Fallout 76

Wanted to try some fishing, expecting a fun side activity. Nope. It’s been deliberately made awful due to rampant monetization. The gameplay experience has been degraded in order to push a monthly subscription. Want to play in peace and not have your immersion constantly ruined? That'll be 15 euros a month, please. Like to hoard items? Pay up. The game is full of pointless "hamster wheels" designed to keep you logging in daily – all to ensure maximum engagement with the Atom Shop, which peddles game assets at astronomical prices. Fallout 76 could have been a great game if its multiplayer aspect had been implemented like Ark: Survival Evolved or Palworld, allowing for single-player options, hosting/renting servers, and most importantly, mods.

loved the game, but putting a $30 paywall on fish bait in the new update is ridiculous. while I have over 1800 hours in steam in FO76, I can no longer support this obvious money grab. the atomic shop has really sucked over the past year, and now putting a generator behind a real money pay wall.... just sad. Screw you Todd! UPDATE: Fishing is stupid. I dont know why i was pissed about a bait generator. Dont even fish any more. Atomic shop still sucks though.

Well I waited until I had 1000+ hours in before writing this, so now here goes. I've been a Fallout fan from the first game, played all them in between and like so many of the old one's, this one has problems, clipping graphics, bodies that fly off after into the great blue yonder, money grabs etc. The game has been both fun and frustrating at the same time, Hell I had to re-purchase the game due to all my past games were deleted by them and non-recoverable (It was years before). I'm medically retired now due to cancer, and bored so I came back. Lots of good changes were added, and some bad, it seems the way of games anymore, well in all truth, it always has been. I will end this by saying, don't take everything seriously, enjoy what you can and knowing that, the game can be fun and always remember that "War, War never changes." both internally and externally.

I absolutely CANNOT recommend this game. While i have had some fun moments with friends, I've encountered more bugs than an infested crack house on a Sunday night. With most bugs, I've been able to do (usually) hours of research on and figure out. One made it to where i could not progress a main story quest for a MUCH NEEDED resource you can only unlock once completing the quest. Apparently this bug has been a known thing for YEARS and it hasn't been fixed. (Thank you REDDIT for the solution to that one btw because support was no use.) I've now run into a bug where i can't use my main gun (a priceless legendary i spent a hefty amount of time grinding for) only for Bethesda to tell me "did you try uninstalling and reinstalling the game?" Seriously? I've bought your game, bought a couple months of Fallout 1st back when i first started playing because I didn't know any better, and THIS is how you treat your community? After my time doing research for each bug, I've come to realize that a majority of the community feels the same. We need to push these reviews and let these newbies know not to get invested in a game made by people who don't care. You're only going to get burned in the end. What an unfortunate circumstance. This could have been a game beyond it's time. If only it weren't made to be a MONEY GRABBER. And don't even get me started on how awful building is and how they changed the monthly seasons rewards despite the lash back. All of it comes back to greed.

Bethesda seems determined to ruin this game. Every update they completely re-balance the game in the most idiotic way possible. It's an uphill battle of building a good perk card load-out and gear only for it to be nerfed the very next update. This constant moving of the "re-balancing" goalposts is a poor distraction to the fact that the game has zero endgame content and is mind-numbingly boring. I've repeatedly rebuilt multiple characters for the past 3 updates at great time and in-game resource expense. Upon hearing that the update coming this autumn is going to have yet another combat re-balance I'm just gonna cut my losses and stop playing because I really can't be bothered to spend hundreds of hours gathering stuff to rebuild my characters yet again for them only to be useful for a couple of months. That's only the most recent problem and just the beginning of what's wrong with this game. For example, Fallout 76 takes a massive departure from the style of the other fallout games and is full of much more zany, often cringe humour and dialogue writing. The art direction is also much worse than the other games and it's getting progressively worse every update. A recent trend amongst the fallout 76 art team appears to be just sticking glowing crystals to everything to make stuff look more "radiation-y" (I.e. Vulcan Power Armour). Not to mention most of the game's original creature designs are just gigantic real-world mutated animals with little explanation as to how they became so large aside from the usual beaten dead horse of a plot device: F.E.V or generic radioactive mutations. Though I have to give them credit for the mutant creatures based on Appalachian urban legends and Cryptids, though they're few and far between and you rarely see them outside of a couple circumstances. The game also has a horrible monetisation model. You essentially have to pay a €/£12 monthly fee to even play the game since very basic features like convenient item and ammo storage are locked behind this subscription based paywall. The Atomic shop is another story. It's full of pay to win items like plans for crafting endgame weapons, multiple infinite item generators and powerful consumables. There are also a lot of cosmetic items in the Atom shop that may at first seem like a harmless way to make some money, but, many of the items are just lazy re-skins of items already in the Atomic shop but are sold again at full price. It's the kind of monetisation I would expect out of a shady mobile game. I was willing to overlook the game's shortcomings as a true to form Fallout game when it was still essentially a fun Fallout themed sandbox you could play with friends. Though after all this faux re-balancing, continued lack of end game content and exploitative monetisation it has absolutely nothing going for it.

