I really want this game to be good because a lot of the quests in it seem pretty interesting. But I'm also not going to buy it until it's either cheap as hell or it's actually at least mediocre. I'll check again in 3 months.

I think it’s at least moving in the right direction. I think I put in something like 200-300 hours before I decided I couldn’t take some of the shitlordery of some players. Some of the changes they have made and are planning are really good, but it’s just a shame that it’s taken as long. Also kinda stupid how much they ignored so much of what people said they didn’t want from this game.

I think I'll look into picking it up once they release whitelisted private servers where people can tweak the rules and do stuff like permanent structures.

If the game ever lets you use mods the most popular ones will be crafted legendary weapons.

It isn't poo poo, I've played poo poo games before. You can have a long run of fun if you like poking through the ruins and landscape and popping mutant heads. A fair amount of the story stuff, though confined to holotapes and notes for now, is better than the standard fair of Bethesda writing. It's just alright, is all. Not great, not terrible. Just..20-30 bucks worth of alright.

*installs fallout 76 again to see if it got any better* FIRST YOU MUST COLLECT 10 DOOHICKEYS BUT ONE OF THE DOOHICKEYS IS BEHIND A LOCKED DOOR THAT REQUIRES 20 DOODADS TO OPEN. ONE OF THE DOODADS REQUIRES YOU TO KILL 50 DERPS TO COLLECT 40 HERPS TO CRAFT THE DOODAD *uninstalls*

To be fair Charlotteville was in 2017 and Obama was still president in July '16 so the nazi problem was not as mainstream evident as it is now.

Yeah, but "88=Heil Hitler" was common knowledge; the ADL's had it as part of their web glossery of hate symbols for a long time. They can't really plead ignorance.

I tried to make that vault look cool but the building blocks they gave me all sucked so I built like half a hallway, some rooms, and did the quests. Then there was never a reason to ever return. I only knew which vault you guys were talking about because they said it was the vault building dlc, I didn't even remember it was/as vault 88.

Bethesda is one of few developers who openly oppose and mock the nazis while acknowledging that the current right wingers are straight up nazis so they get a pass.

I don't think they're cryptonazis, I think they were lazy and didn't bother to do even some cursory Google searches before settling on the number.

FO4 is the last one that isn't a multiplayer hellscape right? I guess I don't conceptually "get" why a series where a big part of the aesthetic was lonley vistas and a singular protagonist (lone wanderer so forth) decided multiplayer was the way to go?

Until reading this thread I had no idea 88 was associated with nazis to that degree. I've seen it in association in some places, but never knew outright that it was that connected and it's reasonable to assume lots of folks don't make that connection. Someone this sentiment above, but sometimes a number is just a number.
