I enjoyed Fallout 4. It may not have that New Vegas secret sauce or be up to par with the original game, but there are aspects of it I like. The USS Constitution. Dogmeat. The entire Far Harbor DLC. It’s a fun sandbox if you’re either willing to go deep into the roleplaying aspect of things or mod the shit out of it.
However, it’s probably my least favorite Fallout game. That’s fine, I can just go back and play one of the old ones if I get a hankering for post-apocalyptic action. But a bunch of old Fallout 4 screenshots have been doing the rounds again on social media. Back when the game was new, fans tweaked their camera settings to make it look like an old-school isometric RPG a lá the first two games. It’s one of those things where you whack a couple of filters on there and it goes viral all over again, thousands of players — myself included — suddenly transported back to memories of New California.
