It is okay, not Bad. Storyline is eeh.
First the engine is Awesome, really speaks to what in my opinion Fallout 3, N.Vegas & 4 should have been. The ability to pan, angle, move and zoom your camera is great really allows for you look around your environment easily and accurately. The graphics quality is good and doesn't look like stacks of blocks or blobby. Sound is also good quality and the music selections help to add to the ambience. The "Paper Doll" of the character is lacking in the Inventory screen (but you can see your character in the world) and the Inventory Slots on the character in comparison to modern games are a little low. More then what is in the original Fallout 1 & 2 if you have played them. The crafting portion is interesting and provides a way to get better equipment without having to steal from or murder everybody you come across. Kind of gives a reason to scavenge and adds to the environment when you can create your gear from the past civilizations remains. The economy is so-so there could be some better ways to sell your gear a little more quickly and reduce the "Grindiness" of killing some bandits then hoping to come across a Caravan that actually has stuff worth trading for or money. The Story, characters and your effect in the world as you play is really limited, you gain very little connection to the world as you adventure, the mission seems a little run of the mill and questionable. The characters you come across are very plain and uninspiring, I had no real desire to interact with them except that is what your supposed to do in the game and you want to sell stuff. Helping them or hurting them doesn't really matter in the process of the game. The combat is really one-sided in the beginning so you or you companion if you do pick one up will die over and over. Which isn't always bad just tedious right in the beginning of the game, especially due to a power imbalance versus superior tactics. Overall it worth the buy to encourage more, but it is middle of the road.
Is this helpful to you?
