Fallout 4 vs Fallout Shelter
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 This time around, the developers went above and beyond, and completely revamped the rather outdated V.A.T.S. and turn it into a slow-motion-based aiming system rather than outright pausing the game mid-combat.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.
Fallout Shelter
Fallout Shelter is a unique simulation game based on the highly-popular survival RPG series, Fallout. This game lets you play the role of the all-powerful Overseer of a fallout vault. It is now your responsibility to take care of the well-being of your people and expand your vault by adding in a variety of rooms.Aside from ensuring that your vault dwellers are getting the resources they need to survive, you'll also be expected to equip them with the strength (by leveling them up), the equipment and the stats they need to defend the vault from any invasive forces, be it a team of raiders attacking from the outside, or a swarm of radroaches attacking from within, or even disasters.
You can send your vault dwellers out into the wasteland to explore and gather important loot as well - loot that can then be re-appropriated to your own people or be broken down into parts that can then be used to build new weapons and outfits. The items that you get will be added to your collection too.
In short, Fallout Shelter is a very addictive management game that doesn't only appeal to fans of the Fallout series but also anyone who love playing games of the similar genre. Be sure to check it out!
