Do you want some more Fallout? If so, New Vegas can provide, so long as you don’t mind your every hour with it being laced with some small amount of disappointment.
'It’s just that this is absolutely not the classic that Fallout 1 and 2 unquestionably were, and it’s also not the bold, bright reinvention that Fallout 3 was. Scrolling all the way back in the RPS archives reveals this absolute scorcher of a Fallout: New Vegas review from Quintin Smith. That's if you even consider New Vegas a classic, mind. Of course, the folks who are excited for a mod like F4NV are probably the sort of folks who could recite their favourite New Vegas questlines from memory. That's something the trailer is keenly aware of, flaunting a whole lot more exploding heads and first-person blasting than it does any sort of ethical dialogue dilemma. Granted, Fallout 4's technical base has its own share of problems, leading the mod team towards some spine-breaking problems with combining the two games.įallout 4 does undoubtedly have better rootin', tootin' and shootin' than the Fallout 3 era games, mind. And while it may seem petty, the sheer jank of New Vegas's foundations were a barrier to me getting invested in what I'm told is an extremely good wasteland RPG, actually. Sure enough, it does very much look like Fallout: New Vegas rendered in the more up-to-date stylings of Bethesda's Fallout 4.
