A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

i played a bit of fallout 4, but i dont really understand the hype that was around it. its a loading screen simulator with an awful city repair element slapped on top.

not a huge fan :/

it sucks... i really enjoyed all of the previous fallouts i played (FO1, FO2, FO:BoS, FO3) and expected something better.

You've played every Fallout except for New Vegas? How come you skipped that particular one?

[–] AmazingAwesomator@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

new vegas, there was a mobile one, and i think there was an only-online one that i missed.

just never got around to playing those. my backlog is mighty, and FO4 was a freebie i picked up within the last year or two.

You're right, Fallout Shelter for mobile and I guess I forgot about 76. I was thinking "mainline" Fallouts.

New Vegas is an amazing game with an even more amazing modding scene. Absolutely recommend you getting to it down the line, it's a bit closer to the OG Fallouts than the Bethesda ones. Superb DLCs as well, all of them really good.
