Fallout: London carries along all the important Fallout aspects, but at the end of the day it's new in all the right ways — like no Fallout game yet.
Fallout: London is a must-play. The marriage of Fallout 4’s more modern gameplay and New Vegas’ exemplary role-playing mechanics is a match made in heaven, one that occasionally surpasses Bethesda’s 2015 game.
Fallout 4’s more modern gameplay? Oh shut up. They lost me right there.
Not that i did not enjoy Fallout 4, do not get me wrong. But it sure is not modern in any way that counts. Quite the opposite. It already feeled aged at release.
I did not compare Fallout 4 to New Vegas but to the time it came out. Which is 5 years later btw. New Vegas had a compelling story telling and role playing while Fallout 4 could barely shine with some minor modernizations.

In comparison to Vanilla New Vegas, Vanilla 4 is indeed more modern and smooth to play.

Sure, that’s why the post is saying it keeps the modernizations of 4 while treading towards the game design of New Vegas.
Ok fair enough
