    I think Bethesda knows how to make one game in different settings, sadly that game was most popular in the early 10s.

      I think this is an accurate way to put it. I happen to like that game but if it’s not what you were expecting or you’re tired of it you’re not going to like the game.

      I have to say the best change from FO4 is ditching the voiced protagonist. That was a big mistake at the time.

      What a wierd take, given that people STILL play Skyrim, Morrowind, and Fallout games in droves to this day. And that there are a ton of YouTubers that have made careers exclusively off of Beth lore and build videos and such.

      Also given the post is about the game shifting to “mostly positive” on Steam. Which means the vast majority of reviews on steam are actually positive. And a lot of the negative reviews have to do with performance and technical issues, not the gameplay itself.

      Also the fact that other “open world story-based shooters with rpg and crafting mechanics” are actually really popular - you know like Cyberpunk, or Mass Effect, or RDR2, or arguably, Jedi Survivor.

      If you don’t like Beth games, that’s fine. They’re not for everyone. But it doesn’t mean your opinion is universal.