I've been enjoying the game, especially playing with friends, but every time I even THINK about getting Fallout 1st, some egregious glitch has us restarting the game to get things working properly again. I recommend the game on sale, but only if you want a Fallout game you can play with friends, otherwise you're probably better off with a single player game that you can mod as you see fit, and not have the full suite of live service shenanigans... cash shop, subscription-locked content, season passes with the predictable basic/deluxe options. It's just so overdone across the industry and makes games bad on purpose.

Overhated, yet completely rife with untapped potential. The gameplay loop of Fo76 is comprised of 3 parts 1. A typical fallout experience 2. Building your personality (Character, Camp, Culture) 3. A light smattering of MMO-centric progression. FAQ Is this playable without Fallout 1st? Absolutely, it is largely accessible without first. You will miss out on convenience (stash weight will be a problem unless you are active about cleaning out). You will be locked out of some cosmetics. NO GAMEPLAY IS LOCKED BEHIND FIRST. Has this game improved since launch? This game is leagues better than it was, with even more support coming. This is not a "No Mans Sky" level of turnaround, but I absolutely believe this a worthwhile fallout entry at this point in time. What are the worst parts about Fo76? Bugs, Crashing, and Bethesda optimization. Bethesda is slow to fix bugs, let alone fix engine issues. On PC, I haven't run into too many issues, but they are there and they are annoying. What is your biggest gripe? Update the music PLEASE. It has been years listening to this same radio host with the same song. I'm begging. Give it a chance on Deep Sale, be pleasantly surprised. It's as they say, Fo76 so good when you ain't got a guy in ya ear telling you it's worthless.

Fallout 1st Is some BS also how the hell is most of this multiplayer game single player quests? cant do anything with a group.

I bought it on sale after finishing Fallout 4 because why not + im a fan of the series. The game is just a pure slogfest and its VERY uninteresting, the combat has that 0.5 sec of lag that gets tiring after a while and the whole concept of post-apocalyptic horror is gone, its a 60s America fest at this point but with radiation and monsters and bandits something. Look elsewhere.

This game is fun to play but everything about fallout 1st ruins it. what kind of battlepass doesn't get you all the base rewards when you hit tier 100, objectively stupid.

Look at it like this. Fallout 76 is an official mod overhaul of Fallout 4 with MMO lite features. It was a hot mess at launch, but its kind of growing on me. Once you realize that certain items in your inventory weight a ton ( missiles, water, stimpacks) and learn to manage your inventory accordingly the game is not bad at all. The card perk system makes the game and once you find your build it all comes together. Is it game of the year? No. Is it a game now worthy of your consideration and a blast to play with friends? Absolutely. Dont over think it.

Do you like Fallout? Do you like Base Builders? Do you like FPS or TPS? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, then this game is not for you.

Bethesda really don't know what players want anymore. Fallout 76 was a tone deaf attempt to cash in on live services with all the scummiest practices possible. Now all we can look forward to each year is more of this crap instead of actual new fallout content we want to play. The only reason I tried this was to play with a friend in coop but the other shitty mechanics ruined it. Also, the ability to play on a private server is locked behind a subscription. Why not release the content as a download for players who own it to enjoy offline, to mod and to play like we do your other games. Or just release this stuff as a DLC for Fallout 4. Let us visit this area, even if it is through an Operation Anchorage style VR machine. Let us play through the story of the 1st survivors as recorded by Vault Tec. Just think about the players who are not playing this game, that would if it was a traditional fallout game? Surely that would be a decently sized market that would pay for it. The content has already been created, you just need to give it to us in a way that we want to play. I am posting this while waiting for the Xbox games showcase 2025 and they are making me watch people fish in Fallout 76 for 30 minutes. Maybe I will be surprised in an hour, but I doubt it. I will change this review if this showcase changes my mind, but don't hold your breath

The most recent addition of 'fishing' in the game has been a dismal failure in my opinion. The minigame is a frustrating mess, the progression unrewarding and to top it off they've added a pay-to-win bait generator in the shop. Ever since the Gleaming Depths Raid release Bethesda's practices have become increasingly manipulative and predatory. Not a good time to be a fan of Fallout.

