Is Fallout 4 any good?
Is Fallout 4 any good?
This video is about 10 minutes long and covers a specific topic.
My 16-hour impressions are quite similar to Skyrim with added weapons and extra gear. This isn't a completely positive or negative take, just a straightforward description.
1) It resembles a Skyrim conversion mod, especially when it runs smoothly at 2–3 minutes and 40 seconds in busy zones.
2) The game handles ammo well—30s to 40s in packed areas, 60s when not under pressure.
3) Ammo is plentiful compared to Fallout 3, which had a noticeable shortage; it feels more fun to play with a weapon early on.
4) Like Skyrim, this version is quite streamlined. It lacks detailed stats and skills, focusing mainly on basic abilities. This could be a drawback for some players.
5) Crafting appears decent so far, but it seems they shifted from limited ammo to relying more on duct tape and fast fixes. I haven’t tried the vegetable starch recipe yet—just settling for duct tape and screws.
The central plot or main quest is quite weak, especially around the 10-hour mark, though the side missions are enjoyable. Knowing you've played FO3 makes it feel more like outdated content rather than a fresh experience.
I'm here with plenty of Quest open and lots of locations to discover. Yet my speed is quite slow. I take the time to check each street and every nook. I visit each building and observe every desk.
