When you offer such a vast amount of stuff to do in one game, there are going to be some quests that live up to the promise, and some that don't. Adding on to that was a settlement mechanic that allowed players to create small towns from scratch, a huge enticement for players who were more interested in collecting items and building. Much like The Elder Scrolls V: Skryim before it, Fallout 4 focused on creating a huge map full of content for players to discover. Much like Bethesda's other open-world RPGs, Fallout 4 finds most of its appeal in exploration with players roaming an irradiated wasteland that used to be Boston and finding all kinds of trinkets, treasure, monsters, and stories.
Fallout 4 is one of the most successful entries in the series, mixing critical acclaim with high sales back in 2015.
First developed by Interplay Entertainment in 1997, Fallout has since become the intellectual property of Bethesda Softworks, which is the company that developed Fallout 4. The Fallout video game franchise has been around for a long time.
