I will not get this game until I have the next book out and am back from Europe in January. Then I will revel in a week long Fallout 4 festival.

Proceed at your own Caution, I am trying to remain spoiler free, for it might be sometime before I actually get to play Fallout 4.

War May Never Change, but Fallout does and sounds like for the better.

Since it's not time to go full upgrade yet I bought a GTX 970 and 12 GB of G-Skill Sniper ram for Fallout 4.

Tried GTA 5 and it looks gorgeous but wow it's a bad game, the open world is great but the controls suck and the story..., we'll end it there.

So I'm doing Skyrim again full bore this time, looks absolutely stunning in parts but sometimes yuck, still if I do a mostly complete run through I'll be ready for Fallout 4 sometime in the new year. Did F3 and FNV earlier this year.

Pre-ordered, pick up after work tomorrow, then it’s Fallout 4 all freakin’ day Wednesday. Excellent, Smithers!

Not to give away my age (LOL) but I bought the grandaddy post-nuke game Wasteland when it first came out, for dialog it would refer you to a page and paragraph in a book that came in the box. We've come a long way with fully voiced dialog.

I loved New Vegas; Fallout 3 not so much relatively speaking, but still miles ahead of most other games. It was a good game, but too many inconsistencies and lost the feel of the series’ earlier titles. Don’t know when I’ll have time to try this one, but I’m sure it will be better than 99% of titles released recently. The great thing is you can mod these games to take out design decisions you hate. I hate leveled lists, so I just write randomized loot/enemy tables right off the bat. No other games offer such a nice interface and flexibility to mod in an open game world. For that reason, Fallout has always been one of my top three franchises.
