I'm surprised I have avoided being invested in any of these franchises.
It's probably because so many of them are mediocre or don't really exist as modern games. It's kinda sad that out of that list, there are so few 10/10 series there.
So you've never played Fallout: New Vegas?
Wow, just wow. You're missing out.
That's Obsidian
I haven't. I did try Fallout 4 but it just wasn't for me.
I'd still give it a try. FO4 was one of the worst games in the series.
I liked its mechanical innovations, especially in how power armor works, but....
And I'm assuming we're just not talking about 76?
Yes they improved a lot of the gameplay in FO4, but Bethesda sucks at writing a good story. Just look at Starfield.
And yes, FO76 is worse. I was careful with my wording in the other comment.
There was a project to port the story from FNV into FO4, but I haven't checked on the progress in a year or so.
