The Art of Fallout 4 Bethesda Softworks Books Reviews

• Was amazed when I received this book. It was much larger than I expected. It is filled nearly 400 pages of high quality photos and information. It has the exact same quality as a school textbook build and paper wise. Very happy with this purchase. You very easily get your money's worth with this.
• By far the best video game artbook I have seen. The thing smells amazing from all of the color ink used to produce it. Easily about half of the book is full page art printing, with many other pages featuring many different concepts for a particular element/character in the game. I am a big artbook aficionado and before this I would say the Witcher 3's artbook was the best, but the Fallout 4 artbook surpasses it with sheer content. If you are thinking about buying it, buy it now.
• This book is HEAVY. I accidentally dropped it and tried to break the fall with my foot...ouch. The art is BEAUTIFUL! And there is a TON of it. One who is into Fallout could spend lots of time just ogling at the artwork. If you are a fan of the game or of the genre in general you cannot go wrong with this book.
• This was an excellent art book, and I am extremely happy with the purchase. It's 365 pages of lushly detailed, beautifully printed concept art from Fallout 4. I really enjoyed both seeing the germination of things that eventually appeared in the game, as well as the things that were brainstormed for the game but never included.
  Three things in particular to note
  First, the detail is excellent. I particularly enjoyed going over some of the pages with a magnifying glass to see all the little intricate details of things like costumes, weapons, and robots, and seeing details that could never be included in the game without ballooning the already massive file sizes to something impossible to load.
  Second, particularly in the World chapter, the book has a real Star Wars feel. In particular, the concept art for makeshift shelters made from the wreckage of prewar Fallout society is conceptually very similar to Mos Eisley construction from old ship parts. Some of the costume design and weapons seem similar, more so in the concept art than even in the game itself, between Fallout and Star Wars. That probably isn't entirely coincidental, considering that both Fallout and Star Wars take inspiration from some of the same sources, particularly their similarities in the Art Deco stylings of the movie Metropolis by Fritz Lang.
  Third, the personality of the artists come through in the descriptions. It is obvious from their descriptions despite knowledge that many of their detailed brainstorms and concept art wouldn't make it into the final game that they were having fun just making them. The artists give detailed descriptions about how they took inspiration from several sources without copying them outright. Also, they wanted to create a game with a homogenized art structure while also having room to go off the walls a little. Overall, their joy in their work is contagious, and it's as much a joy to read about their creation of the artwork as it is to look at the artwork itself.
  
  $20-$50 might seem steep to buy a book, but this is one book that is worth your money.
• The Art of Fallout 4 is an amazing art book. It's over an inch thick, hard cover with high quality paper. The pages are almost card stock the paper is so thick, which is nice. Some art books have very thin paper and it feels like you're going to tear it, or it won't soak up the ink correctly. This one is done right.
  
  The book is most definitely an -art book-. There are a few blurbs here or there but the vast majority of the space is devoted to the art itself. Some movie/game art books want to retell the story. Which if you've spent the money on an art book of this nature you don't need the story retold. Nor are there lots of side tracks or stuff you don't want. It's page after page of beautiful concept art for the game. Covering everything from the costume design, to the setting, all the way down to the appliances in the houses, and everything between. Thousands of images of concept art, from matte paintings for setting of cities and the wastelands down to comic book covers.
  
  The quality of the art is stunning. All that it covers is amazing. The paper of the book is so good and stiff that it ended up hurting my finger after turning the pages on the way through! lol.
  
  Highly recommend this book. One of the best art books I own. Very much worth the money.
• I obviously don't have a firm grasp of ordering books on my . I thought I would be receiving a hard copy book in the mail. The print is really hard to see on my . The "book" was on sale, about $11.00 so I thought sure, why not? A lot of work has gone into this book, the artwork is really good, I just wish I could read the print. It would make a really nice coffee table book if it were hardcopy. Not worth $50.00 but well worth $11.00. If you like Fallout 4 you will like this "book".
• I have never seen such a bulky and thick artbook in my life and I've seen a lot. This has to be one of the best artbooks I have ever read, the ammount of art pieces and lots of cool little information about some of the things is great, but the sheer amount of the art, I cannot comprehend how can sell this kind of art book so cheaply...even though on the back of the book it says it's priced at 49.99 US dollars, but I got it for 33 dollars including shipping, that's incredible if you ask me. The contents are also out of this world, it's literally packed with art from start to finish. A Great game with even better artbook. I would most definitely recommend this to a fan of the game.
• Amazing art book. High quality construction with mid-glossy, oversized pages held within a well bound, heavy, cover.
  
  The Art of Fallout 4 covers most areas from characters to kitchen appliances and offers both high-quality renders and a wealth of art from different stages of development. The book is art-heavy (as it should be) but has captions in just the right places to offer insight into the decisions and thought processes that went into particular designs.
  
  Well worth the purchase price for fans of the game.
