Before I get into the complaints, I gotta admit there's some fantastic talent behind the new map, assets, voice actors (for the most part), and animators behind the cutscenes. What really ruins this game is that it doesn't feel like Fallout. It really feels like it's a gang of modders who got together, and none of them had any experience with writing good dialogue. I feel like whoever was in charge of the stories had this in their writer's diet: modern anime, and Star Wars: The Clone Wars. I have nothing against those two, but you can tell it's made by someone who likes those things and pays little attention to the true inspirations of Fallout itself. I mean... everyone knows you're the courier and worships you. The NCR have a abundance of assets despite being stretched thin in the Mojave? You got a tough guy leader named Blackthorne, and you can probably guess how his voice sounds by reading this. And woo-hoo, you get put into a squad with the most typical name ever, WOLF PACK. After may years having Fallout New Vegas being one of the best rpg games all the time, and what you get with The Frontier is an edgy young Todd Howard who focuses on what they like rather than the main fundamentals of a true rpg.
