Story
★★★★★
"Masterful"
Signed by Inon Zur, the music combines a desolate orchestra and nostalgic hits of the 1940s and 50s broadcast by the radio, from the Ink Spots to the crooners. This contrast between retro sweetness and devastated lands elevates the post-apocalyptic atmosphere. This singular sonic identity, ironic and touching, leaves a lasting mark.
Emerging from a vault to find his vanished father, a young man discovers the irradiated ruins of old America. Between retrofuturist nostalgia and stark moral choices, the tale turns exploration into a succession of striking human stories. Its freedom and disenchanted tone revived a cult saga.
Gameplay
"Excellent"
Fun
"Pleasant"
Addictiveness
"Obsessive"
Stepping out of the vault to discover a capital in ruins, freezing time in V.A.T.S. and deciding the fate of each encounter kicks off a loop of exploration where the next goal is born at every horizon. Improving your aptitudes and looting every corner reward the daring. Its heavy atmosphere and rigid combat date it, but the call of the ruins grips you for dozens of hours.
Difficulty
"Balanced"
Lifespan
"Massive"
The Capital Wasteland, already generous with side quests and corners to comb through, is rounded out here by the game's five expansions. Operation: Anchorage, The Pitt, Broken Steel and the rest extend the story past its original ending and raise the level cap. Gathering it all on one disc turns wandering the ruins into an adventure that never seems to run dry.
