So all it takes is some random dude 20 hours in to discourage you from playing it? Man id hate to be that easily influenced

Not the random dude influences me, but the facts (game looks like shit and dialogue system has been butchered).

And you got all this from a 20min youtube video with shit quality? Wow, impressive!

FTR dialogue choices have been butchered since FO Tactics. Im over it. This is gonna be awesome.

There is a 2h video of gameplay on piratebay.
Game seem to be shit, pure shit.

Dialogue wheel option look like you are playing the old f2 mentaly deficient perk all the time.

Graphics are so-so. Not Really important i guess but it does not seem they really worked hard on it also.

Game seem to be a pewpew adventure game.
Good for casuals I guess, not good for pre fallout 3 fans.

Only mods will save bethesda once again.

I have a terrible feeling 4 is going to be like 3, lots of pointless fetch quests, etc. Witcher 3 set the bar pretty high, and Bethesda is well known anymore for endless waves of boring crap if you get off the main storyline.

but if its a fetch quest for say a one of a kind unique violin that is in a vault, and going into the vault and looking for the violin, you uncover that the government had been experimenting on the vault dwellers with white noise to make them all super crazy and aggressive and instructing the vault overseer to cover it up and redact all the logs etc. Seems worth to me. The fetch quest turns into preface for the entire world.

whatched leaked gameplay.

The dialogue option look like its made for 10 year olds.

I'm perfectly fine with this. Its a shooter with RPG elements. If I want novels for each potential answer ill play Torment.

It's actually an RPG with shooter elements, at least that's what 3 was. Shitty dialogue makes the RPG part worse, lets hope the shooting got better compared to 3...

Just watched the launch trailer after leaving the research lab I'm in. Definitely becoming emotionally jaded. I thought I was getting all excited and then realized it was nothing but anxiety that the trailer builds up so much hype and all I can think of is "not going to be there for me."

The rest of my graduating semester is going to be oh so much fun.

Exactly. If you saw my first post on the other page, this trailer gave me all the hype today - until it led back to incredibly affect-draining depression moments later.

Found out I can get another copy of Windows 10 for free through my college's software system so to build a desktop from scratch that could handle the minimum I would still need ~$560 depending on the current promo deals. Don't have a job and even if I did that money needs to go towards food and rent.

Can you maybe go through loans and bursaries and pretend it's for "school"?

I'm already in enough debt as it is without having a career path worked out properly because I had always anticipated going straight to graduate school and that simply is not happening now. My mom has shouldered most of my debt and that is straining my resources as it is. FAFSA doesn't give a flying fuck that my parents are divorced and my dad has avoided paying anything in the last 9-10 years or so for my brother and I. It also pretends that he is also funding my college education and says no to grants or larger loans I could have been getting at lower interest rates once I'm out of college.
PSA: I also did not know when moving off campus that FAFSA suddenly pretends that you are able to live the life of a hobo and does not take living expenses into account if you move out of the dorms. Even if living off campus is ~200 a month cheaper than being forced to take a meal plan for food that has the quality of 3 minute ramen.

Not trying to make anybody concerned that they are watching me breakdown in real time over the forum. It is just the sudden shock of reality getting to me that literally the only way I could have saved up and prepped for this release was if I never went to college in the first place. So my most realistic option now is to work my ass off finding a job while I'm on crutches over winter break after graduation and hopefully save up enough to actually build a decent rig within a year or so.

Small part of me is hoping my laptop or my gf's desktop could handle the game for at least 20min at a time before crashing if absolutely necessary in order to play. But the pessimistic side of me is assuming that games check for ram and will automatically reject playing on my 6gb laptop at all and my gf's lack of a dedicated graphics card bricks her computer as an option.

I was in a similar situation while in school. Get an Xbox One at that point, it will do the job for less.

They even have a Fallout 4 bundle
