Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the extensive gameplay and large map as significant strengths of Fallout 76 Tricentennial Edition, with many praising the opportunities for exploration in the open world and online play. However, a recurring concern revolves around the presence of technical issues, including bugs and occasional crashes affecting server stability. Some players also express disappointment with the game's narrative, finding it lacking in comparison to previous installments. The overall experience appears to be a mixed bag, with substantial playtime balanced against technical shortcomings and narrative weaknesses.

    This game was not what I was hoping it to be like. They should of left most of the features like fallout 4. If something isn't broken don't try to fix it

    Terrible Game, I wish I had not spent my hard earned money on this game. I wish Bethesda would have just made a Fallout 5.

    This was a waste of money. No NPCs has ruined the game. Very disappointed because it had landmarks from my area.

    I'm a huge fallout and Bethesda fan. This is not what you'll expect, and you should return it if you have the chance.

    So I spent more time creating a character than playing the actual game. It just couldn’t keep my attention.

    Complete Waste of Time- basically still in Beta

    This game is still very broken, Absolutely no thought has been put into game balance. The stupid junk death mechanic will waste hours and hours of collection time and then steal everything you collected due to lag/crashes/clipping bugs with ZERO COMPENSATION for your effort. It doesn't even register Playstation accomplishments when it crashes but will still remember to steal your crafting materials, even when it made it impossible to have a chance to retrieve them. Extremely dull and grindy, there is no sense of progression after level 50-60. After you've found the major locations there is absolutely nothing. Crafting is 98% GARBAGE and very few useful plans(>1%) ever drop. Ridiculous amount of armor recipes, 100% of which are not ever worth crafting, it is all just for show. Perk card system stops progressing meaningfully after about level 70 and gets VERY annoying with all the card swapping. Zero effort was put into any quality of life touches regarding the perk system Inventory management is a never ending nightmare, there is no way to preset any armor combinations and food is constantly rotting with no easy way to manage it effectively. It is obvious that other than cut and pasting code from other Bethesda games and creating very little new art that this game had 4 months of rushed development, not 3 years. This game should have been released Free to Play there is ZERO replay value after about 50 exceedingly grindy hours, especially after all the crafting material losses due to bugs. The game gets WORSE the longer you play, it is nothing but a quick money grab.

    It’s a copy and paste of fall out 4 brighter with more rocks, and zero story. Literally the biggest cash grab I’ve ever seen out of a video game and I’m 32. By far the worst video game I’ve ever purchased in my life. There’s nothing original or clever about this game. They clearly didn’t want to pay a story writer and voice actors. Besides that the game it self crashes, freezes and is super buggy. There is no redeeming qualities about this game. I’d say they swung and missed but after playing this you can tell it’s 100% a cash grab off of the success of previous titles.

    One of the worst games I've ever played. This is not a real fallout game. Just a cheap cash grap. The only thing that works in this game are the overpriced microtransactions. No real RPG elements. Safe your cash.
