Saying Fallout 4 is Bad is Disrespectful

it's use for the transversal through walls let's go come on use it do it [ __ ] do it do it do it come come and get me come and get me there he is [ __ ] there is and okay well alright shut the [ __ ] up dice that was not an accident I meant to do that that was design salutations my Fallout lovers I used to be a fallout lover but I'm not really a fallout lover anymore hmm I wonder why it is Matty here today and I wanted to discuss with all of you a topic that's been in the back of my head for a while now that I just want to get out there why is fallout 4 so incredibly disappointing and asked what is with people loving hating fallout for this sort of a malformed question I think I bet most people don't love to hate the game most people would obviously rather this game be fantastic nobody likes droppin 60 bucks plus on a game and then having it suck and I don't think it's because people love to hate the game I think a lot of people got the game were incredibly disappointed by it and we're very glad to find that they weren't the only one who thought that they reveled in the idea of this communal disappointment by what should have been a dub s game ever now I'm saying this from the perspective of someone who when the game launched I was like this is the best thing since sliced bread first off what the hell is happening to your framerate dear God second of course you said that of course you didn't you have a Bethesda based channel of course you're going to say that then it was exposed for its flaws and I said you know what I still really love this game but it's clearly flawed but it's been over a year now since the game launched and there seems to be this hyper focus still on emphasizing the fact that fond ofor was a disappointment flaw for was the worst game to ever come out fallout 4 sucks and so on and to me I wonder why people feel the need to constantly harp on that it's really it's a mystery to you I don't buy that for a New York minute people are often harshest in terms of criticism on the games that they are disappointed by take a game like ride to hell retribution regarded by the human race as the worst game ever made nobody cared about this game nobody was excited for it nobody was invested in it nobody cared it was just some game and it was really bad and we loved how bad it was because it was so bad and everyone loves angry Joe when he's on his little rant but we didn't have any connection to ride to hell retribution which made it so easy for us to almost callously make fun of it but maybe let's look at another game that we can use as an example by the same company of the same style with many of the same issues a game like Skyrim the Elder Scrolls kick Skyrim when Elder Scrolls 6 Skyrim came out it was the god of video games people adored it it was on everyone's mind the memes were just they were everywhere my god the memes my god the memes I used to something something something then I took an arrow to the knee guys cuz that's the thing he says is that game cuz they okay it took souls now like fallout 3 new vegas skyrim oblivion look it's the same deal and it happens over and over and over again and i was with a lot of games bethesda just happens to make a lot of them where the point hits you start off on this really high point where it's new and flashy and then as the game gets older and you get more used to it as the shiny new toy feeling fades away you start to recognize the issues with a game for which let's be frank skyrim has a [ __ ] ton of i still haven't beaten it i don't really have any desire to go and beat it i'm pretty close i think i just don't give a damn now let's look at a game like fallout 4 which suffered and is suffering now fallout 4 it's in that dark night of the soul kind of area here we're no longer traipsing through the wilderness and a flashy new game gaping in amazement like a hun at the gates of Rome after the shiny new game appeal wears off we start looking for all the things we were promised all the things we were led to believe because once again we were promised so so much by well including but not limited to Bethesda's very own Todd Howard the every mountain can be climbed guy I mean the fact that he tells untruths or exaggerated them to where they're practically untrue is legendary there are even Nexus mods for Skyrim called Todd Howard in The Book Of Lies and there's also a fallout 4 version called Todd Howard and The Forgotten lies for me fallout 4 was starting at a point where I thought it would be amazing and then noticing it wasn't really that amazing and then kind of being like oh well it's not terrible and then proceeding from there people are very harsh on fallout 4 and rightfully so because they love the game because the Bethesda games give them amazing experiences they feel connected it's almost personal in a way and when people are disappointed by games that they think are gonna be amazing or that they feel so connected to it's more important than when a crappy game comes out that they don't care about this is not a video designed to help defend fought for yes it is Matt let's come on that's exactly what this video is it's more so me asking why are people obsessed with hating games for me I rather divert my attention personally to games I love to games I enjoy maybe instead of saying fallout 4 is the worst game ever it was the disappointment you say