This is the game that got me back into gaming. I had taken a ‘break’ from gaming because it just ddin’t grasp my attention anymore, and I got busy with work anyways. Once the quarantine started, I picked this game up because I had heard good things. I immediately got sucked into it’s gripping story, and I have ADHD, and mostly play Battlefield type games, so that’s a feat. The story has multiple possible endings depending on decisions you make throughout the game. And a lot of the decisions are very emotionally taxing if you allow the game to immerse you. The story is twisty and turny and I became emotionally attached to some of the characters. Some are good, some are bad. All fit the story. There are different factions you can work with that create side missions, and also in turn they can assist you with the story. Different factions offer different benefits, such as weapons, armor, tech, etc. It even goes deep enough to allow you to choose who helps you with the story. The gameplay is smooth and well thought out, the map is massive, there are tons of weapons of different types with different pros and cons to each. Each weapon fits in at some point. Tons of different types of enemies, some of them are actually intimidating to fight. There is dynamic weather and day/night hours. Resources are the right amount of scarce to make the game tough but not annoying. I could go on and on about this game, but all in all you are missing out if you like single player shooting games but don’t play this.

It came out a long time ago and I just recently picked it up but I get why it won Game Of The Year. Classic RPG mechanics, open world and an intricate crafting system make this game hours of fun.

Fallout 4 is what a game should be

In every new piece of news that concerns Fallout 4 or the entire Bethesda series of games in general, there are people who constantly say the same thing — Fallout 4 is a failure of the series and the developers have completely departed from what the game should be. Some even believe that with all the additions to the game coming out, the creators are lost and no longer know what exactly their brainchild should be. Well, PCGamesN journalists have something to answer. nine0005

Bethesda knows exactly what Fallout 4 is. For many people, the problem is that the company has not created an RPG, although there is no mistake in this. On the contrary, Todd Howard and his team have created an open-world game that is essentially half immersive simulation, half Minecraft. I would like to believe that such a step was made intentionally. The game’s Steam synopsis doesn’t describe it as an RPG (it’s «next-gen open-world game»), and the emphasis on a different, more adult take on Minecraft’s ideas makes perfect sense in such a world. And both in order to interest people by releasing DLC, and to keep them in the game. nine0005

Fallout 4 has a clear common theme that makes it fit for a building sandbox title, and that is the theme of recovery. It can be traced in almost every main storyline of the game — you are a parent who is looking for a way to return the family. You are joining a man who wants to restore a sense of community among people in a world that itself cannot be restored. Every faction in the game wants to carve their way to a brighter future through the devastation left by the nuclear apocalypse. All this means that the main mechanics of Fallout 4 — resource gathering and crafting — are fully consistent with the main theme of the game. Few open world games have this. nine0005

When a theme like restoration dominates the direction Bethesda wants to take, creating an open-world RPG in the style of the classic Fallout just won’t work. You cannot just give the player the opportunity to go all out and do evil from right to left — this would be inappropriate in the context of the noble role of the parent and reformer. But while Fallout 4 limits personality development, there are many other gameplay options available to the player, such as the ability to be a shooter fanatic, stealthy, or like a tank, blowing everything around. All this is possible because instead of being just an RPG, Fallout 4 is an immersive simulation; this is a post-apocalyptic Deus Ex — all the same depth of lore, but with pre-planned paths instead of free character development. nine0005

If you’re a die-hard RPG fan, it’s easy to see why Fallout 4 disappointed you. But the game belongs to Bethesda, and they are the ones at the helm of this ship. They drastically changed the course of the series with the release of Fallout 3, and Fallout 4 is the next link in the evolution. Each new game takes players further and further away from Fallout 1 and 2, but that doesn’t make either game any worse. They are just different.

