    I always liked Fallout. Fallout 4 was a downfall. This made it worse, by far. The story is a bad joke, the quest system is repetitive as hell - imagine EA and Ubisoft getting a baby.

They simply took all the unneeded play functionality that was new; settlement building, enhanced crafting, the butchered skill system, garbage dialogue and no choices affecting the world and your character and they rammed them all down your throat taking advantage of brand loyalty and previous fans delivering a D- game experience fora AAA price point. I will of course state that Fallout 4 was by far the worst fallout game since BoS, so take this all in stride. They somehow made the worst fallout game look good. They have no idea what made these games good in the first place and I hope that they clean house of all the goons over there who are running the show. Todd Howard is tool who is driving the Bethesda ship into the ground while lying and taking all the money they can.    … Expand

    Got banned in forum in less than 5 minutes after just asking why they put a developer room in a public update if they don't want players to find it :')

    Bethesda clearly died, rekt themself, i love it and they don't stop. Cringy

    Bethesda just does not like criticism. They should move to south korea

    This is an overwhelming disappointment. I knew what it was as well. I played all the fallout games, and I've played MMOs. It does none of the things either genre does well, and doesn't even manage to have enticing microtransactions. This is an astonishing dumpster fire of a game from a great studio. What a pity.

    Pre purchased this piece of crap and paid 80$. Was half price withing a month.

    Game is unplayable, broken, unpatchable (would need a whole new game to fix this one), and unenjoyable.

    I would not even play if the game was free.

    Perhaps there are things in this game that don't deserve that score, but when I consider all in all that's the score it gets.

    And this is why.

    At first I felt excited to get out and see what Bethesda had made, to explore, build and do quest. But rather quickly the game over all felt empty and dull. Everything I had hoped for was missing and was instead replaced with thins I had hoped would not be there.
    This game contains so many badly developed thins on so many levels its hard to get any enjoyment out of it at all. Thins from how the melee systems hit-box is from a bad 1998 game, to the terrible sound location system were it will sound like all the enemies in a dungeon are kicking you in the ear at once, from every direction. Not to mention how demanding this game will be for your system. I run it on a GTX 1080 ti and i still experience ridiculous frame drops in certain areas.
    You will spend most of the time being frustrated over game breaking bugs and unstable servers.
    All these thins I could accept, from a small INDIGAME-studio perhaps, but not from this multi billion company that is Bethesda. The game should be called a early-access game, and the price players had to pay to play this game is absurd.

    To summarise, this game is all in all just a big disappointment for fallout fans. They brought with them all bad thins from fallout 4 and added a few more game breakers on top of the already huge pile of dirt that this game contains.    … Expand

    Bethesda does not listen to their customers, they are greedy and lazy because they do not use a new engine.

    I had a bad feeling about this game before it's annouce. It started since Fallout 4 gameplay trailer with salvage-craft-build-sims gameplay. But if in Fallout 4 it was great alongside activity for creative players (like myself), this game has NOTHING interesting in this activity. Building and crafting systems are just bugged, needless and degrated compared to Fallout 4. I played this gameI had a bad feeling about this game before it's annouce.

    1/5/2019 The game disconnected at least a half dozen times or more, Shooting at targets have no effect. My camp disappeared, I had to rebuild again at my cost. This happened over a month ago.
    I e-mailed Bethesda, still have not got a response. It pains me to write this review. my son and I have played Bethesda games since Arena This is the worst game I ever tried to play. The game is unplayable.

    quite honestly the worst fallout ever played. its entirely dominated by a few players who do nothing but play/glitch to reach high levels and farm explosive weapons. if you try to ever use the workshop system be prepared for players who will come and destroy everything and rob you of caps simultaneously.

    This game is not finished. They have not implemented any gameplay features beyond killing scorched, ghouls, rats, or super mutants that each have a different number above their head. The only difference in enemies is their level. You can't use certain tire irons or baseball bats until you've grinded the game for enough weeks to surpass level 50

Banning players left and right, refusing to fix bugs, failing to update the graphics, and literally ripping off their biggest supporters. Bethesda has completely failed in showing self-awareness and awareness in what the actual fanbase wants from the game, and has lost all my respect and my respect for Fallout 76 in the process.

    Fallout 76 represents a big disappointment and the lowest point of the series so far. Riddled with bugs, repetitive and dull gameplay, nonexistent story and outdated graphics, it fails as a both multiplayer and singleplayer experience for fans and newcomers alike.

    Miracles do happen once in a while and No Man’s Sky proved that sometimes it is possible to get back on your feet even after a terrible failure. Right now though Fallout 76 is botched spectacularly on so many levels that even talking about this game is a waste of time. [01/2019, p.46]

    An unfinished game with bifurcated identity and in an almost dysfunctional state. It's hard to build on a bad base, that will never change. Like the war. [Issue#292]
