Find what you love and pursue it

- In today's Fallout 4 gameplay commentary we are talking about finding your passion. Video game players are losing the ability to discover games they love without first checking what the general consensus is. I want to encourage players to rediscover how to find your passion, to find media, games, and movies that you love. People are craving authenticity once again. This old school gameplay commentary is meant to be a reminder to discover and find things that you love and then pursue them. Sometimes checking out what the general consensus is is good, but often times it can make us enjoy things differently. Thanks for watching! #fallout #fallout4

DUDE yes! It sounds so simple but it's like we as a society have just... forgotten how
It's crazy. I'm guilty of it too, and there are some things it's absolutely worth checking before diving in, but I think people are losing the ability to form their own consensus and be confident in it
I felt the same way about Starfield. The first 10 hours were SO cool for me. Then I saw all the negativity online about it and I ended up refusing to watch any commentary videos. I knew that all the negativity would crush my enjoyment.
Sure, some criticism was valid and it is not a perfect game. But it was so nice to just enjoy the game myself and not care what other people thought.
4:25 Tbh this is a surprising statement for me to hear: that people consciously go into stuff almost wanting to have pre-conceived notions about a property.
If someone isn't forming their own opinions about art, and only repeating what others have said, then that opinion is useless. If you're only parroting what you heard online, if you actually can't explain why you liked/disliked something in your own words, you actually need to take a step back and re-evaluate your approach to life in general.
It's such an important skill to have, and so many people just don't have it or don't care to practice it.
And it contributes so much to misinformation or not doing your own research; for example, any time I hop into a live chat, the amount of people basically saying "Well I HEARD about this thing and I'm mad about it". And then you spend a few minutes looking up the topic and finding their view on it is skewed or totally false.
It's actually shocking how misinformed and lazy most people online are about the things they choose to get riled up about, when that information is right there for them to look further into.
People bandwagon so fast these days, and you're getting at exactly what I was hoping to convey in the video. It's good to read and listen to critique, but people need to still be able to form their own opinions
Ever since starfield, I've tried to stay away from game reviews and scores.
Consuming reviews before playing said games will 100% affect the way you look at the game.
I want to go back and try Starfield after the new update drops. I only got about 10 hours in.
@BBKDRAGOON I love the game, I tried the update on the steam beta and its fantastic, especially the difficulty settings, I'm excited for future updates and expansion.
The weakest part of starfield imo is the exploration, cause we are used to the way it's handled in fallout and skyrim.
The exploration in starfield is there, it's just handled differently.
@BBKDRAGOON it suffers from similar issues most Bethesda games had, the engine is limiting so there are loading screens, and the writing and main story is so-so. The gameplay itself is really fun and is a good sandbox to have fun in.
This guy just simply gets it ya know
Cheers, and thank you
Without spoiling anything, one fallout 4 DLC's writing will not disappoint, its a real diamond in the rough.
Thank you! I just started the one I think you're talking about and I'm pumped
Yeah, wasteland workshop had some of the best writing I've seen in a dlc
Far Harbor is terrible if that’s what you’re talking about
@@justsomeguyinouterspace8623 I think he's talking about automaton, best writings ever
This guy gets it. @@plutoniumrocks
Fallout 4 has been my goto game whenever I get tired of Destiny 2. Yup storyline is secondary, exploration is my favorite part of the game.
I love that! Excited for Final Shape?
@@BBKDRAGOON I am, I believe Bungie is going to nail the FS
I did not need to be reminded FO4 came out 9 years ago, god i feel old. The last 5 years feel like one fever dream. Maybe i need to go back and play something older and familiar too.
I have over 300 hours in Fallout 4. Played it a ton when it came out and came back to it many times over the years. I also have the Fallout fever since I watched the show and I started a new run of Fallout 4, again. I love this game so much. Not for the story, not the dialogue, but the gameplay, atmosphere. To me this is "what I love". Good video.
I really really like that, thank you! and I fully agree, the atmosphere, the exploration, and the world, that is Fallout to me. New Vegas has been awesome too, I need to keep going with my playthrough. Have a great weekend
@@BBKDRAGOON You have a new sub. Learned in another video from you that you are also (or were) a Destiny player ? This is my social game. Has been since 2017. I can relate with your stories. Have a nice day sir.
Yo thank you! Yeah, I LOVED Destiny 1. Incredible time, ran a Destiny news podcast with my good friend Ditty called Destiny The Show until 2019. I still think highly of Destiny, I dropped off after Forsaken, dipped back in for Beyond Light, and have been off the wagon since.
@@BBKDRAGOON Yeah I know the feeling. Bounced off the game for months at time but for some reasons I always go back to it. Final Shape is coming.
You are 100% right everything in fallout 4 is awesome to me except for two things, the leveling system and the writing if those two things, or hell even just if the writing was fixed it would be hands down best fallout
🤣🤣🤣
these are my favorite types of videos on the tube. Just a stream of thoughts from someone who wants to talk. keep it up bbk!
The gameplay loop is really fun in fallout 4, and environmental storytelling is easily one of Bethesda's strengths.
