    From the beginning I loved FO76 now after Wastelander release I see that Bethesda really care about players and they gave us magnificent DLC

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is great to me. Even without human NPC's, a story, and a fov slider. I think the game is fine. There are NPC's but they are robots. I do not have anything negative to say about repetitive quests. I think this talk about frequently mentioned stuff is enough.… Expand

    Как по мне игра не плохая, в чём плюс , прошло больше 2 ух лет, а она продолжает развиваться. По мне это больше одиночная игра , нежели онлайн , тут кому как. Советую всем хоть чуть-чуть ,но поиграть в неё и основываться только на своём опыте.Как по мне игра не плохая, в чём плюс , прошло больше 2 ух лет, а она продолжает развиваться.

    I was watching a stream of a guy playing a bit and had to try it now that it cost almost nothing.

    You can play it singelplayer if you want but if you play it multiplayer it only gets better.
    Only thing they need to do now is remove the overpowerd legacy weapons so new players have a chans to do any damage on a boss before its dead.

    But if you are new and like Skyrim/Fallout3/4 then try it. it is good now.    … Expand

Yes, this game does have microtransaction, but so does Fallout 4 creation club, and it's just optional. No point to complain about having nice and cool cosmetic stuffs from atomic shop. Atomic stuffs are carried over on each new characters on the same account are the pro. When I see all the negative reviews are laughable to me. I played over 2000 hours and the game is the best game I ever play. I love how camp set up anywhere I want around Appalachia. I love this game, man! Thank you Bethesda for making this game and all the updates and patches.… Expand

    I've been playing since the beta and still love the game. It's a blast to play - the amount of content, world complexity and general fun coming from this game honestly cannot be compared to no other vidya. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who liked the franchise till now, but was on the fence due to the negativity campaign towards this product. It's a quality game with amazing community.

    That's a great game. Slow exploration of the huge world, history of Fallout's world on the terminal among empty, left buildings with a ton of danger. After 2 years from release it's great game. Very recommend it, if you like survival, realtime RPG with exploration. For fun you can go with your friend online.

    IMHO, this is a giant new Fallout game in which I have forfeited VATS for the opportunity to finally play Fallout with friends.

    I'm loving it. I know people had tons of expectations for it, and that there's been a massive bandwagon against it, but whatever -- I'm having a blast playing it, and that's what matters in the end. Comparisons to Rust abound, but I prefer FO:76 vastly.    IMHO, this is a giant new Fallout game in which I have forfeited VATS for the opportunity to finally play Fallout with friends.

    It's not a "skin," it's Fallout, warts and all. Everything I've done so far has felt like FO4, which I realize some people don't like, but that's their prerogative.

    Personally, I find it incredibly fun. That's all that matters with a game.    … Expand

    They really need a way to check if people actually bought the game, before allowing them to post here.

    The game is buggy, but it's not bad at all, it's not broken. It's incredibly fun, runs great, and is secure.

    Actually research before you judge - don't jump on the arbitrary hate fad, just copy/pasting the same nonsense.

    I've played ~10 hours so far. While the lack of NPCs (not including robot NPCs) is odd and takes a little getting used to. It makes sense with the story and setting.

    Great Performance: Runs great on my laptop. No stuttering, clipping, graphics looks clean and game seems to be well optimized.

    Game Play: Great Perk system, allows great customization. Weapon crafting and mod allows your to truly fight the I wanted to. Every weapon and items so far can be crafted.

    CAMP: Great feature. Build a simple camp with a fire or a house with crafting stations. On top of that its portable

    This game is Fall Out Survival game at its best. Its not going to be for everyone. Judge it for yourself. I enjoy the simplicity of this game. Go out and gather food, and water. Gather materials to build and repair weapons. Grap a world quest or two and simply explore.

    The world itself is the story. You get to see what peoples lives where and how ware destroyed it. This game isn't like so many where the the plot holds your hand like WOW, or FFXIV where a fully cinematic video tells you what happened. You are part of the story and creating your legacy is what this game is about.    … Expand

    Currently, the game has some storage issues, if you are a hoarder, or want to save that special Power Armor pieces until you can use them. That is simply imposable, however, it has already been announced they will change that in one of the coming patches.

    I don't get why this is getting review-bombed so bad. I've only had time to play this a few hours so far, but my initial take is: I must be really lucky because the game is not a stuttering buggy mess for me. Either that, or I'm living in some alternate universe than the ones and zero scorers.

Either that, or I'm living in some alternate universe than the ones and zero scorers.

    Fallout 76 is far "prettier" than Fallout 3, Fallout 4, and New Vegas because the color palette isn't limited to mud, ochre, and grays. It is also a different game from earlier Fallouts due to how leveling and perks work. Oh, and also, the occasional non-violent other Player Characters I run into (not a single one has been aggressive to me) that's different as well. The other big "raise the stakes" difference is: no time slowdown and no save files.

    Given those differences, it does still have a similar look and feel to its predecessors.

    My "first impressions" review score is an 8.5.

    I´ve been a fan of all the Fallout games ever since the first in 1997 and have therefore looked much forward to a new Fallout experience in 76. I admit that it took me a few days to adjust to the game and the survival aspect of it. Once I put some points into endurance and stopped dying of radiation, thirst and hunger after few minutes, I started focusing on the quests and mainstory.

    Now I´m really enjoying myself; playing solo or with my wife in co-op. The atmosphere is fantastic, the quests fun and it´s enjoyable to snipe your enemies from afar using your sniper rifle or getting in close and personal with the machete.
    Sure, the game still have some flaws (the stash is much too small, too much limit building your BASE, lack of written chat), but Bethesda has been listening to the players and has promised to fix these things in upcoming patches.
    The game is slowburn, RPG filled with lore and atmosphere. Do not listen to all the bad reviews; once you adjust to 76 mechanisms, it´s really lots of fun.    … 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]

    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]
