We hope you've enjoyed our two docs on the past, present and future of Bethesda Game Studios. We have a half dozen smaller videos on everything from the design of Fallout Shelter, to The Dark Brotherhood and more. Make sure to sub to get all these docs for free too. Again, a massive thanks to our Patrons for funding this work, and to you for watching. It's been incredibly humbling to see so many of you care about our work. We think we're at the start of an exciting new adventure for games coverage and are delighted to have you along for the ride. The best is yet to come. Thank you all.
please...more bethesda vids, they were super interesting to watch, keep up the great work guys!!
Nice documentary.
The game still sounds atrocious though.
yea..we get it, you don't like this game..we heard you the first time in like 60% of the comments...move on and get over it.
Noclip thanks
one of the urban legends they need to add is the legend about the river monster sorry I couldn't find the name the other one should be the white thing or and the sheepsquach
"We wanted you to hear distant gunfire and know it's another player"
"yeah so the ghouls have guns now"
Yeah, the Scorched really put a dampener on their logic here xD
Raiders would attack NPCs too.
But with this, you'd know it's players fighting the Ghouls.
Yeah... I mean you know if people are around because you can see them on the map right? I have however seen that in the pip-boy, there is no map option? The map they showed looked like a physical flyer in-game like the perk-chart in fallout 4. Maybe you can acces the map via the settlement system... build it or something like that?
22:01 See.. No map
22:01 Also! radio stations!
I live in West Virginia (between Grafton and Morgantown) and I don't think Bethesda realized how excited the people here would be about being the center point of a large video game franchise. Bars are having launch parties, its been all over the news, and I've even seen multiple people saying that they are going out to buy a console just so they can play this game.
MyFatCatPumpkin I mean shit, do y’all have internet?
I hope you have some seriously high speed internet. Online-only games are awful.
J. C. That's not true. Destiny, ESO, FFARR all run really good for me and my internet is shit.
MyFatCatPumpkin - I live close to Boston and Fallout 4"s map blew me away sometimes when I was exploring. The Salem Witch museum looked exactly like the real world version just scaled down.
That would be awesome! Imagine finding your neighbourhood?! 😂
Can we get a redone documentary on, you know....what the hell happened?
Noclip will never say anything bad in their documentaries mostly because they want to be able to do more documentaries in the future go back to all of their videos and see anything bad against the company any company that they're working with you will not because they are working with them and they want to work with them in the future it's so if they say something bad about them then they won't work with them in the future so they don't say anything bad about them and they only say good things about the games in the documentaries and how the games are made and all the good things and the good press about the games you will never hear all of the bugs and microtransactions and issues within the games from a noclip documentary
It would be fascinating to have them return for a followup. Maybe after the big wastelanders update that's supposed to add a whole new main quest and NPCs hits. I've had fun with 76 but there's no denying there's a lot of problems with it. Giving the team at Bethesda a chance to explain it all might not be the best idea *right now,* but depending on how confident they are with that overhaul, who knows.
@@umadbroimatroll7918 It's the cleverest decision. That's why when the post-mortem on what went wrong with this game will inevitably happen - it'll be most likely be on NoClip. They've been trying to maintain excellent relationships with more-or-less everyone. Bad-mouthing just for clickbait, in the end gets you nowhere in life. A general life lesson most people learn sooner or later.
@@yinoveryang4246 here is the thing no clip will not be the one to make that documentary. They are so focussed on pleasing their corporate overlords that they will never talk bad about a game you will never hear about anything bad in a game from a no clip documentary. The thing is that doesn't make it a bad documentary noclip has to keep good relations with all of their business partners so that they are able to get information that other games journalists are not able to get. That's the main reason no clip has the style of documentaries instead of game reviews and game journalism because companies allow them to come into their Studios to give interviews and to look at the unfinished games because they will not say anything bad about them unlike other games journalist and games reviewers.
@@umadbroimatroll7918 Even when Studios have gone bust, or fallen out with each other (like Id or Telltale), they try to keep all parties happy. (Although they made one or two quite gentle assertions with Telltale actually).
Who knows who's responsible anyway ? To jump to conclusions about where the mistakes were made, and who was responsible is deeply unfair. Because no-one, apart from the people working in these studios, actually knows who made those decisions. Although people like Todd Howard, who is clearly a creative man with ideas, not a money-man necessarily, gets lambasted. But who actually knows what pressures he was under? He's the only face, the face of that studio, and therefore gets attacks that are sometimes personal - and that's not an easy place to be. But there's only going to be one way to find out isn't there ... and that's to have a good relationship with people. With everyone.
Their positive relationship with studios like CDPR, will stand them in good stead. They can also most probably be trusted with confidentialities, and I imagine they're contractually bound to keep confidentialities also. They're trusted because they seem to care about journalistic standards - meaning accuracy.
This video is like watching a serial killer before they committed their crimes, however it is a very well-made documentary.
Lmfaoooooo
Well NoClip interviewed Zoey Quinn, who killed Holowka.
At least it has npcs now.
Is this game actually a Vault-Tec social experiment??
160rpm its an experiment to see how people work together in a new world
Yes.
No.
Maybe.
Please report which of my answers is a lie to your overseer.

"And you know me, turning F4 into an MP"
5:45 This explains so much of what happened (bugs) with fallout 76. They took something that was designed for one player and tried to shortcut making it a multiplayer game. It explains why there were bugs from Fallout 4 still in fallout 76 and why there are a lot of issues. It makes me wonder how much harder it would have been to start from scratch and steal little bits and pieces of code from Fallout 4 as opposed to trying this "shortcut" of forcing a single player game into multi player.
