Fallout 4: 10 Big Ways Bethesda Have Listened To Fan Complaints

8. The Game Engine

For as great as Bethesda's games are, from Fallout to The Elder Scrolls, the publisher's new releases are never exactly up to par with the competition when it comes to the graphical fidelity on display. From flat textures to even worse lighting, the superb design of Bethesda's video games have always been undermined by their less than stellar tech. It's not only the visuals either - by this point the developer's dodgy animations have practically become a running joke within the gaming community. Fortunately, with the birth of a new generation of consoles Bethesda looks to have finally upgraded their gaming engine to better reflect the current climate. Beautiful lighting and higher resolutions are on full display, and Fallout 4 looks to be the publisher's most stunning release to date.
