chinese frogs need to be protected or they will soon be polluted by chemtrails like our sad, failing american frogs
This is now my gamer discussion thread
Somewhere out there there is somebody for whom fallout 76 was a huge passion project and that person must be so disappointed that people just don’t get it now that this game is being absolutely crushed by fans, reviewers, and random passers-by in the street
The game really never had a chance
I think it was a cool idea but people are just too wary these days of multiplayer cash-grabs and general bethesda copy-pastes
have you used it on your dick yet
yep feels mega good on the glands
how quick
I mean it’s Bethesda fallout is nothing but a cash cow to them and there’s nobody at Bethesda that has any passion for fallout. If they wanted a good game they would’ve let obsidian make another fallout. Bethesda has gone the way of Ubisoft and started making games with a formula instead of an actual development process.
Everyone knows Bethesda killed fallout starting with fallout 3 but at least that game was entertaining because oblivion with guns was fun enough to play for 60 hours and do all the side quests. New Vegas was great and fallout 4 was like they took literally the worst parts of fallout 3 and made them the core gameplay. Anybody who played fallout 4 and thought “this is a good game” is actually retarded.
Leave it to those retards at Bethesda to kill a franchise with a cult following just because they’re terrible at making games. If they just spent the money to hire back the writers for the original fallouts and put Josh Sawyer (the actual people who have passion for the series) as the director of every fallout game they could be taking in cash by the truckload but instead they just make a shitty terrible game that’s unfun to play and has already been done by them for the past 10 years.
Fallout 1&2 + new Vegas are the only fallout games worth playing
Fallout had a fan base that was just about the definition of a cult following. No Mutants Allowed stayed active for years just playing fallout 1+2 and the van buren project before Bethesda came and killed the entire franchise with two games written by complete retards and designed by dumb fucks who can’t make games (Todd Howard)
Here I’ll just let NMA (No Mutants Allowed) rip on this game more than I ever could
been watching 10 minutes now.
I still have no idea what Fallout 76 is about.
It just looks like you're running around with other players, barely interacting and shooting and looting stuff.So Fallout 4 but take away whatever semblance of end goal it had and replace it with other players you can barely communicate with.
The more I look at it though...
This just looks like a mod.I'm dead serious, everything about it looks like it'd be a mod.
The only "new" thing would be the perk cards and stuff but even that looks like it could come from a mod.The way player names look, the way VATS is set up, the way trading works, the way emoticons work.
Everything about it just feels like it comes out of a mod.The build your own camp isn't new.
The UI is the same.
Looting is the same.
Gunplay is the same.
Crafting is the same.
Everything from Fallout 4 is in there with zero modification except where it is absolutely needed.And even there the modification feels halfassed.
If you took this footage and put it in Fallout 4's worldmap it'd be a believable mod showcase.It looks 'that much' like a mod.
And I mean, a shitty mod at that.Like, let's take Fallout 4 and give it mutliplayer.
But what happens with all the NPCs?
Eh.
Let's just remove them for the alpha build.And that's this.
Empty.
Hollow.
The most interesting thing is that you can find petrified ashen statues of people from the nuclear blasts.
No idea how they turn into that since the surrounding area barely looks destroyed but whatever.
If you interact with them they fall apart into ashes.The wolf is a reskin of vicious dogs.
The uh... Bloodsucking insect thingie looks liek a reskin of a radroach.
There's super mutants cause who cares.
I suppose the HUD got an ever so slight redesign. If one can even call it that.Map obviously looks different. Personally I think the map makes it look even more like a mod.
Like they couldn't be arsed to design an area map like FO4's.
So they just went on google and looked for some tourist thingie."Hey do you wanna play Fallout 4 with your friends?"
yeah sure that could be cool."ok, we'll give you a new gameworld with stuff to shoot and loot"
Wait, no quests or NPC's?"no"
So what do you do?"shoot and loot"
That's the salespitch for this game.
There's nothing else to it.It's literally just a mod for FO4 with a new gameworld.
I guess my point with my little rant here is this: I think it looks unprofessional and sloppy.
Like, they didn't even care to give us anything substantial.
Even on Bethesdas own terms.Like, ok, more of the same?
Not necessarily a bad thing.But this isn't more of the same.
This is less of the same.There could be smaller things we don't really get from just watching the video though.
Apparently Bobbleheads are now consumable items.
The Big Guns one gives you +20% damage for big gun weapons for an hour.
So maybe there's a lot of little tweaks like that.
But on the face of it, it really just feels like they're selling us a mod.Like I said, it looks and feels empty.
At least a proper story with NPC's would give it some sort of narrative structure to lead you towards some kind of end.
This is like playing that STALKER mod that gives you infinitum gameplay.You just kinda meander around.
Not really doing anything.
Because there is no clear set goal.It's like a lot of open world games after the final mission where the game just lets you back in.
Except you start there. At the end.I dunno about you but personally I just fail to see the point in continuing playing at that point.
There's nothing to look forward to.If F76 had a bit more to its player interactivity I could see a point in just letting players run around in a sandbox waging war on one another.
But the way they've implied neutering PK and PVP just makes it sound so unappealing<
Yeah i agree
Though some of the blame can be shifted to the ■■■■■■■■ fans and "games journalists" that convinced the world Skyrim was good and FO3 was good so that bethesda believed they could make good games
I mean just look at this shit - there are people in the world that think producing bad work is "funny" and "quirky"
Not to mention the mass of idiots that are like: "its a great game you just have to mod it"
That's not bethesda's work and don't give me that shit about community-building. Some pervert worked for free to design a mod so that you could walk around a medieval world in a fursuit wit ha big dildo sticking out the front and now you're on reddit telling me bethesda produced a masterpiece
You don’t have to mod them, but yeah todds a crook and fallout has been a shit franchise since 3 and 76 is ass gee who woulda guessed
My favorite complaint from my group of friends is that they were planning on playing like bandits out of that ubisoft mmo shooter and now Bethesda is peemptively comingup with a way to discourage that kind of behavior by like marking you if you kill other players without them trying to fight back so there’s absolutely no point to even play for them. In a game that’s basically post society I don’t see why you need to come up with a way that is just essentially correcting player behavior when it doesn’t fit the world you built for it, a world that should be basically lawless
Fallout 3 was good and it’s better than new vegas and fallout 4
Ur just everywhere with the wrong opinions today
I think fo76 will secretly be a good game and nobody will notice until like 2 years after release
-
If the old fallout games were good why did they make the third one TOTALLY different?
-
If this new TOTALLY different wasnt good, why’d they make two new games identical to it (while failing to capture its spirit) ?
I’ll be diplomatic: They’re all bad but fallout 3 wasn’t as bad because it was the first one and it kept you interested for about 4 hours of playtime before the new take on the extremely boring game concept (rpg games) got stale
I think games in general are bad and have bad stories and bad writing (written for teenagers and man-children) but occasionally someone manages to do something good
for example I think the dialogue of portal was good
The best modern game with the best story is probably Team Fortress 2.
another game that isn’t good and never was good
