KLEO and Curie are the only good things they’ve added since.
Can you believe those dinguses put recoil on laser rifles?
Sim Settlements is one of best things in FO4 and Bethesda had no hand in it.
I blame the Fortnite crowd. (Of which I am sadly a member).
I blame Bioware for the choice wheel.
The choices in Fallout 4 are like if the designer had just heard in passing that games like Mass Effect had a choice wheel. The only detail they successfully copied was not having the dialogue always match the option you chose. Bioware games gave you more options (6 in this screenshot of Mass Effect I’m looking at), wasn’t as clunky to use, and the options weren’t as transparently meaningless.
Just finished the LE Trilogy, and the wheel also gave you lots and lots of extra dialogue that you could either dismiss entirely, or would unlock some extra choices on the “main” wheel. It can even change some of the original choices to new ones! Space Opera indeed. :)
Sacrilegious take but I think the world in Fallout should be mostly green and overgrown. It’s been 200 years.
Shouldn’t stop them from having writing in their games.
