southcoast09 posted...The idea of crafting was fun you basically had to do it to get good weapons but it became a pain in the ass when forced to do so for quests. Building that stupid generator towards the end was just unnecessary.
The signal interceptor? That's about halfway through the game, not near the end. Plus that's the only thing you're forced to build for a quest unless you go the Brotherhood route, in which case you also build something else later. Hardly an issue even if you disliked crafting.

I'm as big a Fallout fan as they come and it appeased me no end. It was a massive improvement and made you finally feel like you were wearing a suit of power armour rather than just another skin with better numbers. The only criticism I have which was posted earlier is that it was a bit of a misstep giving you a suit so early and making a set piece out of the deathclaw.
southcoast09 posted...If you play through, expect to spend roughly three hours at loading screens, total. They designed the map too big and with too many useless areas. One-room cafes with a floor safe and some irradiated food. Yeah, that s*** just causes the game to slow and doesnt need to be there.
Fallout 3 has absolutely massive areas. For example, a museum in Fallout 3 will be four times the size of one in Fallout 4. Fallout 3 has a charm that they failed to replicate.
Loading isn't noticeably worse than any other open world game and I've played FO4 on both PC and PS4. And I think you've got nostalgia glasses on for your other point there; all Fallout games have plenty of "pointless" areas which are only there for spanersion and atmosphere, plus there's plenty of big buildings to explore (Corvega Assembly Plant and the Boston Public Library off the top of my head).

Come on, now.