I've been here since release and I can say that I still love this game. Is it the best MMO on the market? Certainly not. But over the years the game has changed much for the better. I enjoy being able to explore the wasteland with my friends and have made great friends through the various online communities that center this game. Give it a shot!

Bethesda went from my favorite studio to my most hated. Their mocrotransactions are greedy and predatory, the gameplay has been the same since 2015, and they dont even give proper updates! FO1st is better than eso in the sense that it takes more from you wile you get less out of it. My wife and I canceled our 1st after repeated garbage updates and privateservers being worse than pubs. . Save your time, dont play this game. Most of my play time is loading and reloading, not playtime.

Have you ever wanted to play Fallout with friends? What about Fallout 4? If you've ever dreamed about playing Fallout 4 with friends in 2025 without any graphical updates and few mechanical differences but with lots of extra cosmetics and (much) [i]better[/i] quest lines, then you'll enjoy this game. However, it isn't all sunshine and roses: the Atom store, your main source of [i]newness[/i] is severely overpriced with most content at double its actual value. The DLCs, however nice, are rarely worth the cost and rarely provide the value they say they do. Lastly, Fallout 1st is a downright scam given how badly the QoL improvements it provides are needed: I hope you like never having enough storage space and being excluded from certain Atom shop sales. 1200 lbs just isn't enough given its the [b]only[/b] storage in the game, all other forms of storage generally are just specialized connections to it, and gear weight is purposefully bloated when placed in the stash. As a live service game, you'd think it'd get more than just content drops; you'd be [b]wrong[/b]. Well known bugs which have existed for years are still in the game. Hope you enjoy getting stuck in the donning power armor animation and waiting until it times out and teleports back to your inventory (a couple minutes). So a decent amount of good and a lot of bad. Still better than vanilla Fallout 4; Fallout 4 with mods and main quest overhauls...outside the scope of this review and a whole different story.

Please do yourself a favour and play anything else. It may look cool and interesting, I assure you it's pretty nonsense in service of drawing you to the most boring game ever made. The quests are tedious slogs which all fractal into 3 more tedious slog objectives with no fun to be found even if main parts of it don't break and halt your progress 80% of the way through a dungeon forcing you to restart from the beginning. The servers are geriatric and the game always takes 2-3 seconds to remember that you're trying to use a workbench or open a door, a solid third of your ammo will be eaten by the poor hit registration and even the camera is jittery and unresponsive sometimes, no matter which server I'm on or time of day. This ill-conceived piece of shit isn't worth the silicone it's printed on and certainly not worth £100 a year with the stupid subscription racket, if you buy that you are a tool of the highest order. This is an insult to the legacy of fallout and an insipid cashgrab.

[h3]This game is dreadfully boring (and broken).[/h3] Microtransactions, always online (unless you buy mothly subscribtion, which contains solo world lol) glitched NPC's and something that doesn't let me enjoy this game at all, which is ultra easy difficulty. Like whose idea was it to make a Fallout game without higher difficulty settings, i played 13 hours and haven't died ONCE, and not because im good, its because enemies deal at best 4 DAMAGE! I WOULD HAVE TO SIT STILL FOR A MINUTE FOR THEM TO KILL ME HOW IS THAT FUN?? You can EASILY kill npc 30 lvl's higher than you without a sweat, its just so boring, no challenge whatsoever, just run and gun no brain required. Additionaly, ghouls, riders, and other mobs are braindead. You can shoot them an they don't react, one moment they're chasing and after a while they forget their task. Basically twitching, lagging and stuttering like they got 200 ping. It's pathetic that Bethesda never did anything about that for 7 years since release. I've spent 160 hours in Fallout 4 last year and had 10x better time that in this pile of garbage money grab, im so dissapointed. I even had more fun in Fallout 3. Btw. you can't change brightness in this game. I've never in my life seen a game without brightness setting. update: after a while i started to ignore bugy AI and now its actually pretty fun to grind new weapons, still don't recomend tho

Made it 40mins to the game before I realized I can't even build walls. Every wall in the CAMP build menu requires me to pay. They give you basic flooring. But not a wall?! I'm not spending more money on this trash just to use one of the core functions of the game. I thought maybe the game had improved in 5 years but I guess they made it worse.

