Furthering my Fallout 4 review. The absolute utter focus on combat forced onto the player is definitely a STEP back on roleplaying options from 3. But i've just totally given up on roleplaying in the west so may as well just have half decent combat.
It's strange, I feel like both eastern and western RPG's have been bleeding out actual role-playing in different ways. Western RPG's tend to over-focus mechanics and combat, while eastern RPG's have felt more and more like on-rails experiences. The choices just aren't there.
