The game is kinda meh from what I've seen? Any positive impressions?

[-] ryepunk@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago

The most positive I've heard is that it is a by the numbers Bethesda rpg game. It doesn't try to be anything more. If you liked fallout 4 and skyrim odds are you'll like this.

What if I liked FO3 and New Vegas and hated FO4?

Then you have good taste in games.

Nobody's perfect.

Then you are objectively right

FO3 was kind of a disaster in terms of narrative and roleplay. And the established world building.

Then wait a few months and check some of the in-depth reviews before investing your time. Bethesda's most well known for its looter shooters with RPG styling.

I imagine this will follow in similar footsteps. It'll be well designed, well armed, but it's not going to be an RPG where your decisions have lasting impact. But hopefully I'm wrong

They got rid of the dialogue wheel and went back to a list of options (influenced by character background / skills), so at least there's that, I suppose.

I’ve heard nothing but good things about gameplay. But it runs like shit on most systems. A RTX 3080 at 1440p ultra can’t get 60 fps in cities.

Still downloading for me, but I see more than one review saying it takes a long time to get good. I'm keeping my expectations low.

EDIT: Glad I was warned it starts slow. It does get better if you stick with it.

EDIT 2: It entertained me for a week. It's no Skyrim, or even Fallout. I would have been pissed if I'd paid for it.
