It’s all relative too. Even if FO4 is a decent game, I don’t think many would argue against the idea that it is objectively less good than the earlier Fallout titles. Just like Skyrim was better than Oblivion. Just like Starfield was not up to par with any earlier Bethesda release, despite the ambition.
It doesn’t mean any of them are bad games, but the relative pattern / trajectory of Bethesda is plain to see.
The gunplay was better, the graphics were better, and the animations. Downsides? Voiced protag, bugs (as per usual) weak main story (and a lot of sidequests were weak as well), and factions sucked so much.
Very good to hear tbh. Maybe Bethesda can make games again?
They havent made a good game in over a decade
I dont have high hopes
F03 was almost twenty years ago, and we all know NV was outsourced.
It’s honestly just like 90% schadenfreude for me with this headline because what the fuck have these people been doing for so long??
Chiming in to defend FO4. I have nearly 7000 hours in that game, thanks in no small part to mods.
Even FO4 has been over a decade.

Ugh. I found 4 to be the worst of the first-person SPs.
I agree.
