Fallout 4

Fallout 4 is the long awaited sequel to Bethesda’s brilliant Fallout 3 (because we all know New Vegas was more like a giant expansion for Fallout 3 than it was a full sequel). Here are the key features of the game..

• It bears more than a passing resemblance to Fallout 3 (or New Vegas if you prefer) where you can switch between first and third person view.
• You can explore a vast and desolate future landscape, the biggest world yet in a Fallout game.
• You can gain followers to assist you in battle; including man’s best friend Dogmeat.
• Mold the world through your actions and conversations with people.
• The S.P.E.C.I.A.L. character creation system returns, which lets you customize your character’s Strength, Perception, Endurance, Charisma, Intelligence, Agility, and Luck to create a character that is truly unique.
• The V.A.T.S. (Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System), which allows you to slow time and target individual parts of each enemy and then execute all your actions in quick succession, is returning.
• The crafting system also returns, but it is vastly expanded allowing just about everything to be crafted and modified.
• You can now create and manage entire towns, which can draw in NPCs to live live within your town.
• The physical disk copies of Fallout 4 for PC require a steam account to play, without a steam account to download the day one patch the game will not run.
• We now know the system requirements you will have to have in order to play Fallout 4 on PC.
