have you played new vegas or 3? I think that fallout 4 really streamlines a lot and it made a lot of the systems more clean, but fallout 4 feels like it was done a little more haphazardly. New Vegas does story the best because it makes the player feel like all the choices matter. Choices have consequence and choosing one faction affects the other in a more natural way. in 4 the factions dont seem as well planned out. missions in 4 are also way less interesting, most of the time their just featch quest where you kill tons of dudes.
The action and gun play was improved greatly in 4 but it made vats a little less useful. The game went more from being an rpg to being a action game with rpg elements. Dont get me wrong I like 4 but it also has quite a bit of problems. 4 does have some great companions. I think their the most interesting in terms of story.
True, new vegas did do so, but fallout 4 made you really question wheter or not you have to choose A B Or C if you know what i mean
it does but it also pigeon holes you into 1. what if i dont want to choose a, b, or c and want to choose a and b, or b and c, or c and a, or a b and d...so because it makes you choose one it ends up limiting you. For me personally i did not want to fuck over the brotherhood, the railroad, or the minutemen, but the game makes it extremely difficult to know what choices are ok among each faction. They needed a faction happiness level like in new vegas. The mission structure in 4 just seemed like it was not planned as well so it did not flow as fluidly.