They should have just made the game completely in the Id Tech engine instead. But they are stubborn bastards that insist to keep using their shitty engine which was already way outdated by the time Fallout 4 came out.
@@malbeth8700 They keep using it for the easy modability. They rely on fans to fix their bugs and create new content. id Tech is completely different.
Additional sales for their released games come through people buying them to mod the shit out of them and offer new things for years later.
@@malbeth8700 then it would lose the fallout essence; the feel and distinct way the game systems play would be lost... and the fallout charm alongside it.
@@malbeth8700 I also think like you, but now I'm more and more conviced that Bethesda should stick with their Creation angine.
@@lunacystudy2470 I don't know the term Technical Debt, but does it describe the situation that they already spent so much time, money and resources into their own engine, and are very familiar with it, that switching to a different one like Unreal would not be worth it?
as a West Virginian, this is like the only game that takes place in my home state. Playing the game and to be able to go to Cities that I have actually been to myself and actually see often is the coolest thing
I don't think Tom Howard has aged in the many years I've been watching his announcements. I think he's a synth.

You fool
watching this in hindsight leaves a really really bad taste in your mouth lmao
RIP Bethesda.

RIP your ability to think for yourself. Bandwagon's can be fun but they can also leave you with all the wrong information.
@@Gibblets411 Just because you like it doesn't mean others do.
nah, tehy forgot to upload the doc about bugs, still, i love it
When Todd Howard said it's a multiplayer game, I knew it will suck.
I don't understand why people thumbs down a documentary because they didn't like the events covered.. because this is an excellent documentary, from content to presentation.. thumbing down this video has no effect on bethesda, at all, it only affects to two people who are "no clip".. don't shoot the messenger
It was a learning opportunity for them and they've reflected and have said they aren't doing anything quite like this again because they don't feel super proud of it
@@Aaron-is8yt nice wishful thinking but online games are here to stay.
@@juve3030 he was on about no clip not doing a doc like this again...
It's a terrible documentary, like a propaganda film
@@duanecameronson You know this was filmed before the final product right? The documentary is just sharing the view of the developers abt the game
I must say, this intro was REALLY good

Thanks for this

thats what im saying
You're welcome. I know you'll love my game
Todd Howard For Real 😂
Good stuff
I especially like the part where Todd says he doesn't want the game to be boring.
Anyone else watching this post-launch with a bemused look on your face?
LMFAO yeah. I've been having fun with friends and kinda alone but the Uber lonely feeling missing the NPCs hurts solo. Nothing personal which sucks. Fallout felt lonely enough so that burst of euphoria and happiness when you found non hostile humans was amazing and added to the charm of camps and cities. Lore wise there shouldn't be any I guess but I wish they added them but made raider types just rare as fuck since there's so few what if another very large vault opened but they were bad guys. And NPCs for quest I get that wouldn't make since but could've also just made up some outside vaults that opened and people spreadyl out. Even if they were few and far between humans giving wuest would've felt better.
Todd lied again... i became numb to it honestly.
@@rikuhachima_Ar Theres a difference between not meeting every ones, maybe even their own expectations of "fun" and lying.
@@ajankytoucan Bold faced lies... straight lies, check it up.
@@rikuhachima_Ar Only lies I've seen are the majority of shit people are spewing about the game.
5 months ago when this Documentary was released, I watched it a couple of times. When I finally played the beta it was exactly what I expected and wanted, zero regrets paying full price, even after that sale.
7:54 discord message sound.
damn it I was wondering where the hell did that notification come from since discord only shows you something for pings but not notifications (when you enable notifications for all messages on a channel for instance)
and fast clicking
I'm glad i'm not the only one that noticed that..
At first i was like wtf discord is muted...
God what id give to be able to walk around Bethesda studios and hear all there story's. There just so passionate & have so much history it's just so interesting
ScotchGaming. Their
The Drifter Why correct him or her when you know exactly what they mean ? Don't be a stereotype 😓
This is so sad!
Despacito, play Country Roads
Lol you wouldn’t be able to without disconnecting from the office
I am convinced NoClip's crew has actually moved into the Bethesda studios, and are living on a diet of sweet rolls, Nuke Cola and Skyrim VR as exercise.
I don't mind though, the documentaries are great. Sacrifices were made.
I wouldn't mind subsiding off that Diet.
They had to fight for their sweetrolls because butch tried to take it
But fortunately Nate had the Coffee and Donuts DLC from the creation club
Let me guess. They stole my sweetrolls.
a cringey minecraft player yes. Yes they did.
[Muffled Fleetwood Mac playing in the distance]
Most perfect comment 🤣
This aged poorly.
Not if you've actually played the game. This video perfectly explains Fallout 76, what it is, why they did it. It's a great game if you're not expecting Fallout 5.
Basically have expectations so low that they burrow down to the core of the earth and then you will enjoy it until it deletes itself accidentally.
@@Gibblets411 'it's a great game'
lmao
Bro, I was literally thinking the exact same comment. And you stole it, Bryson. HAHA.
They're all so happy talking about this trash heap dumpster fire. So cute. They should be ashamed of themselves.
@@titanicww2345 HAHAHAHA!! Pretty much sums it up.
Danny, Bethesda’s marketing team should be immensely grateful for the work you’ve done here. This candid BTS material was exactly what I needed to get excited for Fallout 76, I hope the same can be said for many more concerned Fallout fans. Keep doing what you do, you’re the bloody best at it!
