Play Fallout 4
I did, and then I never played another fallout game again
>>729842539dogmeat owns me
is it still skyrim with guns with paper thin rpg elements?
>>729842680No. The Anniversary update changed EVERYTHING.
>>729842539the settlement shit is the worst thing ever thank god you can just exponentially duplicate every material because i'd go fucking nuts
>>729842680There are mods that allow you to turn it into a decent action RPG. Otherwise, it's still Skyrim with good gameplay, guns, and building.
>>729842767
>>729842837>with good gameplaylol
>>729842645I did this but I am having an itch. Did they make any good DLC for F4?
>>729843198Definitely better than Skyrim and other Bethesda games. Especially AI, it's quite interesting how it has evolved from Skyrim, where enemies just stood and waited for you to shoot them, to Fallout 4, where they actually use cover and stuff.>>729843242Far Harbor is good. Nuka World is decent.
I cant help but turning f4 into a horror game. Anyone else? The environment and atmosphere just hits so well.
>>729842539based
>>729842539my only real gripe with it is that I wish the map was bigger
>>729843543Lots of mods that help with that, most adding new interiors. Not sure if they still work though.
>>729842539Is there any mod that fixes the story?
>>729842539I tried, Todd, I really did, vanilla, moded, multiple attempts but it still wasn't enjoyable.
>>729843642Imo adding random interiors doesn't really help. It's better to install mods that add more interesting loot, dungeons, and maybe new lands but they are rare.
>>729843805There big overhauls like that but they arent very stable. Stuff like restored subways or caves of the commonwealth is pretty good.
>>729844159Subways mod is very outdated and low quality. Caves Of The Commonwealth is cool, and its author recently released a fairly large new land mod
>>729844386Any that repopulate and restore concord? That place seems to be a no brainer but most mods I see reskin it a bit but never actually that turn it into a functioning settlement.
Last time I tried booting it up it crashed instantly twice so I just uninstalled it.
>>729842539I'd love to, but the game is still loadingand loadingand loading
>>729844784SS2 does this, but you need to complete its quests for it, which you won't do in an average playthrough.
I still haven't gotten around to playing it.Any recommended mods or should I go through it once without any?
I'm good, there's only so many times I can play this game. Let me know when they make Fallout 5 or someone makes another standalone mod like boston but good this time. Or let me know when someone fixes the settlement NPCs
>>729844956Play vanilla to understand what you need to fix and replace when installing mods.
I wish that nerd would update the Q/E leaning mod, then I would.
>>729845141It is literally built into the game.
How are people using looksmenu? New update broke it. Are people just downgrading to previous versions?
>>729842680>>729842837fallout 4 with horror mods or the large map mods is a top tier gaming experience
>>729845215Playing with scp or cryptid mods is honestly a one of kind gaming experience. I do love that that this niche mod community formed around this game.
>>729845296It doesn't even stand out from the overall aesthetic considering Fallout 76.I'm so glad that people have finally started porting Fallout 76 creatures to Fallout 4 and NV.
>>729845554Links?. I'm trying to build a playthrough based around this opening. The music is unnerving as shit.https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/98832
>>729845215Agreed, Horror combined with Survival on Far Harbor is kino
>>729845728https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/75773
>>729845859>that modder tantrumlol lmao
>>729845728No links, sorry. A few months ago some moron posted one of the links on Reddit and it all was nukedPorts for NV haven't been released yet and may never be ever released because it's Hitman and a lot of things don't leave his close circle and YouTube videos https://youtu.be/rGuhs8puZns?si=B5k6VtSlsuE0HhYA
>>729845919I read his whole posts before, he worked with another modder and that dude stole his code and start making mods and taking credit for it. It doesn't help that the other dude used his retarded discord to mob him.
>>729842539the only redeeming factor of fallout 4 is the open world (lol)
>>729845984Oh fuck that looks neat. I remember having a playthrough where I encountered a wendigo in the woods and shitting my pants because vats couldn't find any of its weakpoints. Not sure what mod added it.
what are some good integral mods that just make the base game better? don't say any building shit because I will never care
>>729846236It's definitely Mutant Menagerie, I used it before too. But it's very bloated, has ugly models and animations, and unfortunately causes crashes.
>>729846347*I don't mean simple content stuff like mroe guns or armor either
>>729845195Check the posts on the mod page, there's a link to a github page where someone updated it.
But I already do.
>>729846430Depends really on what you want. Besides some convo ui tweaks I don't think I've seen any that try to improve the rpg aspects. Most focus on the immersion and sandbox stuff.

