Honestly, what did you guys expect the game to look like? And do you own gaming PCs? If so then just mod the fuck out of it like every other Bethesda game and make it look however you want. If the graphics are THAT painful for you and you don't own a gaming PC then get one and mod the fuck out of it.
If the graphics are that painful to some one, why are they even playing Fallout or even interested in it? If you're playing Fallout for the graphics, you're doing it wrong.
Also, yeah, I would prefer they focus on more places to explore, getting better writing (characterization, story), focus on making what you do actually have effect on the world, more varied quests rather than a few series that have a line of quests in them, more dialogue choices, better gunplay (ADs please), that faction system that Obsidian used, oh, hardcore mode as well, better/more crafting (I loved being able to craft recipes in Vegas and being able to even make stimpacks and weapon repair kits). Pretty much everything Obsidian did to improve Fallout (I really hope Bethesda takes some lessons from it. I mean if I see even some influence from Vegas that is going to be great. ANd I really really really hope they put in hardcore mode). Oh, and maybe even make it run a little less janky (But I love Fallout so much I'll probably forgive them if htey don't. I mean i couldn't even finish Vegas cause it got unplayable and it's still my GOAT).
There's so much other stuff they could focus on to make it better that would have far better effect on making it a good game (That focuses on why people like the game and not just making it pretty) than making the graphics pretty. Stuff that is actually more related to why people love Fallout than the pretty graphics.
The game is still prettier than Vegas/3 and that's all I want. I don't care if it matches Witcher or whatever other game you want to compare. I don't play it for being a technical marvel when it comes to graphics (You want that, go play Killzone Shadowfall...). Once again, if you are playing Fallout for the graphics, you are doing it so wrong. And why did we have this many pages of people bitching about graphics on a game that never was known for its graphics in any iteration?! Sure, make some comments on it but it really should never have been this much focus of conversation! Graphics was never why anyone liked the previous Fallouts.
