fallout 5 denuvo ? or some always inline drm bullcrap u can be damn sure elderscrolls 6 had some bloody online micro transaction store, cloned from blades
It was a mistake to make fallout online it just felt wrong from the start
terrible game but yes i will still buy fallout 5 if its single player
BGS still have some good credit left with me as this was the only game i hated the rest i enjoyed some more than others fallout 4 was week but it was still worth the money imo
This really is one of the most hilarious game fuck-ups that has ever been in the history of man-kind. It's so crazy it's hard to believe it's not 100% staged so that it can be material for a comedy about the gaming industry.
The emails, the shitty merchandise, the cover-ups, how they even try to be nice and friendly with cheaters (because they're much smarter than the team and can give them insights that they don't possess), the "oh forgive us for messing up that expensive merc, here's $0.1 of game currency" (=dear customer, let me piss in your face).. even just one of these things are bad enough to write a story about, this game has like 50
Nah, nowhere near. Worst trainwreck of a game perhaps due to all the mistakes they made with the canvas bag, etc. The game itself is nowhere near as bad as people claim but it could have been soooo much better. If they had put in the effort, this game could have been massive. A multiplayer Fallout game is what people have been wanting for many many years but the world was too generic to work because they didn't have the same amount of time to do a proper job of it.
and thats the whole point of us ranters, we want it to be better, we dont settle for shit mediocrity, but sofar, no fucks given by bethesda cause so many idiots preorderd and they got the cash they wanted out of it it seems

It all depends what you get out of a Fallout game. I love exploring, looting, improving, getting better gear and FO76 was pretty good in that respect. What I didn't like, was how the world was designed - it felt far too fake but then again I hated FONV's fake world layout and the tiny Vegas strip (Obsidian even admitted they didn't like it either but had to do it like that because of technical limitations) even though so many claim it's the best FO game ever so go figure ... I even prefer FO4 to FONV.

yeah that's what i mean, it's one thing if it was just that but there are 50 other things just as bad.. i was really surprised when i watched the video of how bad it really was. The game i don't know, seems absolutely terrible but yes it's a game with a decent budget so i doubt it's comparable to the absolutely worst ones that has existed.. But if you take budget into account and that they still managed to fuck it up as much as they did, then you can probably say it's the worst "AAA"-game.

There's been really bad AAA stinkers over the past few decades - you're giving FO76 too much credit . Most of those stinkers failed because they tried something new or different. FO76 is not the worst game simply because it's based on a good foundation but with very lazy work put into it. It got a really bad rap because it's a very well loved franchise.
STALKER, for example, got "OK" reviews on release but is now a classic. Why? Because STALKER set really high expectations that they didn't deliver on. The game we did get was still great (but a bit buggy to say the least) but in the end, public's opinion shifted and decided it was still a rock solid game once you looked past the bad stuff. FO76 is the opposite : it's based on a solid foundation but the execution is so lazy that after a while, instead of discovering a hidden gem, you're discovering so little love and attention went into the game that your enjoyment turns into regret.
Name something which was even close to as bad of a fuck-up. I don't mean just a bad game, i mean when it comes to how it was handled. I know there are bad AAA games, that's not what i'm saying.
FO76 gets bad reviews because it's a complete fuck up and in so many ways, not just the game, but everything that surrounds it, its currency, the cheats, the hostile emails bethesda sent, the merchandise, the faking of lowered prices on in-game items (in-game items which are sometimes more expensive than the real world equivalent).. the bugs and the bad gameplay is just a tiny part of the bigger whole.
Also, its great foundation probably did it a service more than disservice, that's not why people would give it a bad review. I can probably be a bit more forgiving if something interests me, more than if its just some random universe that i don't care about. I've played plenty of mediocre lotr and star wars games that i probably give too much credit just because its star wars or lotr.
it was a great foundation when oblivion came out in 2006? , but even then it was already at its limits
nah, it's still an above average interesting universe in comparison to most games.. it's not amazing but i thought for example FO3 was really great (havent played FO4). TES is also quite good, even made me read one of the books heh.. I'd say 90% of RPG universes are very uninteresting and with really poor lore etc.
The lore of Morrowind is very high on my list of game lore. While it borrows heavily from dozens of sources the writers really worked their asses off on creating their own lore of Morrowind. From the Heart of Lorkhan to the Nerevarine etc., it's nearly on the same level as good high fantasy authoring.
I still have grave doubts for the quality of the next Elder Scrolls game, and Beth's ability to utterly fuck it up with cashgrab shite.
I mean, Skyrim was not entirely 100% universally hailed as one of the best games of all time, but I still play it 8 years on, and there are very few games with that sort of longevity. Of course, a lot has happened in 8 years, and Beth's greed and utter pisstaking reached full maturity within this time...
I am no longer looking forward to the next Scrolls game. I'm now dreading what it will become.

After some time with it it really seems like a FO:NV-like game that some dickhead empty suit (or maybe the toddster?) decided to turn into an online game on a whim.
Really plays like FO4 with harmless PVP tacked on, which isn't a bad thing since exploration, decent first person shooting, crafting were the strengths of that game for me.
And try to convince us that this shit was in development since 2015? Fuck off todd
Well, the FO:NV like game lurking underneath might, this as a full on online game nah

We’re planning to release an update for the PC version of Fallout 76 today, May 24, to address an issue affecting an exterior lighting file. This will not require downtime, but PC players will need to download the update.
We used an incorrect lighting file when we released Patch 9.5 for PC earlier this week, and today’s update will address this by applying the file we had originally intended to implement. Unfortunately, this is not a small file, and PC players who have already installed Patch 9.5 will receive a download size of approximately 8.5 GB today.
However, as a result of this update, PC players who had not yet applied Patch 9.5 will have a much smaller download size once they do update to the latest version of the game.
Console versions of Fallout 76 are unaffected by this issue and console players who have installed Patch 9.5 will not need to download anything. Additionally, we are not making any gameplay changes, which means there will be no patch notes for this update.
Thank you for your patience and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause for those of you who had already downloaded Patch 9.5 on PC.
Idiots
The guy who made the mistake is probably working 80 hours a week though

They probably anticipated that one part of the community (mainly the Fallout purists) would react negatively. Adding to the problem was the technical state of the game.
And since, in reality, for many players there were TWO problems: [1] the concept and implementation of Fallout online (or multiplayer, if you prefer) + [2] huge technical problems, I'd say one fair question should be:
Did you expect that fans would react negatively to a game that was a piece of shit from a technical perspective.
How can they not have known? This is not an indie studio without any time for testing because they're out of money. I still can't understand how a big studio can release a technical mess. Does no one at the studio take a couple of days to test the product? How is this possible?
The direction the game went is a point of discussion, but the technical state at release was a disgrace.
