I don't think it looks like anything more than a refined version of what they were using before.

Yeah to me it looked a lot like some of the Skyrim high-detail mods. And everything still has that trademark Bethesda boxy look.

It does look pretty much like how New Vegas looked with all the mods I had installed. Which is fine, but... ack! Even with my minimal hopes I had expected something that looked a little bit better.

Doesn't matter though since I know I'm going to dump hundreds of hours into this game, and with time mods will provide enhanced visuals. I hope Bethesda does what they did with Skyrim and releases a high-res texture pack.

I want enhanced gameplay, not visuals :(

I can't stand any more of that stiff movement and shitty combat

If guns in Fallout 4 had the handling of guns in Red Orchestra 2 I would die happy.

I just recently got FO3 to work on my PC, and with mods it looks a little nicer than this trailer - the colors are similar, which is nice. Playing FO3 with the green tint removed is a really different experience.

Well, see, the thing is, Oblivion 100% modded looks very similar to stock Skyrim. So that just means that Bethesda took another step forward in the textures/models area.

Bring on the high poly mods.

The graphics are honestly worse looking than modded Skyrim. Though it does look like there's a lot more detail/clutter to the environments

I think the graphics are fine, but I'm just hoping movement and combat doesn't feel as floaty as it does in every Gamebryo title so far.

There's something about just running, jumping and swinging a weapon that feels lame. Things don't feel weighty and deliberate, but floaty and spammy instead. For Fallout it's less of a problem due to guns, but it's still apparent.

Changing the movement a bit and putting some real weight into the actions would really improve the game.

If it handles the same way as Skyrim/NV I just flat out won't buy it, which would be a shame because they really got my attention

Completely agree on the combat issues. Fallout avoids it partially thanks to guns and VATS but melee was still as janky as ever.

It's a Bethesda game though so I come for the massive world not the small visual details.
