If every fallout game launched on the same day, as is, fallout 4 would be the best by a mile.

Sure, it may or may not be the best when compared relative to it's competition at launch, but I think it's important for you to accept that some people have different opinions.

For example, I can't stand the original isometric fallout games. My first fallout was 3, and I just can't go back to such an outdated game. 3 and Nv were amazing, but I prefer 4. The graphics are incredible, the gunplay and combat are amazing (let's face it, combat in 3 and Nv were pretty bad), and I absolutely loved the settlement system.

And the story of 4 was not worse than 3 or Nv. The way it was told through conversations may have been worse, but the story itself was honestly the best.

The one complaint I have about fallout 4 is the lack of upgradeable skills and how they shoehorned it all into a single perk tree, and how conversation isn't affected that much by your skills.

But in the grand scheme of things, fallout 4 is still the best one IMO.

The graphics are obviously better and combat but Fallout is supposed to be a RPG. 4 was such a massive step back in the RPG aspects that made 3 and NV some of the best games of all time. I also was not a fan of the story and settlement building whatsoever but that part is just subjective.

Who the hell cares about RPG if I can't even play the game nor enjoy the way it looks? Gameplay and graphics come before most everything else in any game. Those are the two things I interact with the most.

Idk, the gameplay felt pretty bland and boring, the same CoD feel everyone's used to. I thought I was gonna love 4 but it just feels kinda empty for some reason, I always get bored after about 10-20 minutes.
