Fallout 4’s Radio Is Fun, But It Misses What Made Radio New Vegas Great

The sound of an old radio playing music in a ruined world is a key part of the modern Fallout experience. In Fallout 4, Diamond City Radio offers a diverse but often repetitive mix of songs that matches the struggles of life in the Commonwealth. Its rockabilly style and the nervous chatter of Travis Miles add character, creating a sense of community in the aftermath of disaster. However, it doesn’t quite capture the charm of the previous game’s radio, Radio New Vegas. That station wasn't just a collection of old songs; it created a unique atmosphere that really fit the Mojave Wasteland.
