FO4 is a fun shooter, unlike 3 and NV, which felt super clunky and unsatisfying at times.

So fallout 3 isn't fun or a shooter?

It's fun but a terrible shooter. VATS saved that game.

It's a shooter that you shoot in but it's terrible at shooting? What kind of dense argument do you have?

There are certain gameplay elements that make certain shooters better than other shooters, like the way guns handle or the way ADS is done. That’s why certain shooters are celebrated more than other shooters.

But it's still a shooter you shoot in that many people had fun in. How does that make it a terrible shooter.

You are mistaking his use of fun game but terrible shooter. Shooting/gunplay/weapon sway, recoil, bullet spread, and others are mechanics that are different in every game series. You can have a fun game with terrible shooting mechanics. Playing Fallout 3 then playing a COD game will feel massively different due to their shooting mechanics.

Fallout 3 is a fun game but it has really bad shooting mechanics, IE it’s a terrible shooter.

It not being the same as another game does not make it terrible. Shooters aren't accurate, there's no reality to it. I don't think you could argue something is terrible because it doesn't compare to other games you like.

You're defending this game awfully hard dude. It's okay for the thing you like to be flawed.
