Most of the negative reviews ive seen on this game were comparing it to other fallout games, they do say that fallout haters are fallout fans themselves. Other than that I find the game mechanics really nice in fallout 4 comparative to the other fallout's, and in that aspect i would say its better, the only argument i see nowadays is that "ohhh but the role playing isn't good at all, try fallout new Vegas its so much better" yeah it is better but in 80% other aspects this fallout is better, its super enjoyable sure there's bugs but no where near as many as the other ones. So thats why this will still be one of my top fallout ratings because way to many people hate on it because they like the other game more, sure you're entitled to your own opinion and so am i, and thats why im saying the game play in this game is so much smother and better, it outclasses the other ones, and the story is still not bad, just not as good.
