So great and charming, and the atmosphere reminds me of shadow moses island with how dense it is. Every area is unique and exploration feels extra rewarding with your acquired wealth deciding Luigi's house at the end. Only gripes come in the final act with 300 health boos and backtracking between the basement and the 3rd floor, but the game oozes enough love and quality to make it fun all the way through.

Fallout 4

Fallout 4 is the perfect example of why people should stop overhyping anything.
Is it the Fallout title we all wanted? No. Is it a bad game? ♥♥♥♥ no.
It's a weak title from the series because of the simplification of the RPG elements and making it far more casual. Still, it has the best gameplay in the series, a beautiful world with a lot of lore, and small stories.
Truth be told, Bethesda never understood the Fallout universe. The first two Fallout titles were clever examples of retrofuturism. In Bethesda’s games, the idea seems to be that Fallout takes place in a world where the bombs fell in the 1950s. Or rather, in a world where the culture of the 1950s lasted an extra 120 years and even endured through the apocalypse. And that’s what the world of Fallout is. It’s not the 1950s. It’s the year 2077 as the people of the 1950s would have imagined it.
A great video explaining the ideas behind the original Fallout lore:

To enjoy it, you have to look at it as a great shooter in the Fallout universe. To this day, New Vegas holds the top and I hope Bethesda can learn from their mistakes.