yourself you'd rather divert your attention to games that you love you kind of answer your own question and you don't give it any second thought fallout is a series that people love elder scrolls it's a series that people love and like I said we've reached the point where it's a year after release that all the flaws and the problems with these games can finally be seen and they're out in the open because we're no longer you know thrilled up this shiny new game kind of appeal that video games tend to have cuz they're an experience fallout 4 was supposed to be that thing and it really wasn't that thing it was worse it was a disappointment it didn't represent a leap forward for the series it was at best right at best fallout 4 was a sidestep from New Vegas and I think a lot of people who play both do not consider fallout 4 the superior I certainly do not is fallout 4 bad no absolutely it's not a bad game think but when you consider that New Vegas came out in 2010 and New Vegas came out in 2015 you ask yourself will apart from the graphics and how it looks where exactly is the 5 years worth of improvement because a lot of us couldn't find it it sucked no role-playing yadda yadda yadda how you kind of gloss over it when you say it doesn't have enough RPG elements but really that's something that crucify is this game for a lot of people it's kind of what killed it for me it's why one of the most apt descriptions of Fallout 4 is it's an ocean of content with the depth of a mud puddle fallout 3 Fallout New Vegas were very capable role-playing games RPGs and the general sense the colloquial sense Fallout 4 was not really bad it was dumbed down it was definitely simplified and it didn't need to be it didn't step forward it step back about putting out some ideas on how to improve the title instead of just abruptly bashing it in an unintelligent way yeah this is the kind of [ __ ] that makes me think that you are using this video to defend a fallout 4 from criticism in this weird blanket sort of way if I play a shooter game and there's a weapon that's overpowered that doesn't mean I'm obligated in the same comment to think about what changes need to be made to it does it need to have reload adjusted magazine adjusted minimum maximum damage drop off of a bullet speed total this that and the other thing iron sight variability it's gone this can be complex stuff but it's easy to point out that there's a flaw in the game if someone says this game is boring they're not obligated to say well what things would make it exciting because really what you're asking people at that point is oh you have a problem with a game well okay now you make one go and it should be kind of obvious when people say the RPG elements were dumbed down there are literally things that were in New Vegas that do not exist at all in Fallout 4 implying that it is unintelligent of people to say that the RPG elements of Fallout 4 were dumbed down without on-the-spot presenting ways to make it better and RPG elements in a game again that's game design which game companies [ __ ] up all the time it's not simple it's not easy voltic all those people unintelligent that's acid and it makes you look like an [ __ ] it's become commonplace while scrolling through my comments where each day I see intelligent discussion or people who just despise fallout 4 and watch my videos to tell me how much they hate fallout 4 and will it make sense to tell you you're the Bethesda Channel don't you think the model 10 a hunter in battlefield 1 is Opie as [ __ ] but it's not gonna do much good if I go and tell seananners about it and I'm like is this me I'll go to other Bethesda youtubers and people will be engaged in this never-ending discussion on if thought for it was a [ __ ] game or not and it feels like anyone who likes fallout 4 has to explain themselves now and well they don't have to of course this is the Internet you can literally just just walk away from it but when people tell me that they love to fallout 4 I legitimately am curious as to what they loved about fallout 4 because it does nothing really all that well I mean art design and the common well sure but that goes back to ocean of content depth of a mud puddle I'm legitimately curious why some people are in love with this game because I don't see it I love The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt it's like my favorite game ever so when someone says that they hate it to me I want to know why why do they hate it and I love it this brings back an interesting loop that I think a lot of people can relate to is if you were one of the people who originally loved Fallout New Vegas before fallout 4 came out you know exactly who you are out there the people who would combat between obsidian and Bethesda people would say oh but those is the best and if you like New Vegas you were a sinner and guess what now vice-versa and we have people who need to love New Vegas because that is the definitive Fallout game if you like fallout 4 you don't know what's good for the series I have no interest in these little squabbles be they real or imagined and I have a tendency that you're blowing it far out of proportion because it's what helps you make fallout 4 look good which I believe is ultimately the purpose of this video claims that are asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence new Vegas took something that fallout 3 was and improved on it