Bad Choices
BigB777
This game has lots of promise but is let down by the bad choices made by the developers. To begin with there is no open world to explore or to gain experience. There is only linear quest and repetive jobs to play. Next there is the combat system which is so inconsistent and balky. Third is the through the eyes POV which has you at about 3’ above the floor. Fourth you don’t regain life with time and must eat food that you can’t carry with you and must find when they deign to provide it. Fifth you need revival scrolls to come back from getting killed. The game overall uses the same maps over and over and becomes basically impossible to play without paying tons of money after about character level 15. This should be so much better from Bethesda but it just stinks and feels like soaking you for money is the primary aim of the game.
Bethesda needs to make FO4 mobile
See Far Numb
This was OK. Not what I expected after watching quick gameplay review. Just small maps with mission/goals, no open World. Simplified base building, gears, skills, and stats. Typical aRPG for mobile port. Now what I think world work much better would be Fallout 4 port for mobile devices. Similar to this, but Fallout 4 themed. Instances with goals/missions that take place in interior of big structures, outdoor zones with similar atmosphere as FO4, gun/melee style gameplay with perks and skills, adjustable stats (you know, Strength, Agility, Charisma, Constitution, etc.) all makes perfect sense. The most important thing of focus should be increasing number of townsfolk as player adds more buildings; more eye candy and things to do in the base. It’s time that players move out of that vault sim with Pipboy theme and play a Fallout 4 mobile.
Controller support

Game would be better with controller support. Backbone would make this game way more enjoyable.
I understand it’s free

First off you just ruined Skyrim there used to be spells that can be casted constantly now there’s a dam cool down and you can’t even block while you use the spells compared to the consel version it dosent even come close and I wouldn’t waste your time?
It’s all good! But…

This game is really the best. However, if there is one disadvantage, it suddenly ends while playing the game. Please fix this bug.
Mediocre

It doesn’t feel like Skyrim. It feels like a generic, slightly monotonous RPG. It’s pretty barebones. You essentially do repetitive quests (kill x amount of enemies or gather x amount of items), gain gold and building materials and slowly advance your city so you can unlock more difficult quests and different buildings. There’s no freedom really. You can’t roam the world like you can in Skyrim. You’re secluded in your town with disinteresting citizens to speak to, or stuck doing the repetitive quests which consist of killing opponents by utilizing a slightly interesting but slightly tedious combat system. Also, as anticipated, it is very much a pay to win game, but they gotta make money somehow, so that’s neither here nor there. The story is fairly mediocre as well. It doesn’t really drive you to want to play. A lot of the game is just based around waiting for the chests which contain loot to be opened unless you spend gems which can be scarcely acquired or bought for real money. Ultimately, It’s a decent rpg game with a simple combat system that seems disassociated from Skyrim. I know it seems like I’m noting all the flaws, but it’s truly just an ehh experience. It can be fun, but I tired of the monotony quickly, and the isolation and inability to explore the world makes the game feel very barebones, but after all it is early access. I think it has potential but it needs many improvements. It feels divergent from Skyrim and does little to keep me interested. Once again, it’s a fun little game, but it’s just not fleshed out enough. I’ll keep playing it. It’s definitely fun enough to warrant a download but it’s nothing new.
Great Game

This game is great. The graphics are so realistic, it’s like you are playing on a game console. The story is deep and provides a lot of fun. The only problem I had was when a wolf ran past me, It triggered a fight but I could not hit the wolf and I died. Other than that though, it’s a great game.
Great!!

It’s a great game!! Lots of fun, and an amazing way to play Elder Scrolls on the go!! Just one problem…. It would be really nice if there was some way to reset your progress… I’ve been looking REALLY hard for a way to do that, and I haven’t been able to. If you could take care of that issue, this game would be perfect!! -Chris <3
