Furthermore, many of the enemies in the game are shown in a much darker light than in previous games, with Super Mutants now being motivated by bloody vengeance upon humanity instead of just bloodlust and cannibalism as they were in Fallout 3, and many Raiders are no longer comically villainous highwaymen but horrified criminals strung out on too many chems to reason what's right and wrong anymore. Fallout 4 also downplays the Black Comedy in comparison to its immediate predecessor, and the Art Shift gives way for a much moodier and bleaker atmosphere (despite the brighter lighting). Darker and Edgier: Not only does the game almost literally start with the nuclear holocaust of mankind, but it outright ends its prologue chapter by killing the protagonist's spouse and kidnapping their only child, something that didn't happen in any of the previous games' prologues.However, unlike the other three, Radiation damage causes Maximum HP Reduction.
All four can be resisted via different types of armor.