in most aspects but what did Skyrim improve on from Morrowind sorry oblivion what's the dip Lydian keep better than morrowind actually now I'm thinking about it I mean we see this trend of the game is getting simpler and simpler and simpler more and more and more shallow and people like me who love these open-world RPG games if you can call fallout 4 even an RPG at all at this point we're worried we're worried at the direction the series is going because a lot of these for one thing they're designed decisions these are not technical limitations Bethesda is going out of their way especially with Fallout 4 they just went out of their way to make design decisions that were dumb and were overly simplistic and made the game basically Call of Duty with an inventory in a quest system and a fallout can of paint which was the best thing about Fallout 4 by the way was the can of paint the most fun I had and fallout 4 was looking at all the things and not doing the things and since it's a game I should have way more fun doing things and looking at things I mean if not they're just making a movie I personally think that stance is unfair as each fallout game expresses a different strength in the franchise and I'm not gonna get into that discussion today because what we are no no I'm not letting that slide [ __ ] what is the strength of Fallout 4 in Fallout 4 what is the strength of the franchise in Fallout 4 really tell me I I'm legitimately in in the comments all right if you're gonna leave a comment that doesn't concern my genitals then go and leave a comment telling me what you think that is cuz I have no idea what it is what is the strength of Fallout 4 in the franchise and before you say oh it's the graphics well then you're gonna say that about the next fallout and the next fall out every new fallout is gonna be graphics cuz it's been five years since the last fallout the graphics better damn well be the best it's why people just can't accept that I didn't like this game alright that's it move on there's been tons of games where all gamers here that we have played and just don't feel the need to harp on right yeah well not all games are as popular as the fallout franchises or the Elder Scroll series is in Bethesda is an EXOR ibly linked to both of those things fallout it's a series that people give a damn about it's a franchise people love it slower that interests people the same thing happened with battlefront for instance because we love Star Wars so much we were so disappointed with how dice and EA handled the reboot these are games that are huge and massive and scope and size for the most part they're games people are passionate about which is why we still argue about them today and because well it's a fun discussion to have a lot of the times the Y's fall out for that one exception work each time it's brought up I got to be like yo you've got to know this man this game is bad again it's because people are passionate about the series and about the games that this company makes and they want their opinions to be heard and they want to discuss with people the reason for those opinions that's why if there's a scandal in NFL everybody's talking about it but if there's a scandal in the freakin Lithuanian curling team I mean no one really cares the other issue I really do have with the negative discussion of fought for is there's a big difference between saying a game is bad and saying a game is a disappointment if you had high expectations in the game didn't meet that and part of the blame is going to fall on you but yes well I mean yeah sure in a way but when you look at games like like fallout 4 and Skyrim a lot of the blame is to be placed on the people who are the developers of the game who are making the claims about the game for instance if you were disappointed in no man's sky that's not your fault you were explicitly told that things would be in that game and they simply weren't there it's not your fault that you were disappointed it's someone told you a lie someone misrepresented something and oddly enough this applies to fallout 4 quite a bit mr. Howard part of the blame falls onto the game for its mechanics that didn't satisfy your urges but no no no not satisfy my urges meet the expectations that were set by the advertisers if I buy a sports car and it is explicitly advertised by the race car creator that this car will go from zero to 60 miles an hour in 3.5 seconds and I can never get it to go fast at only the best it'll do is 0 to 60 and five point five seconds it's not my fault for being disappointed it is the fault of the advertisers for misrepresenting the product and it'll hurt doubly so if I'm a car enthusiast see the parallel a bad game is not fall out for a bad game is ride to hell retribution a bad game is Rogue Warrior you know obligatory bad is subjective here I mean I know you're all thinking it but it has to be said I had someone in a stream today actually tell me he thought fallout 4 was [ __ ] I can't blame him those are bad video games games that don't have good gameplay design like fallout horrible stories like fallout are embarrassing that I played on my channel to laugh at like fallout those are bad video games to say 5 4 is amidst the category of bad games is laughable I hope at this point in my channel's life you know that I'm not making this video just to defend fallout 4 I yeah but let's be honest here that's exactly