I decided to get back into emulation and installed the Xemu emulator for the original Xbox and man......did it bring back a major reminder of why I love gaming. Jet Set Radio Future, Project Gotham Racing, Amped, or even WWF Raw (which was always considered a mediocre game) and I freaking loved them! There was so much energy and gaming spirit behind them ensuring that you always had a smile on your face while playing. And I missed that.
Honestly makes it even more heartbreaking about Tango Gameworks. Hi-Fi Rush gave me that sense of "this is what gaming was always about"
Dude.... TANGO is so sad, HiFi was incredible and I just... it's hard time right now
Last year I went back and played The Last of Us Part 2 now that all the heat it got has died off, including my own knee jerk reaction that I had at the time. I was able to see the intention of the game in a much clearer light and appreciate it a lot more. I agree a lot with try to avoid the hive mind and black and whiteness of opinions on games, especially ones we love and are passionate about
100% agree with dragoon . I decided to stop looking at reviews and the internets perception of new games until after I beat the game for myself just so I have my own unaltered opinion of a game . Which believe it or not seeing opinons on the internet does sway ur opinons in games from my experience
Another reason I think why we enjoyed games more when we were younger . I have been enjoying a lot more games recently since I started doing this too
I started my Fallout journey with the first game in 1998 (it took them ~1 year to get it to Europe) and my Pentium 90 was the base system to play this game on. Because my uncle had a brand new Pentium 200, I mostly played the game on this PC for the first time. I later also played Fallout 2, Tactics, 3 and New Vegas right after release - and was blown away by the world, that was opened when the game went from top down 2D to full 3D. But Fallout 3 was not the game I loved the most - it was still 1 and 2. New Vegas really injected a lot of those open world elements that let you play the game "your way" back into the series (I finished my first play through on the "neutral" path). F3 DLCs started to get better, but they still could not touch everything the NV main storyline went through.
Since then, I have replayed the first two games more than a dozen times (for years it was a holiday ritual to replay F1 and F2 in a "different" way - high charisma/speech, dumb brute, fighting, etc.) and that's what I really missed with 4. So far, 4 is the only game in the series (even counting those non canon games), that I have not finished yet. Says a lot about the game, sadly. :( But now I managed to revive one of my broken save games (that crashed all the time - that's why I stopped playing F4 back then). So maybe now I'll manage to finish the game in the near future. 😁 As I already own the GOTY edition, I'll also have to play the DLCs afterwards - really looking forward to Far Harbor and its Lovecraftian vibe.
On that note: I also never finished Skyrim - same issue, but I could not revive my old save game with ~150+ h... 😥
I am loving my replay now more than when it came out. I think it was a bit complicated for me, but now I get it. It came out in the golden age of exciting shooters that stole my attention like Halo, Titanfall, Battlefield…. Buut those series all killed themselves. Now I can enjoy Fallout.
I love New Vegas. I also love Fallout 4. I also love Fallout 3 and Fallout 1. I'm playing Fallout 2 right now and am really enjoying it. I hate New Vegas fanboys screaming about how all the other games are trash. lol
I stopped watching reviews a few years ago before playing it myself first. I found the same issues with it creating a mindset prior to experiencing it myself. After I put some time into a game then I watch reviews to see what others think and if it falls in line with my own conclusions of how it is. And it's not just gaming it is shows too. I don't like GOT, but looking online it's the best show ever.
I like that a lot and great example, there were GOT seasons I really enjoyed but a lot of them, I just didn't get the hype
Was mad crazy on Rainbow six siege, so toxic had nothing but frustration, the Show made me come back to Fallout 4 and that brought all the good fun of single player games to me... Fallout 4 is not perfect the main plot sucks, but some side quests and gameplay are soo much fun, yes Power Armor is kinda OP and in every corner of the map but hey now I'm the IRON MAN of the Wastland haha
Always nice seeing you posted
Thanks esteban, hope you're doing good
Honestly listening to the reviews sometimes can keep you away from a game you would have otherwise enjoyed. I have held off getting Tales of Symphonia simply because I read the reviews. Sure maybe the older version is better but since it's not easily accessible and I never played it, my time with the PC version could be an enjoyable time if given the chance. On the movie side I've listened to reviews people praising and rating a movie highly, only for when its over to question why did I waste my time with it. You can look into things sure but don't let it rule your decision making. Do your own thing and you'll be surprised at what you can enjoy.
I'm very glad I don't listen to many reviewers on games because if I did there'd be several titles that I would've never touched.
I'm the same way. It doesn't mean I want to ignore valid critique, but part of me, if I know I want to try a game, I want to go in blind and decide first, then watch reviews
Fantastic video!
good thoughts!
im enjoying the heck out of fallout 4 as well, i downloaded most of the mods you recommended and a few more. its dope. im 49 so like i already know ive been thru the destiny roller coaster good nerf bad nerf, good update bad update, its a bit annoying and ive definetly fallen prey to hype both ways. I dont pay much attention to that anymore, ive stepped away from destiny but i may try 76. thanks for the awesome content. i played MHW a couple months ago and i must have watch all your videos on weapons a dozen times
Yo thank you!!! Much appreciated and enjoy 76 if you give it a shot. I really like it. Also MHW is SO good. I played about 30 hours last month and I forgot just how great a game capcom made. Again thanks, have fun and cheers!
