It’s been five long years since the last sequel to the Fallout franchise, Fallout New Vegas, explored our favorite post apocalyptic wasteland in 2010. And now with the long awaited release of Fallout 4, I can say it feels so good to finally be back.

Afterward there is an abrupt and brief sex scene, which then match cuts the image of Anya’s exposed back to a scene where they plot to infiltrate a prison from a nearby hotel room. BJ narrates the scene leading up to the prison in gravelly tone that makes it feel like a movie trailer. A half hour later and you’re blowing off Nazi heads and limbs with dual-wielding shotguns.
