Announced and then denied again.
In June 2015 announced for real.
Released in November 2015.
The history of Fallout 4 seems even now a fairy tale.
Masterpiece even before going out in the shops.
But will this really happen?
In the history of the medium I have seen several games that have been cut off from the public and critics, victims of their own hype.
Even Quake, lords, His Majesty Quake, was victim of its own hype,
I remember that
and "be only" an outstanding game was not enough to overcome that Duke Nukem 3D came out of nowhere.
But in fact we do not even go too far back in time.
We speak of recent history.
The Order 1886
These six hours do they really suck? They suck so much to make the game a flop?
And staying within PS4 ... Bloodborne.
I read papyri around the web that accused Bloodborne of being a mainstream Souls
but now I wonder (and ask) ... because it should be harm if a nice game sells?
Ok, Bloodborne is a step back from Dark Souls:
but if a game is not a masterpiece, automatically mean that it is a disappointment?
I do not think so. I like Bloodborne very much.
Same goes for The Witcher 3.
There are those who regret the days when fans of the witcher were just loyalists.
Why?
Why you can not fully enjoy the title of CD Project only because now The Witcher is mainstream?
The same applies to Skyrim. Holy Crap Skyrim.
The game was finally able to bring a great saga such as The Elder Scrolls to the general public,
paradoxically, it is hated by purists of the genre.
Why?
Why most accessible RPG is hated?
Why mainstream must be synonymous with casual game?
It's not true.
I confess a little secret: Fallout 4 is not a niche game.
They can all play, not only the purists.
And here is because of the many horrible reviews on the web who accuse Fallout 4 to be a FPS where you talk more than you shoot.
But the real question is: why are we doing to ruin the game experience to these details?
The fact is that when you try a game you can not ever to be completely objective.
All that is around the game is often more important than the game itself.
And that is why Fallout 4 is a disappointment according to most people.
And to be clear: I am not accusing anyone.
All of us gamers we are victims of our own passion.
We are all victims and at the same time we are all guilty.
In these situations, personally I envy those who play Fallout 4 having never tried any Fallout.
Without knowing in the least what to expect.
He was amazed. Surprised.
While we continue to discuss how it would be better optimize certain details, he was amazed.
While we criticize all those like him
"who can not enjoy thoroughly Fallout 4, because it does not know the other three"
if he will be enjoyed most of us.
Because ignorance, in these cases, it's a great thing.