what this videos for hidden it you can't make a video where you say that calling it a bad games laughable and then say I'm not here to defend fallout 4 you can't do that that's not how this works you can't say what you just said and then follow that up with oh this isn't a video to defend fallout 4 it absolutely is it has been 100% a video to defend fallout 4 this does not shock me at all from a channel who has Bethesda games as its bread and butter there's nothing wrong with that but let's just be honest about what your intentions are you're here to defend fallout 4 made various videos defending Bethesda or attacking them on policies that they've brought up but this is one instance where I'm gonna stand there and be like if you didn't like fallout 4 that's great if you like fallout 4 that's great but to call it a bad game is honestly disrespectful what to call it a bad game is honestly disrespectful no I I must have misheard you to call it a bad game is honestly disrespectful to call it a bad game is disrespectful are you [ __ ] [ __ ] me calling fallout 4 is disrespectful Sahu Bethesda or to you are they being disrespectful to the developers or are they being disrespectful to you when they say it do you take offense to that is that something that bothers you I ask the question I know the answer you obviously are very bothered that people are saying this about fallout 4 fallout 4 is one of the most disappointing in underwhelming games I have ever played I just got done with a titanfall 2 campaign alright I had more fun in the 4 hours of the titanfall 2 single-player then I ever had with fallout 4 ok I mean you you have constantly said in this video I'm not using this video to defend fallout 4 or Bethesda [ __ ] off you are absolutely doing that ok you cannot say calling a game I like is disrespectful in a video that you claim isn't to defend that game maybe some people out there don't instantly recognize the dissonance between these two ideas you're putting forth but I'm a little smarter than the average bear I can read you like a [ __ ] book let's unpack it shall we let's unpack this let's whip this out for everyone to see calling a game bad is not disrespectful to anybody it is you describing a game that you think is bad you're just butthurt people think it's bad you've attached yourself to this game you've given it a connection to you that maybe is a little unhealthy if you're willing to go out and say if you call it bad you're being disrespectful you've leeched onto this product this item so much that you're willing to go out there in front of thousands of people and say that if you think this is bad you are being disrespectful it's one thing to say that you're wrong I guess but to assume that they're being disrespectful is ridiculous if someone came up to me and said The Witcher 3 is a bad game I wouldn't say that they're being disrespectful because that would be a dumb thing to say so it would be contrary to my nature have you ever considered that Todd fallout 3 has 200 endings Howard maybe hype them up for something that wasn't real or told them just disingenuous things and now they think the game is bad because it didn't meet their expectations maybe they legitimately didn't like the way that all the mechanics work together and fallout 4 which is not a stretch to say because of how well the mechanics of fallout 4 aren't really all that great fallout 4 is fantastic to look at it's not exactly the best thing in the world to play so when someone says it's a bad game I mean it's not it's not a long leap from saying that this game which it is more fun for me to be looking at things instead of actually playing is a bad video game I mean that's why I'd say like infinite is like a bad video game because it's boring and dull and the only thing good about it is the cutscenes in the art look let's [ __ ] it let's let's just go let's keep going I'm done with this bit because that's that's stupid there's my video title right there that's that's probably why I'm gonna call this video cuz I don't know I don't know I'm gonna title these videos until I'm done and it's like uploading calling fallout 4 bad is disrespectful [ __ ] off you fanboy if you didn't strike your fancy it disappointing you though fair enough man good if it didn't strike your fancy or if it disappointed you that's fair enough but if you say it's a bad game then you're just being disrespectful do you listen to yourself but on you feel free to express those thoughts in a way where Bethesda can learn from their mistakes not in a way that's just gonna make him scratch their head and be like what's wrong with this dude now what's wrong with this guy who didn't like our game series Bethesda's not a bunch of retards a lot of the issues with Paul for our design decisions they weren't technical limitations or anything like that you're just getting upset at the people who said the game sucked or he said they didn't like the game Bethesda knows exactly what you mean when you say the RPG elements were dumbed down they know exactly what you mean when you say the AI is bad Bethesda isn't stupid well though sometimes they make me wonder as you can tell though this is a entirely unscripted video where I just [ __ ] about how people didn't like fallout that's what you do in this video needed to rain man this has just been something out the bottling up for so long it's like I get it I get it fallout