Generally a great attitude. Just don't throw the baby with the bathwater. And I think the best comparison here is fallout 3 Vs fallout 1-2


I'm not throwing anything out. I just say that I am not one of these persons, who don't understand that new games often vary in mechanics and systems from older entries in the same game series. The fact is: 20 years ago games were built simpler and also often in a very similar engine, maybe a few tweaks. See BG1/2, Diablo1/2 and many other games of this generation. But modern games have much more possibilities and that can be used to create great systems. But doing something different always has potential to do something people don't like. I for one think Fallout 4 is not very much an RPG anymore, but i appreciate the settlement system. I hope that FO5 will have this kind of player impact in the world, while also having way better RPG elements.

Some people here are just being salty because there is no hamster in this game (yet), which I just find are weird expectations.
