hmm I have some games to finish up but I need to play this after
Do it breh you know I wouldn't steer you wrong
Honestly the criticism for this game is definitely overblown I've never seen a game with an 88 metacritic score get hated on so much until I saw how people felt in the Arcadium
I'd agree that it was lighter than the other games as far as the cities/settlements but I was actually a huge fan of the base building in this, especially with mods. shyt added hundreds of hours to the game for me on the creative tip
Gameplay and combat is much sharper than the previous games too. Main story isn't groundbreakingly good but it does its job and you'll have your input on the world and different outcomes. A lot of the side quests are awesome too.
Mods on console was/is a gamechanger and pretty much allows you to play the game however you want plus you have a slew of extra content there as well
Like I said I know it's not the "perfect" game for everybody but personally I played FO4 far more than any other game in the last 10 years
