Fallout 76

Hopefully the RPG aspects are more well done than they were in 4. 4 got boring pretty quickly IMO, unlike prior entries.

Still haven't even completed 4 TBH, went back to Skyrim instead cos it's actually an RPG. I'll keep an eye on this though.

If that's true, interest instantly lost. I don't need another MMORPG like ESO.

Smasandian Smell the Ashes

I don't think it's a MMO like ESO.

I think it's going to be Fallout Rust.

FinalAnswer Flower

It's going to be like watching two jumbo jets smash into each other.

BackFire Blood. It's nature's lube

Probably won't be interested in this from what I'm hearing. Don't need to shoehorn multiplayer in every franchise. I'll be waiting to see how the reviews and feedback is.

Nemesis X Cynical Tyrant

Well interest immediately lost. No single player, don't want.

Smasandian Smell the Ashes

I'm in wait and see mode before making judgement.

I assume this is an offshoot so it should be allow to take some risks.

I can understand why people wouldn't like this and I agree with them. I would prefer a complete single player experience.

And I'm not sure I would get this anyways right away. But...they did release something regarding private sessions. It might be fun with friends to have a Fallout type map filled with quests, enemies and allow you to build some bad ass settlements. That might be a lot of fun.

I still want to see how this all plays out

As an obvious fan of the franchise, I haven't been very pleased with what I've heard so far about Fallout 76. In fact, my views are very much in line with the guy who made this mod. Get an early taste of Fallout 76 lol:

There are going to be no NPC's at all, just players.

Nemesis X Cynical Tyrant

This does not look fun.

This game looks BALLs! It looks like the same brokedown graphics and physics engine used for every fallout game since Fallout 3. Elder Scrolls and Fallout are designed for a single player experience. Changing that and trying to make the game good at both compromises the game entirely for me. It also doesn’t help that Beta looks atrocious.

It's called a Beta for a reason.

He compares No Mans Sky and Aliens Colonial marines to this latest Fallout game as examples what was promised

Joe needs to revisit No Mans Sky again after all the various updates and as for Aliens Colonial Marines download the Mod someone made for the PC which fixes it up.

Smasandian Smell the Ashes

I might be wrong but what promises were broken with Fallout 76?

Wasn't it pretty obvious on what this game was about?

You need to review a product as is, you don't wait till it's "better" or for fan-made content.

Mods definitely shouldn't account for the replayability or enjoyability of a game.

You're telling me you weren't disappointed at No Man's Sky and especially Colonial Marines?

Furthermore, no matter how many "fixes" it gets, it's still a bad game, just a "playable" bad game.

"Base it on what it gets later" isn't an argument. He reviews what he gets at launch.

Hell I even understand his reasons behind giving "Kingdom Come", which is one of my favorite games, a 6/10, recently. (Even if it shouldn't have been a ****ing rapid fire review for a release that huge).

Besides the awful rendering, lighting, and "landscape" shit.

This game is more buggy then a lot of Bethesda's games at release, which is REALLY saying something.