I first played many years ago and left because of the many quest bugs. Fired it up again to see if it had improved. It was better but still had plenty of quest glitches. The quest to get the chinese stealth armour was way past annoying. I spent a huge amount of time grinding to get the secret service armour. But then was hugely disappointed to find I still had to grind for modules and bullion to upgrade. Also their were times I would learn a plan and not be able to craft it. Disappointment! Grinding to get enough modules for a mystery legendary effect only to roll rubbish. The whole game is full of disappointment. P.S Fishing in a game should at least be relaxing not maddeningly annoying.

yo, to stupid developer, there is a BUG in the that have NOT BEEN FIXED for 6 YEARS.... I can't proceed the game this stupid game, wasted my money.

[h1]Meh.[/h1] I gave this game a "thumbs down" because there's no "sideways thumbs" option. It's not a very bad game but it's not the best Fallout game I've played either. I will use Fallout 4 as caparison point for parts of my review, I am aware that Fallout 4 is not considered to be the best Fallout game either but it is the most similar to Fallout 76 so let's go with that one. Since there are some good points, I'll talk about those too. [h2]The Design[/h2] The world in Fallout 76 is good-looking and definitely has a Fallout feel to it. It is more green and colourful than what we had in Fallout 4, which was all grey and brown mostly. [h2]The Junk[/h2] There is stuff everywhere. you pick everything up, you get over encumbered. That's how it's supposed to be. [h2]The Building[/h2] There is a ton a stuff you can build in Fallout 76 but you have to grind forever to unlock them. On top of grinding for scrap parts, you have to find plans to be able to build some items and in other cases you need to purchase items from the in-game shop before you can use them, that shop uses some kind of in-game currency and it takes a lot of grinding to earn it. Oh and of course you can also pay for for various kinds of premium access passes that give access to other items that you can craft. Sometimes they have free stuff in the store. I was able to get a floor and now my shack needs walls and I have to pay for those with the in-game currency, and then I'll need to get a rooftop, at this rate, it's gonna take months of grinding to get those. In Fallout 4 there's also stuff that you won't be able to build to build unless you pay for the DLCs but after that there's only the grinding for scrap parts that is left to do and all the basic items are available right away. [h2]The Gear[/h2] Your weapons and armour break over time. They also have levels so you can't use them if your character's level is too low. In Fallout 4, they don't break and get to use them when you find them, no matter how overpowered they might be. [h2]The Perks[/h2] The way the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. skill points are handled in this game if not like before. They implemented some kind of skill card system that allows you to switch between cards so your perks can change as needed. It is an interesting mechanic but I think it'd be more appropriate to use that for a new franchise, instead of going around and modifying the tried-and-true mechanics of a game there has a certain legacy. [h2]The Grabbing[/h2] Remember how you could drop stuff from your inventory and then grab it and move it around to decorate your settlements in Fallout 4? Well you can't do that here. [h2]The Online Stuff[/h2] It is nice to come across the other player's camps while roaming the wasteland and the vending machines are a nice touch. I can't talk about playing in teams with other players though, I don't really do that sort of stuff. [h2]The Conclusion[/h2] Considering I purchased that game at a 75% discount, i'd say I'm still getting my money's worth but I prefer the one-player Fallout games.

Bethesda slop, but a good community and.. fishing!

Having played this game on multiple systems, I have seen the positives and negatives of this game. I must say, playing with people was an amazing experience at first, which I enjoyed. However I didn't appreciate how Bethesda lied about the graphics fidelity and the vibrancy of the world. It seems about as good as Fallout 4 without mods, which isn't good. I also don't appreciate the constant monetization. While I think some aspects are good - such as the new creatures, the experiences you can have with friends, and fighting the end-game Scorch beast Queen with a ton of pals, and then launching nukes. It's just repetitive. Now, I haven't played recently, however even with the new content, I would much rather they just focus their efforts on the next main Fallout title. Overall, a mediocre experience. Yet, if it's on sale. Maybe try it. 6/10

