The success of Prime Video’s Fallout TV show has spilled over into the video games upon which it is based, boosting player numbers in even decades old titles.
Tried it last month on PS5 and gave up. Frequent crashes, disconnections breaking ongoing quests; you log in and your camp is removed because someone else build theirs in that spot; shallow, linear, often annoying quests; overall feels empty, discouraging exploring; seems like all better items are earned for killing something and all you find looting surroundings is junk; very limited carrying capacity; repeatable enemies; constant push to pay for subscribtion; cosmetics breaking immersion like pride flags, xmas hats etc.; disappointing graphics.
Overall I’d rate it avarage - 6,5/10.
In plus: Fallout world and lore (the Fallout 4-esque one, not the classic 1 & 2), friendly community happy to show off their camps. Except that one high-level asshole who one-shot my noob character when I was browsing a stash box :D
