    For a 60$ game, you get random bits of written texts, no dialogue, no voice acting (audio tapes are trash), no story. Take FO4, remove all content but the map and make it different, add a few new mmo monsters, awful bugs (technical but also mobs), cheaters, a broken, out of date engine with poor performance graphics, fetch quests and rampant boredom fever spreading fast.
    Just no, enough.

    Just no, enough. You can't make a solo game without looking dumb and silly in the end and yet you managed to make your situation worse when avoiding making all the things you kinda suck at.

    Shameless cash grab and shame on you Bethesda for trying to outdo EA in terms of being a cumbucket.

    Honestly, I had hopes for this game but it is just absolutely terrible and looking at the reviews it's clear that even other long time fans of the franchise feel the same way.

It seems that people are only giving it any kind of positive score because they either can't accept how bad the game is, can't accept that Bethesda would make a bad game, or somehow were involved in the project and are trying to lie about the game to fix the terrible scores. As a survival game it fails, as a fallout game it fails, as an online game it fails. This game has nothing to offer anyone. Heck, when I returned the game to gamestop the cashier knew what I was returning before I even pulled it out because he apparently had gotten so many returns of the game in the 2 days since release when I got time to return it. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your money or time. Expand

    Loot is level locked. PVP is invite initiated. There are no human NPC's. Every mission is mind numbingly repetitive. The "story" is told through hundreds of holotapes cause, again, no human NPC's. It looks absolutely terrible for a 2018 game and runs like hot garbage. Shall I go on? What a mess, Bethesda Softworks used to be one of the best gaming studios, now it's a bad joke.

    Fallout 4 may not have been the funnest game in the world, but the game at least worked. The story may have been fairly shallow, but it made sense and there was quite a bit to it. The world may have been a tad empty, but there was no doubt that there was stuff to do and things to explore. The combat may have had too much emphasis on gunplay, but the gunplay was the most fluid of the Fallouts and combat was easy and worked really smooth.

    Not this game. This game doesn't work - it simply does not work. The game is not fun no matter how you slice it. Your framerate will drop to 15 FPS on console if you're ever in combat; the combat is very clunky and buggy; the graphics are okay, but the whole world looks more like a really good Fallout 4 mod than a new game; the storyline is GARBAGE because there is no story line, and while I know it wasn't necessarily supposed to have a main story, the sidequests are uninspired, recycled garbage that are meant to artificially extend the life of the game. The gun play is very difficult because of the sever frame rate drops. The building mechanics are glitchy and VERY restrictive. You cannot build a massive base like you could in Fallout 4, because the budget is so low due to trying to keep the frame rate workable.

    Lazy, uninspired, dull, unfun, lifeless game that will bore you very quickly. This game is a chore to play.

    Wow, people have unloaded with both barrels on bethesda and rightfully so.

    I must say I haven't played this garbage and probably never will, just watched it on twitch for a few hours. Since Fallout 4, I vowed to never give any money to bethesda until I see a few hours of the game on either twitch or youtube. I played Fallout 3 and NV and was a big fan of the series, but not anymore.

There is a difference between the 4th part and f76 - 200 years, but the world hasn’t changed in that time, seriously? There are many bugs, and the price of this game, to put it mildly, is a bit overpriced. Lor? Forget it. Super mutants a couple of decades before the creator?

    Hello, plot, where are you?
    You are a resident of the refuge, go out with your neighbors. What to do? That's right, collect garbage, make a house of **** and shoot each other. Most recently, have you been hiding from global nuclear war? Now we find the access codes and we will launch rockets left and right.

    Tasks? Quests? When I played f4 I couldn’t have thought that the quests of Preston Garvey about the cleansing of settlements, against the background of a new game of the series, would seem to me perfectly thought out.

    Buggy sandbox without a plot, a game parasitizing on a great name.
    It is a pity you can not put a negative assessment.

    Some 10 years ago such a game would not even be released, with so many bugs. Now it has become the norm. Here you share with bugs, a lot of them - we will decide. Previously, this was what beta testing was necessary for.