Andy Harrison Nope. Still sounds like shit.
No meaningful story or interesting characters? *EASY* pass 😂😂😂
Yeah, this video helped clarify for me that I don't want the game. It was very helpful.
Microtransactions were the final nail in the coffin for me. I could deal with the 100% online, no singleplayer, no human npcs, and other things but as soon as they said there will be microtransactions for a game people are already paying full fucking price for I ejected. I used to be a huge Fallout fan but Bethesda is completely screwing this up and I hope it tanks massively.
I'll probably watch some Autist go through all the areas and give me a detailed explanation (like a tv show), but not worth dropping money on.

You're one of them special folks aren't you?
After E3 i was worried about Fallout 76, it really wasn't a direction I wanted Fallout to go in, but having watched this video i am super hyped about it, lot's of interesting mechanics and the world design looks epic
I’m hyped too! I can already imagine trading someone some 5.56 for some gauss rifle ammo then blowing them up right after lol. Really made me wonder what’s at greenbrier tho. Maybe a stash of T-51s or some high end weapons
Loki Doki I mean this is Fallout. I knew this game was gonna be awesome from the start
"looks epic" looks
nice try Todd, but creating a fake account to hype your game doesn't change the fact it suckz :P
Александр Потоцкий
Nah, the game is looking really good. Probably the best Fallout yet.
"We didn't want raiders because they'd have guns and players wouldn't know if it was an NPC or a player shooting. So we put in ghouls with guns instead. Also there's Super Mutants, and they have guns too."
@@balloonfiesta15 Thats what I was thinking too!
@@balloonfiesta15 EFT did exactly that and it worked out really well
I kinda see the logic there. Like, if a Ghoul or Supermutant is shooting at you, you can tell it's not a Human and therefore not a person.
76 is bad and BGS is pulling some shady crap with atoms,leaking customer info and the like. But I still liked the video and appreciate the time that went into making it. Keep on on making great docs, even if the games are duds.
Comment
Pow Smack BLAM they liked
Omg they liked this comment lmao
7:54 well, someone got a discord message :P
That's what that freaking noise I get sometime on my computer is lol! Thanks
Haha just went through a load of nonsense to try to figure out how to link a video to a certain time, but it was the full shorthand link instead of just the timestamp... How do you do that?
William Bruce you literally just have to type the time in text :P it automatically links to that part in the video.
I heard it and checked my discord at the beginning lol.
Came here for this. Was not disappointed.
Feel so much better about Fallout 76 after watching this
Sam Johnson never doubt god himself
Brandon Aguirre All praise the mighty and benevolent Godd
Todd be with you
I mostly agree, but I'm a little cautious of the multiplayer getting in the way of the story elements
Just came back here to see the comments after that disaster launch they did with the game :b
This is like watching a documentary explaining why FO76 failed.
Everything the dude in the gray Mothman shirt says probably sounded positive at the time, but now it's like every word he says makes me think he was secretly shitting on the game.
Honestly the idea wasn’t bad just they had a poor execution and couldn’t get it to run good which is why it’s crap same with the story in some locations they lack interest so honestly this isn’t a Bethesda game it’s a mess
They had the Star Wars Galaxies guys attached and then it made sense. Galaxies is a true sandbox where the player is given a few tools and they make their own adventures, towns and journeys. Theres a few npc but the players make the economy, gear etc Whereas say The Old Republic that replaced it is a curated experience. Like a BGS game vs a Bioware one. Say Skyrim vs a Dragon Age affair. In time 76 will be popular to a niche audience as Galaxies has become, unfortunately Galaxies is now entirely fan supported and has waaayy more bugs and glitches, but its forgiven. I disagree with the missteps in the monetisation, but tbh after the Worlds update, the subscription model is a good way to go. Groups can play together in their own space curated by the Game master of sort. When it's ironed out a bit, the host can add different conditions to the session like double XP and such, spitballing here but you get what I mean? The group's structures and factions are more persistent for them. One week the Host can add a hellish Radstorm to the area and tweak up the difficulty. The players have to take shelter more often and theres greater risk vs reward. In the aftermath farms gain greater yield, but the enemies retain their difficulty etc. The person who does pay the subscription who's invested can have a toolkit they can play about with and get creative to set the tone and then watch as the gameplay emerges. One guy wants to be the camp provisioner who cooks and makes stew and guns. One woman wants to be the Doctor with a chem habit. A couple want to hit mines for loot. Maybe the head of the group is the server guy and creates a Walking Dead type heirarchy, or Maybe they play as a hermit? Or the group joins the settlers and the host the Raiders orrr...lThey all can on their server. You know roleplayers...
What I've gotten from this video, feel free to add on:
-Ghouls called the "Scorched" to replace raiders
-2 headed possums and irradiated hostile plants
-63 "things" (enemies?) And more?
-6 regions of the map with own flavor and difficulty
-Crashed space station
-Paper Maché masks (10)
-Public workshops to claim
-There is ore, lead, For example, can make bullets
"C.A.M.P has restrictions, "so you don't camp outside the vault and grief"
-Crafting system retained "and more"
-Eating and drinking is apparently a necessity like FO4 Survival Mode, you can "starve".
-Diseases
-"Mutations", no inverse rad health bar (I believe) the more rads you have the more likely you are to be "mutated": "Like 'Traits' from FO1+2 Where they have pluses and minuses" (Curable, along with ways to permanently get them for ones you really like). Mostly gameplay, some are visual.
