I felt they were very poor effort games, unimaginative, and devoid genuine, emergent storytelling. I found the "Minecraft style" build a base mode in Fallout 4 a completely useless feature, which, to me - didn't add to the feeling of living in an apocalyptic world.

Perhaps it was the positioning and the whole "build whatever you want", but it felt like a bad idea to build what to me was essentially a "prepper deck" in the middle of a crossroads, where peope would very easily find it.

I tried very, very hard to like everything past Fallout 3, and I just couldn't do it at all.