    People who praise such **** in 10 years will happily consume even more flawed **** justifying the laziness and greed of publishers and developers.

    P.S. To sell THIS at the price of RDR2 is a standard of impudence.

This will be a game you won't even be able to play in 3-5 years just because the player base of any game falls within that time.

    They rely on a old engine and old gameplay that fans dealt with because of the rest of the game was good. Now they rely only on the engine and old gameplay.

    This is a shell of a game that shouldn't be supported. Look at Red Dead Redemption 2, A gorgeous game with a 60+ single player story mode and an multiplayer component added on later. ADDED ON. This would be an ADD ON in another game, not a full price game on it's own.

    That, and all the bugs and performance issues aside (which are a joke at best) this game just doesnt do anything.

    Its a junk collection game without any real goal. The biggest most massive base can just be walked by and will never have any real function. There is nothing here that makes multiplayer work, base building work, character building work or item collection work. There is nothing to look forward to, ive killed scorchbeast in the beta, ive seen nukes drop, there is no sustained pvp. Its truly just a bad game, and considering bethesda its even worse.

    TLDR: Gameplay loop is terrible and product isnt AAA quality.

Greedy people who have never touched a videogame, who are pushing their developers to do as much as possible in the shortest time and with as little resources as possible. That's why we have a 2018 game with a 90s graphic engine (yes exactly) which was originally wrote for multiplayer 33.6kb MMO's and 3dfx GPUs, then converted to a singleplayer only engine and is now being forced to work online again with broadband and modern hardware. A train wreck basically. No attention was put into the details, constantly you have to look for Jim, for Frank for Anna... they are all dead! They are all dead because there are no NPCs in this game. So you are forced to go look for a person but you know exactly he will just be a corpse because the whole mechanic doesn't exist. It's so incoherent, the gameplay is miserable, graphics look bad.. On the backend the situation is tragic, you can basically see the IPs of other players in plain text and the game speed is bound to the FPS (yes exactly, like they used to do in the 90s) and i could go on for days. If you buy this game without being an ignorant casual you deserve no respect. You are a short sighted person who rewards bad companies for bad work and i can only hope your actions won't lead other SH to follow. Expand

I thought ...no NPCs...that's interesting...as I played I felt that part missing more and more. When looking for a solo experience generally you can work out a path to avoid others...but then just when you are ready to complete a quest "pop" another player swoops in and solo play/immersion goes down the pipes. If there was a "go away and leave me alone" mode when you want to play solo and a "glad to see you" mode when you feel like interacting with people then things would be better. Game is buggy getting tagged as "wanted" for walking through an area gets irritating. Taking control of a camp then the camp turns on you and server disconnects...

    Building structures only to leave the game and then they are all gone once you "claim" an area...

    Lack of any type of story via people...going around and "searching" for dead people...because you already know there aren't any alive.

    It's no Fallout New Vegas ( the truest of the post Fallout 2...should have been titled Fallout 3)...it actually had a story line that made sense. I see strained effort to setup the types of things that felt effortless in New Vegas...things that don't make sense when you take less than a second to think about it. Open world with splatters of Fallout lore...lore that is misused/confusing/irritating. Not sure what story line this branched off of but the whole thing feels...sell out/merchandise oriented...no spirit no soul...no story that really makes me want to know more. The first few "clues" pretty much point out where things are going...Also as cool as nukes are...what do they really have to do with rebuilding the future? Playing the BETA and quite some time on the full game I'm trying to keep an open mind...but it's getting difficult...I really want a good story that feels effortless and valued. Not someone that spits out a strained story with smatherings of lore just to try to slap a Fallout title on it.

    Maybe...just maybe they'll get back to the roots and stop making these FPS/Mine craft smashups with no soul/storylines for a quick buck and get back into some really good story-lines that truly takes the Fallout lore seriously. This is probably closer to Fallout tactics in terms of making sense in the universe that is Fallout...only the people that made tactics somewhat understood what made the Fallout franchise...well Fallout.