-Weapon condition from FO3 is back so you're never "comfortable"
-Bartering between players (like trade)
-"Perk cards" with a limited amount and re-rolls, you can also share perk cards with your party allowing "specialists" in your group. Also in the end give you plus and minuses
-POSSIBILITY of setting up a robot vendor
-"Wanted" level for highly aggressive players
-24-32 people in the map (you can see where they are)
-Possible team deathmatch
-Cosmetic microtransactions (still able to earn through gameplay)
-Free updates "for years to come"
It sounds like the players actions has an effect on the ecosystem
Thanks for giving this(I’m gonna copy it and send it to friends too and people who dislike the game lol)
All sounds pretty cool to me honestly
So it's DayZ? And Rust? "intelligent" choices there BethesdEA.
Derp Derp pretty much a clone! I they left the Npc's then it would'v been it's own thing.
I was originally very dismissive when i heard that the game was Online only....but after seeing this documentary i feel a little bit more confident in it and i might genuinely purchase it in the future
You are the reason why we don't get Starfield and TESVI sooner because they put their all efforts in this crap game.
basshead haha wait boi
basshead bye see you in 5 years
I agree, I was really annoyed, but I'm willing to give it a chance, seems that it might be fun if you have friends
+Rick Sanchez You are not a real fan if you like this multiplayer survival shooter.
Darn. Todd seems like a really nice person here. I would relay like him to tell the real story of Fallout 76 some day and show us what went so wrong with it's launch. I am glad the game is better now in 2023, and people are enjoying it, but that launch... It's puzzling. This documentary doesn't solve this puzzle.
One thing I know is Todd is happy to try and fail, rather than sit and do boring things. And I can respect that. But the way they handled their fan base was unimaginably bad, and I can't get behind that stuff.
Big kudos to Noclip team for making this amazing documentary of the game that is not even out yet.
I couldn't wipe the grin off my face after I heard about the mutations (:
You've somehow gotten me even more excited for this game than I already was. Excellent work.
Lore friendly traits is something I hope they carry on into the future :)
I'm hoping that somehow we could look like a Ghoul. I mean like, they said that some of the traits are for cosmetics right?I'm so excited to see these mutations further more
hmm maybe we can finally become ghouls?
The game just sounds so good
I want a third eye
I really hope you do this kind of documentary for Cyberpunk 2077!
Lol. That game is never coming out. I wish it would, but it doesn't look like it's going to happen.
J. C. U realize they showed 50 minutes of gameplay right?
FIFTY MINUTES
J. C. Oh well do we have a surprise for you my friend.
Agreed
Lucas Olivieri That gameplay was behind closed doors, and only for PR people
On one hand, they really seem to want to make a good game and its good they want to take risks.
However, even though they did do their research on the area and building areas, the interview suggests their approach to designing mechanics seems plain chaotic and unfocused. Its weird how much they seem focused on busywork and a type of tourism approach to the exploration. The worldbuilding and gameplay style that made the IP famous, the one made by Black Isle studios and Obsidian, were diametrically opposed to this. Then I hear them say "it still feel like Fallout", I can't help but ask "what are you talking about? Do you even understand the core pillars of this franchise" ?
Have Bethesda games ever been a focused experience though? They’ve always been chaos
“So Lonely” basically summed up the entire experience haha
@ 25:16 When I saw that guy walking in the background, I swear I thought that guy had a health bar above his head. lol
This is outstanding work once again, really enjoy watching these!
Triple M \m/
100% agree.
Honestly, I had no idea who Danny O'Dwyer nor Noclip was prior to these two videos. But... damn, this is good stuff. This will be my next YT binge. Really looking forward to watching the CD Projekt Red doc.
Nice buff piece for Bethesda, paid by the Patreon supporters.
No questioning why they ignore all the game breaking bugs in every game they make?
I still have to rely on mod patches to finish Skyrim ffs.
Watching that after release is interesting. We can clearly see how passionate they are with their products, it's just a shame some decisions were badly took (no human npcs is a big one) and someone there is pushing the games faster than they should. This game needed an extra year of development and more care on the lore.
I'm trying to look things differently, and the good news is that as this game seems empty and boring, the team responsible for quests, npcs and such must be working hard on the next games!
Have you played it recently? I was out of the country and away from video games when it came out. I didn’t pick up the game until this year, and I see how a lot of the things they talk about played out.
Todd Howard wants to see how players play the game, he's Vault-Tec!
All makes sense now :O
Atlas sounds like a great concept for a future Fallout villain.
Wonka Bars He already is, he's the one who makes the game crash xD
Wonka Bars you have to be close to him or you crash?
I was thinking of him being some sort of powerful foe that has the ability to create a cataclysmic event that would wipe out the rest of surviving humanity. Sort of like a Dr. Manhattan-type of being who is made out of radioactive matter.
38:11 Omg that "John Bain" on the patreon credits list. RIP TotalBiscuit, you badass nerd you.
5chr4pn3ll rest in peace TotalBiscuit
he had a cool name "John Bain" it sounds like an action movie character or something.
I'm devastated that he couldn't live long enough to see all of these amazing reveals during E3. Rest in Peace John, you will be missed.
5chr4pn3ll I miss him. I want him back! 😢
0o I Died In A Time Machine o0 It really does😂
"Expectiation Management is important" xDDDDD
Dont worry, nobody expects anything from you anymore
You're not very bright.
