Hold off and see where this is going first...
I've been a huge fan of the fallout series for a while now and I really started with Fallout 3 on the Xbox 360. I never completed 4, but will be going back to it soon. Especially now that I've shelved Fallout 76. I follow the two Fallout (Fallout and FO76) subreddits and while I appreciate what Bethesda has done for communication, it has really tarnished my feelings for the developer and in the future, I will be hesitant to purchase another one of their games until we see how it turns out. The lore is great. The exploration is fantastic! Unfortunately, this is about all the game has going for it. It's a huge bug-ridden mess, there are so many issues. Combat is clunky and don't even get me started on V.A.T.S. I play on an LG C7 OLED TV and while there is HDR, there are NO video options for brightness or anything of the nature. My TV is calibrated perfectly, yet this game is so bright - even in dark scenes. It all just looks washed out. The lack of including even the simplest things really drags this game down. The building feature of Fallout 4 was pretty much an "experimentation" leading up to this game. There are just far too many issues and the game feels so lonely without the NPC's and dialog trees to go through, which are all highlights of any grand Bethesda game of this scale. Save yourself the money. Get something else instead. Wait 6, 9 or even 12 months and see if this game shows any improvement over that time span. Hopefully, Bethesda doesn't abandon this game. The ONLY reason I give this game 2 stars is because some parts of it are very enjoyable (the lore and exploration)...WHEN it works. This game does have promise and if handled properly, could be a fantastic addition to the franchise. Maybe they will "rework" this like what happened to Final Fantasy XIV, when they turned it into "A Realm Reborn".

Lonely & paranoid at the same time
Let it be known that I loved Fallout 4. It was my introduction to the Fallout franchise. While I did go back and play bits of Fallout 1, 2, New Vegas, and 3, I played through Fallout 4 three separate times, eventually getting the platinum, 100% completion trophy on the PS4. Even when the story ended, I loved wandering around the Commonwealth and the DLC zones, finding all the cool little visual vignettes the designers had hidden in each broken down shack and ruined campsite. Each time I'd wander out -- alone -- I'd come back with bits of junk that would help me reinforce my settlement, personalizing my own little corner of post-apocalyptic Massachusetts. And in my survival playthrough, I'd have to think very carefully about just how much food, water, and ammo I had with me. That's what Fallout 76 is like, but in West Virginia, and with this constant feeling that some jerk is going to step out of the woods and end you for your inventory full of junk. It's light on story (yet heavy on lore, if you like reading terminals and listening to holotapes) and all about exploration and survival. Life is about food, water, radiation, ammo, and the deterioration of your weapons and armor. Now, I've been playing since the beta, and that hasn't happened to me, yet (knock on wood scraps). The limited number of players on each server and the humongous open world map make it really easy to not see another human-controlled character for an entire gaming session. When you combine that with the absence of any human NPCs, however, that can make Fallout 76 a very lonely experience. There has been a lot of controversy connected to the launch of this game. It is buggy. I have been disconnected a few times. There are choices that the developers made to make this work as a multiplayer game that futz up the solo Fallout experience I enjoyed in Fallout 4 (e.g., bobbleheads are a single-use perk, almost like a super chem), and others that are just weird (e.g., you can pack your power armor up and carry it around with you). I'm hoping Bethesda will do what Hello Games did with No Man's Sky and spend the next few months carefully addressing the issues their gamers are raising, while at the same time adding new and cool aspects to a 2.0 version of the game. If they do, I would come back and boost my review to 5 stars. If they don't, I could easily imagine this game fading to a 3- or even 2-star experience.

Good game, but no NPCs is a downer
This is a great game so far, with lots to do and a huge map to explore. But the elimination of NPCs and their story lines is kind of a let down for me compared to other fallout games. The strong multiplayer part may be more appreciated by others. But still a good game.
