Not the game I would recommend to new fallout fans.

Silver lining is that more people will bully Todd Howard

[–] [email protected] -4 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

I don't know if he can get bullied harder than the show writers who inserted him as Lucy's manlet brother.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Nice body shaming. Also stupid metaphor since Lucy's brother is highly intelligent.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Wow, I feel like an asshole now.

I legitimately thought they digitally downscaled him for dramatic effect.

Oops.

I loved 3 and NV, and I tolerated 4. Now I'm having some fun with 76 and don't quite get the hate.

[–] Melonpoly 32 points 7 months ago

It's because it was a buggy mess with no content on release.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Found the series when 3 released. Like many people I thought fallout would he awesome with coop multi-player. 76 is not the experience myself or I'm guessing most people had in mind. I'm not saying there is anything inherently wrong with the game. Just not what I was looking for when thinking "multi-player fallout".

[–] p5yk0t1km1r4ge 1 points 7 months ago

It's cool to hate on 76 bro, duh.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 7 months ago

It's the best Bethesda's Fallout to day. Less Bethesda writes the better, the gameplay is great.

Because gamers are dumb fucks lol

Edit: ohhh struck a nerve. As a gamer myself, I'd be a fucking liar if I said that the average gamer isn't a complete fucking moron.

But yes, I'm aware of the state of FO76 at release. I honestly could not care less about this game then or now.

The point was that it doesn't matter how much of the game may have been fixed. It could literally be the greatest MMO ever now, and people would say it's the worst game ever because their knowledge of the game begins and ends at the broken launch. And there's a sense of pride in that ignorance. And that's gamers being fucking stupid.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 7 months ago

What a stupid take.

Don't release unfinished shit projects, if you do you've burned your customers and they don't wanna come back.

Trying to gaslight customers for having standards makes you the fucking goob here stupido

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You seem like a real "sense of pride and accomplishment" kinda guy.

I bet you love Cady crush lmao

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I realize that's probably a candy crush typo, but for half a second I thought you were talking shit on Cady Shack for no reason. I was about to put up the dukes.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Lmao

"Gamers are dumb fucks and I'm a gamer."

Well I can't fault your logic.

I had a lot of fun with it with friends in the early days, but it tried its hardest to ensure I didn’t. I remember getting some sweet gear from a friend that was perfect for my build right before a server crash. When we logged back in, the gear was just gone. Customer support completely ignored us.

[–] httperror418 4 points 7 months ago

PSA the game is currently free on Amazon prime gaming

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

I probably won't ever play 76, but I'm happily doing yet another NV playthrough.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

So many scrubs filling the lobbies and not participating in the events.

Get with it, yall. I don't care if the mutated event is lvl 50 and you are level 20. We need bodies to click on things.

[–] Etterra -1 points 7 months ago

Can't stop 76 from sucking. Now kindly work on Fallout 5. I hope it's in Chicago.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 7 months ago

So thats why all the servers are completely looted of daily and weekly challenge items... But uh yeah this is a crap game, Fallout 2 is the best fallout.