I've never played 76, but I think it's telling that in this doc they always discussed multiplayer in the context of "bumping into people" while going on a solo adventure. Back when I played MMOs like WoW and FF14, I certainly did a lot of bumping into people, but my most fond memories are when I had a specific group of friends in mind that I wanted to group up with.
Totally biased here, because i am a huge Fallout Fan, but this documentary was probably the most important piece of media produced in the context of this years E3. Bethesda had fans worried, but with all this amazing insights into what's to come, many fans are back on the hype train. Amazing work!
batzeseestheworld I wish they promoted it after the showcase... or at least share it on their social media. It would make so many people feel much more confident.
How cult-like of you. "Bethesda shat the bed, but you reaffirmed the faith of sycophants by being PR instead of journalists. Amazing work!"
batzeseestheworld
No, not at all. A lot of questionable stuff is being said here, lots of conflicting stuff.
I wouldn't care about it if I had any reassurance that Bethesda is still interested in creating actual RPGs but after spending 7 years on games that aren't RPGs there is no way that that won't affect their design ethos.
at first i was on the fence. now im trying to kill the hype. fuck virginia roads i want a good fallout ive waited 10 god damn years.
"We don't want raiders because we don't want players to question if gunfire is other players or not."
"New faction of ghouls known as the Scorched who still know how to use guns."
🤔
Draz You'll probably hear the ghoul noises
Plus I’m pretty sure nobody is playing as a ghoul so you’re easily able to tell smh
Draz you mean you can’t tell the difference between a ghouls and a raider?
I can
The ghoul is the one that looks like a god damn melted zombie.
Make sense yet?
The whole point was they wanted GUNFIRE to tell you there were human players. Yet, ghouls will have GUNS. As far as I know, the sound a gun makes doesn't change just because the person who pulled the trigger is full of radiation.
Also, the fact that PLAYERS ARE SHOWN ON THE MAP, makes the argument ridiculous as well. This is just their justification for not having any friendly groups/factions to interact with. This game will have no real quests. Just simplistic MMO style quests, even though it is just an -MO.
Derek the half a bee the moment the word mmo caught my eye I knew you didn’t have a clue what you were saying lmao

Gibblets To use your own words against you, you clearly never played ESO and are just complaining. You expect ESO to be elder scrolls 6 when it is its own separate thing to tide fans over until elder scrolls 6.
First off, much love to everyone at Noclip for all of these excellently crafted documentaries. You are doing and have been doing amazing work.
The saddest part of Fallout 76 to me, based on this documentary, the History of Bethesda documentary, and every other interview or piece of information I've read about them, is this: the people who work on these games seriously care and are passionate about what they are doing, with such palpable belief in what they want to achieve....and yet this game launched in such an utterly abysmal way, and still to this day, nearly 4 years later, the game is still not healthy or vibrant. I see exactly where they were going with the game and what they wanted achieve. And while I'm not particularly keen on the way some things were executed, on a fundamental level, I think there is some semblance of a pretty good game in there; I love the map. And I say this as a devout New Vegas acolyte.
It's just a shame that all their work went into making the game, so much of their time and humanity, only for it to kind of become a mixed bag of emotions that has tainted their customer-base's perception of them. I feel for them, honestly. Those two years post Fallout 76s launch, were not particuarly kind to them in the public forum. And while a lot of things went down, during that time, that are absolutely not excusable and deserve the scorn they recieved, Fallout 1st along with the CE cheap bag fiasco, I still feel it must have been really hard on some of the devs to see that game launch and it be recieved so harshly.
You forgot one more conclude: Todd and the managements are scammy pathological liars.
Well said, and now with starfield's release I don't think Bethesda can continue to roll with the engine theyve been using all these years either because it doesn't offer much in terms of stable gameplay. At this point they might as well just give us the framework with all the content and let the community develop the storyline. Honestly the story is just a vessel for the engine.
This was very cool, i'm actually more excited for Fallout 76 after this.
Patterrz yeah we all. Expect for those who got a regular console. It will blow up my ps4
I absolutely agree with your opinion on Fallout 76, i'm become very excited for this new Fallout for it's multiplayer, enemies, stories, and so much more that I could say right now cannot wait for this game to come out in 05 months I wish luck upon those who are looking forward to this Fallout 👍
Personally, I’m cautious (I won’t be pre-ordering) but I’m still hopeful. This has a lot of potential.
I'll likely be waiting until they have private servers and mods in the game. There should be plenty of reviews and gameplay videos by then to help me decide whether i want to buy or not.
Same here. Just hoping they incorporate private games at some point.
I wish players could not see each others location on the maps unless in a party.
I wish there were no other players.
It won't be permanent. Its just a temporary Vault-Tec experiment to see how we collide and when the nuclear dust clears from our wars, what's left afterwards. This war, this war requires changes...gotta go to war first. Its all in the sake of fun.
Totally agree with you, there will be no element of surprise when you're able to see where other players are, at all times. I really don't like this detail, but it might just work.
Yes. this is a strange decision. If you want to be a raider, it gonna be hard to ambush caravan if you can be seen on the map.
there should be a "GPS" option on your pip boy that you can turn on and off that'll let you appear on and off the map
I feel bad for Noclip getting caught up in this con job
Well, how could they know it was going to be a dumpster fire
@Dennis Rue No one knew except Bethesda. If anyone had doubts, they probably weren't ad bad as that. Bethesda probably knew how to hide their failures well enough from the camera crew or something
Who gets upset over a video game? I mean really.
