My take on this subject:
Code:
for(int fact = 0; fact < 13; ++fact)
{
cout << fact << ") Fallout 4 is shit." << endl;
}

You must have downloaded some 'I love Lynda Carter' mod because I've spoken with her on various playthroughs (I get bored and stop around level 30) and have not once heard her songs on Diamond City Radio.

Maybe it was patched in.

Bug in the review, the three screenshots under point 9 (dialogue) all link to the same screenshot (http://www.rpgcodex.net/gallery/14624.jpg)

Crisis averted. Thanks for the heads-up, our millions of new visitors will thank you for it.

Could've been a feature, an additional commentary of the cut and paste nature of bethesda dialogue
Sorry I ruined it.
i don't think any mods could fix the horrendous quests and dialogue. they will add cool content of course, but the core game will remain shitty forever unless someone gutsy enough will have time and resource to reprogram the entire game, new story, new system, new quests etc

I'm not sure I've ever felt more understood in my entire fucking life than in reading this review
if I were going to single thing out of the fucking cosmos of things that Bethesda is doing wrong, in general and to the Fallout license in particular, it would be this rifuckingdiculous fixation on the prewar era? constantly, CONSTANTLY their excuses for characters feel like they're survivalists who made it through the war, as if they come from an industrialized society like ours and have fallen on hard apocalypse-times. and I'm so glad that Bubbles concluded on that point. FO1/2/NV were completely uninterested in the past except in the specific context of a couple vaults, which were very much the exception to the hard-scrabbling rule. seriously, who is doing the writing at Bethesda? who? do we have this person's name? are they proud of what they've done? I certainly hope they're doing more work than storytelling, because they should not be drawing a paycheck based on that.

Compared to FA:N F4 is surely a bad RPG, but a great hiking simulator in an interesting world with a neat shooting mechanic.
And the new survival mode adds a lot o deph to the game, making it alot harder. The mode (currently in the beta) is much more "hardcore" than the pussy hardcore mode from FANV.
At all its much better then F3.
The Review is just an endless rant from a person that wants to hate the game from the start. IMO Bethesdas best game since Morrowind.

Such a missed chance. This could have been the "Codex Fallout 4 Fortnight", starting with a lead-in teaser before that, then one of 13 installments every day thereafter, ending with the grand finale on the last day ("tl;dr: it's shit").
But yeah, that review is as long as a Bethesda game. Probably only true fans will read the whole thing. Which was probably the goal

I like how the retard who wrote this shit article somehow forgot the perks are gated by attributes, which is their main purpose in this game. Codex, come for the cock girls, stay for the stupid uninformed opinions.

I just read the review and it was well written, so I imagined easily playing this game and experiencing all the disgusting things the reviewer describes and now I feel sickened. Don't read it if you don't want to spoil a good mood.
My roadblock is that I wrote the 8,500-word Underrail Re-Preview in late 2014, and although the game has changed and expanded significantly since then, much of it remains the same. Reiterating or rewriting a large amount of information is a huge chore... and frankly, a decent-sized chunk of what I'd have to add would be negative, partly because I took it easy on them pre-release. I have no issue publicizing that negativity (and made no secret of it in the Underrail threads), but coupled with the need to reiterate lots of information, you can see why I'm not super-excited to write the review. I was hoping someone else would produce a quality review, such as Darth Roxor, but Underrail requires you to move around do stuff and he doesn't seem to enjoy games in which you move around and do things these days.
Also, I burned out on Underrail pretty hard after playing it through again twice, virtually back-to-back, post-release:
(four-ish playthroughs and a few hundred hours AFK time)
