Especially because the alternative would be no new Fallout game, it doesn't effect Fallout 5 in any way because the team that would be working on it is currently on TES. If this game ends up being bad Fallout 5 will still come out and be exactly what you would expect from a mainline Fallout iteration.

I see this thread has progressed from "Complaining about a game that isn't out yet" to "complaining about people complaining about a game that isn't out yet" and "complaining about people complaining about people complaining about a game that isn't out yet", right on schedule. The beautiful dance of pre-release banter continues, enjoy it while you can we've only got five more months of this.

This post is so monumentally dumb that it doesn't even deserve a response, but I don't feel like filling out all this paperwork that I have to do so I'm going to craft one anyway. Suffice to say, I don't give a flying poo poo about Star Wars. I haven't seen Solo, but everything I've read suggests that Star Wars is already showing signs of brand fatigue (last I had heard Solo disappointed somewhat at the box office, the last big Star Wars game was a loot box-filled shitfest, and the Star Wars toys that the brand depends on so heavily are largely sitting unsold on toy store shelves). The same thing could happen to Fallout if Bethesda isn't careful--I actually posted earlier in this thread that I was happy Bethesda bought and resurrected Fallout with a game that I liked (Fallout 3) and that paved the way for what is Objectively the Best Fallout Game (NV). I was also impressed that they didn't just try to ransack the IP with tons of crappy games right away like they could have. Fallout 76 seems like a step away from that, and it's not all that promising after the shitheap that was Fallout 4. Hopefully 76 ends up being good (not all that optimistic) and, if it's bad, they can get back on track with Fallout 5 But seriously, fuckin  @ u, the White Knight for feeble weak targets like Bethesda and loving Disney"Someone's saying bad things about Fallout and Star Wars???? Not on my watch  "Edit: and who/what the gently caress is Mara Jade

When i heard Todd Howard say "The people of fallout:76 will be you, the players". Am i the only one thinking this is basically "There will be no NPCs", which is a pretty weird way of doing away with the radial responses

Popete posted:I don't understand how people don't get that this isn't a mainline Fallout game. This is a open world survival game set in the Fallout universe, if you don't like those kinda games then don't get this. They'll make another proper Fallout 5 after TES releases. Did anyone actually expect another Fallout so soon and at the same time as a TES game is in development? People get it. That isn't what they want.

The conversation wheel is still there. Except now it's just god drat loving smiles. Maybe that's what Fallout 5 will have instead of paraphrased options; a happy face for positive response, a frowny face for a negative response, that thing with a capital letter B and close bracket to denote a sarcastic response and then whatever the gently caress this " ;-o " is supposed to be.

Well... that's just sad. But hey! If they remove dialog options and just have your character wildly gesticulate like they're in some silent era movie instead of speaking then there's no reason for Bethesda to go back to a voiced protagonist.

Doesn't this whole game really feel like a suit at Bethesda had a meeting asking why one of their biggest IPs didn't have an online installment. Fallout 76 is pretty much the result. A side project/experiment to put out in the interim before Starfield and Elderscrolls VI hit.
