Man, that really sucks. I think the gunplay is serviceable and this game will likely be in my top twenty of the last decade.

Yeah, for some reason, this game has gotten me into that good ol' "just one trip more" feeling... Been years since I've enjoyed a game this much.
I suck at doing quests, keep heading out to do one, then "ooooh, shiney new house to explore", 4 hours later, I still haven't gotten to the quest location.
I love it, maybe the clunkyness of it all reminds me of the games from my youth?

I managed to do it at about that level, but it was tough and took me awhile. I should have left and gone back but I was too stubborn.

i'm curious how you guys are handling armor
My character still has the Vault Suit because of its bonuses, Ive found nothing else that compares. Especially if you mod it.
Then various armor pieces. Some legendary etc. Modded etc.
My armor is like 90 physical and 90 electrical. Like +2 to Agi and Perc and Luck.
While I like all the stats etc I look like a highway patrolman in a blue jumpsuit and metal strapped to my limbs.
I could of course not wear a helmet, or glasses, not use the vault uit and wear a lesser gear etc but I would feel so much less protected plus take a hit to my SPECIAL.
I want to look good but man I don't want to get shot up either.
The only thing I might do is use The Shroud outfit (modded) but even maxed out at level 45 it's still less armor then what I have now at level 26.

That's my biggest comaint with the game, there's all these clothing options but they're all useless when compared to the insane upgrades and mods you can get with armor. Yeah my guy is pretty powerful but he looks like a tool.
Not a clue, I'm at level 41 and I'm still using my original jumpsuit with upgrades. The armor pieces stats always heavily outweigh a complete outfit. I'm slowly collecting synth armor since it looks a little better. I have a few nice legendary pieces of it now.

I'm at level 20 and my armour is no where near that.
What, other than the vault suit, harness and leathers, can you wear under the armour pieces? The vault suit is just so ugly.

While I definitely agree that it shines brightest on PC, I really don't get this idea about it being unplayable on consoles. I'm playing it on PS4, and while I've noticed frame issues and the like, it's still very fun, and very functional.
I actually like the gun play better this time around, even though I'm less a fan of other things that they've done. Overall this is such a mixed bag of a game, but I can't stop playing it for some reason. Can understand it just not clicking for some though.

What is that?
Not much, apparently all other outfits are too "thick" to allow armour over the top.
You can make laser weapons and launchers that fire nukes, and craft all kinds of stuff out of (literally) rubbish, but you can't put an adjuster on the armour to allow for a slightly thicker outfit under your armour.

Some of the best clothes to wear under armor is dirty/clean army fatigues.
Upgrade that shit.

Can you upgrade the underlayer things like harness, road leathers, vault suit etc?
I did the same exact thing but I saved before taking the plunge with my Power Armor on (;
Places like Dunwich really make this game shine, seeing the flashbacks, reading the terminal stories, the atmosphere. You don't get that by just doing the main quest. People are complaining about missing creepy vaults, go check this place out.

The number of SM is annoying. They're everywhere.
Whelp I know what I'm doing later. Might have to find some of that ballistic fiber. I've had military grade duct tape but I've broken that down for adhesive. If you use a part, say a alarm clock, for a specific material do the other materials it breaks down into get put into the workshop?
One of the bodies is permanently there in my game still haha
With that new feature with affinity what happens if you mod a NPC into a follower slot? Does the game give them an affinity gauge or does it just make them act like a temporary NPC follower? There may not even be mods or console commands for all I know.
Also was doing the castle siege minute men quest and the queen boss totally killed and destroyed two of the minute men almost immediately with her acid. It was so quick I thought it was scripted. Do those guys get replaced? What would they do if they survived?
30 hours in myself and wholly agree. Just keep waiting for some of these vignettes or locations to really wake me up from near slumber. Outside of a nifty plotline in Vault 81, its been a letdown. Maybe when I finally meet the Initiative or whatever...

Well, they already hate me. Guess I'm saving that for my next playthrough.
I love reading about Raider leaders talking smack about raider leaders I've killed, mentioning how they would never let that happen to them.
The glorious touch down pose of a sucider super mutant never gets old..sure you know you gonna die when you see it, but still, gott respect his dedication.

Just got through Dunwich Borers last night. Great place but not as creepy as the Dunwich building in FO3. Still though, it was great to see that this Lovecraftian company is actually an in-universe thing now.

This game doesn't have the best gunplay in the world but I find it kind of unreasonable that people expect amazing gunslinging abilities
out of their fresh-from-vault character
who has zero skills besides actually being able to hold the gun
wielding the world's worst pipe weapons
I mean this is an RPG.
kind of.
right?
I don't even know anymore

Possible quest spoilers for this guy..
you can fix that one way or another. Be careful to save, there's a glitch with the "nice" way of fixing him.