>>729842539Feels like I'm playing the same character I already played, the roleplay is pretty shit
:3
>>729847103what textures are those on the floors
>>729847149they are from the clean shacks modhttps://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/8813
>>729847248thanks, I though it was from the A Better World teamhttps://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/79074
I own it. I've made 3 attempts at getting into it and every time I get through that first power armor demo I just drop it.
>>729847337neat, thanks
>>729847397>power armor demoYou don't have to go inside the Museum
>>729842539Why play fallout when Skyrim does everything better
>>729842539>tried Fallout 4 VR>plays like ass>need a bunch of mods to make it workI know I would have fun playing in VR but I hate having to download a ton of bullshit.
>>729847508fallout 4 base game, dlc, and mods are better than skyrims except for sex mods
>>729842539
>>729847687With a little bit of garlic salt and butter, maybe some cheese broiled on top of the piece of toast I bet that'd be pretty good
>>729847901If you need to mod your sandwich it's not a good sandwich
>>729847978The very point of sandwiches is that you make your own combination of ingredients.
>>729848009That's the joke anon
>>729848553nice shit character and faggot haircut, loser
>>729849572eat my ass :)
I would if the game was good.
Is it just me who has the bug that causes a black screen while loading and makes it take forever??
>>729849634nta but the hair sucks, the boobs don't make it less gay
seeing the dogmeat breed change with the AE reminds me of when I was a kid and loved the DLC that let you change your dog's breed in Fable III WANT TO BE 10 AGAIN AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Survival Mode is kino and is better than Stalker 2.
I liked 3 and NV but I couldn’t get into 4 at all. I hated how it looked and hated how it played and didnt like the story.
>>729842539why fallout new vegas is better
No mod or set of mods has ever fixed fallout 4s casual shittiness without spending most of the gameplay to not be fallout 4 anyone It's all gilding on a turd
>>729842539I have, extensively. Probably won't ever again though. Best part is just wandering the city and glowing sea with your camping kit, armour and loyal deathclaw.
>>729851560something positive about AE??
>>729842539Play Road to Vostok demo
>>729845215>>729845734thesebut I like having nsfw mods as well because having a harem along with you in a scary post apocalypse adds more to the immersion to my "the last man on earth" roleplay
>>729851893Are they ever going to release it? It's been years already. I was really excited for it at first
>I need you to go to X>ok, ok sarcastic, ok but question, no>get to X>kill everyonehow did they get away with this. The moment I reached the combat zone and everyone turned hostile was the moment I knew the game had no saving
A shitload of sci-fi games just dropped in the last 4 months. I'm busy.
On gog whats the difference between Fallout 1 and 2 and Fallout 1 and 2 Classic?
>>729851560how do you do that?
>>729851893>>729852678I take it back I just loaded up the demo this looks like it might be good
>>729853031classic is the original version and will for sure not run on a modern windows/pcnonclassic is the patched version for modern systems
Fallout 4 has one of my favorite worlds in a video game. Boston and the Glowing Sea in particular are peak kino.
>people are nostalgic and like fallout 4peak jeet hours
>>729853643Your mother is a jeet.
>>729842539I wish these were the aesthetics of the actual game. Just this rainy, moody atmosphere layered over what's meant to be a highly colorful world. Instead it's a highly colorful world that's washed out.
>>729854256Sure but its very easy to do with reshade and enb. >>729853516I love the mod that adds an entire derelict city in the glowing sea. It's creepy kino.
I am playing it right now with Sim Settlements 2, my first playthrough and I am liking it quite a bit.What pisses me off is scraping>Low weight limit (230)>Want to get some gears/steel or other shit>Take like 5 desk fans typewriters and other>Have to go to my main hub (Sanctuary) and drop all that shit>Rinse and Repeat>Basically spamming F5Is there a better way?Also how long is Sim Settlement 2? And do you need a lot of residents for it to progress? I feel I have like 25 in Sanctuary and its already a clusterfuck and I dont have a lot of places to build houses on to
>Install alternate start mod>Install mod to keep Curie as a robot after "Emergent Behavior">Install a few weapon modsI'm a simple man, the game is enjoyable again after a decade.
>>729855770Link me up with some weapon mods. I have the makeshift firearm pack so far.
Guys, I can't get enough of Cait. I don't care anymore that she dislikes everything I do.
>>729842539Boo Falout 4. Boo!
>>729855502>Is there a better way?Do drugsUpgrade your armourhttps://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/29447I also suggest stopping collecting crap like desk fans, as they are heavy and don't have particularly useful resources.>Also how long is Sim Settlement 2?Where are you now? It's quite long. I couldn't finish it because the whole plot system is very boring and slows down the game.
