GTA 5 or Fallout 4?
I'm looking to play one of these, but can't decide which one to jump into. I'm usually in games for the long haul until I can't find anymore side missions or anything. Also, I usually tend to stick to single player games more than multiplayer. What're the pros and cons of each? Which one do you guys recommend? Thanks so much!

I loved both, but I finished gta in about 70 hours. Fallout I'm over 300 hours in and am not close to finishing the main story line.

So sounds like Fallout's the way to go?

They did a free to play weekend if I recall, just before the summer sale started and in the grand scheme of things 19 hours in any fallout game except perhaps BoS is not very much play time.

Yeah, I know. I haven't touched either of them in a while, and only have enough hard drive space for one of them. I have some pretty good memories of GTA 5, and not so many of Fallout 4 because it didn't really work on my old rig, so I'm asking here in the forums because I want others' opinions now that I really don't have much recollection of either of them.
Also, I can't download one, try it, and then download the other, and try that, because my internet is literally garbage, so it's hard to justify that sort of analysis.
Sorry for the confusion.

For me Fallout 4 is a rare game that causes me motion sickness due to the FoV settings, from what little I did play of it, I did not enjoy it despite having owned all previous Fallout titles and having completed them all multiple times. GTA 5 I played on the PS3 and while I enjoyed it I had much more fun playing Saints Row 3, that said I didn't play GTA V online.

See, I had more fun in GTA than I did in Saints Row. I like sarcasm and self-awareness, but not to that extent. Just a personal preference.

You can easily clock atleast 200 hours in Fallout 4 all be it may have some flaws compared to past Fallouts , but still a polished game , Map size kind of sucks aswell as mob clutter and mob detection, but really great to mod and just immerse yourself within the post apocolyptic war, as for GTA V never touched that campaign as it is the bain of my existance, Straight to that online coop, seriously fun to play online all be it you really need to play with friends or its just not as fun as it could be. But hey you just have to mod Fallout 4 untill it cant take anymore , other wise your playing it wrong. 10/10 would Not help another settlement.
If you are deciding between those two, then you must decide what you like more: single player or multiplayer. Fallout 4 is single player only, therefore has enough content to entertain you for a great many hours without the need for internet connection. GTA V, on the other hands, has less single player content and relies mostly on multiplayer, and the focus of the game is the multiplayer part.

I have both of them, but I tend to like Fallout 4 (I'm about to reach 900 hours now, lol) more because I am a fan of the Fallout series, and because of the crafting component (building settlements, modifying weapons, crap like that).

Both games have huge modding communities.

I would recommend Fallout 4 for myself as you take a look at GTA V and Fallout 4 and you should tell the difference ....

Fallout is better for exploration and freedom value

GTA if you have friends for MP. In other case get Fallout 4. Personally I had both on preorder, but never finished Fallout since story was pretty boring and felt too slow to get anywhere.