four wasn't the best game ever but still a good game a decent game if anything yeah we know you're upset we know you're butthurt we know you're angry we know that you as a bethesda channel had a bethesda game release and it wasn't really all that great I'll bet you felt some sort of an obligation to love this game and adore it and I bet it really really bothers you that so many people don't think it's a decent game at all you can't make a video saying this totally isn't coming to the defense of fallout 4 when you say stuff like this has been inside of me for so long I just had to get it out all these people complaining about fallout 4 it legitimately bothers you that people don't like your precious Bethesda game you dislike that so much you're willing to say people who thought it's bad are being disrespectful to your company and I'm gonna say your company here because I think it's extremely appropriate what's worse is when you got those people who say I play fallout 4 for 200 or so hours but yeah that's pretty disappointing game I'm like how do you spend that much time that's multiple days of your life in a game that you said you didn't like it baffles me how you come across as someone who's so foolish to assume that hours played has a direct correlation with the quality of those hours I have almost 1100 hours in dayz but the quality per hour of those hours compared to titanfall to's is not even comparable I said before fallout 4 was the ocean of content with the depth of a mud puddle it took me over a hundred hours just to find all the stuff just look at all the Jace's it took me a hundred hours to search out all of the things that I actually did enjoy about fallout which is a very short list the arch and the locations were really the only things I enjoyed about fallout 4 and it takes you a lot of time to visit all those places and squeeze out all the enjoyment you can from the game once I'd gone to all the locations I could find I stopped playing and had no desire to return a lot of us spent time in the game looking for what was supposed to be so great searching high and low in not finding it and by the time we realized this game wasn't what its potential should have been when we realized it was truly a disappointment compared to Fallout New Vegas for instance all those times well the hours had passed I don't know about you guys but I'm at that point now where I'm about 10 hours into a game and it's not hooking me unless I'm reviewing it and the publisher was generous enough to provide me with a review copy in my situation I'm not finishing that game well that's you applying vats everybody is foolish of course at this point in the video I've come to expect nothing less of you have you ever considered that some people don't get review copies for games and have to spend $60 and for some people $60 is a lot of money and they want to try to squeeze as much enjoyment as they possibly can out of a game or at least enough hours spent in the game and fallout 4 definitely does offer a lot of time that can be spent looking at things possibly even doing things but that doesn't mean just because you've sunk a lot of hours into something means that you had to like it or enjoy it immensely or think it's even decent almost all of my time in dayz for instance was spent chasing the next thrill and a lot of the times it would take me hours upon hours upon hours of wandering about and hoping and wishing until I got that 10 minutes or 10 seconds of exhilaration I know all of you out there have lives you have important things to do and I imagine that if you like the game them you probably would put 200 hours into it anyway I do know a lot of you guys out there share my thoughts on this subject just a lot of people are afraid to say that because they tend to get attacked for it because in 2016 disagreement and criticism is an attack that said you'll probably think this video was an attack video regardless I know the conversation will lead to whether or not fought for is good or bad but what I wanted to be focused on hopefully with this video is just the discussion of why people think it's bad so no no no no no Maddie you know as well as I know that this video isn't meant to instigate the discussion of whether or not fallout 4 is a quality title or not in your mind that was settled long long ago the point of this video is for you to soapbox and defense of Fallout 4 because well if people think it's bad well they're just being disrespectful there is no discussion to be had you said yourself in this video there's no possible way anybody could truly think this game is anything less than decent let's see where it goes in the comment I'm looking forward to the interaction but just don't be disrespectful and safe fallout 4 is bad sure to follow me on Twitter like me on Facebook blah blah blah this is really the first video of his that I've watched and based on it I'm really disappointed in the attitude that he has the attitude he has towards the game the gamers people's opinions of it how disingenuous he is this kind of I don't know the way he talks about it it's clearly designed to not want to discuss it I mean when you say outright that thinking fallout 4 is a bad game means you're being disrespectful what is that supposed to say to people the gamers come first not the games and you should certainly treat the people playing the games better than the games themselves
