I said out loud that I would leave a positive review if the game thanked me, the player, in the end credits.

and here it is!

A lot of people didn't like this game as much as some of the others, as it didn't feel "like Fallout". It was supposedly "not enough of an RPG" and focused too much on the shooting aspect.
Whilst I did enjoy spending 25 skill points in lockpicking (in the previous games) to be able to unlock the next level of door, I like this perk system too.

Sure, it's a bit more streamlined, and without a level cap you don't have to specialise in anything in particular (although some perks are more beneficial than others).

I love the world of Fallout, and have spent countless hours just exploring. The attention to detail and environments are amazing. Combat is challenging enough to keep it interesting, and higher difficulties make you re-think approaching certain situations.

The gun customization was a good feature, I'm not sure if I liked it as much as the unique weapons in FNV and FO3 but legendary enemies having a chance to drop something that could potentially be your favourite weapon makes re-visiting old areas for Preston often worthwhile.

Free-flowing combat and an open world game, fans of Assassin's Creed and Batman games will enjoy this.
The heirarchy system or orc captains and warchiefs made for a good few hours of assassinations and battles that seemed overwhelming at times.

Difficulty seemed to decrease as the game progressed, as unlocking more powerful skills (in particular the brand) turned the tide in my favour. I suppose it'd be dissapointing if the MC didn't improve at all, but I believe a lot of the fun lay in plotting how to approach a situation and attacking at the weaknesses of the enemies. Near the end of the game I felt near-invincible and could charge in without much thought.

Deffo worh a look if you like the genre, you may feel that you've seen the combat system before, but it's fluid and viceral, making it extremely satisfying to behead that pesky Uruk who had ambushed you. LOTR knowledge not really needed, I wasn't a buff on the books/movies myself but still enjoyed the story.
