I don't know if this is considered a "hot take" as the uncs say, I feel like it shouldn't be, but Fallout 4 is a better game than Fallout 3. Both are utter shit as RPGs however Fallout 4 is at least competent as an open world FPS crafting game. Fallout 3 fails even at that
The obsession with collecting junk and crafting hadn't taken root in mainstream vidya yet. Ironically it was new vegas that really fleshed out the system and showed players found it engaging.4 sucks as an fps too, any time I see people praising the shooting I have to wonder what flavor of crack they're smoking because it's exactly the same shit as 3.
>>743832931F2>F1>FNV>FTactics>4>3
>>743832931both are shit, liking this slop should be a bannable offense
>>743832931it isnt a hot take, f4 is shit on almost every single, but at least the gunplay is fun, however that can't be said about f3
>>743832931Based Fallout 4 enjoyer
>>743832931You know, if we were to reduce our criticism of the Fallout games down to the slim metric of "which game succeeds as an open world FPS crafting game" then Fallout 76 would have to take the cake for the best Fallout game ever made. Peasants are over here debating 4 vs 3 when there's 10x the content in 76, 4x the scale, 16x the detail, 190x the settlement props and microtransactions, etc.
>>743832931Fallout 3 is better because it actually has interesting locations and crafted levels and settlements with unique interactions. Fallout 4 is nothing but fetch quests, radiant quests, randomized loot and enemies, and not a single settlement except the big one in the middle. It's a soulless game and a precursor to Starfield, where they perfect the art of making a game feel AI generated. I don't give a shit about crafting and shooting mechanics when the game world is shit.
>>743834115Learn to read retard
>>743832931I liked the DLC
None of your choices mattered in Fallout 4. It's just a looter shooter with crafting and a story about body snatching. Now, Wastelands (*slaps knee*), that's a better fallout.
>>743834230What part do you think I didn't understand? Fallout 76 is better, moron. It always has been.
>>743834205This. Fallout 3 actually rewards exploration and has good atmosphere, where the harshness of the wasteland is contrasted by peak comfiness.
>>743834115Based. I love 76
>>743834315Op clearly states its using open world fps as a criteria ONLY because both suck as rpgs. Rpgs are still preferable, so shove f76 up your ass you dyslexic retard
>>743832931I liked Fallout 3, loved Fallout 4, and adored 76 and Starfield
>>743834010Fallout 76 has better gunplay, more content, and a bigger map.
>>7438329313 is uncslop. 4 is actually playable
>>743834115Unironically this. 3 isn’t a great RPG, but it still is one. If you want survival crafting, Fallout 76’s massive sandbox is wayyyyyyyy better than 4’s rendition of Boston.To me, 4 hits an awkward spot where it isn’t a proper RPG anymore, but it doesn’t really have the size it needs to be a proper survival sandbox thingy. Instead it’s more of a strange action game with some RPG and crafting sauce on it, not particularly exceling at anything.
>>743833841Incredibly powerful ranking, butF76>F4>F3>1>2>FNV
>>743834382>Op clearly states its using open world fps as a criteria ONLY because both suck as rpgs. So, because both suck at being RPGs, we have to completely remove that metric? We can't say that Fallout 3 is a bad RPG, but Fallout 4 is an even worse RPG? We have to move the goalposts here?If the goalposts get changed from "which games are better as RPGs" to "which games are better as open-world FPS crafting games", Fallout 76 is absolutely squashing the competition here.

>>743834662>batrmanGood morning saar
>>743833274The shooting is the main core of Fallout 4 and it's boring asf. When all the characters and factions are uninteresting, all that's left is collecting junk and building useless crap.
>>74383461076 chads win again
>>743832931Are Fallout 3 and 4 the best Fallout games?
>>743834815No because NV exists.