@@colin-campbell People who dont have 70 year old names like "Colin" haha. Fuck off old man, maybe go to lawn bowls or something, listen to the radio
@@colin-campbell people who are passionate and still have souls
fast forward to November 2018, people hate this game lol
Only the people who didn't give it a chance.
Really enjoying this game atm
Well, after all there are people who genuinely think Amy Schumer is funny and Twilight is the best triology ever made.
@@Gibblets411 i played the game for a few hours. It's dogshit. Every Early Access Game has less bugs
@@Gibblets411 We give Bethesda many chances since Oblivion and they never learned any shit.
“There’s no private map” mod challenge accepted
Justin Watson no mods allowed, but if you find a way to mod-port this whole game over to Fallout 4 so we can single-player it, please let me know.
Justin Watson why tho
Both mods and private servers are already confirmed though.. yall trippin'
lol ya, i am sure creation club mods are on there way! who's excited X_X
0_o lol how many free mods do you think will be on a online only game....... and look at the amount of mods on the nexus vs the creation club.... outsourced dlc o ya! paying for weapon skins and three new guns I can't wait! X_X
7:54 theres the discord notification sound lol
Dudes fallout new vegas modding server pinged him
i got so confused for a minute until i went back and heard it again.
*WHO PINGED*
I heard it exactly as I read that
I bet it was a @everyone
I spent a good while checking my PC for the source of the notification. Turns out it was just the video.
This is a great hindsight documentary. How good intentions by decent people get distorted by money counters. Not to mention that skeleton at the beginning of the video....foreshadowing at its finest. Reading the post release comments shows how a lot of people don't get it. Its not an ad, its a document showing the making of a disaster....without knowing its going to be a disaster. I hope you keep doing stuff like this.
They should add in toothpaste, and if you brush your teeth you get a trait called "minty fresh" and for like the rest of the day you have increased charisma
if only i could apply that to real life i would be able to convince my parents that i'm not a disappointment
This is what a publishing company NEEDS to do. Look at these iconic developing companies coming together to merge their legendary codes into one! SHIT IS AWESOME!!!
Josh Plays! Exactly bro, I would just lick the floor at Bethesda just to meet the amazing team that made this game!
agreed, however it'd be better if Bethesda went ahead and borrowed the Idtech Engine and did away with Gamebryo, all their games would instantly improve after that lol better lighting, worlds look better, it seemed to handle a RPG lyte and hardcore shooting and driving no prob, lighting, character models & all that looked good and I think on a larger scale no vehicles they could totally do Fallout or TES in that engine without all the frakkups Gamebryo brings; eh, no matter the engine though there's always strengths and weaknesses but I think Idtech has more strengths....
>Fallout Seventy Shit
>"awesome"

That gave me SO much anxiety
Those bastards
"The plan is to have all buyable cosmetics earnable on game." So that was a fuckin lie.
Well this aged well..
this looks a lot more fun then what we were shown at e3. i wish they would have shown character specialization with perk cards and what not, more on the nukes and it creating high end areas. todd saying a dozen characters rather then 24-32 really sets off concerns especially in a world 4x the size of fallout 4. but this was a great documentary. can't wait for the beta.
Same here. I love hearing 4x the size of Fallout 4, but is 24-32 too little people? 32 might work alright, I feel as though 24 is too low. I was hoping for 50ish with the size of the world though. That's what I'm most anxious about for sure. Still, I'm hyped.
Yeah, this documentary has really made the game for me!
MrCombatgiraffe he actually said dozenS
Right they should have said more at e3. I was still excited but now I'm even more excited now. Nukes was the only thing I was against but now they sound cool
Jackson Kellams, weren't a lot of people afraid of having too many people? i think having a low number is good and makes player interactions more rare and unique, but that's just my thoughts :P
Vault 76 isn't the experiment, Fallout 76 is the experiment.
Yep.
Yeah, and the main area of inquiry is:
"How much easy cash can we make off of a shitty Rust copy/paste with a thin coat of Fallout paint?"
CJ Barbour why you gotta act like that. You dont deserve this game
Russell O Like I care.
This turd became an *EASY* pass the second they revealed it's just a shitty Rust copy/paste and not an *actual* Fallout game 😂😂😂
Lore Theorist hes the type of person who only orders the chicken fingers at every restaurant and judges the food based on that.
I recently started this game , for the first time. About 40 hours in and having a blast. Watching some videos and reviews form launch , it’s really crazy to think of all the stuff that was missing . It’s in a much better state now , and if you’re on the fence , go for it !
Co-op would have been better less chance of messing it up... but companies now and days don't know the difference between multiplayer and Co-op apparently
Nowadays*
As a West Virginia local, I'm personally really excited about 76. Especially with the Capital being a stone's throw away from my neighborhood. I've lived all along the Kanawha river and I'm wonderfully excited to visit my bombed out home sites!
Must be really cool for you! My friend's excited because he and I live in relatively the same region(East Tennessee), so he's excited that we share the same geography and culture as West Virginia.
I've never really felt anything special about Fallout 3, 4, and New Vegas' locations because I've never seen them(or anything like them) in person. (At least, until last year I visited DC).
TonydBrony oh you see any cryptids

It feels like the direction of the game was never clear when watching this documentary. All the ideas went into a pot and were mixed up, but the end result was drastically different from what the studio expected. I give them props for what they attempted to do; it was a huge risk, and it served as a learning experience that they’ll never forget
Great video. The game has such a wonderful community and is a thriving 5+ year old live service game, and will easily last 5 more! I look forward to its 10 year anniversary.