However, this link will not be remembered for tracking down a lost child. It will be remembered as the game that gave a new, meaningful purpose to digging through garbage heaps. The ashes of the old world can be collected and used to build castles, outposts, trading posts and forts instead of just being sold as junk to merchants. Behind the story and quests of Fallout 4 lies a whole box of toys for a budding engineer. Each new DLC pack adds even more elements to the mix, spurring on further experimentation and ambition. Of course, there’s Far Harbor, which was released to a large group of players who want more story, and yet the essence of Fallout 4 is building. nine0005

There is a well-founded claim that nothing built in Fallout 4 has a real impact on the world around — new settlements in no way revive the Wasteland around. Of course, this idea sounds very interesting, but it assumes that building various things is necessary to achieve a certain end result, and not to enjoy using the game’s construction mechanics. This is not SimCity, where there is an end result that is achieved by influencing the environment. It’s more like Sims, where the fun and fun lies in the process itself. nine0005

You just have to look at the obvious impact of Fallout 4 to understand that gamers love to do it all. Nothing you do in Minecraft affects the game world, while the game community thrives and basks in the glory of creating for the sake of creating. Fallout 4 is essentially a patch for a hole in the market, being a more «logical», realistic version of the building sandbox — all the same creativity, but with real materials that both make sense and look cool. In fact, the game can be called “Minecraft for adults”. nine0005

New DLC plans only to extend and expand this process. The new Vault-Tec Workshop, which allows you to create your own vault and experiment on its inhabitants, may not make much sense in the Fallout 4 lore and timeline, but it gives players a whole new toolkit and promises even more hours of fun creativity. If you’re even interested in crafting in Fallout 4, it’s hard to believe that you’ll pass up the opportunity to create the most iconic element of this world. nine0005

Creative sandboxes are also incredibly good for the player community. The video above shows off a great armor factory that was built using components from the Contraptions DLC. This is not only the result of painstaking work done with love and desire, but also a very successful video. “Wow, look at this cool thing that someone made in Fallout 4!”. All this leads to relevant groups, topics, topics, sub-reddits, and in case the community is fueled by new content, i.e. DLC, it is being strengthened and constantly growing. Of course, RPGs are good at sharing funny situations on Twitter, but nothing beats being able to show off your cool creation. nine0005

In general, the creative elements of Fallout 4 are free advertising for Bethesda. This is very clever and intentional.

While the modding community is making a huge contribution to the development of Fallout 4 in terms of building and settlements, it’s good to see that Bethesda hasn’t left this job entirely to the fans. This shows that the introduction of creative aspects to the game was done not just for show, to attract a large audience, but to support this audience with well-crafted, professional content. nine0005

Fallout 4 is not the game we expected. We wanted it to be a high end RPG. But many of us admire what she eventually became. This new direction for the series is not a bold, but interesting and well-executed step on a new path. Fallout 4 takes players through a compelling, albeit narrow-minded story, and then offers the opportunity to become part of a huge creative community. While some may not join due to their preferences, Bethesda can’t be blamed for the changes they’ve made. All this was no accident. The company has always been a developer who created something of his own, changed and discovered new ideas. Bethesda knows exactly what they’re doing with Fallout 4, and since the experiment was ultimately successful, they’re also very clear about where the series will go in the future. nine0005

REVIEW AND MINUTEMAN WALK: LEOGAMING

Could it be that you haven’t played Fallout 4 yet? Of course, if you are not an oldfag, offended by Bethesda for console dialogues or just not a fan
post-apocalypse, chances are you weren’t carried away by the Wasteland for
a month or two is extremely small.

But let’s be honest: after the euphoria
«burnt newfollych!» Caused by a bunch of trailers, screenshots and leaks of information about
Dog’s abilities, she came across
real gameplay and melted away as quickly as your XP after meeting with the Death Claw. By
by and large, out of the expected Action-RPG surgically removed all good
elements of RPG , leaving the “action” and the terribly primitive pumping system. And after a few hours of active
construction of fences, beds and furniture for rescued refugees
Concord, every more or less experienced player understands: “the plot is the bottom.” Two
the main factions — the Institute-Synth Creator and the Brotherhood «We-on-Airship» Steel —
reminiscent of the well-known dilemma about two chairs, and the Underground … it follows
tell separately, from Deacol’s jokes to the Battle of Bunker Hill. nine0075

Why the Minutemen?