I've some history with the fallout series, given that I've played every fallout since the original, and There are a few issues with this one. Firstly, I do pay for the Fallout 1st subscription, for a few reasons. 1st up, the scrap box and ammo store. Without it the stash space is so limited it's very difficult to keep a decent store of anything, and also I enjoy playing with family rather than the general public. There are some great people in the community (the guy who dropped off 500 rounds and a lvl 1 marksman's rifle fully decked out springs to mind when i logged in with a brand new character), but the amount of dicks following around someone who was over 100 levels lower than you just so you could repeatedly kill them with a knife seems silly. however, the issues don't stop there. The levelling system for the weapons and the armour isn't great. I get it, you need to keep upgrading as you go to match your level, but whats wrong with unlocking ether better basic weapons, or levelling up the weapon as your character levels as in all the other fallout games? I hate that the atoms are so hard to earn in game, and so expensive to buy. I dislike the fact that a lot of the missions are so copy and paste, and that there's very little to really get excited about at the minute in the terms of the seasons, and most of the promised addons are essentially a very quick seek mission, and done (thinking the ghoul quest here) The main quest line is not really much to get absorbed into, and doesn't really have a great pay off. All in all, the game can be enjoyable if you're away from idiots, and can play on a server with a decent group, but it's one of those I pick up for a chill session everyone in a while, run about doing what ever I feel like at the time, but to be honest when something more enjoyable comes along, I may well just walk away. sad really as I love Fallout, and I think what I and most people wanted was essentially a fallout 4 multiplayer when this was announced. Sadly this is not it.

I bought this game over a year ago for a low price of 10 euros. I played it then to level 20 something with friends, and I didn't really give the game a fair chance. Now I decided to play it with my full attention, and I really really enjoy this game. I don't often leave reviews, but I'm going to now for games I really appreciate, this being one of them. Wanting a game that I find relaxing, fun, and rewarding, I think this game ticks all the boxes. I'm level 30 something writing this, and I have watched some videos on the game, but I don't want to know much, I'd rather go in blind. I've enjoyed everything about the game, and I look forward to taking part in higher level content/end game stuff. The only thing I find annoying, and greedy on the part of Bethesda is their over priced fallout 1st. I know it is not needed, but at 15 euros a month for what they offer is laughable, and I'm actually surprised people use it. The atom shop is still bad in my eyes, but less so since you can earn that currency from playing ( I know this whole pay to skip is normal these days, but I will never understand it) Those two things aside, the game itself is really enjoyable. Edit: Upon playing more it seems they have made it so it's a longer process to get atoms which is typical of bethesda, disgusting honestly. They barely even drip feed you atoms trying to push you to pay 15 euros a month which you get no value from. Their greed kinda spoils the game and makes it a negative. I will still play, like the game overall but they sour the taste with their insane levels of greed. They want you to pay to the game is more convenient, that's not how it is supposed to work. I know it works on the new gamers who play fortnite etc, but people less gullible don't fall for it.

They added a ton of stuff with characters and some story. However its not the multiplayer fallout we'd hoped for. It takes forever to do anything or to get going. Being able to raid other peoples stuff is cool. Witnessing the nuke feature can also be cool but theres no objective and no reason to play. You don't really earn much or have a purpose.

It sucks. Paywall this and that. feels like a broke multiplayer feature that should have a story line game to go along with it but they forgot it.

This is Elder Scrolls Online monetization. 90% of the items come from the cash shop, the other 10% are from "Seasonal Content" which is just random items tossed in to complete the set of items you just bought for $18. The seasons are rewarding less and less items over time, more and more keep popping up for that sweet, sweet $$$ though. Oh dont forgot you have to have "Fallout First" (Monthly Sub) to get the rest of the items, and for carry weight, and scrap, and ammo. Also the Survival Tent which is a portable mini camp you can set anywhere that you cannot get without Fallout First. ONLY get this game if you're planning on subbing monthly. If you don't you will feel punished for it, the game is designed that way. The sub costs as much as WoW for a 1/10th of the content. I love the Fallout world which is why I continue to play this game, sadly Bethesda does not care about the game as much as the fans do. They do however care greatly about you opening up your wallet. EDIT. I was wrong, you have to buy a $30 bundle on steam for the rest of the items that are FROM THE SEASON. So, to get all the new items you need, 1. Fallout First 2. The $30 Bundle from Steam 3. About $50 for the cash shop items. That's around $100 for the new fishing items. So expect to spend around $100 per season now it looks like if you want to collect the set items.

I love this game. I always find myself coming back to it even though I hate how bethesda is handling it. It is becoming more predatory every season it goes on. Less items on the scoreboard (this game's battlepass). Scoreboard becoming more grindy every season. Higher prices on the atom shop. The gameplay loop of this game is amazing just like every other fallout and skyrim game. But I just can't recommend this game with the direction it is going in. Unless some changes are made to the scoreboard to include more items and reduce atom shop prices I will go ahead and keep my review to not recommended.

