Been playing on & off since the B.E.T.A. days, so my Steam playtime's a bit off. Nothing too crazy but probably a couple hundred off from quad-digit hours.

Maybe I just got lucky, but this game really isn't as buggy as people say it is, not even back in 2018. Very rocky physical launch for collectors though.

Never saw anything wrong with this game apart from builds constantly changing with every major update, which throws a wrench into everyone's plans when they think they've got their loadout all figured out after days if not weeks of grinding. On the bright side, as of writing this review, any loadout is viable, and min-maxing has been contained to diehard veterans crunching numbers out the ass to farm things that shouldn't even be farmed solo.

From the very beginning, this game is basically what was being advertised on the tin in 2018 during E3: Constant never-ending looting & shooting, which can be enjoyed either solo or in a party. No idea what other Fallout fans were expecting, but this game was not received with very high praise from fans of previous installments, all of which play differently from each other. Regardless, I personally appreciate most of them.

This is essentially a version of Fallout 4 that improves on everything, but for people with no attention span that demand constant mayhem and teamwork for the sake of getting into a mosh-pit filled with legendary drops and XP.

Unfortunately, this also means the game runs like ass, but if you can deal with Bethesda's traditional jank, it's probably no surprise.

It's stupid fun if you don't take the franchise too seriously and you're just looking for braindead action & progression, but be warned that the end-game can get tedious, as Fallout 1st is basically a must, since the stash limit basically acts as a soft paywall waaaaaay later into the game.

Great community too, it's honestly surprising seeing the game chug along after 7 years. Fallout 76 is damn close to No Man Sky's redemption arc if not for the shoddy engine and performance.

get geeked up and play this ♥♥♥♥ all day.
