I was so hyped before Fallout 76 and I was so disappointed after the launch and just threw it into the trash.
Bethesda can deliver triple A hype but the whole development story and the customer service behind Fallout 76 is just disgusting. The only positive about the whole disaster: This video. In my opinion it’s one of the best and entertaining videos of all time on YouTube. Watch it before you preorder.
It was pretty obvious that 76 wasn’t going to be great from the get go, but as always; never preorder games!
I hope starfields does not end up like 76 :/
I feel like I’m one of the only ones that enjoyed 76…
I’m with you. 95% of my enjoyment came from playing co-op with my childhood best friend (using discord for voice chat) who I had fallen out of contact with. When we encountered the (many) bugs, we had a good laugh and kept on going.
The 5% that actually came from gameplay? Hmm… Faschnacht was always a hoot. Creative camp builds was also a highlight (basically fallout 4 base building, but other humans actually get to appreciate your creation).
I tried picking up the game on PS5 recently and without the social piece it just seemed like an insurmountable grind (ex. how do I get the mutations I want for a fresh account? How long will it take to unlock backpack space again?)
Still, due to circumstances, co-op FO76 ended up being one of my top 5 gaming experiences in my last 40 years of video games.
Well, now we are two. Fo76 never disappointed me. Though I did wonder if they were crazy for focusing so much on PvP early on in a game so clearly unbalanced.
Though I wish they could have exanded the map a bit. Once everything was explored and the original main campaign was beat, I lost interest. Tried the new main campaign too, introducing NPCs, but the quests just took me to the same old places, and was thematically uninteresting and didn’t fit the world. BoS was better, but again theres a limit to how often I want to enter the few same buildings to find a quest item.
“Internet Historian” is my go-to when I’m feeling down. Absolutely kills me whenever I watch a video from his channel.
His second channel “Incognito Mode” is also one I’d highly recommend!
I love the main channel, but I could never get into the second one.
Still highly recommend the main Internet Historian channel though!
Who steals a huge fuck off Bell?
I don’t know how many times I’ve watched the Costa Concordia Video…
Fallout 76 is a disgrace for the franchise imo. It should never have released like that (or at all).
Internet Historian is a great content creator, all his videos are 10/10.
