I saw a video in which some characters of the Fallout tv show open a fridge and find an alien and just toss it out because they want the working fridge. I’ve never understood (or really bothered with) why Fallout had the nuclear “event” which triggered the use of the shelters. Was it an alien invasion?
… How have you managed to play literally any other game then? It had decent graphics for 2015 and holds up ok today. If it looks that bad to you I can’t imagine you’re able to play anything but the most pristine AAAA games.
I’ve played Skyrim twice over. I’ve finished GTA Vice City. I’ve finished the first God of War. I’ve finished Far Cry… 4? The Nepal one.
Don’t act smart.
Okay but Skyrim looks worse than Fallout 4, and Vice City looks like that. I guess I’m just even more surprised now that Fallout 4 supposedly made you nauseous if you could handle those other games.
When you say “first God of War” do you mean 2018 or the actual first one on PS2?
The PS2 one. And yes, I know Skyrim looks janky af. I still play to this day and I feel fine. I was looking at the clip of Fallout 4 the other day and it made me nauseous! Makes me irritated that I paid good money for it on the Xbox One way back when.
Is it motion sickness or is it just a weird “general gross” feeling?
First time I was actually pukish. Like, a switch flipped while playing the game one day and I just couldn’t sit with the game any more.
After doing some research on the art style and choices of the makers, it was irritation and a general gross feeling along with the pukishness.
So… What choices did the artists make to give you that feeling? Because again, the only thing I can find when I search for people getting sick while playing FO4 is just motion sickness, and then all the comments mention other first-person games they have similar issues with and that going third-person helps alleviate that.
I guess I’m still confused why anyone would get queasy playing a first-person game and it isn’t motion sickness. Like you don’t hear people complaining about getting queasy when they play any of the Doom games for example.
I was playing third person and yeah I guess you could call it motion sickness. I didn’t bother diagnosing it beyond trying a few more times and coming out with an absolutely crushing sickness feeling. I even tried going first person and it didn’t help.
And yeah, the graphics being weird and blocky and old school being the cause? It felt weird.
Have played Tomb 2, Shadow Warrior, Carmagegeddon. Never felt this feeling. Never felt it with any other game either. Well, except with the Oculus Rift 2. That definitely made me pukish.
That’s what I’m thinking. OP might be some 180 mhz, 120 fps, whatever overclocking to get the most out of the game type of person. Which is fine, but when it holds you back from enjoying a large percent of all video games ever released, it’s a little ridiculous.
ETA: in fact I just did a couple-hundred-hour playthrough a couple months ago and it looked fine. A little muddy cause it’s like 11 years old now, but it still looks good imo. The stylization really helps to make it not look as dated. Also I used a shitload of power armor mods cause I wanted to be a collector of exotic armors. My favorite is probably the NCR PA based on the one from the show.
I was playing it on Xbox One. Not a hacker. So was definitely not overclocking the hardware to juice the game.
