I just don't get where people are saying the graphics are bad? Are they blind? It looks great. Some of the most realistic environment effects I've ever seen on an unmodded game. It's gorgeous...for a wasteland lol


It's a combination of things:

1) it's not Witcher 3 in terms of looks, whether or not it makes sense to expect/compare it that way the fact is that many people have played W3 and to them it feels like a set back

2) some of the visuals can be really good (as you stated) but many of the textures and some of the models are just mediocre

3) we expected better. This is a new FO game and it's effectively Skyrim with guns graphics wise, a bit tweaked but still stock Skyrim and as you mentioned we're used to modded Skyrim. We either expected them to go all out (possibly by hiring/using some of the amazing modders for Skyrim) or to use a different engine. It's just not as visually appealing as it should have been.
