Still like the game, even if it did not live up to expectations.

    I understand the criticism of Fallout 4 and generally agree but I don’t think the New Vegas comparison is a fair one.

    New Vegas was built on top of Fallout 3 by Obsidian. It had the benefits of a complete game needing only a few engineering changes to accommodate it. Obsidian didn’t have to spend nearly the amount of effort on assets and engine changes that Bethesda did and could put nearly everything into world building.

      Considering that New Vegas had a production window of 18 months, where Fallout 4’s was 7 years, I’d say it’s a fair comparison.
