    Save player one? This is another lie from Bethesda. Fallout 4 was a joke in terms of story and environment if compared to the original Fallouts. They chose to go for the fps like gameplay and for the building of your settlements (we already have proper games fore that) leaving behind what made the old games great.

Everyone which played Fallout 1-2 or even New Vegas know that I mean. This Fallout is even worse, they chose the online path, a mistake already done with TES online and this is the result. The game lacks story and immersion in what is the world game, they changed the original concept of the post-apocalictic enviroment in benefit of countless hours where the only thing you do is kill and loot. This game is not disappointing because I was prepared for this since the moment they declared that was online. They destroyed my favorite series for money and to follow the tendency of the moment. Fallout 3 was just ok I guess but I am certain of the fact that the only thing that Bethesda did great for the Fallout brand is to leave the development of Fallout New Vegas to Obsidian which did a very good job in my oipinion. In the end, Fallout should be a RPG with great story, great setting and great characters, not just a money spilling MMORPG(kinda) which tons of hours of the same **** and absolute garbage base building. It is simply not needed: it is not what a Fallout fan is looking for in this brand. The sooner they realise it, the better. The only thing I suggest Bethesda to do is to go and try the original 2 games and NV.… Expand

    This is not a singleplayer game. It is multiplayer and I love it. Others might not, but it is just stupid to give bad reviews because a Game is in a different genre than you would like it to be.
    Of course there are some minor bugs but this is one of the most stable Bethesda releases I have ever played.
    I am having a lot of fun with the game right now.

    Ive played the beta for around 30 hours and I can tell you that Fallout 76 has a deep and interesting story that's portrayed in an incredibly immersive and creative way. You can definitely tell the developers put in every ounce of effort they could muster. If you are unable to read then perhaps this game is not for you.

    The neck beards complaining about the lack of npc's are literally just scrounging for any excuse to hate on this masterpiece. First off, this game has TONS of npc's. The definition of a npc is a character that is not controlled by a player. Therefore every enemy you encounter (and there are literally thousands of them) is an npc so the complaint that this game has no npc's is objectively FALSE. Second, there are literally thousands of lines of dialogue in this game so people complaining about the lack of npc's have definitely never even played it and/or are unable to play a game without the game holding their hand the whole way.

    Multiplayer is a blast whether solo or with friends. This game allows you and your friends to do something that no other game can come close to: create your own fun. If you lack creativity and an imaginative mind then this game isn't for you. Only casuals and non-gamers are afraid of real human interaction. The way PVP is set up is that if someone attacks you then you have to shoot back in order to engage in a battle. This is a brilliant feature as it allows me to prepare for a malicious player's assault by equipping my power armor and my strongest one-shot weapon before the battle is initiated. I'm still undefeated in PVP which is a testament to my skill developed from years of hardcore gaming experience.

    I've also heard complaints that there are alot of technical issues with this game but they are ALL lies. It is an absolute fact that Fallout 76's graphics are at least on par with other AAA games released this year. As for bugs I have yet to encounter a single one. I've seen videos where enemies are approaching the player in a "T-Pose" but what most people don't realize is that this is INTENTIONAL. The AI in this game is so advanced that the enemies will purposely enter a T-pose to distract players as they get in range for a lethal strike. Pretty genius design if you ask me. People complaining about the nonexistent "bugs" in this game are simply complaining that the game is too hard for them.

    As for mods, the game doesn't need them. It is perfect the way it is. Without mods you are experiencing the game as Bethesda intended it after years of meticulous design and hard work. Again, those that are complaining about the lack of mods are really just complaining that the game is too hard and they need mods to play the game for them. Maybe its just me but I like a real challenge in my games.

The thing that worries me about this game the most is that if it does well, there won't be a single player Fallout 5, we'll just get an MMO with tons of micro transactions which will kill the franchise.

    I've played every Bethesda game and every Fallout game.

    After 30 hours of game play I can say this game isn't worth sixty dollars. The story is limited to notes and recordings in a medium that's "Let the player do" instead of "Tell them what happen", normally that kind of story telling is an optional addition to the games experience.

    Fallout 76 and Fallout 4 both have lore that goes against established cannon, retconning those previous games is disrespectful to the writers and developers of past games.

    The PC edition launched without a number options typically found in sixty dollar triple A titles. From the options menu you cannot, turn off depth of field, bloom, god rays, bloom, change the Anti Aliasing settings, or set an ultra wide screen resolution. The strange thing is the game does support all those settings if you change them from the configuration files. However the normal user would have a difficult time figuring out how to go about that process. Bethesda omitted those options from the game for seemingly no reason.

    After exploring the map, the size of which is one of the games few positives, the gameplay would consist of mostly building your camp and controlling public workshops. The building mode in the game while aggravating at times does work and is improved slightly from Fallout 4.

    Other players from my experience will have voice chat turned off and will ignore you after a wave. After twenty hours of leaving my microphone on in hopes that I would make a lasting connection with someone I decided to turn it off so I could listen to an audio book without having to worry about others at all.

    All of the good things in Fallout 76 can be better found in Fallout 4, and basically this game is Fallout 4 striped of it's substantial story elements and combined with the restrictions of a multiplayer game.    … Expand

    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]
