Wow, Bethesda. You broke this longtime fan of your games' heart. What happened to the days of quality games like FO3, Morrowind (annoying file corruption bug aside) and FO: NV?
Hopefully they will get this patched into a semi-playable state for what niche audience there is before focusing on future projects. |

I wouldn't exactly list those as "quality" games DAMN. I mean sure, they are excellent games and I enjoyed all of them....quality? Not so much. They were all buggy messes, ESPECIALLY New Vegas. Bethesda may be good at crafting rich worlds....but they release the buggiest games ever to market and I am amazed they have been given a pass for it for this long.
Anyways, they seriously gave people trash bags instead of the canvas one that was advertised? That's amazing lol |

Ah they switched to nylon I see. Yep, blatant false advertising. Should have them over a barrel on that one.

Having flashbacks of trying to play Skyrim on PS3 and those bastards refusing to give me a refund so I could get it on my Xbox 360 instead.

I never did get to play it. I was so pissed by the time I got through the game despite the memory leak at peak levels of awfulness (I was a completionist, my save file was huge, the leak was brutal) that I have never been able to bring myself to play Skyrim again.

I've read that the Bethesda plans on using the same engine they are using for Fallout 76, for the new Elder Scrolls ( which I imagine will be on the PS5 )... rofl wtf.

Im not on the "its the engine thats the problem" train.
I think the lack of new ideas and a rush to market are their causes of stagnation. |

Agreed, but the engine being old enough to drink isn’t helping.

The same engine that produced morrowind produced skyrim. Its not like they aren't constantlty improving it. I just cant conceed the engine needs done away with. Its needs cleaning up perhaps, maybe a year spent gutting some clutter in the code over the long lifespan im sure its accumulated, but i dont think at its core the GET NEW ENGINE NOW is just flat out ignorant.

So about those bags...theyt did ake canvas bags. Instead of putting them with the $200 collectors edition they gave them away for free to influencers (critics, journalists, youtubers, streamers etc)

Kind of feel responsible since they didn’t hire me to do Quest Design and this is karma hitting them

Bethesda submits to backlash (and their impeding court battle) and will send replacement canvas bags

Hell, even the final Interplay release of Fallout 1/2 included a few community patches on disc alongside the vanilla installs. The least Bethesda could do is... well... that. And also not expect to make extra money from someone fixing their problem for them. I read this, and heard the karma hit noise in my head. |

I'm reposting this again, but adding into that newfound high interest in The Outer Worlds as well.
Add Mutant: Year Zero to this and maybe throw an asterisk by Cyberpunk 2077, and you have an ever growing list of things that are appearing more Fallout than Fallout. |

What fartboi forum did you copy and paste this from? Stop helping the fad The game is really fun with a group of friends, once you gather some levels it is possible to solo some of the content. Not once has the game became "unplayable" and I have it on PS4/Xbox One. |

The game should have been in development another year to add npcs and the kind of narratives that people expect from the series, but after giving the game another chance, I have to admit I’m having a lot of fun with it, even when playing solo. Bethesda definitely deserves to catch some shade for some of their decisions, but as usual with the internet, the “worst game of the year” crap is largely overblown.
As I said earlier this game appeals to a niche group of the fan base who mainly enjoy the more atmospheric elements of Bethesda games and like to just walk around and explore. Again, making a game that only appeals to this group is where Bethesda went wrong. I’ll say one thing though. This game has reignited a shred of faith in gamers not being shit heads all the time, because fallout 76 has one of the best communities I’ve encountered in a long time. Every other player I’ve encountered has either minded their business or given me stuff. No one has fucked with me or my base. Pretty amazing when you consider how toxic the gaming community is in general. |

Part of the blame no doubt lies with investors who probably insisted on the game being rushed out ASAP in the name of the almighty dollar. It doesn't and shouldn't excuse every mistake by Bethesda since launch, but still, if we're going to assign blame, let's keep it 💯.

Part of me wanted to hate it, but I took it and made it my own. It's even better when someone else logs on, making dungeons easier to clear, still at a price to chems/food, but that shit shouldn't stay in your storage that long. For the first few months I no-sold the majority of it's existence, part of it was because I didn't get a call to come work on the game down in Austin. That red devil on my shoulder told me to join the masses and shit on a game I barely gave any thought to after getting rejected. The rejection should have taken me over, but it didn't. |

The wastelanders one specifically, because I'm hoping that the talk of factions and the title indicate the arrival of large numbers of npcs or something

if you happen to play on PS4 or Xbox One, I'll be on for the ride this year. Obviously stopping here and there to play Anthem, MK11 and Cyberpunk 2077

Cyberpunk aint happening this year, no way. Late next year at the earliest. It's going to be next-gen.

I don't think "worst game of the year" is overblown. In fact, I'm more disheartened by this shitshow potentially tanking the IP and the world can possibly be denied another actual, good Fallout game because of the parade of mistakes and missteps taken here only teling Bethesda that they need to take a step back instead of looking at why they need to take that step back and course correct in the future. And for what? To sell some extra Vault Boy swag in their percieved perpetual money-making machine? I feel like Seph: maybe after all that content, and tweaking the game for the better, I might give it a proper go... because I still hate that I am not excited about/really enjoy something that is Fallout. A game that makes me nostalgic for Brotherhood of Steel is clearly doing something wrong. |
