I actually enjoy VATS in the game and use it often.  It's more
satisfying than in previous FO games in ways that are hard to
describe.  The cinematics that unfold are interesting to watch.

The game's usefulness as a shooter is a little bit overrated honestly.
It is certainly possible to play without VATS, but the shot
registration still doesn't feel like a real shooter to me, so even if
you're extremely good at shooter games you'll end up with wasted
rounds and wondering why shooting something twelve times in the face
didn't have the effect it should.