    So far disappointing in a lot of ways...maybe it will get better?...maybe not...

    Bethesda purposefully didn't sell on Steam because they knew every single one of those orders would've been refunded. They KNEW this game was a polished turd, and they had the mentality of "oh well, let's get as much cash as we can now and then start fixing stuff later".

    76 has come out after Fallout 4, and yet there is literally LESS in 76 than in its predecessor. I can't believe that this isn't a joke. This game feels like a hollow shell of a game. They've literally taken Fallout 4, removed everything that made it a good game, and sold it back to us as a AAA game with a $60 price tag. The game crashes ALL THE TIME, the bugs are actually ridiculous, the world is empty, quests are boring and uninspired, and I happen to run into another player once every 2-3 hours. Talk about an immersive multiplayer experience!

I remember the backlash ESO had upon release, people wanting "Skyrim with friends", but that was way better at launch than this, and since then with its upgrades it has become my favourite online game ever. TONS of content, great storylines and characters, much better graphics than its main rival, WoW and on the whole, runs very smoothly, even with loads of other players on screen. With this game, I wasn't expecting "Fallout 3 with friends", but at the very least something on par with ESO, vaguely hoping Bethesda would've learnt from Obsidian's release. With its constant bugs, atrocious graphics, awful AI, complete lack of immersion and characters, and enemies spawning out of nowhere, it appears not. It seems that Bethesda have gotten too big for their boots, and if they think they can crap on their customers by thinking that this is good enough for us, then they need to learn a valuable lesson: it doesn't matter how big you are, a business is NOTHING without its customers. We've parted with our cash and been stung this time- we won't next time.
    I can only hope that they have just enough humility to realise that they have really messed up, and hopefully they will sort this mess out and give us the game we deserve, because, as of now, they have not only seriously tarnished the Fallout brand, but also their own brand.

I went into this game expecting it to be average but average would be a compliment. Fallout 76 feels like a small grade up from those asset flip **** games that people would put on steam. As consumers for Bethesda games we expect bugs on launch... but I got this a month after launch (cheap thankfully) and it's one of the buggiest games I've ever seen. There's no story, no NPCs to talk to and no sense of wonder as youre exploring the map. Buildings and places are just shamelessly reused from other fallout games and pasted.

    It's just a mess and I wish I could sell this game but I'd feel guilty putting the pain of the game onto another living person. This game has broken my faith in Bethesda and I have lost my excitement for Elder scrolls 6 because of it.

    Fallout 76 can be a very pretty game at times but it is ruined when you see a glitching scorched or textures that look very very bad. This game is very boring with the most uninspired bare bones quests that I have ever done. One event quest is literally just escorting a robot through a city filled with like ten gouls. This is not fun this not how you do quest especially fallout quests.
    Fallout 76s world is huge. But a huge world is useless when there is nothing fun to do in it. The world comes off as very empty there are some places to scavenge and enemies to fight but it is still so barren.
    The biggest crime 76 commits are the attom shop. It is broken with fake sales and way overpriced skins. I can deal with overpriced skin in games like fortnite but that game is free to play. 76 is a 60$ game. It just comes off a soo greedy. Truthfully I had some fun in 76 but it was very few and far between.

    Okay, where to begin? I pre-ordered this game (last time I will do that). I should have seen it in the BETA, but I gave Bethesda a chance, hoping they would fix some of the problems. I am a Fallout fan, played all games multiple times. But this is not Fallout. I dont mind that it is multiplayer, its a big map and its not often you see other players.

I dont mind that it is multiplayer, its a big map and its not often you see other players. But lets go over some of the details:

    Graphics: Everything in the background look like it has haze/fog, all the time. The graphics on FO4 is better.when looking at objects in the distance.

    Lootbox: its stupid with the 400 limit, its way to low. Fallout is a game where you should loot and collect for building and crafting. With this limit it destroys the fun of the game, because you have to use way to much time to handle inventory.

