There’s even more and you can find it all HERE
We reviewed Fallout 4 recently and came away impressed with its storytelling, mod scene, and more.
Yes! I’ve been putting off my first playthrough of FO4 for this update. After being new to FO with FO76, and roughly 500 hours of fun there, I am ready to explore more of this IP.
Would have lined up well with the previous release date for the show. Great news either way. I bet fallout 4 gets played more this year than rebirth
Disappointed they’re not doing a bundle of creation club items for 20$ like they did for Skyrim. I guess the crybabies who got mad and called that a “rerelease” won. GG
I might go for another playthrough of this. I absolutely loved my first playthrough. I’m curious what the performance mode and Quality settings will offer.
I mean mods already have it at 4k/60fps, so it seems there will be something extra, more than just higher resolution? Otherwise solely a performance mode would have been enough.
Perfect for getting people into the game after watching the show ! Nice !
Time for another playthrough then! Still have a few achievements to grab as well, so that’ll be nice.
They are giving us free creation club content though?
Yeah 4 new free ones, same as skyrim. That’s nice! What I’m sad about is no bundle of all CC content for 20$. Buying it piecemeal is waaaaaay more expensive.
Ah yes sorry I see what you mean now. Maybe they are planning on doing another bundle later in the year.
This will get me to beat far harbor