>>729842539I kept running out of ammo. 3 is better.
>>729853516>Glowing SeaThe Glowing Sea is cool until you get there and realise there's nothing unique about it and that any loot you'd find there can found literally anywhere else on the map.
i have no idea why you would want to play this garbage over fallout 3. fallout 3 barely has any woke nonsense shoved in
>>729842539this quest made me cry a little. I just couldn't leave the vault and left robobrains suffer for another few hundred years, so I decided to sneak into vault after quest and hack all robobrains, and turn them off. This was my last brain in her body standing at that artificial beach made me tear up.
>>729859301that's some soma shit
man I still remember the catastrophic shitposting on this board on release day all the spam of HATE NEWSPAPERS
>>729855502breakdown junk into components at any workbenchhttps://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/47267
>>729842539One of the worst games Ive ever played. Emil and the art director should be banished from the industry.
>>729859534The voiced protag was such a massive detriment to this game that I'm still floored when I remember that they almost did it again for Starfield
>>729859301Stuff like this just makes me wish Fallout had actual levity to it. The setting can be very melancholic and tragic but everything is played for laughs and reddit gold insteadAlso that quest seemed like they forgot to go back and make an epilogue, nothing actually happens with the place
>>729856169I just downloaded a couple of WW2 weapon packs so I could run around with Kraut Guns. I also downloaded a craftable legendaries mod so that I could slap an Irradiated effect on my STG-44.
>>729859534Good times. Sad to see that things have gotten so bad that some poor zoomies are looking back fondly on what was unanimously considered dogshit.
>>729860931Have you played the older games?
>>729845215>fallout 4 with horror modsThere's horror mods!? Are they good?Fuck I'm interested now
>>729846879You just linked me to a porn mod anon
I did and I got bored within a couple hours. What's changed?
>>729852678Looks like we're going into early access Feb/March.
>>729860931This is a fair criticism of Fallout 4. I felt like 3 and FNV were grim enough even though the game had some characters and situation intended to lighten some pretty dark subject matter.Fallout 4 was just way too bright visually and thematically and mods couldn't fix it for me.
>>729862257You can make it look less like Fallout 4 and more like Fallout 3/NV/76
>>729862786>make it less like Fallout 4 and more like Fallout 3/NV/76And why would I do that instead of playing said games
I want a nuFallout game but with a more serious tone
>>729843242>Fallout>Good DLCLMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>729862941Better gameplay than Fallout 3/NV. Not as greedy as Fallout 76 and you can mod itBesides, Fallout 4 still has its appeal. NV is one of my favourite games ever, but I still have more playtime in Fallout 4 because it's just bigger and more sandbox-like.I really don't understand all this tribalism at this point. Fallout 4 isn't even Bethesda's latest favourite child, it's basically in the same boat as F3 and NV at this point, with Fallout 76 and Show being the new kings. People can criticise Fallout 4 for a long time, but even it didn't rape the Fallout lore as much as 76 and Show did.
>>729843242Far harbor is genuinely better than every new vegas dlc in both gameplay and story. Adds an awesome new vault, tons of new likeable characters, actual choices and stakes in quests, one of the coolest and most unique antagonists in fallout history, new creatures look scary, the environment is straight out of a lovecraft, its awesome all around.
>>729842669Feral Friday chad... I kneel...
>>729863598It's another ‘le scary island’ DLC that every Bethesda game has but it's honestly easily might be the best one.
>>729863598Also it adds three way conversation between npc, companion, and the player to fallout 4, with nick especially being a fantastic character if you take him for the dlc and his philosophy not necessarily being what you would agree with. piper has some great stuff to say too iircmakes for a good change from HOW LITTLE companions to react to ANYTHING in the base game. Thats for sure.
>>729846347Feral NightsMakes feral ghoul hordes spawn at night, which makes survival mode way more fun
Do the mods usually need all of the DLC?I was thinking of buying just Far Harbor since it looks cool and not all the base building ones
>>729863846Yes, but DLCs are literally just files without any protection. You can just download the DLC files separately and drop them into the game folder.
>>729863598DiMA's voice actor is so fucking incredible too, another way that the expansion departs from the base game in a positive way. Ironic that his synthetic design allowed his actor to give a ranged performance instead of having to worry about going too emotional for Bethesda's shitty NPC handler to handle with proper facial expressions. This is what happened with Piper in the main game.Sucks because she's a great character and her actress was really trying but everyone just laughed at her because the mocap, facial expressions, and voice performance were SO at odds with each other.