    Framerate drop: I have noticed heavy framerate drop in scrapping menu, nearly to the point that the game becomes unresponsive if you have many items.
    The same happens when you enter areas with many enemies or players. Also there is a lag from when you enter VATS until you can shoot. Not fun when the game throws many enemies at you. Its better to stay away from VATS in those situations.

    Enemies and spawn: Its kind of stupid that enemies spawn at an area you have cleared right away. Its frustrating, and takes away some of the fun. Like, if I clear that area, leave to dump some items at my camp (that is placed just outside the area I cleared), I have to start all over when I return to same area a few minutes later.
    The same if you die. I was clearing out a big area with high level Super Mutants, nearly at the end I died ( because of lag and unresponsive game). Then I could spawn outside the area, but I had to clear out everything one more time. I turned of the game instead. This is not my idea of fun gameplay.
    No contact with server? Same result. I was thrown out of the server when clearing out many enemies, came to the last one and game froze, no contact with server, resulting in logging in again, spawned just outside said place and had to start all over again. (now with less ammo and food/stimpacks). This makes progress feel useless and boring/frustrating.This is not fun Bethesda,

    Many times enemies float on the ground when they move, it kind of looks like they are on a hooverboard instead of running/walking. Enemies that you cant kill, enemies that just stand there. The AI in this game is rubbish.

    VATS/Shooting: When targeting and shooting enemies in VATS it is a frustrating lag (as said before). From pressing button for entering VATS I have to wait a second before shooting. If I shoot right away the first bullet will miss as VATS uses around 1-2 seconds to lock on target. This is frustrating as you sometimes have to act fast when the game throws way to many enemies at you at once.
    When in VATS its not possible to bash enemies with gun, this can be frustrating if your enemies are to close and VATS uses said time to lock.(communicate with server).

    No NPC makes the game boring, with a very thin story. I really like and enjoy the Fallout universe, but this game dont belong in this universe. Shame on you Bethesda

After chewing on this crap sandwich for over three days and building a character to level 20 I had to spit it out and walk away. I just can't lie to myself any longer. This game is terrible! It's not even a game. It honestly reminds me of when I was a child and saved up $30-$40 to buy a new nintendo game only to get stuck with a total bomb that was completely unplayable. Everything bad you have read or heard about this game is true. I spent hours getting settlements set up only to be disconnected when servers crashed and lost everything.

    Quest bugs are everywhere!
    Load times are worse than Fallout 4 in survival mode!
    Loot storage caps are unbearable!
    PVP is a total joke!
    The game is WAY too easy
    Quest from holo tapes is annoying and unrewarding

    Everything bad you have heard and more are true. I honestly think all the good reviews are written by staff members and share holders. Don't waste $60 on this game please. I wasted $120 because I bought it on PS4 and Xbox1 because oh yeah, you can't play with friends across platforms either. And another $59.99 to renew my PS4 Online pass, so I'm $180 in the hole for this abomination. If you really think you want to try this game just wait a few more weeks and you can buy !0,000 copies of it used at Gamestop in a few weeks for $2.99 because everyone is going to try to get whatever money they can back before it"s too late to sell it.

    If this game had been released as a disk based title with no way to update it online like games used to be made, there would be riots in stores with people demanding their money back! How can a "game studio" release such an epic title in such horrible condition? Yes, we all want the newest version of the games we love but WTF were they thinking they could cram this down our throats and we would just eat it? Don't give me the "this is a beta" or "it's only opening week" BS!!! Bethesda thinks they are going to reboot, repackage, copy and paste another title with a new map and rob their customers and fans of million of dollars!

    I'm sure hundreds of people worked their asses off to get this game "ready" for release but SERIOUSLY?!?!?! You knew this game wasn't even close to being ready and you pushed it out anyway. Now they are saying they are getting review bombed. Well guess what? I wouldn't have time to write this review if YOU HADN'T DROPPED THIS FLAMING PILE OF SH!T ON ME!!!! I would be spending countless hours enjoying a game I loved, playing online with my friends like you told us we could. But i'm not, cause when we get a group together, we keep getting dropped cause the servers keep crashing and reloading.

