stability11 negative mentions
  • Powerful and versatile tool that allows deep modding of Fallout 4, enabling creation of new content, items, NPCs, and quests.
  • Strong modding community support with abundant tutorials and resources, making it possible to learn and create complex mods over time.
  • Enables fixing and improving game features beyond the base game, adding to the enjoyment and longevity of Fallout 4.
  • Highly unstable with frequent crashes, bugs, and corrupted saves, which cause frustration and loss of work.
  • User interface is outdated, unintuitive, and cumbersome, leading to a steep learning curve and a poor user experience.
  • Recent updates and Steam integration introduced installation issues and broken compatibility, complicating modding and requiring workarounds.

  • stability

    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The stability of the game is widely criticized for being highly buggy, prone to crashes, freezes, and memory leaks. Users find it slow, error-filled, and difficult to use, with a notably unstable viewport renderer. Although some acknowledge occasional upsides, overall it is considered a frustrating and unstable experience.

    • “What is this slow, buggy, limited in features and settings, not easy to understand even as a modder myself, error and crash filled...”
    • “It's slow, buggy, crashes a lot and a nightmare to use.”
    • “App freezes and sometimes crashes.”

  • graphics

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    33% positive mentions, 17% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions

    The graphics are consistently described as blurry and outdated, lacking clarity and developer polish. Compared to modern engines like Unreal and Unity, the visual fidelity is low, resulting in a disappointing and eye-straining experience.

    • “In comparison, both UE and Unity offer play-in-editor which simulates the visuals and game experience you would get in a compiled game in high fidelity.”
    • “I typically use this to make personalized areas (like where I live in Massachusetts) or aesthetic fixes/builds like changing the settlement Hangman's Alley to have access to the boarded up buildings in the settlement.”
    • “After you figure out how to get something in the viewport (which can take some time), you only get blurry visuals that make you wonder the age of this software.”
    • “Graphics making our eyes bleed.”
    • “There's no developer aesthetics at all.”

  • story

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions

    The story in the game is heavily impacted by numerous quest bugs and glitches, such as NPCs giving multiple quests at once or repeating lines endlessly. Despite extensive player effort to create and fix quests, these issues significantly detract from the overall storytelling experience.

    • “But the quest creation...oh my goodness.”
    • “I was quite happy, as after over 24 hours of work I got the quest to work perfectly.”
    • “After 160 additional hours of trying, many YouTube tutorials watched, and many crashes, I finally managed to get a basic fetch quest and NPC working.”
    • “Broke Preston so badly he gives me 4 quests at once and then clips through the floor.”
    • “To my dismay, the quest had broken.”
    • “The character would only say the opening line of the quest over and over.”

  • monetization

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Users express strong dissatisfaction with the game's monetization, specifically criticizing intrusive microtransactions and excessive advertising for unrelated games.

    • “Microtransactions make us cry.”
    • “Microtransactions make us cry.”
    • “The pig is busy advertising for games you will never play.”

  • optimization

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The optimization of the Creation Kit is widely criticized for being outdated and under-optimized, with issues such as poorly functioning scripts, inefficient lip file generation, and problems with level of detail (LOD) handling. Users find the editor cumbersome, buggy, and difficult to navigate, requiring personal patches to fix key features.

    • “If you view it as a game engine, the Creation Kit is seriously outdated, under-optimized, ugly, and anti-human in many aspects.”
    • “The editor is under-optimized and seems to have problems with LODs.”
    • “The Creation Kit has many faults; for dungeon and world editing/creation, it's incredibly annoying trying to figure out what is what. I've had to patch it personally twice to get certain features working (scripts not working, lip file generation is poorly optimized), and I'm still trying to figure out why the Protectron skin doesn't work properly (the gorilla one does though, which is funny).”

  • humor

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The humor is noted mainly through amusing glitches, such as the protectron skin issue compared to the gorilla one, providing some comedic relief amidst the creation kit's technical frustrations. Overall, the humor arises unintentionally from the tool's quirks rather than deliberate comedic content.
