Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
41 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Power armor melee gameplay is much more enjoyable in VR because you swing weapons with your own hands and the unique helmet UI for each power armor provided by a mod is very immersive.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
31 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I presently have modded every part of the visuals (screenshots posted through my profile), and have them all LODed which was probably the most work of this whole thing since if they aren't packed up into an archive file after making them fallout gets like 30 fps.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
16 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This version preserves the core elements of the original—exploration, combat, crafting, and narrative depth—while leveraging VR technology to create a uniquely tactile and engaging gameplay experience.
