Is it just me or is Fallout 4s music not good at all and almost kinda annoying?
especially compared to the absolutely amazing soundtrack of skyrim and the the good soundtrack of fallout 3

Are you talking about the atmospheric music or the radio music?

The soundtrack is one of my favourite things about the game...

Considering some of the songs in the game are actual real life tunes, I quite like it. The ones that aren't real life tunes are very well done and capture that post WWII era very well IMO. My only real complaint, is that there arent more tunes.

The ambient music is also quite good IMO; it really gives off a sense of eeriness and desperation.

the ambiance music is nice, feels refreshing to not have them reuse the morrowind sound track

some of these songs are used in fallout 3. I think it's lacking though. That Freedom station you unlock with the minutemen is painfully boring.

Want more? Just run pandora and put in Frank Sinatra Radio and enjoy.

Honestly the music was the best thing in this game. And that isen't a compliment.

Can't go wrong with that suggestion!

The ambient music is incredible. Usually I leave off the radio and just listen to that. Really gives off the sense that you're a wanderer in the wastes, and there's nothing to find over the hill except more desperation.

Now the radio tunes, well, that's just the flavor of music that the game has, and it fits, too. The radio is almost its own irony: all these positive, upbeat songs from some forgotten time when things were happy...now being played as you happen across all manner of horrible reality that the nuclear wastes have left.

I really like some of the tracks in the ambient soundtrack. Railroad HQ is my jam.

Alternate with Ella Fitzgerald radio and you'll have the best his/her radio of the retro 50's wasteland.

Shhh.. you're going to make me buy the game before I'm able! :)

Not been playing very long and I'm already sick to death of the same songs repeated over and over.
I like them, a lot, but the repetition is tedious.

And it's annoying because I want to listen to the radio to hear the occasional update about the story.

The ambient music though is very, very good.

I love the music. I alternate between radio and ambient music so I don't get bored of the songs.

I usually listen to Diamond City Radio while exploring, to the classical station while crafting and working around my home base, and to ambient when in town or exploring inside of buildings. Some of the background music is gorgeous.

Skyrim's main theme was epic, though. But, I still think the music in this game is good too.

I dunno, both Skyrim and Fallout 3 were generic as hell in terms of music. It's not that big kind of a deal with Skyrim with it being set in a generic fantasy world, but with Fallout games I want something like they have in 1, 2 and NV - dark, industrial, atmospheric. Whispers of long dead people, ghostly air sirens in the background, clicking of keyboards in a vault, that sort of thing.
