Loved F3 and Vegas, but 4 sounds like such a huge departure, with so much emphasis on crafting and base building.
The base building is NEAT, and the crafting was well-established (and harder to master) in FO:NV.
The base building is super simple once you play around with it, crafting is super simple as well.
You can probably get through most of the game without base building.
I don’t like to build elaborate settlements, so if you ran through one of mine you would see a radio tower, a generator, some Tato’s, a couple water pumps, and a random guard tower and auto-turret.
It’s not really. It’s the same games, just ‘more’ of those games. A logical expansion rather than an all new revolution.
