Thanks to a video posted by Reddit user OkPain2022, we’re given a glimpse of how pickpocketing will work. Of course, you’ll still need to approach them by crouching, and after you do that, a prompt will appear, allowing you to steal from them. After that, another menu will appear, showing you what they have and the odds of you successfully stealing said items.
That sounds…depressing
It’s not uncommon with the post-apocalypse genre. Many of them want to give the sense that you’re the last person alive. And given the lore for 76, it would have made sense that there wouldn’t be any normal people on the surface (it takes place when the first vaults began opening after the bombs fell). Although, why not have ghoul, super mutant or robot NPCs?
I was playing it recently and I gotta say it’s pretty good. I mean, as fun as Fallout 4 is. But the shit things about it are the things that make it unique. Namely the multiplayer/online gameplay. It sucks because there is often lag making enemies rubberband, which makes them hard to hit. I think it would be better if you could play it entirely offline by yourself.
I would imagine the post-nuclear wasteland probably would be a bit.
It was fine honestly
It’s much improved now and for a discount it’s worth playing I’d say, but when it came out it was total garbage. Never mind the fact that it barely worked, the whole concept of a story built around audio recordings and reading text was a disaster. They had to explain why you never saw anyone so you spend the first part of it following a character but always just missing them getting messages like ‘hey I had to run but it’s cool just meet me at x location’ then repeating it once you get there.
I get what they were trying to do but it just failed to come together.
Yeah the irony is that the Fallout games have some of the best environmental storytelling in all of gaming but without storytelling storytelling it’s just like white noise lol
