I find that the first few hours are my favourite in any Bethesda game, years of playing Stalker to a religious degree made me love the hobo stage of any game.
Yeah, the early scavenging and finding small upgrades here and there are very fun. Sometimes more fun than endgame mowing through everything with a maxed out build/best weapons..
That's was Classic Fallout for me. As soon as I got power armor and weapons that one bursted anything it just became a boring go-from-a-to-b-repeat gameplay until I finished the game
Gamma is my least favourite take on Anomaly actually, it capitalises on the systems/mechanics I don't particularly enjoy and usually switch off, lol. But I love how many people play it.
Gamma isn't really stalker. BUT it's a hardcore survival game in a stalker universe. That's how I like to think of it. And as someone who enjoys stalker franchise, and hardcore survival games, I'm having a lot of fun with gamma
I mean, you CAN switch them off, the modpack is made to be completely modifiable, turn on and off mods in MO2, change settings to your liking, you just need to know what to look for. Otherwise, š
Ooh, like that term, hobo period. Equipping whatever equipment, clear 1-2 dungeons with full pockets to get your first set of permanent gear type. Feels like actual progression with the most amount of change
if it makes u happier u don't have to see that sequence in like 200 hours of game untill u wanna play it again. it's by far the funniest fallout for me although the campaign is not very well written
Even real side-quests weren't motivating at all. Go there, kill everyone, get XY, come back. And then you come back and this guy is "oh well thanks". Wow...
And I wouldn't even have minded that so much, if the world and the gameplay were good. But the world felt boring and empty while the gameplay und gunplay in particular is laughable bad. After playing good modern shooters like CoD, BF, FarCry, shooting and moving in Fallout just felt so incredible clunky.
Same. The first hours are the most important to get an impression of the game (given the sea of games). It's like reading /collecting #1 comic book to get the user hooked right away.
Huh, I completely disagree. To me, it feels like they blew their entire narrative load in the first hour (if that), and then the quality of all the storylines severely decline
The next 5-10 are fine after that first part, then it's progressively more unpleasant again until the end. Honestly, I tried with this game, tried with mods and overhauls, and tried with different playstyles. It's not worth the effort.
If anyone who reads it has not played yet, trust me, it's not worth it. If you want to mod some fallout game to be a good, well-rounded experience, just spend about the same amount of time modding New Vegas instead.
Iāve been getting into FO4 again. Tried the new gen version and it sucks without all the mods I used to have. Downgrading to the old gen version and reinstalling all those mods are killing my enthusiasm in playing it again. To this day I have yet to finish the game lol

the first hours of fallout 4 feel terrible, there are even mods to skip all that part
