Play it again on survival, it sincerely is like playing an entirely different game. I agreed with them, and was very much let down by the experience then and still am now. I know because I played it on release and most major outlets had that stance on it.

I know I'm not the majority and that there is a major circlejerk regarding fallout new vegas, but with time I believe the underratedness of 4 will be acknowledged by the fanbase, much like new vegas wasn't really loved at the time of release and most people regarded it as an inferior entry to the series compared to 3. You weren't encourage to go on your own and make your own adventure, and that's why 4 is such an improvement upon it. New Vegas didn't reward exploration beyond the main roads, and when it did, there was always a quest leading you to a certain location. And even if you somehow get through them, there's nothing of value after. The map design in that game is horrible, it railroads you in the direction the developers wanted, and everywhere you're not supposed to be is either empty or filled with impossibly hard enemies.

Recently I even replayed both 3 and new vegas with the Tale of Two Wastelands mod and good lord, New Vegas is definitely my least favorite. Having played all 3D Fallout games in order of release, I can safely say people that dismiss 4 as 'a good game but not a good fallout game' just make my eyes roll. I had to check the map and make a plan on how I would get from point A to point B. Not being able to fast travel and only saving when I slept made the game much more immersive and oppressive. You were no longer required to play stealth or with vats because the gunplay didn't suck anymore.ДЄnd the survival difficulty was by far the definitive way to experience Fallout 4 for me.

On the improvement side the scrap system, gun customization and base building made complete sense in a post apocalyptic setting like fallout.ДЄlthough there was less agency since we we're playing a certain character with a certain background this time, instead of a blank slate, we had much more freedom to customize our build and play style.

So much hidden lore in holotapes, visual story telling and the graphics made getting into the world a lot easier. There were a lot of varied quests and companions with great personalities that would react to your actions and certain key moments in the game. On the most basic stuff you still had 4 factions to align with, all with different goals that sometimes could overlap but were mostly very different. I think 4 implemented so much that enriched the experience and immersion of Fallout that it doesn't deserve to be called 'less of an RPG'.
