    -----------------------------------------------------------------
    Fallout 76 is a 2018 action role-playing video game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. It is an installment in the Fallout series and a prequel to previous entries. Set in the year 2102, players control a resident of Vault 76 who must venture out into the dilapidated open world known as "Appalachia" in order to re-colonize the region, and uncover a mysterious plague that has killed off its inhabitants. Fallout 76 is Bethesda Game Studios' first multiplayer game; Bethesda developed the game using a modified version of its Creation Engine, which allowed the accommodation of multiplayer gameplay and a more detailed game world than in previous games.
    Fallout 76 was released to generally mixed reviews, with criticism for the game's numerous technical issues, overall design, lack of gameplay purpose, and initial absence of human non-playable characters. The game was the subject of several controversies, chiefly with regard to the quality of physical content. A number of Bethesda's responses and attempts to provide ongoing support for Fallout 76 in the months following its launch were met with criticism. The game sold 1.4 million copies by the end of 2018. In October 2019, a premium subscription service called Fallout 1st was added to the game. The first major update to the game, Wastelanders, which reintroduces non-playable characters, was released in April 2020.

      If you suffer from motion sickness, play in third person. It really makes a difference .
      I won't address any of your opinions. I've been playing the game since the launch/ beginning and I dumped Fallout 4 for it. It was liberating not to have console commands and learn how to get good enough. Nowadays I play with 2 different accounts at the same time on PC (Steam, different machines, different accounts), cause I have a specific niche inside the niche. You do you. I'm happy doing what I do.

By the time FO5 drops, there could potentially be people doing their taxes who weren't alive for the FO4 release. As good as the show was, I hope there are more game releases before FO5 comes around. Something between then and now has to happen and I hope it isn't just this show or FO76.

      Bro explained from 6:00 to 6:30 why that's irrelevant. The game lacks many of the tools and MMO uses to make raids and multiplayer interesting in an MMO, to the point its just cooperative Fallout, except if YOU tried playing the cooperatively, it odnes't function because Bethesda gave up on the MMO ide and just made it a singleplayer server.
      Although I do agree, this is a clickbait video and Luke is quite clearly phoning this shit in. Seriously all of them are nearly 22-23 minutes on the dot.
      Doens't change his point that 76 is a game with an identity crisis that is saddled with the lode stone around its neck of always online multiplayer that can't effectively use its medium to fulfill that promise.

    I can't bring myself to play it. It's flabbergasting that it's a game not made in the early 2000s because everything is so clunky and ugly and shitty-feeling. The gunplay is atrocious and the hit registration is even worse. The quest design is bottom-of-the-barrel-tier and some quests don't even work properly or are so buggy they're nearly impossible to complete. I tried to give it a chance, but I'd rather just play New Vegas over and over.

    I played it and enjoyed the beginning levels because of the survival challenge, but got seriously annoyed that every enemy was a bullet sponge and the laggy shooting mechanics. Eventually I got better weapons to not make every enemy absorb ammo
 and they released an update that increased all the enemy levels with your character level and I gave up.

    You mentioned slight delays, nausea, and difficulty playing some games because of it - and I remember having the same problem with Monster Hunter Rise, Cyberpunk, and a few other games

    Turned out it was my streaming/capture setup combined with my monitor’s configuration generating just enough delay that it seemed just a little bit off.
    When I hooked the system up to a TV, or directly to a different monitor everything played a lot better - so I had to reconfigure my entire setup to reduce or correct the delay.
    It was probably a few years of putting off games, or thinking some games were not for me - until I was playing them at a convention and wondering why it was so much better of an experience.
    With Fallout 76, I had to start using VATS to be more of an auto-aim system with my controller
 carefully aiming was not feeling right and slowed things down too much. I’m running through Fallout 76 and enjoying it, but your video made me realize it was because of the Fallout 1st benefits. I probably wouldn’t be enjoying it without it.

    one thing ill say is there are loading screens its a bethesda game but what is cool is if you used the photo mode or in game camera item to take pictures it will cycle through those for your loading screens incentivizing you to use it to show off memories and things that have happened during your time in the wasteland which is to me very cool. but im biased im a veteran player and i do love the game itself. apocalyptic animal crossing. the monetization is too extreme but you do keep everything if you cancel fallout first. like the scrab box and if you've placed a survival tent it stays where you left it.

    Also inspired by the show, I finally decided to try out 76 on my Series X the other day. Encountered 3 game-breaking bugs and a hard crash in the first twenty minutes of playing. Kept trying for another half hour or so before giving up. With no overarching story to pursue, I couldn’t care about any of the random radiant fetch quests the various NPC’s started throwing at me.

I almost think they did in fact know and Wastelanders was something they were working on from the beginning given all the NPCs, quest and voiced dialog that added, probably wasn't ready to meet release. Either way the launch was a pure disaster, Wastelanders saved it and the content updates keep me coming back, looking forward to Skyline Valley map expansion update in June, seems like the biggest update since Wastelanders.

    The "car sickness" nausea is caused by your eyes and hands feeling/seeing different things, and the two signals collide in the brain ... badly. Lag - especially a laggy response to motion input like strafing, jumping, shooting, etc. - gives me instant nausea / vertigo. I recently noticed this when I tried to return to The Division 2 on my old XB1X a few weeks ago. There's a NOTICEABLE lag between moving or pulling the trigger and the screen responding to that input. Can't do it. I think Destiny was the first FPS that I've never had any motion sickness issues with - it's super-responsive in that way.

    On gta+ you pay the same ammount as you would for their cheapest shark card, the one that gives you 250.000 something you can make in game in less than 2 seconds. But added on you get 500k (1.5 for the next few months) you MIGHT get a car for free, a business for free.. There a a bunch of the in game services become free, you may get 4x insted of 2x on certain weekends.. You get an Exlusive garage and you get other and better discounts in general.. All this definitely bonuses but nothing you can't get in a fair ammount of time by just playing the game if you want. It's entirely optional.
    Fallout1s basicly give you discounts on stuff you have to buy with more real money.. All those discounts mentioned in the gta part are in game currency that is very easy to make by just playing the game.. With 1st you pay real money, to pay more real money which is just ridiculous.. Also that most of the great crafting stuff has to be bought is just scummy

    1. In my personal experience, the family and friends of victims I have known have always rallied around them and they have gone on to lead healthy lives - calling quits on life is not the only option - regret and shame are manageable emotions
    2. The police can help - see for example the case of Yannick Glaudin - a woman who was prosecuted for gaslighting and stalking and extorting British men online who also pretended to be a gay man on Grindr to hunt victims. This is a crime and offenders can be prosecuted.

    If most of the Fallout 1st stuff was free, or like a 1 time purchase it would be enjoyable. But the very limited inventory is so annoying especially since there aren't any companions to take some of the load off so you can deposit or sell. The perk cards are cool, but if you want to build something it takes 50+ levels just to potentially have the right cards (I really wish there was an in game preview of all the card perks available). I like the weapon repair system, but its limited by the storage/weight limits. So many things in F76 are like that, cool concepts that would work if it wasn't choked by dumb unnecessary limitations.
