Had Fallout 4 come out just after Skyrim, would we hate it so much? Is it any more flawed than the existing Bethesda hits? Or did games improve and clean house in certain ways that Bethesda wasn't prepared for, and thus our modern tastes just couldn't even pretend to be interested in the stagnant design and tech at Bethesda?The answer is both. Boy does Fallout 4 suck. Skyrim is aging but damn is that remaster a blast and selling beautifully because the game is so good in terms of high freedom and customization. Skyrim is one of the best received games of all time and it deserved it.You know what, let me lean toward thinking Fallout 4 just sucks. The world has no iconic landmarks like the other Fallout games (sorry Boston GAF) and that dialogue was horrendous. And yes, the PBR made the game look like 3D printing. I honestly regret playing Fallout 4 despite some occasional redeeming atmosphere in some of the forests. It just doesn't have the cultural charm that the last gen Fallout games had at all, and the world feels so bland.It seems Bethesda is aware we think the dialogue system was bullshit and that it's huge bullshit one of the most money-making studios in gaming history is clearly not investing it in getting away from Gamebryo, so here's to whatever their next project is that they've confirmed won't be Elder Scrolls or Fallout for a changeEDIT: God famine this thread was sad http://m.neogaf.com/showthread.php?t=1172426
