With that said I’m still enamored with the game and the world. I think I get it now but I can’t shake the feeling that parts of Fallout 4 are designed with the assumption that the player has a long history with the franchise. I don’t think the game does a very good job of explaining things like hacking or item modification. I still find the building system unintuitive and unnecessarily imprecise. I honestly had no idea how the settlement construction stuff worked until Tycho explained it to me. That’s not to say some of the mechanics aren’t frustrating though. Here's a text message I sent to Tycho last night:Īfter a week or so of playing, I finally feel like I “get” Fallout now and I love it. Last night was also the very first time I ever picked up a piece of junk and said to myself “ooh this would look nice on that shelf in my hideout.” So that’s terrifying. I imagine myself weighing the tin can in my hand and then tossing it over my shoulder and reaching for the desk lamp thinking “Screws!”. Now I can tear through a space pushing aside newspapers and grabbing duct tape. Last night things really clicked for me and I found myself behaving like an honest to God wasteland scavenger. My squirrel brain made me feel like I had to pick up every ashtray and manila folder.

I used to be overwhelmed when I walked into a room full of stuff. Now I’m having awesome adventures every night! I stopped thinking about what the game wanted me to do and just did what I wanted to do. What I finally realized is that everytime I sit down to play, I’m progressing MY story. I used to feel like if I was not “progressing the story” I was wasting time. I worry that I’m missing some important thing because I went left instead of right. I wander around feeling like I’m missing tons of stuff. I’ve talked a bit before about how these open world games tend to paralyze me.

Fallout 4 is the very first Fallout game I’ve ever played.