For those who honestly played Fallout: New Vegas and didn’t
one hour suffered for a difficult choice — whether to hang degenerate plutocrats
on crosses, or to bring the benefits of democracy to the uneducated farmers of the Mojave —
Minutemen walkthrough might seem much prettier. And at all
not in vain, because the similarity with the “Yes Man path” and independent New Vegas is very
strong. In a word, if you are not drawn to flooding the Commonwealth with artificial people
or become “the new sheriff in town” by brandishing a minigun in front of
disagree, then we wrote the following paragraphs especially for you, dear friend.
We will try to explain as much as possible and without spoilers how in 50 game hours
(maybe less, if you don’t get distracted by communication and panoramic screenshots)
build the United States of the Minutemen: you can even with blackjack and
revolutionary songs. nine0005

You will have to build your faction from scratch, but this is also
the whole buzz: you make all the decisions and — this is one of the few successful parties
plots — they really affect the lives of game characters.

1-20
hours


Building a new world from
fragments of the old

Your “farming democracy” begins in Sanctuary Hills . After
the residents saved in Concord will thank your hero/heroine and start
dismantling the surviving property, talk to Preston Garvey. overdressed
the minuteman will appoint you a “general”, although for some reason he will give you
instructions. Prideful from such an increase, one must run on assignments —
protect a couple of small settlements from raiders, ghouls and other scum, for which
customs residents to join the young state. nine0075
On the ruins of the old house you will build a new one — isn’t it cool?

In the meantime, it’s time to practice crafting: Sanctuary stands far from the crowded places
enemies, and there are more than enough building materials in it. Enough with your head on the bed
plantation with vegetables, several water pumps
and even a couple of machine gun turrets and outposts. We, to everything
this, they surrounded our pre-war town with high fences from the walls, leaving only
one way out. It is very important to pump the “Local Leader” perk to the maximum, — this
will allow you to build your trading posts and create a “general warehouse”
building materials. nine0005

Recruiting beacons are the most important thing. Preston will say
you put them in place for new settlements, but you can also stick it in
Sanctuaries — people will quickly fall under the protection of the walls, and behind them pull themselves up
merchants. All this will require the investment of covers — for rare materials like copper,
glue, etc., so you still have to go through side quests. And free from
work of settlers at any location can be put on the supply line —
deliver to others what you have in abundance, improving the mood of the inhabitants. nine0005

Battle of Fort Independence

When the United States of the Minutemen (hereinafter referred to as USM) will rise
up to 5-6 viable villages, Preston will talk about the Castle — an old fortress,
once believed to be the Mother Base of the Minutemen’s main base, but taken over by an «unknown
a monster out of the water.» Our mission is to return
Castle, restore the operation of the radio station and declare to the entire Commonwealth «We
are back!»

It will not be easy to win the Castle back at early levels, because
you need to go there wearing a completely repaired Power Armor. We also recommend
Capture the «Fat Man» with 1-2 nuclear charges or a rocket launcher. On the way
to the ancient fort of the hero and his companion (if any) will be waiting
Preston Garvey with a few Minuteman recruits — they have fire in their eyes and
shoulder laser musket. Having pushed an encouraging speech, we order the soldiers
surround the building and rush into battle. We demolish the swamps and destroy the masonry with eggs,
after which you will have to deal with the angry Womb — a huge creature above
fortress walls. At this point, we get
«Main caliber» and smash the boss into crab sticks. Surviving Minutemen (if
there are) joyfully embrace the miraculously surviving limbs, clean the floors and
glorify the General — i.e. you, dear reader. nine0075
The castle can and should be upgraded, and we will tell you how. Here are a couple of options:



What should we rebuild the Fort

The castle is a very valuable location, and it needs to be better protected
the rest. Here is what you will need to do — then you will see why:

  • Build generators to turn on the radio station,
    restore water supply and establish food supply from the surrounding settlements;
  • Move some settlers to the Castle (up to 20
    people), distribute weapons, armor and beds to everyone, also set up guard posts for recruits; nine0048

  • «Patch» the holes in the walls as much as possible
    strong turrets, «Tesla traps» and so on.
  • Complete the quest « Old Guns «. If before him you belonged to your army of farmers
    not serious, then change your mind: in the Castle you will find a serious arsenal
    energy weapons, which the Brotherhood of Steel is already drooling over, as well as blueprints for artillery that can be installed in any settlement,
    ordering to bomb the enemy with special smoke bombs. Not bad, right? nine0048

