So based on the few posts that I read in this thread, this game is a No-Go?

seeing how the majority of the ppl talking shit about this game haven't played it and are just reposting articles and videos talking shit about it I would pay attention to most the post in here. Seeing how they cut the price of the game already to around $35-40 if you're just trying to kill time the game isn't that bad. It has some bugged quest in it and sometimes it boots you off the server although I've only got booted x2 in 50-60 hours of gameplay. If your not into grindy games not counting destiny I'd wait until they patch it more.

I loved fallout 3 and New Vegas, and also really enjoyed fallout 4. I also have no problem with grindy games (elite dangerous player) but have no real desire to play this one.

The thing I loved about all of the fallout (and elder scrolls) games, were the weird and wacky characters you meet, and the interesting branching quests they give you. I don't need to watch all the negative youtube videos. It just feels depressing as a massive fan of the series, that they've released a game which excludes some of the key aspects that made the previous ones enjoyable to me.

I have not played it, but from what I can tell, most of the backlash is coming from people who were expecting "Fallout 5", and not a grindy multiplayer experience.

I'd suggest that if you love multiplayer games like this and know what to expect, give it a shot. If you're expecting some deep, immersive campaign driven experience, then skip it. Personally, I know I would hate it, because I find all multiplayer RPG's to be shallow experiences, which is why I'm not bothering with it. If you like those kinds of games though, it looks like it's at least worth a look.

What's worse? Bethesda with this garbage or Blizzard with Diablo Mobile? Choices...

There is no problem with Diablo mobile though. They're still working on and planning to release D4. The issue was Blizz ending their press conference with a mobile game, jebaiting the audience, and the guy on stage saying "Don't you all have smart phones," in a really condescending manner.

Nobody wants a Diablo mobile except for the real losers in society.

Also, as far as the Diablo franchise is concerned, D3 was a colossal let down. Luckily Path of Exile fills that void as it is a remarkable game and on Dec 4th they are releasing their biggest expansion yet.

Francis is going to have a stroke over Fallout 76. <45>

Sounds like you were really butthurt by the mobile announcement, lol.

I don't even play Diablo, so I didn't really care either way. There are a million Diablo clones on mobile, I'm sure this game will make a shit ton of money with it's micro transactions and shit. But yeah, the outrage wasn't due to it being a mobile game, but rather the jebaiting.

FO76 on the other hand just seems like a half-assed product, not to mention the Power Armor edition fiasco.

the comment about there being the same bugs in Fallout 76 as Fallout 4 was too funny

Butt hurt? It was comedy and not surprising with how lame Blizzard has becoming.

D3 - Let down
Overwatch - Fake ass competitive game with auto aim
HoS - Pussified LoL/DOTA clone
WoW - Pussified PVE game cash grab

I think it's perfectly normal to be critical of these companies and their cash grabs. Only partisan fanboys can call it butt hurt.

DK, sticky-status and retitled. Feel free to beef up OP and/or host discussion as you see fit.

I’m not surprised that it’s buggy AF, but I am surprised that there is no true single-player option. True, you can play by yourself and mostly avoid other players, but it’s not the same. I may be in the minority, but this is a deal-breaker for me in terms of buying this game (inb4 ForeverAlone.jpeg)

Glorified mod with microtransactions LMAO

Yeah, except you called consumers the "real losers of society," which is an incredibly stupid thing to say. There is obviously a market for the game, otherwise they wouldn't have put resources into it, no? If you're going to critique something, actually critique it. Don't hurl insults around like a 12 year old brat.

Funny enough, a lot of people actually like D3. There are even people that make a living off of playing the game on stream or making content on youtube. Sure, it ain't no D2... but then again, nothing really is. Even PoE has it's own niche in the genre.

I don't play OW often and if I do, it's quick matches. But it's enjoyable as an arcadey FPS to hop in for a few matches. I prefer TF2 though.

How is Heroes a pussified clone? It too has carved it's own niche, in that unlike LoL/DotA there isn't a time consuming and boring laning phase for 30 minutes. There are map objectives to fight around that actually impact the match outcome, merc camps that push lanes with your heroes, talent trees that you can use to adapt your play-style with depending on the draft as opposed to just picking meta items as they do in LoL/DotA. But let me guess, you've never actually played any of these games, huh?

WoW has certainly changed since it's hey-day. I have a lot of complaints about WoW, that's for sure... but complaining that it is a PVE game is really ridiculous. It's an MMO, literally 99% of the content is and always has been PVE. PVP wasn't even originally in the game, ffs.

So yes, you seem very butthurt. Your complaints so far--in our conversation--have no validity, you're basically stomping your foot and crying.

On the other hand, the greed with Activision/EA/Ubi and now--more heartbreaking than any of the others--Bethsoft, has become too real.

This shit smelt from first reveal. I couldn’t see how this could work. I was looking at what that cunt on the stage was saying and rolling my eyes. You can deal with the bugs but you can’t deal with using the Fallout 4 engine (liars), asset flipping F4 and basic design issues. Compare with Red Dead 2 which has issues with its economy and griefing - which will be solved, just like GTA Online is the best MMO game out there IMO.

And I Jesus fucking Christ hate reveal events with some fucker walking around with a microphone and people cheering like they’re hearing Obama/Trump/Clinton setting out their political goals at a rally. Put out a fucking trailer on YouTube and your website instead of talking utter lying BS. I believe a politician more than some cunt talking about they’re going to give you the freedom to do what you want.

WHY THE FUCK do people get invested in a game or iPad like it’s the future of their country? Fucking cheering at set points. People were cheering a lack of NPCs. You stupid fucks. And I know this because I watched Angry Joe and some clips beforehand and not some fucking propaganda piece.

It’s like a North Korean great leader event at game ‘reveal’ conferences. Leader paused and you cheer me clap. And then his next point about shooting your families. Pause, cheer and clap.

I’m not buying this shit even at $5.

Lol and you call me butthurt and a brat? You are exactly that because I'm pissing all over your beloved company.

You even needed to defend each game I listed, HAHA

I made money off of D3, I'm well aware of it and as I criticized this company earlier, the game lacked a lot and was a let down to the franchise. D1 and D2 were amazing, D3 was yet another dumbing down by Blizzard, pussyfying everything for average and below skill gamer fanboys like yourself.

I'm refuting the complaints you've made. There are actual complaints to be made, but "it's not good," or "it's pussified," are meaningless.

Pointing out that the claims you've made are baseless is being butthurt? That's not how it works, kid, sorry.
And sure, you can call me a fanboy. Except, I only semi-regularly play two Blizz games. HotS, which is F2P and actually a good game, and WoW. I already said I have a ton of complaints about WoW, but it being mostly PVE(lol, what a thing to cry about)is not one of them. In fact, I'm so bothered by the actual state of the game that I only low-level adventure for nostalgia's sake. But sure! I'm butthurt and you're not.

The hits just keep on coming hahhaha...



And my fave hot take on this fiasco.

I don't need to watch all the negative youtube videos. It just feels depressing as a massive fan of the series, that they've released a game which excludes some of the key aspects that made the previous ones enjoyable to me.

there's still wacky characters but they are all mr.handy type robots or computer terminal A.I. like John Henry Eden from FO3. You still get the quest in this game like the Order of Mysteries quest it's just handled through an A.I. computer system instead of a NPC but stuff gets explained through holodisk and notes. Or the Cold Case quest which is given to you by a Miss Nanny robot but just like in almost every other quest the "support NPCs" for the quests are just taken care of by holodisk and notes.

Your replies are very fast, guess I got you butthurt pretty good.
