It's a good game and if you are into open world rpgs I highly recommend it. If you are more casual and just want to play the story and not explore I'd pass. The story and all that aren't bad, but the game does constantly remind you its made by Bethesda. That means real clunky combat(though better than skyrim) lots of bugs/crashing, and ugly poorly animated characters. If you aren't willing to put in the time and get all the rewards for all the headaches its an average shooter at best.