    I should really be thanking Bethesda for curing me of this addiction to Fallout. If this game had been half as good as previous versions I would have spent thousands of hours playing online instead of spending time with my wife and kid. But after 20 hours of ignoring them and TRYING to like this game, I just can't do it. I would rather sit with my wife and watch The Bachelor or some other God Awful show on the Oprah network.

    The game play, bugs and glitches and graphics issues aside is just horrible. The card system is pretty cool but you get random cards and have no way to "build a character" like you usually do in a fallout game. Imagine leveling up in Fallout 4 and just spinning a wheel to see what perk you get next. Oh WOW i just looted an awesome weapon, too bad I have to be level 30 to equip it. I'll just save it for later but oh wait, my stash is already full cause I can't craft anything useful till I find some plans for a GD weapon that I already looted 400 times and broke down for parts! I guess I'll just go kill another 10,000 scorched that keep re-spawning in my face every ten seconds and hope one of them drops something useful. NOPE just another A-D block, that's f-ing useful if Shawn was still a kid not a senior citizen. Building your own camp is kinda cool, till the server resets and you lose everything you built and have to start over. Taking a settlement for resources is great, till you logout and lose your progress. Or you invest tons of resources into it and some massive mob attacks it while your trying to complete a timed quest and destroys everything and you can't rebuild cause I'm out of junk!

    This game should have never been released in this condition. It can't be fixed with patches that are bigger than the original version of the game. It is flawed from the ground up and needed years more of work to make it playable. Bethesda has lost all credibility and I will never give them another dime. How they thought they could fool hardcore gamers is beyond me.

    PLEASE DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY

    Having put some time into Fallout 76, I can say that it is not an enjoyable experience, for me at least. There are a number of reasons for why I don't enjoy this game, so I suppose I'll start with the lesser reasons and move on from there.

    Fallout 76 doesn't feel like Fallout. I have put 168 hours into Fallout 4, which was by the way my first Fallout game, and loved every second of time
    Having put some time into Fallout 76, I can say that it is not an enjoyable experience, for me at least. There are a number of reasons for why I don't enjoy this game, so I suppose I'll start with the lesser reasons and move on from there.

    Fallout 76 doesn't feel like Fallout. I have put 168 hours into Fallout 4, which was by the way my first Fallout game, and loved every second of time I put into that. I came into Fallout 76 expecting a similar game, but one that had enough differences that it would feel new and fresh. Sadly I was left disappointed. The world feels recycled, the quests feel meaningless and the gameplay feels generally boring and more of a chore than a fun time.

    I'll start with explaining how quests work. Basically, you're gonna be getting quests through a few different means, be it through a robot, a holotape or a note left by a long diseased character. But the reason I kept coming back to Fallout 4 and Skyrim is because of what the quest has to offer and how the quest offers it. Quests felt good to complete because they made it feel like you were helping someone, or having an effect on the world. Unfortunately, because there simply isn't any NPC human in this game, it feels like you are just running errands for robots or long gone characters, and it feels as if it has no effect on the world at all.

    Next, the world itself. Fallout 76 feels like a recycled version of Fallout 4, with some multiplayer sprinkled in for something "new". Every location I have visited in Fallout 76 felt like it had already been seen in Fallout 4. Even the distinct different parts of the map felt as if I had seen it before. Basically, Fallout 76's world just feels like Fallout 4, with real players rather than NPC's.

    Finally, the gameplay. Fallout 76 has nothing new to offer in the sense of gameplay other than the fact you can play with friends. Everything I have done in Fallout 76 felt boring. Exploring felt boring. Doing quests felt boring. Building a base was a bit or fun for a while but eventually felt boring. I did get a chance to play it for about an hour with a mate, and even that still felt repetitive and boring. The only way I can see anyone enjoying this game is through setting yourself your own goals, which is what games like this exist for. But when you feel as if the only way you can enjoy this game is by doing your own thing and ignoring the story/ side quests, the gameplay gets repetitive and boring really really quickly.