Roger Bells thanks broski
They modified the original engine to have multiplayer? My God that's insane
160rpm modders did tgat with 1, 2 , 3 and new vegas already
outdated ass engine lol
@Максим Вейсгейм
and Skyrim (TWICE)
Bethesda would rather bend this engine over backwards until it looks like a pretzel rather than just building a new one. You can bet Starfield will have all the same bugs and quirks and most importantly, crippling limitations that all their current games do. Not to mention poor Fallout 76.
Xbob42 I believe Starfield and all future titles will be on the new engine they're building not sure where I heard this but I think that is the plan
20:05 "If it's overlapping and we can't place it there, it will be packed up and blueprinted, you can place it somewhere else".
Sounds exactly like the 'feature' added in the new patch. Clear evidence if any were needed, that 76 was released early.
Fascinating. I would love to get specifics on how they merged the two sets of code. I would be obsessed sitting there reading line by line
Nuking giant bats back into the hell the crawled out of sure sounds like one heck of a good time to me...
lofi cheese didn't they say you could save your homes blueprint
Indeed, people are so used to bs games like Rust that make fun at the expense of someone elses. They refuse to believe it can be done any other way and wont even make an attempt to try it or even consider how it could be done properly. Perhaps its a product of gaming culture these days or maybe of the human condition as a whole.
Adrien Hello yup, so you could move if you wanted to
hmm the story is about killing huge winged monsters from invading the world...
Are we the fucking batborn?
We're Batman
"That's part of the appeal of a Skyrim...you can pick up a jar."
Truly inspiring game design here folks
frankly, i loved picking up objects in bethesda games, stacking them, storing them on shelves, it was pretty cool, still is.
He's not wrong. The persistent cell based gameplay mechanics are a major draw for their games, and no other contemporary company does it. Even the likes of TW3 has mere bag drops of loot and very little object interaction with the world, though I hope CDProjekt does something with Cyberpunk 2077 along the lines that BGS operates here.
JC czcams.com/video/gRcj6CAhe7s/video.html
he is right. Most games dont have this feature where you can just pick up items in the world like that. It adds a level of immersion many games do not have.
LUL
Should have been called "Making A Failure: where is the Fallout in my Fallout game?".
They thought they could pocket that money they would have spent on Voice Actors and recording time by ripping out the NPCs and thought Todd could convince us it was a good idea.
It didn't "JUST WORK" it stalled out the franchise and made people rush to play OuterWorlds instead.
Looking back, I wish No Clip was more critical during Bethesda’s last stages of development. Like why say the Fallout lore doesn’t support raiders and other human NPC factions this early yet they were there and ALL of them just died out before out Vault 76 open. Smh
I live in West Virginia and have never been this excited to play a Fallout game.
Same dude!
The next spin off Fallout should be in Europe
Fallout na hÉireann
I live in DC and i had the same feeling when Fallout 3 was set I. DC. They did a great job
I used to live in Morgantown and the fact that they specifically mentioned it gave me goosebumps!
same here i live in elkins and seeing helvita mentioned being in the game which isnt very far away is very cool so elkins may be discoverable as well.
Give everyone a choice;
A. You are shown on the map and see everyone that has also gone for option A.
B. You are not shown on the map and see no one, not even the ones that went with option A.
I think Todd pushed for the I can see people on the map feature because you don’t have a map at you at all times. ( 22:01 ) It looks like it will be somewhere else than the pip-boy? Maybe built in your camp? Maybe just like the perk-chart accesed with a press of a button like in F4. The map they showed in this game is apparently a physical in-game flyer like the perk-chart.
Maties Cleasen make sense in a way, if all other players are supposed to be fellow vault 76 dwellers, maybe they have trackers on there pitboy? A boring easily argued explanation, but it's somethig, it'd be okay if it wasent a live portable map, of your interested in the pvp aspect anyway
I think it should be like this. There is a list of everyone in the server, and you can choose who appears on your map for playing with friends, and you can hide yourself from other but it stops you from seeing others. So its like there is a choice between your two options, but you can choose who appears on your map.
this is one of the most exciting games i have ever seen. The context the video gave me allowed me to start dreaming up what kind of character i would want to create in the new fallout. Like how to become such a charismatic player that you could create a massive following from other players and become the greatest leader in fallout 76. It would be cool to allow players to create their own factions other players could join maybe mod support would allow design of exclusive gear and crafting items for the faction you chose.
Oh my gosh Danny I lost track of you a year or so ago and boy was I excited to see you in this video! +1 sub just for Danny!
That being said the more I discover about Fallout 76 the more excited I'm getting for it. Bethesda is one of my favorite studios at the moment. So many others have failed me recently ranging from Bioware to Bungie. I'm not a huge fan of all the expensive microtransactions in ESO but I still play it. I also really don't like the loot boxes in that game as well. Hopefully none of these games ever go down that route. Everyone should have learned from the EA Star Wars backlash of 2017.
I love it when game devs uses spin-offs like this to stir the pot, to add a new angle to a established IP.
I'm looking forward to Fallout 76 as a fresh way to experience the universe before coming back to the traditional single player experience once Fallout 5 comes around.
I like that you understand that this is an experiment and they're trying something new, meanwhile the people bitching about it would also bitch if they made fallout 5 and didn't add anything new.
Appleorgasm pretty much, it's the Internet, focus is always gonna be on bitching about what ya don't like *shrugs*
Remmuz crimsonlynx my fod not one but two rationnal person!?
The Internet has the habit to bitch about one of 2 things.
