I actually enjoy the looting and shooting part. Going into different places infested with enemies, finding stuff to take back to the settlement (which I'll admit does need to be fixed badly) to build more stuff.

I like the RPG parts of it too, I think they need to give better dialogue options and maybe implement a system where people treat you differently depending on what actions or factions you're a part of, but otherwise it's fine to me, I never understood why people hate it so much.

It's actually a really fun and great game if not for the crashes cause of the bad engine. I'd like to get a definitive version or something that uses another engine entirely so stuff like the Triangle of Death no longer becomes a problem. There are much bigger games with bigger maps that never have this issue.