Do you like a game that crashes all the time? Then Fallout 76 might be for you. Want to do a super cool event? NOPE CRASH TIME! Want to do something mundane like camp building? NOPE CRASH TIME! Want to RAID? BWAHAHAHAHHAHAHA HOPE YOU LIKE CRASH TIME AND LOADING SCREENS! Seriously, this game has been out too long for them to not address this issue at all. If you haven't bought this already, don't waste your time or your money on this.

there is a clear box that just consistently stays on my screen its an eyesore its annoying and cannot be removed ruined my whole experience fix your game and make it run right i mean why dont bethesda games work even the oblivion remaster cant run without issues and yes i have a system that can handle these games

>browsing the interwebs >notice a new update for Fallout 76 >Gone Fission >hmmm what a clever name >find out it introduces fishing >huge_erection.png 10/10 would go fishing :)

Fishing - worst mechanic of all. Farm farm and farm for wasting time with no result. Activity that should entertain players in that simple game only takes time for nothing.

If you like bugs and paying (real money monthly) for basic storage and constant grind you'll love this game.

Bethesda has no interest in making their own game playable. The amount of bugs is pretty much total now, affecting every single thing in the game. They only fix bugs that benefit players, and game-breaking bugs are ignored (caravans still bugged nine months after launch). Spend your money elsewhere, Bethesda will only use it to further ruin the game.

its a good game but its ruined by microtransactions it feels like a bad f2p game thats 40$ its laggy as hell it took 5 minutes for me to load into the world this game should have never been made and just been multiplayer for fallout 4 it might seem like I hate this game and the devs I dont I love bethesda lts just I hate microtransactions especially in games that you have to PAY for I know your trying to make money its just please lower the prices bethesda and fix the bugs If you get the game get it on sale please! #makefallout5

Trash game. All the cosmetics everything just trash.

i teleport to the whitesprings refuge and now my game crashes everytime i try to join a server

this game is boring, grindy and empty. that's all, just buy fallout NV or fallout 4

This shit of a game freezes my entire pc after a few minutes of gameplay. IOnly option in that situation is power button reset. People with high end pc's have the same issue and no solution. Nice one shithesda nice one

I cried watching Tod reveal the Gem early one morning before school, Game still makes me cry, just wish it was for the same reasons.

Still loads of fun even 7 years later. Not a masterpiece but I like it more than other games.

Most of my time spent on this game is on my xbox where I'm lvl 180. I first got the game maybe about a week after it released, it was a buggy piece of shit and quite empty. But over the years of hopping on and off I truly believe this game has become something great. Is it the best fallout game? No not by any means, but I do think it is worth your time.

Fallout 76 – A Broken Game We Can’t Stop Playing Fallout 76 is a game with so much potential—but it feels like it's being held together by a single overworked intern. Years after launch, many infamous bugs still haunt the wasteland, untouched despite being common knowledge. Some fixes would take minimal effort, yet they remain ignored, as if Bethesda is allergic to polishing their own game. The content drought is real. The endgame is painfully shallow, offering little more than repetitive grinds that lose their charm fast. As someone who doesn’t mind spending money on in-game purchases, even I struggle to find anything worth buying. The Atomic Shop is filled with bizarre, non-canonical, and often downright ugly cosmetics—who exactly is this for? Power Armor skins that look like they were designed by a sleep-deprived intern? Camp items that clash with Fallout’s aesthetic? It’s baffling. And yet… here we are. Still playing. Still logging in. Why? Because we love Fallout. The world, the atmosphere, the idea of what this game could be keeps us coming back. We endure the crashes, the bugs, the lack of meaningful updates, and the frustration of watching a game with so much promise languish in mediocrity. Fallout 76 is like a toxic relationship—we know it’s bad for us, but we can’t quit. We keep hoping, against all logic, that maybe one day Bethesda will finally give it the attention it deserves. Until then, we’ll keep wandering the wasteland, muttering, "It just works… right?" Verdict: 5/10 – A mess we can’t abandon, because beneath the jank lies a Fallout game we still want to love. Fix it, Bethesda. Please.

Highly recommend becoming a Ghoul now and Goin Fishing makes the game alot more fun.

Have 700+ hours on this game across pc and xbox, still not bored of it.

fun but has the most sh*t video settings, i can get 30 fps with stuttering while stuttering on lowest settings.

I really really like the game but lowkey at the start i was clueless but its really easy like how fast paced it is still havent nuked anything yet but the day will come