    Fallout 76 feels more like a chore to play. The only reason I have given it a 4/10 is because I did have some good fun in the first 4-ish hours I played it, but after that it just felt like I'd seen everything. I wanted to like this game, I really did, but it has let me down.

    Out of all the games I have played, this one has disappointed me the most.

    3. I can't even break down and craft items because the entire menu system freezes.
    4. Enemies spawn at different levels and you can have enemies that are below you in level kill you with no problems. Or they spawn enemies that are so high above you that you can't even run away.
    5. They implemented a store for microtransactions that works better than the rest of the game. That tells you how much they cared about the main game.
    6. They tried to pull a Final Fantasy 14 or Street Fighter V by releasing a game that is not even finished.
    7. The VATS system doesn't work when zoomed.

It is worth $20 at best. This Game is clearly not working properly. It needs a lot of work to fix all the glitches. When paying good money I expect a game the functions properly. A year more of wok needs to be done before people can justify this cost. The store to buy extra cosmetics is a joke!!
    The time should have been used to make the game Good. I had High Hopes for it and wanted it to succeeded. But absolutely this game is not a 10 or 9. realistically it is a 2/10

    Having played every iteration of Fallout from the start (including having a stash of Nuka-cola caps somewhere in my bedside table), and a long history with MMORPGs, I should have been the perfect target audience for an open world Fallout game.

However, the reality is that Bethesda rushed a half-baked game that stripped the charm of Fallout series from the game, while failing to implement basic aspects of the MMO genre that have evolved over the last decade into standby's of the genre. Gone are the compelling Fallout stories, characters, quests and emotional ties to factions and companions. Gone is the humour and quirkiness, or surprising bits of lore that were embedded into the very fabric of the post-nuka landscape. Effectively, the Fallout world was reduced to another post-apocalytic wasteland with echoes of what drew people to Fallout over the past 15-years. Combine this with failing to implement any form of zoning mechanics, a total lack of instancing, terribly buggy re-spawn, woeful inventory mechanics, recurring and frequent bugs with C.A.M.P. spawning/placement, and totally non-intuitive levelling, and you have an MMO that learned NOTHING from WoW or other pioneers of the MMO space. From vanilla WoW through to Cataclysm, WoW always had a strong storyline and quest-givers that kept you involved - Bethesda could have taken this approach and not rushed the game to market and thereby would have kept the feel of the Fallout world, but alas, they chose not to.
    Overall, after playing Fallout76 for a couple months, giving it more that a fare share of playtime, I can't rate this game more than a 2/10.

A classic Bethesda game, like Fallout 3/ New Vegas or Skyrim, should be single player only and never even attempt to go multiplayer unless they have a good formula and a really, really good reason to do so. With games like Red Dead Redemption 2, Assassin's Creed Odyssey and Spiderman out there at the exact same time, this game just gets demolished under a pile of garbage while the rest is praised to heaven, like it should be. If this game had to be described with one word it would be: Shame. Shame on Bethesda for putting this game out there, as a lowkey cashgrab that dares to call itself 'Fallout'. Expand

    The way I see it there is a glaring problem with Fallout 76: the engine is not aging well and Bethesda should know better. The games just got worse in my honest opinion. Fallout 3 is a MASTERPIECE. New Vegas is a pretty decent game, almost as good as 3. Fallout 4 I could not even finish, got so bored I just gave up. And now, 76 instead of bringing that unforgettable storytelling (which is a trademark of the series) does something completely different, worse!, something the COMMUNITY does not want.

    Fallout is not a coop game, sorry. It's not a multiplayer game, with daily/weekly events, with pvp shenanigans, trying to be a half baked mmo. It's about an individual journey, getting lost in a believable world and hooked by an incredible story.

    Bethesda completely missed the mark. Now they have to deal with the results.

Interaction with other players is very limited.

