. This still makes it a recognizable amout bigger than a desert Eagle) It looks like the result of a inc3stious threes0me between a taurus judge, Something that a one handed m3thhead build to uninstall hookers with and a plastic c96 that broke in half and got glued back together.... Bethesda designed a mag feeding pistol that viewed from the side looks like it has a cylinder from a Revolver... Let that sink in.
Somebody actually made several videos getting into a lot of the issues with Fallout 4's weapons design. Like how one of the scrap guns has a magazine that has no way of actually getting bullets into the chamber or the heinous monstrosity that is the "assault rifle". The one thing I noticed that he missed was how the character spins the revolvers cylinder every time it's un-holstered. If the cylinder spins freely while it's closed, that means the gun is broken and should not be used. th-cam.com/video/euxqddvNa-E/w-d-xo.html
Would be interesting to talk about the whole deal i found in the last few months of the expropriation of Fallout New Vegas is a definition of being trans for "the trans community"
@@EnclaveEmily in the last few months i have saw some memes circulating about the statement if you play x thing you're trans and you should support it. Something i have more confusion than anything.
every time i try to play fallout4 i get out of the vault and uninstall. i just cant play the bland fetch quests. it just makes me so mad that this is what we got thanks todd

I'm glad you did not use Fallout Content, because I never want to see that Garbage ever again, its back to New Vegas for me.
Their is one mod that can really help this game tapes from the common wealth there's more substance story and just that one mod versus the game
You could've played one of the three good Fallout games, but it's more sensible than forcing yourself to play Bethesda's nonsense just for footage.
@@Mirthful_Midori no that makes to much Sense and you can't have sense when discussing fallout 4 or 76

This is gonna probably be a hot take, but Fallout 3 feels more like Fallout than Fallout 4. Least that game had SKILLS.

Agreed.

True
I hate fallout 4, and i cant understand how it sold so much. Maybe because it came out after skyrim

I hear Fallout 4 is just paid bloatware thanks to the creation club's updates anyway, I think you're doing yourself and your computer a favor.
The only good thing to come out of fallout 4 is the new vegas remake that's in the works. I just hope they don't fuck it up.
Is that confirmed?