I NEEDED THIS
"while trying to appease everyone... They end up appeasing no one..". Truer words were never spoken, thanks for your take on this. Resonated powerfully with me after acknowledging the fact that Fallout 4 there is fun to be had, but compared to New Vegas (my fav of all time) seems to be lacking in almost all aspects and is the reason why I fell in love with this franchise in the first place.
Brilliant video! Totally changed my mindset on gaming ngl thanks 👏
That's really awesome to hear, thank you very much!
Guilty gear strive is wildly different from the previous games in the series and the only reason for that is that it tried to appeal to everyone, its still a great game but man do i wish they stuck to the old style of gameplay.
Your the best, man💖
I've long argued that Bethesda needs to suck it up and hire a few writers.
5:00 I've only had this with user reviews on RT; most of the time, I find I actually agree with the journalist reviews.
Importantly, though, I'd only look up those reviews AFTER seeing the film and thinking about it myself.
Exactly, and especially if there is a creator you trust etc, it's still good to check out the critique, games launch so busted and broken these days it's worth knowing what you're getting into before hand. BUT it's also key to land on your own opinions if you are going to play/watch/read
Obl survival mode ! No hud no Town no Cross only true survival mode ♥️
Yeah im one of those that tend to look at reviews before buying nowdays. Its just really hard telling if a game is finished or without bugs anymore it seems like alot of development have shifted to a fix later mentality in the games industry. But yeah i dont always like the popular things either one being Skyrim for me i thought it was very boring.
Its kinda sad to think about if the Halo TV series was nearly as good as Fallout show the resurgence of players we would've seen would've been wild.
Yeah and I definitely think checking before and knowing is KEY, but if you know you're going to play, watch, or have interest in something, try to not let the hivemind view influence your impressions
W vids 😎 was able to make a friend on destiny 2 since the last one of these videos so things be going pretty smooth! 👍🏻
Yo right on Nader, thank you!
@@BBKDRAGOON no problem!
The best part of Fallout 4, and what the whole game should have been, is Far Harbor.
Enjoy that.
It's funny hearing BBK talk about products being made to appease everyone, and then they end up being these neutered, lifeless, and boring things considering recent statements from Xbox about doubling down on tried and tested products.
Its just sad how corporate execs are so desperate to keep their and the shareholders' pockets ever growing and ever fatter.
I do think this trend of over commercialising art will harm our culture and society in the future.
I hope im wrong and the pendulum starts swinging back towards something more similar to the 90s and to the 2010s.
good shit
thank you
I make Minecraft games that l love, every Minecraft game that I make is a passion project, one day I’ll send it to mojang to release to the world! I am getting worried of what’s to come on the gaming industry, I’m worried if Xbox will survive, I’m worried about creativity dying!
Let it be known that halo has officially made me so mad that I've decided to get into game dev once again and attempt to make an actual sandbox shooter
Fallout 4 isn't objectively a good game, but after installing a couple of mods it became one of the funniest games I've played for the last five years. Can't wait to get a Series X to play it without crashing.
Over 80% of players love Fallout 4. The angry New Vegas Fanbois are just the loudest. Hating on Fallout 4 is considered cool by the sheeple so they mindlessly hate it. They will throw a couple buzzwords like "choice" at you and will completely ignore that you have the power over the lives and deaths of thousands of Commonwealth people. How is destroying the Prydwen not a "meaningfull choice"??? This game literally has post game content unlike Fallout 1 and New Vegas. You can literally see the consequences of your choices - you don't need a Ron Pearlman slide show - you can literally look at the CIT and see a giant crater. And this is just an example. Most of the criticism is either unfair because it applies to other Fallout games as well, or it has no substance, or it is even a strait up lie.
Great vid mate. Find what you enjoy and do it, and not just with gaming…do it in the real world. Don’t be a sheep, a follower and screw what the herd thinks. Wow, major quality of life rant. I have come back to FO4 after the TV show, and am loving it…again. And yeah, playing it MY way…a couple of mods, a couple of cheats and it’s all good. Thanks again for the vid. It was refreshing. 👍🦘
Sweety try hards and internet rage baiters are just as bad as the woke communist cry bullies. This whole scene is full of immature people. Part of getting older is you know your taste and start filtering out all the yammering.
I love replaying Fallout 4 time to time.. living in MA, I can go to the bridge in concord etc... pretty cool!!
That's so cool! Did they have some locations/spots that really aligned with the real place?
@@BBKDRAGOON They did actually, Boston airport aka Logan and the castle are pretty close to each other. I've been to the bridge that you have to cross over to get to concord. The statue is still there like the game. It's epic lol
Wow, that's freaking awesome!
I don't really like fo4 overall, but I like some of the characters, and sarcastic sole survivor is pretty memorable.
That feeling when your passion is game development and the industry keeps self imploding :/
Jokes aside great vid!
It's such a hard time, I really think the future is indie and double A. The big publishers are imploding
I'm addicted to 76 like i was addicted to D1