    They haven't given 2 **** about updating their A.I. since Oblivion, and I pray to God if he is still somehow alive that they never release another title with this horrible system.

    Like seriously, the A.I. in offline mode Recruit difficulty has more competence than these A.I.

    They are milking this franchise till it dies, and I will be surprised if they don't just quit.

    Finally, for some reason, I fear to touch this game now.

    The Fallout New Vegas Multiplayer guy made a more effective mod that people would have probably actually payed money for, not whatever this is.

    And for those of you who are like...

    "If yOu DoNt lIkE ThE GaMe jUsT ReFuNd iT"

    I wish I could, but similar to escape from tarkov, I was only told the implications of what I was buying once I bought the game, and wasn't told how hard of a dicking I was recieving for pre ordering the game.

    Battlefield 2 looks like a passion project compared to what I was given with this.

    I will say **** You' for all of the people who had faith and didn't buy Red Dead Redemption 2 because they wanted to play the new Fallout.

But mostly everyone just ignores each other. Except for the fact, that you suddenly have some chat conversations of some French guys in your living room... Enemies are coming in such big numbers, that you basically die every few minutes. You have to collect and produce stuff all the time - otherwise you'll die. It's just stressing you out. I think I will delete the game and replay Fallout 4 with some mods and additional DLCs. That's way more fun.

Incredibly slow to load, huge amounts of lag, often grinds to a complete halt.
    If this is not bad enough then your faced with multiplayer and with no warning you have lost everything you have spent 2 days collecting, then 2 days later you die and game craps out and you lose it all again. Some instructions or tutorial for the multiplayer would have helped.

Bethesda has created a game that is neither a survival game, a role playing game, or an effective FPS. This game is an amalgamation of all the things it strives to be, yet it fails at identifying as any of them. It does not represent a true survival game out of fear that it would alienate players, it does not show its strength as a role playing game because it has no NPCs and your role playing is limited. Which is odd right? You'd think for a game that is marketed as an online RPG it would have role playing elements, but how can you even role play if you have to consent to be a raider? Last time I checked, raiders don't have to ask for consent to shoot and kill you. The shooting mechanics are about has clunky as they could be. Instead of striving to make things fair and balanced in PVP, they just made something that is clunky and painful to play, and doesn't attract FPS players at all. At least other survival games know they have to rely on PVP mechanics, DayZ's was more fluid and balanced than this game.

    Fallout 76 was an ambitious project that strives to hit every niche, yet suffers horribly from an identify crisis and fails to even hit one of them. It does not appeal to my love for survival games because it fails at being one, it doesn't appeal to my love of role playing because I can't even role play as the one thing I'd want to be, and it doesn't appeal to my love for shooting games because it's clunky and horribly balanced. This game is an abomination.

    Bethesda, listen to your consumers and stop acting like fools, it doesn't "just work" any more. Hopefully this game's reception will be enough of an eye opener.

    So utterly disappointing and flawed in every possible way… The first few hours, most of it can be ignored, and occasionally the flaws can be forgotten, but only briefly before they come storming back to the forefront. An awful, boring, empty, pointless experience. There is, however, a glimmer of hope. It's worth mentioning that there has already been a Bethesda title that was equally as unimpressive: The Elder Scrolls Online - but looking at it now, it has transformed into one of the best MMOs out there. There's always the hope the Fallout 76 develops the same way and becomes something special, but for now, that seems impossible. It's a world away from that.

    Fallout 76 isn't your typical fallout experience. You don't have NPCs or dialogue, but instead get real players that should fill this void - that ultimately fails to do so. It does some things right, but as of now I cannot recommend getting this game as long as it stays a broken and boring mess that it is right now.

    Fallout 76 is the series’ Freshman introduction into the world of online, multiplayer games. As a result, we are experiencing all of the awkwardness and clumsiness associated with that season of life. It is imperfect and a bit uncomfortable, but I see opportunity for Fallout 76 to be more than it presently it - to be a truly great, rich Fallout experience.
