Fallout 76 is a FOMO and Inventory Management Simulator game set in the Fallout universe. It is a near carbon copy of Fallout 4 with regards to gameplay except it has the addition of being multi-player. The story is fresh and interesting and is expanded upon every season. There are, however, multiple gameplay 'penalties' introduced that strongly encourage you to pay monthly for "Fallout 1st" (such as unlimited scrap and ammo storage, which used to be, just like, baked into other Fallout games).

Is Fallout 76 objectively a good game? No, no it is not. You will encounter bugs that have existed for YEARS - quests that don't work, odd dialog pauses for no reason, and occasionally Bethesda just completely breaks stuff (like right now the map is broken and has been for several days). As mentioned it is a near carbon copy of Fallout 4, Engine-wise, so prepare to face things like constantly dealing with the stupid entering-your-power-armor animation 7000 times per play session just because that was how it was in Fallout 4 (Also worth noting there are numerous things you cannot do in Power Armor, like interact with any workbench).

There are a couple "fun" new additions, like your weapons and armor will break and require repairs, and you need to maintain your food and water levels, and oh don't forget the aid items like Stimpaks are really heavy for some reason in a game that limits your storage space.

All that being said, if you love Fallout, Fallout 76 will scratch that itch. There are tons of weapons, armors, skins, paints, and base items to collect. You will encounter familiar faces like Deathclaws and Feral Ghouls, along with new and scarier enemies. There are dozens of events to attend that are (generally) pretty generous with rewards and experience (and stingy on rare plans, to keep you coming back). The game encourages group play and the community is generally pretty nice and helpful with a low quantity of trolls or toxic players.

Most of my complaints are around the infuriating amount of bugs in the game, and the general frustrations caused by stringently limiting player storage/holding space as a result of needing to push players towards a subscription (and even then, the frustrations are only mildly abated, not completely relieved). There exists however a satisfying gameplay loop of earning things, scrapping (or scripping) things, unloading your ill-gotten goods, and heading back out into the Wasteland to do it all over again.

Animal Crossing for badass people!

The Community is really2 good! Thank you so much!

Anyone want to gave me some plan to decorate my camp XD

Rage quit the game. Lots of quests break mid quest. Tons of bugs, hardly playable. I don't think this is even an Alpha release game. Saddest thing is I am a Fallout Fan from the very beginning. Throw this crap out and do better guys. I'm not even joking. Try playing a 3 hour quest line and have your armor glitch and you can't move. Then be forced to restart the whole quest. Try glitching your power armor or stashing amazing loot only to get booted off the server on your quick trip back to get your stuff. Try upgrading your favorite armor to only lose it on some other server issue or update bug.

This is after the game has been out for a long time now.

Honestly, this game should be free with how low the quality is. Game looks bad, runs bad, doesn't feel like a fallout game, not really an RPG because the storytelling the roleplaying elements are so weak.. Just bad. Reskinned FO4 mod but official.

Walk around picking up crap and occasionally finish quests because you're bored, but expect to do a lot of "go talk to X on the other side of the map, then come back and talk to me, then go bring them this item at the same location, then come back again. Then go talk to them again, then return and tell me what they said". This is the forumula for probably 70% of the quests. Gets old really fast.

Don't recommend this unstable and cruddy mess. Definitely skip.

crashes upon loading constantly, super buggy

You know it's suspicious that right before a double cap weekend they mess up the game so bad for everyone except the pay to play players who aren't having problems then promise the fix after the event is over. Can't give a positive review to a company that seems to care little for there player base unless they subscribe monthly.

Elder Scrolls Online, FO76, and now STARFIELD are the reasons why TES6 and Fallout 5 are taking so long to release and for what honestly? What a damn shame that Fallout New Vegas will never be remastered because that truly was lightning in a bottle.

Even 6 years after release the game IS NOT FINISHED WITH PRODUCTION!

after a update the games map is unless. and game play is buggy

This game is a example of how lazy bethesda is. Several years since release, and the same bugs plague the game. Fair bit is fixed, but dont expect a no mans sky from this. Modders are not here to make patches to fix all of Todds oopsies.
