As a console player I prefer games that work 'out of the box' but I guess we will soon get to enjoy some less graphically demanding elements of the 'mod experience' :-)

For sure I would try Fallout 1. If it came to Mac OS as Baldur's Gate did I would. I admit (not wishing to divert the thread but hey) that i now struggle with older games that may have better stories but are just so janky to play. I recall with deep fondness Morrowind and KOTOR, but I can't...

I did say it was probably the second most enjoyable. I enjoyed AC Syndicate enough, but FO4's world was just more fun. Tomb Raider was good, but brutally short. MGSV was entertaining, but the second act fell apart. Alien Isolation was good but ultimately repetitive. I have no interest in 1st...

Looks like It was a shame the underground didn't connect up, though FO3's underground was essentially the same tunnels over and over. Your points are not unreasonable, but essentially i guess I just had more fun with the game than you did so what are small issue to me may be a big deal to...

Well this is a grumpy thread. With the exception of The Witcher 3 which has a stronger story (and particularly side content) Fallout 4 is the most enjoyable game I've played in the last 12 months. Seems likely that if the OP enjoyed other entries in the series, they will enjoy this one. I hope...

3 and New Vegas. I'm a console & mac user so haven't played FO1-2/Tactics/BoS

I thought it was a cute quest. i expected to find skeletons at home and was pleased at the happy reunion...

ok: World is gorgeous. Perk system is improved as is voiced protagonist, both improvements. Quests are ok, main quest interesting if not fully realised (I like the 3 faction solution) Radiant quests can be a little tiresome but no worse than Skyrim. Settlement building is entertaining. I built...

I think there are elements of both games that outdo the other. It's not as binary as 'is 3 better than 4 & vice versa'.

I disagree. I'm on my 5th play through and have distinct flavours to the approach of each protagonist. To my mind 'Action RPG' suits it well, though genre classifications are ultimately fairly pointless. It is what it is.

I quite like Angry Joe, and Fallout 4 seems a pretty decent franchise entry* *admittedly only having played FO3/NV/FO4 as I gave up on pixelly isometric games in the last century, even if they were good in their day...