    20-40
    hours

    If you have not
    paid attention to the storyline, now is the time. paint details
    it makes no sense, because the plot is designed in the spirit of modern blockbusters — at least
    intrigue, a maximum of predictable twists and turns. It will take a lot of time, because
    quests are quite long — many hours will be spent on a walker along the corridors and tasks in
    go get it style. There will be interesting moments, and a lot, but to delight
    the first two parts or the coherence of «New Vegas» is far away. nine0075
    General himself

    History is history, but you are a general after all —
    subordinates require help, advice, control, and the SSHM needs to be expanded. Preston
    will issue tasks for the construction of new settlements, and Radio Liberty sometimes
    will order to flee to the settlement and protect it from raiders, ghouls,
    super mutants, radscorpions and other hostile creatures. Better hit right away
    pockets with gears and make more turrets: the higher the protection, the lower
    attack probability. nine0005

    You can destroy enemies not only with the help of artillery — in
    The General has a flare gun at his disposal. Let this one go, and through
    in a minute or two, up to half a dozen militiamen in hats and with muskets will run to the place.
    Let them attack — do not do the same job for the whole army!

    Everything for victory!

    The Minutemen ending is possible with such plot
    cornering:

  • We kill Kellogg, we admire the airship «Pridwen»
    along with a bunch of people from the Brotherhood of Steel. We shoot down their rotorcraft, often flying
    over the Castle — for not fig; nine0048

  • We make friends with the Underground for weapons and armor, but
    only until the quest «Battle for Bunker Hill»!
  • Asking Sturges for help infiltrating the Institute
    and at his request, download their database from any computer;
  • Defending the Castle — for this it was necessary to build
    defense. The battle will be hard, but
    half of the synths can be killed by artillery even on the outskirts.
  • Infiltrate Institute again, but now lead
    with the Minutemen. With fights we break through to the reactor, we install on it
    impulse charge (don’t forget to save the scientists!), roll up and blow up to everyone
    hell; nine0075
    The aged son is clearly unhappy that his father blew up his laboratory:
  • 40-50
    hours


    War of Independence

    Hooray — the evil Institute is destroyed, and people can not be afraid,
    that they will be kidnapped and replaced with soulless servo doubles! interests
    rapidly developing SSHM now threatens only Brotherhood of Steel (BS), planted
    at the old airport. Those who like to read the military charter and clean up the Force
    Armor (although we know they love toasters, hehe) that rob your crops
    farmers and poking their noses everywhere must be expelled once and for all
    Commonwealth! nine0005

    The main thing is preparation. Build artillery in at least 5
    settlements, stock up on stimulants,
    get X-01 Power Armor and a bigger gun. Each defender of the Castle must have
    good weapons and armor. Maybe even power. After that, you can safely run
    to their Brotherhood base and massacre the guards. We are waiting for the mark “BS
    hostile” — and run away to the Castle.

    Rather
    — we make a tactical retreat, where we receive the final quest from the faithful
    Preston Garvey. We give the order to the radio operator to open fire on the Prydwen. From all
    guns! nine0075
    Brotherhood Elder Arthur Maxson realized that it was better not to joke with the guys from Boston!

    This is truly an amazing sight — except that the BS elder
    in anger! Probably a shame — to get brainwashed by yesterday’s farmers. In any
    case, about a dozen rotorcraft will fly to the Castle — each of them will
    water the fortress with a machine gun and land those clad in Power Armor
    paladins. The battle will be very difficult, it is better to shoot down enemy aircraft on approach,
    so as not to lose the entire garrison. When will the smoke of war clear, Radio Liberty
    will trumpet the victory over the invaders from the Brotherhood. nine0005

    Epilogue

    not completed earlier: decide the fate of the city Alliance (Covenant ), stir up an affair with a companion,
    paint wall Diamond City green, find Atomic Cats that will make
    high-quality and inexpensive tuning of Power Armor in the style of NFS Underground. Arrange a safari
    radscorpions and deathclaws in the Luminous Sea. Walk the streets of Salem.
    Build the highest tower so you can see the whole map. In a word, enjoy
    all the delights of the sandbox mode! nine0075 Despite the wave of criticism, the graphics in the game are pleasing if you dig into the optimization:

    will enter Diamond City — not as an invader, but as a liberator.
