Dyinglegacy 11/02/18 8:49:23 AM #1:	I just played the beta yesterday for about 5-6 hours and I actually found it enjoyable. It's... fallout. I was afraid that is was going to be Ark: Post apocalypse edition, but it's totally not. If you had the fear that it was going to be just a survival game, you can rest your worries, because it's not. The game has survival elements, but that's not all it is. During much of my session, I actually forgot that it was online. Exploring interior cells, getting side tracked by a structure out in the wilderness, getting shot at by super mutants... Most everything I experienced felt like your classic first person fallout. There's even a main story quest line, and plenty of side quests. The biggest difference between this game and single player fallout games is the lack of human NPCs. However, given the context of the game, it kind of makes sense. The game world takes place only 25 years after the bombs dropped, so human settlers haven't had enough time to start rebuilding society in a meaningful way. This is actually the premise behind the main quest line. You're tasked with jump starting society again. Your first task is to find the overseer of vault 76, who left the vault first. You're suppose to track her down, and on your way you find holotapes that she's left behind, discussing a small pack of survivors who call themselves the responders (they remind me of an early version of the minute men). The story branches out from there. The game puts emphasis on the exploration aspect of fallout, which was always my favorite part of the series. I would get lost for hours just exploring buildings, finding loot and killing ferals. If you're Fallout junkie who finds the most enjoyment from shootin' lootin' and explorin', then I think you'll like it. If dialog wheels was your thing, then you might want to keep looking. --- Voted worst user on CE 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017 Current e-argument streak: 0 wins. 25408 losses. <cite>Dyinglegacy posted [p:911657504] in Unpopular ...

asagi_mode_gone 11/02/18 8:52:10 AM #6:	I WISH it had been ark with radiation Inventory management is simplified when you realize every train Depot has a "everything in here can be picked up elsewhere" chest and you can toss all your junk in there, making it so dying has no penalty besides the caps lost. Easy lazy exp from crafting, so of course I've done junk runs already just to craft tons of throwing knives.

Dyinglegacy 11/02/18 12:07:05 PM #18:	It's pretty much exactly what I said it was in the OP. Heavy emphasis on exploration and looting. No dialog wheels. It's still Fallout, in the sense that it doesn't play like another game, which was my biggest worry. When it was first announced, I was expecting fallout minecraft or some shit. Exploration in fallout/elder scrolls has always been my jam. I would completely ignore story, and just explore the countryside. The story was just distraction for me. If you're like me in the sense that you value wondering around and looting, then you'll love it. It's still got a bit of story for those who like that kind of thing. The biggest draw for me, aside from exploration, is the coop. Many times I've been wondering aimlessly, exploring interior cells in fallout and thought to myself "it would be kinda cool if I could actually have another player here with me.". I got what I wanted. --- Voted worst user on CE 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017 Current e-argument streak: 0 wins. 25408 losses. <cite>Dyinglegacy posted [p:911667021] in Unpopular ...
