Fallout 4 is a good game, but playing it right after Fallout 3 and New Vegas did not do it any favors at all. It feels like an extremely diluted version of those games, with extra gameplay systems tacked on that I personally do not care for at all, like settlement building. Aside from the world and the gunplay, it feels like everything in the game is just…an inferior version of what was found in the other games. The new dialogue system is awful, the companions aren’t as interesting, the mission design is even more flawed, the story is an even bigger disaster, etc. I enjoyed the game at launch and I still do, but I now understand what all the fuss is about.
