Plot

Once again, you play as a dweller of a Vault—one of many fallout shelter, which saved the remains of humanity during the nuclear Great War, which began and ended in 2077. The story begins in the eponymous Vault 76, located near Washington, in the area once known as the state of West Virginia.

Destructoid: 4 / 10 by Brett Makedonski

There's no sugarcoating it: Fallout 76 comes up short at nearly everything it aims to be. It's not a good role-playing game and it's not a good multiplayer experience. It never really feeds into the gradual RPG power fantasy but it's also inadequate as a survival simulator. In wanting to be so much, Fallout 76 doesn't amount to much at all.

Full Review

IGN: 7 / 10 by Travis Northup

In 2024, Fallout 76 finally captures a lot of the post-nuclear experience I love. It trades roleplaying decision-making for multiplayer shooter antics, but it still needs more endgame content and a fair inventory solution.

Eurogamer: by Wesley Yin-Poole

Bethesda's attempt at Fallout multiplayer is, like so many of the series' vaults, a failed experiment.

The main pros of the game

  • Improved Gameplay Experience: Many players noted that Fallout 76 has significantly improved since its launch, with better graphics, more content, and a more engaging world. The addition of human NPCs and quests has made the game feel more alive and immersive.
  • Exploration and World Design: The game features a vast, beautifully designed world filled with various locations to explore, secrets to uncover, and a rich lore that appeals to fans of the Fallout series.
  • Community and Multiplayer Aspect: The player community is generally friendly and helpful, with many players willing to assist newcomers. The multiplayer aspect allows for cooperative gameplay, which enhances the overall experience.
  • Base Building: The CAMP system allows players to create and customize their bases, adding a layer of creativity and personalization to the game.
  • Addictive Gameplay Loop: Players find the game engaging, with a satisfying progression system, crafting, and loot mechanics that encourage exploration and experimentation.

The main cons of the game

  • Technical Issues: Despite improvements, many players still report bugs, glitches, and server instability, which can detract from the overall experience.
  • Monetization Concerns: The Fallout 1st subscription service, which locks key quality-of-life features behind a paywall, has been criticized as a greedy practice. Players feel that essential features like unlimited storage should be included in the base game rather than requiring an additional monthly fee.
  • Repetitive Content: Some players express frustration with the repetitive nature of missions and events, feeling that the game can become monotonous over time.
  • Limited Inventory Management: The weight limit for storage is a common complaint, with many players finding it cumbersome to manage inventory without the Fallout 1st subscription.

The features or elements that are missing from the game according to users

  • Quality of Life Improvements: Players desire more fundamental features like unlimited storage and better inventory management systems without needing to pay for a subscription.
  • Enhanced Trading System: The trading mechanics are often described as broken or cumbersome, leading to frustrations when trying to exchange items with other players.
  • More Meaningful Story Content: Many users feel that the storylines and quests lack depth and impact, wishing for a more engaging narrative experience akin to previous Fallout titles.
  • Server and Social Features: Players have called for better social tools, improved server stability, and a more cohesive multiplayer experience that allows for easier collaboration on quests.

Summary

  • In summary, while Fallout 76 has made significant strides since its troubled launch, it still faces criticism regarding its monetization practices, technical issues, and content repetitiveness. The game is enjoyed by many for its exploration and community aspects, but it remains a divisive title among fans of the franchise.
