Utterly Mad

Hey guys I just watched the latest thing on Fallout 4 HERE'S ALL THE EXCITING CHANGES THAT I STOLE FROM SOME DUDE'S SUMMARY ON REDDIT:

No new gameplay videos, it's just them talking over the occasional backdrop of cut scenes from the existing trailers and/or Fallout 3 gameplay.

Game handles large scale, multi party combat much better than before, especially with VATS.

Skill system appears to be gone, replaced with a perk system that is based around your SPECIAL stats instead. Each point of stat unlocks a different perk, so if you start with ten Strength, for example, you can potentially take even the last Strength based perk right at the start.

Looting corpses is more streamlined, you seem to be able to mouse over them and see their contents, instead of interacting with them like a container.

Radial menu for weapon equips. Hooray for consoles, aids for PC, as always.

Dog will loot stuff for you.

Can shoot off limbs of feral ghouls, including legs, and they will crawl at you like typical zombie game style enemies.

Brotherhood of Steel is confirmed to be a potential friendly faction, mentioned that the player can "call in backup" from friendly factions.

Protagonist will self narrate while walking around the gameworld, similarly to Witcher 3.

Radiation in the game no longer works like in previous games. Instead of taking away from your stats, it now works exactly like it does in Fallout Shelter, where it takes away from your maximum health on your health bar.

Melee has critical hit animations, mentioned was hitting someone in the nuts to knock them down, then bashing their head with a baseball bat while they are on the ground.

Needless to say.... I don't know what to say, because I haven't played it. It'll probably turn out fine, with the modding community probably fixing fucking everything like they usually do. But with Bethesda going on record saying that modding tools won't be out at the start, I may wait for a few months after the hype dies down and see what people say about the game.
