Black Skylands vs Fallout 4
Black Skylands
Black Skylands is a sandbox-based adventure set in the skies. In this game, you’ll not only get to customize your very own airship and rebuild the Fathership (your home base); you’ll also get to embark on an exciting adventure to recover various floating islands in Aspya from the Falcons in the name of the Earners. To do so, you’ll need to clear all Falcons on those islands. And there are also creatures from another plane...For what it’s worth, Black Skylands is truly a very promising game, but the game has way too many bugs and issues to provide a suitably enjoyable experience. It is possible that your hours of effort will just go down the drain if you happen to encounter a bug that required a fresh gameplay to fix. It might be wise to wishlist the game for now and buy it later down the road, maybe after the game is launched.
Fallout 4
Fallout 4 is the latest installment of the highly-acclaimed game franchise, Fallout. This time around, the developers went above and beyond, and completely revamped the rather outdated V.A.T.S. and turn it into a slow-motion-based aiming system rather than outright pausing the game mid-combat. The game has a massive graphics and sound overhaul as well. The visuals are a lot better than before and the devs added in something that was previously unprecedented - voice acting for the main character. The companions play their roles a bit better as well but they still tend to glitch out, or in some cases, disappear altogether. Thankfully, for PC gamers, you can use the command console to bring them back.In addition to its usual (and still epic) open world plus complete freedom features, this game also has a main storyline that forces you to pick a side in a war between factions, the Institute, the Brotherhood and the Railroad (the Minutemen are somewhat neutral in this game). However, the cream of the crop of this game is its sandbox aspect. In this game, even the junk items have their uses as you can use them to craft or modify your weapons, but also to build bases for settlers to inhabit and also a few extra places for you to stash some supplies in addition to your home in Diamond City.
Fallout 4 may have been ranked down on Steam due to Bethesda's decision to make paid mods, but the game itself is still a pretty good sequel for its combat system alone even if you don't like the storyline as much.
