Excellent game. May not be as groundbreaking as previous Fallout titles, but I still put in 159+ hours before setting it down to play another game. However, I will still be coming back to experience more before the DLCs are released. I can say at this point, I have still not explored all locations, so there are certainly hours of entertainment left.

Playing through each main fanctions story line made me feel uncomfortable at times, as I didn't always want to carry out the tasks that were required to remain on the factions' good side. Well played Bethesda.

There are a few Creation Engine bugs that still exist from previous Bethesda games, most notably the sometimes-wonky physics. These wonky physics usually just make me chuckle, and don't distract me from the enjoyment of the game, and can even bringout some of the historical ridiculousness of the Fallout franchise. I will say I noticed much fewer incidents of lootable items falling through other objects or the floor and becoming unreachable, which is a huge improvement (believe it happened to me twice during my 159+ hours of play).

The crafting seems to be an expansion of FNV's crafting, and is much improved. The new system made scavenging and looting actually feel important and not just a mindless filling up your home with useless crap.

Some things I felt were missing that existed in previous Fallout games include:
  • Different ammo types
  • Weight for ammo
  • Player vehicles (You can man the vertiberd gun, but cannot pilot it)

Note that if we're all lucky, some or all of these may be included in DLCs!
