The dated character models, antiquated engine-the entire presentation is just mediocre at best. When it comes to lip-syncing and animations, it's even worse.
Even still, I'm almost inclined to agree with my colleague Jason Evangelho when he writes that the game's graphics 'don't matter.' With Fallout 4, I remained pretty hopeful that the game would look better than early screenshots indicated.
There's just no reason Fallout 4 should look as low-rent as this.I'm not a graphics purist. We're well into the current console generation, and there's already been a bunch of really incredible looking games, from Batman: Arkham Knight to the latest Tomb Raider. And the same is true here in Bethesda's latest. I felt less immersed in the world than before. When The Witcher 3 came out looking, in my humblest of opinions, worse than The Witcher 2, that mattered to me.
