The player explores the game's dilapidated world, completes various quests, helps out factions, and acquires experience points to level up and increase the abilities of their character. After witnessing the murder of their spouse and kidnapping of their son, the Sole Survivor ventures out into the Commonwealth to search for their missing child.

The player assumes control of a character referred to as the "Sole Survivor", who emerges from a long-term cryogenic stasis in Vault 111, an underground nuclear fallout shelter. The main story takes place in the year 2287, ten years after the events of Fallout 3 and 210 years after "The Great War", which caused catastrophic nuclear devastation across the United States. It makes use of a number of local landmarks, including Bunker Hill, Fort Independence, and Old North Bridge near Concord, as the bridge out of Sanctuary Hills. The game is set within an open world post-apocalyptic environment that encompasses the city of Boston and the surrounding Massachusetts region known as "The Commonwealth". It is the fourth main game in the Fallout series and was released worldwide on November 10, 2015, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Maybe by update 1.8 I won’t feel the need to create a separate save file every three minutes.Fallout 4 is an action role-playing game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. I love Fallout 4, but the number of quests that could leave you dead in the water and unable to proceed still blows my mind. You can check out the full list here and how to access the beta update. Highlights include fixes to the Demolition and Grim Reaper perks, and cleaning up some of the many progress stalling quest bugs that are still in the game. The update also ushers in the usual bug and quest fixes you expect from a Fallout patch. All I need now is an alligator wearing sunglasses and maybe one of those singing fish. The update includes a slew of new settlement knick-knacks including the already mentioned super mutant and raider themed clutter, road signs, new paintings and portraits, and thankfully, more metal and wooden door options (I was getting tired of seeing the same metal shed door on every building). The 1.4 beta update (only available on the PC) is bringing me one step closer to living the dream. Basically, I want to be able to make a family restaurant for cannibal thrill killers.

If there’s one thing I’ve always felt my settlements in Fallout 4 were missing, it was a mishmash of dismembered bodies hastily lashed together in a wire mesh and hung off the highest barricade to intimidate my foes.
