Goodbye life. Goodbye family. Goodbye Destiny. Goodbye Halo. Goodbye life.
- From my 25 hours play-though, I give this 8/10 so far. Nearly a 9.
I will do update edits on how the game is. But i'm sure it'll be amazing. I will also try and answer all post questions. Fire away!
UPDATE 1: I'm back!
- Everyone talks about graphics. They are a little behind BUT only on the faces. Still however the game is beautiful. As the sun sets and rises the light looks incredible. 8/10 for graphics.
- The beginning is fantastic. Instantly you're put into this world and you feel part of it. There's no feeling forced to do anything. Just like Fallout 3, it's up to you what you do and how you do it. Also the story here GRABS you! You'll all find out soon.
- The way characters speak to you and engage with you is great. I want to punch some people in the face already! Putting your name in at the start of the game is a good addition, as everyone calls me 'Matt!'
- Gun play is a lot of fun, pistol is surprisingly strong. Ghouls are -blam!-ing terrifying!! Prepare to die a lot. They get up super fast and just jump you.
- Haven't come against a Deathclaw on foot yet. I don't want to! (You do fight one at the start in the big suit however. But it was easy.)
- Map size is extensive. You can go anywhere you see and any door leads to somewhere amazing. Get loot hunting! Still feels as amazing as savaging in F3.
- Creating your own settlement is a lot of fun but highly addictive! Out of the 5hr+ play time, I spent 1hr+ just clearing out a house for my people and making it look nice. Beds to sleep on. Water pumps. Food gardens. Towers with guns for protection. What's great about this is when you find a tree, you can dismantle it and it gives you 'wood' that wood can then be used on anything from a chair to a guard tower. This is the same for cars, kitchens, post boxes, tires, fences etc etc.
*** UPDATE 2 ***
- 9hrs went in today. I'm typing on my phone so this'll be brief.
- The story finally kicked into gear when moving to Fenway park (the Fallout 3 equivalent of Magaton.) it's really good. Characters are all prefect.
- Lots of new enemies face to face. Died a lot. Legendary enemies re charge health which catches you off guard!
- Gunplay is even better now, after getting used to it. Firing from the hip works.

To everyone who thinks the ending was spoiled to them in where [spoiler]your son has to be killed[/spoiler], Todd Howard has confirmed this is fake and there is no reason to worry if it was spoiled! Make sure to blackout social media until the tenth still, for your own safety

You my friend, are a lucky b@st@rd!
-
So who's up at midnight then? I'll say this game will drain you're night away. My friend came over on the weekend and put 6hrs in straight away.
-
It's only 25gb...?
-
What you like better Witcher 3 (if you played it) or Fallout 4 ?
-
It wont beat skyrim.
-
I would care of it was actually fun, it's just Fallout, I can wait till tonight to play, I don't have to play it now
-
Keep your eyes on your Geiger Counter, OP. "Tick-tick-tickity" means "run your ass outta there", and pop some RadAway for good measure.

-Clears throat- [spoiler]Are there customizable [b][i]SWOOOOORDS and Flamethrowers?[/i][/b][/spoiler]

Nice man! Pumps me up! Took off work Tuesday so I can play from 11pm Monday till whenever I pass out Tuesday.
-
So is it similar to past Fallouts where you obtain quests from NPCs and you keep them in a log? Also, is there still a karma system?
-
I hope it isn't cartoonish like a video game.
-
Stop talking about story endings
-
Does anyone know if there will be a picture pack for our profiles?
-
DAY 2: Just put 9hrs in and I'm exhausted. Lots to say! Wish I could do a video about it all.
-
Do NPCs call you by your characters name? I doubt it but that would be cool if they did
-
Haha.. hahaha... You do realize the second you start that up that Microsoft can actually see you playing the game early and could potentially trace you through your consoles MAC adress and could sue you for owning something that is unreleased like that..? It's a stupid huge fine plus possible jail time if caught

3 4 3 6 5 3 4 To charm them ladies ;)
-
Question, is the settlement building a big aspect of the game? That's my one worry that's it's going to be minecraft with guns
-
So should I get fallout 4 If I've never played a fallout game before
-
Some super mutants carry a bomb and run toward you! Just found out the hard way
-
How'd u get it?

Those pics were clearly photo shopped
