Great game, fairly realistic. Best sounding firefights I've ever seen in a game.
Extremely fun to play with friends.
Some nice tactics / strategy can be done but I personally prefer ArmA in that regard.

All in all 9.5/10.

Fun game, great visuals, interesting story.
Controls and gameplay are really good. Better than any other flight game I've played while not too realistic.
Lots of cool upgrades and planes to play around with and achievements to unlock too, so you can definitely re-play this a few times and still have fun,

Got this as part of a bundle - didn't expect much but was pleasantly surprised

Was one of the many people who played it when it was in beta and bought it as soon as I could afford it after it came out as I was captivated even in the beta stage with all the bugs.

Had loads of fun playing this game, especially with a group of friends.
Community is largely much better than other games such as CS:GO. (Even though you get the occasional idiot who yells at your mother and calls you a special snowflake - I am a special snowflake though!)

11/10 would bang... uhhhh... I mean... you should really buy this game! It's also on sale right now!

TL;DR :
I recommend this game to anyone who wants to play a well built game with nice features and a *relatively* good story.
DO NOT expect it to be like the other fallout games - It isn't!

Pros:

The game is very optimized and runs constant 60 FPS on Very High on a 3.0 GHz CPU and a GTX 760 W/ 1.5GB VRAM.

The game looks gorgeous -> This is also a Con -> It is really different from the whole Fallout thing because its more colorful and artsy and even cartoony.

Lots of new features ! I love the crafting and the settlement building and multiple layered clothing! If you play with some mods then it's even better!

MODS! There are AMAZING mods out there that add SO MUCH to the game and the Modding kit hasn't even been released yet!

Both a con and a pro -> Voiced protagonists. I like the voiced protagonists but this is also subjective. Moreover, the fact that they are voiced narrowed down the ammount of choices / speech checks etc. you have.

Cons:

Very different from the whole Fallout theme that was set with FO3 and FONV.

A lot of things that I really liked in FO3 and FONV and added TONS of depth to the game are no longer present in FO4.
Even though there are lots of new things , they are not as deep as the previous fallout games.
You have a lot of options and things to do but you actually don't!

I personally liked the FO3 Story better but this is very subjective.

NOTE: This one can be *partially* fixed with some mods -> Dialogue, dialogue is now really simplified. So simplified that it just feels ♥♥♥♥♥♥ and not RPG like. Also, all the options have been narrowed down to 4 in every window. There are some speech checks here and there but they are very different from their FO3 counterparts. I see a lot of sarcastic options in almost every conversation but none of the other special options like perception or intelligence or charisma are seen as commonly as they were in FO3.

One of the things I liked most about FO3 is the genius , sarcastic, dark humor that was seen EVERYWHERE throught the game. FO4 lacks on that. A Lot.

Lots of people have been complainging A LOT about performance issues. I run a GTX 760 and an I5 with 8GB RAM which is basically the recommended settings and I run the game fine on high. But nobody can run it on anything higher.
The story line and the game in general is a lot worse than the other AC games.
You get random glitchy npcs walking up to you and asking you to join your friends game or buy a DLC while youre playing which completely ruins immersion. and microtransactions?! Really ubi?!.
Sometimes you spend an hour or so getting to an awesome chest just to find out that you HAVE TO DOWNLOAD SOME ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ APPLCATION OR SOME ♥♥♥♥ LIKE THAT TO USE IT.
No recommended until ubi fixes it and realizes it doesnt need money THAT much.

Awesome and immersive game, It had bugs and isnt written perfectly. But the gameplay compensates for it and even more.
