Fallout 4 is a fantastic Bethesda game, and here is why you won’t stop playing it when you dive into this post-apocalyptic world.
Rarely does a game capture my imagination through gripping storytelling like Fallout 4. I think back to the days of Final Fantasy 7, how absorbed I was with the game, and what would happen next. Now, a new generation has Fallout 4, and I’m wondering what a next-gen game should look, sound, and feel like. Let me explain with a story.
Why I Can’t Stop Playing Fallout 4
After settling into Fallout 4 (FO4)’s introduction and Settlement system, I started liberating towns and securing defenses. I couldn’t stop. It was so fun to think I was helping out the wasteland, and my results were starting to show all over the commonwealth. My actions affected the game at large, call this Role Play, but it was fascinating.
The next thing I knew, Freedom Radio broadcast a distress signal in one of my heavily fortified towns requesting Minutemen backup. This was my first time responding, and I was excited. I arrived at a clouding swarm of gunfire and super mutants ambushing us from all over. There was even a legendary mutant that I could barely put a dent in, and I eventually died over and over again.
I ultimately overcame this pillaging of my town by using tools I acquired earlier: a flare gun to call in backup from the Minutemen and a Smoke Grenade to rain down artillery fire while repairing gun turrets and sniping targets from afar.
This was my Christmas night, a present from the gaming world. FO4 has the most compelling storytelling to date, a robust crafting system, fun and engaging combat, and an excellent character development system. The hype is real surrounding this game, and I’m hooked.
