A mediocre game and no CC this time?
So Skyrim Special Edition came to GOG. Good. It also came with the Anniversary Edition upgrade (or a standalone AE version, depending on what you wanna get), which gave you all the CC content. Fallout 4 also has CC content, but unlike Skyrim, the GOG version doesn't let you get it, and GOG itself suggests getting mods instead. Now sure, F4's CC content is rubbish compared to Skyrim's, and there are actually fewer Creations at that, but it's still funny that Skyrim gets both AE and the AE upgrade options, whereas F4 gets a suggestion that you should get mods. It's also cheaper than Skyrim, I'm guessing for this reason. As to the game itself, at the top of the page we have a banner with various gaming media outlets praising it to heaven and back. Don't trust gaming journalists: Fallout 4 is hot garbage. Yes, the character creator is better than in Skyrim, but the armour is ugly; the guns just look stupid and are underpowered; a lot of animations were lazily recycled; the main plot is boring and predictable; the factions don't make sense; the Boston area has framerate drops; the crafting is tedious; and in spite of giving the protagonists slightly different backgrounds, they play absolutely the same, so it's just a matter of whose rump you wanna watch for hours, and whose voice you wanna listen to, because all conversations are voiced, and you can't even change the voice pitches. Couple all of this with Bethesda's "famous" approach to player choices (that is, they don't really exist), and you know what you've got. Then again, maybe the praising banner was put there ironically? This game could have been good, it's got seemingly all the right components, I could even forgive the lame aesthetic choices (even though it feels cartoony as heck), but alas, it missed the mark by 1.60934 kilometres. I only rated it 2/5 because it's DRM-free. Thanks, Todd! Another settlement needs our help, indeed.
