25th

Looks good

No multiplayer so it's all about the single player mode.

Liked fallout 3 and don't mind 4 although the graphics lag for the Gen. Fallout New Vegas was my favorite though and it's from those guys

Surprised this isn't getting more buzz on this board. Fallout 4 has a massive thread and this is probably going to be a better game

to me a single player game is like being the only member of a forum...

I loved multiplayer back in the arcade days. I was in my teens and early 20s and a new fighting game came out every month. Arcades died and all of us bought Dreamcasts and eventually ps2, xboxes or gamecubes. Then we all grew up.

Those are always going to be my best days of gaming.

I pretty much play single-player exclusively with a few exceptions. Very little innovation in multiplayer games if you've been playing them for a few years. Even with all of the gameplay improvements in Borderlands 3, for example, its still pretty much the same game.

If my friends get together, we play board games. Those have come a long way in the past ten years.

I didnt frequent arcades (once in a blue moon when going to a movie we would stop off at the arcade first but rarely), i always had game systems starting with atari then the nintendo and sega genesis then super nintendo and so on i didnt get into multi player (which meant having friends over) until golden eye on 64 then online multi player with Halo 2 on the OG xbox. Those were indeed the days :D but now i cant stand gaming alone, unless i am building something for the kids on minecraft but lately they've gotten a lot better at building and ask me to do less.

It very hilariously has an 85 on metacritic. I wonder if they'll get their bonuses....

Only knock I'm hearing is it isn't super open...mildly linear for a sandbox game and kind of easy.

Like I said the big knock for me on fallout 4 is the graphics aren't really next gen it's like they started working on it seven years ago and kinda bumped up the graphics a little.

This game looks great

I listened to most of Skill Ups review and it sounds like a 9/10. The one complaint he had was that he had to put the difficulty to Supernova or else he felt like he could easily break the leveling system.

It's a solid game. I come back to it here and there. Will take me a while to beat it but it's a no brainer if you have gamepass

its basically a fallout game right? I know this team made fallout new vegas but due to obvious copy writing they cant use that title but instead made their own version of it is kind of my expectation?

Put in a good 20 hours into the game and I am not really a fan. The whole thing seems a bit cartoonish to me I am not a fan of the space suits and laser beam guns, some of the NPCs/enemies look ridiculous. Instead of doing 9 different worlds with small maps they should have made maybe 4 or 5 with bigger maps. I think its an alright game for its first release and something inbetween now and the next fallout game which will be like 2022 its an alright filler.
