An Impressive Yet Flawed Mod Experience
To start with, it is absolutely amazing that this exists, and is as complete and playable as it is for free. For that reason alone, I hesitate to criticize it too harshly. Unfortunately, there are enough issues that prevent it from fully living up to the hype. I started with a clean install. In 40 hours. I completed the main quest, and some sidequests I only experienced a few crashes. I did experience many game-breaking bugs that required console commands to progress. The default lighting settings are excessively dark. Several locations were unplayable even with the torch, unless I tweaked the settings. Lots of amazing locations, highly detailed (and I assume accurate to real life), but navigating to and within them is a pain, Entrances can be a dozen steps away, but require significant detours. Storyline and quests are generally good, but many quests could be streamlined to minimize loading and backtracking. Gameplay is difficult, with overly large mobs of enemies. Almost too many characters and factions, delving into the unique aspects of each group was obstuse. The settlements, while located in great locations, are all broken. Most disappointingly, despite Team FOLON's claims of inclusiveness, it feels as though the female PC was not thoroughly tested. There are numerous instances where the PC (and another significant character) is referred to using male pronouns. I believe these flaws stem from a "quantity over quality" problem. The unifying elements of the mod needed more love. It is evident that everyone worked hard on their contributions, but some content could have been set aside to better focus on a more coherent final product. Ultimately, I had an entertaining experience with this mod, even if it didn't live up to my expectations set by the initial tease in 2022. It is certainly worth playing for any Fallout fan, and I could see myself revisiting it in the future. I hope that with a little more time and care, it will shine the way it deserves.