1) this is just the same game with a new coat of paint.
2) they completely changed the game its not even (game) anymore.
Totally agree
After watching this I feel like Fallout 4 was the game they had to make whereas 76 is the game they really wanted to make. Honestly so much more excited about this after seeing this.
Lmfao
@@Lucax97 would like to make it known, I heavily regret and would like to retract my previous statement lol
@@josephtoner7355 Understandable lol
Came to watch this after starting in Jan and reaching 1000 recently. This game is in such a good plae atm.
I played like 130 hours of fallout 76 at launch and honestly loved it. The game isnt perfect but man online fallout was so cool to me and grinding for loot was awesome.
'It's 11pm.. I've got university tomorrow. I should sleep. ' - Noclip uploads - 'eh I can stay up another 39 minutes and 42 seconds'
Goood luck.
You're not going to sleep when the game is released anyway
1am in Germany... Thinking exactly the same

It’s 3pm for me

Will you be going back to Bethesda to do a follow up video?
There's a fine line between documentary and advertisement. Please don't blur the two.
AtheistZapp Noclip is doing it from a perspective of not wanting to alienate the companies so they have to assume a position that helps the companies to give a favorable impression of them...
@AtheistZapp There's little difference between praising a game yourself and showing only voices that praise it. The difference between this vid and all the others is that this is no postmortem. That raises the question: What's the difference between an interview reel published according to a pr marketing campaign and an advertisement?
@@TF_Tony This video was published in June, I'm sure the filming took place long before that. What were you expecting Danny to do? Know the issues and complaints from the final release in June and grill Todd Howard about it? I don't like the idea of 76 and I haven't purchased it and I don't plan to, but some of you guys need to chill out.
@@somethingdifferent9024 I was expecting him not to do the 'documentary' in the first place, since it does by its very nature not qualify as anything but an advertisement. Even if Fallout 76 was the best game ever made, doing this video was still the wrong decision to make in my opinion. It's contentious, but that's what discussion is for. You might also argue that you consider interviews with the developers overseen by the devs' pr guys and published without voicing any caveats a legitimate documentary, but I disagree. A documentary, in my eyes, would have been to interview these people, then release them and also say: All of what was just said was voiced in accordance with the advertising campaign and can therefore by its very nature not hold any information that is not released to sell the game. But that would be a useless video. He could also have followed them around during development and released his insights after release (which I doubt Bethesda would have allowed), or he could have interviewed them after release and talked to them about all of the goings-on during development (which considering the feedback I also doubt Bethesda would allow).
@@TF_Tony but that's a very narrow view of what a documentary should be, you're complaining that it isn't the type of documentary you would make, rather than it isn't a documentary. I saw a documentary about how cars are made the other day, I'm sure the footage was checked to make sure the people didn't bad mouth the car company, does that mean it wasn't a documentary about how the cars are made lol? Why would it be appropriate for the maker of that documentary to voice his opinion. I think you need to learn the fine line between Documentary and Journalism.
So cool they trusted you with all this 👍🏻
I was skeptical at first of multiplayer fallout, but it seems like they really tried to go all out and make it work. I'm interested to see how it turns out.
I've been super skeptical because this is something I've NEVER wanted, and to top it off I really really did not like 4. This has my interest piqued though. I may actually give it a try. I'm still going to wait for reviews and bugs to be worked out though.
Same feeling.
It looks like they tried to go all out making a big cash cow that they admit they still haven't figured out what the identity (usually the first thing you figure out when making a product) of it is supposed to be yet, despite announcing its release in 5 months...is what it lools like
Chilliam Ace Im sure whatever FoO game you imagined this whole time, was infinitely cooler than this game. Also, how is that a good thing with 4 being so bad, seeing as this game is elaborating on all the shitty things from 4, just online?
By going all out you mean they've handed it to someone else because Zenimax are desperate to cash in but the actual main Bethesda people have no interest in making it. A bit like Elder Scrolls Online wherever that went.
It's always the same story, Rockstar North had no intention of an online mode for GTAV so Rockstar Games hounded Leslie Benzies out of his own studio and handed his franchise to someone else. Games that are made solely for profit by studios that were handed them are never as good as those that are made out of love by a studio that wanted to make them.
Just look at Battlefield Hardline, EA took DICE's franchise and gave it to a third party who released a shit game.
Always appreciate Noclip for producing docs on subjects and material they're interested in. I'm sure they wrestled with the potential downfalls of a pitch like this, one that walks the line between a window into current large scale development and publisher friendly, pre-release PR for an unfinished product. I don't think they nailed it here, there's too much of the Fallout 76 development story that is obfuscated or left untold as it currently stands, but I bet plenty of lessons were learned in case they ever decide to go the embedded route with a publisher again.
I'm rewatching this after.... well the Fallout...... This has to be how Time travelers feel huh?
Haha the comments of people saying it was going to be bad are the real time travelers. I'm reading those comments and the replays they got smh it's sad.
Really enjoyed this, I appreciate you making it.
bakerXderek need to play a live stream with some people from the youtube community when this comes out
Can I get a CHEAH!?
Awesome seeing you here my guy. Totally agree though.
Todd says the Fallout fans are so smart but then you scroll down to read the comments and there are literally hundreds of people commenting about this guy's discord notification. Unbelievable.
Higher Media 😄😭😂
You're kinda stupid for not realizing why those hundreds of people do that, sorry.
Rewatching this now that the game is out, it kind of makes you sad thinking of all the opportunities the studio wasted and ended up shipping a shitty game
