It would seem that so many games have been released in the world of fallout that it is impossible to come up with something new. But fortunately, we continue to be delighted with new adventures of the wonderful series.
The game has improved its appearance, moved to new latitudes, and prepared to tell a new chapter from the post-apocalyptic history of the post-apocalyptic States. About how raiders go on a robbery spree, super mutants terrify, ordinary farmers make ends meet, and of course, the knights of the Brotherhood of Steel are brilliant (though not always) heroic.
The main distinguishing features are advanced crafting and settlement construction.
And if with the first everything, pole minus, is immediately clear, then you can write a lot about the second. We are given more than just the opportunity to invest and observe changes. Everything will have to be done by hand, literally. Do you want to build something? Find materials, choose a location, install, supply electricity if necessary, think about safety and food. Etc. etc.
In other words, sandbox elements were brought into the familiar world of fallout. But only time will tell what this will lead to.
