Lately I have been replaying Fallout 3 and although it has its flaws (mostly technical flaws because of Bethesda) its a good RPG.

They already had a decent formula and Obsidian expanded on it and added more depth, especially for character creation.

All Bethesda had to do was keep the same formula and add the improved shooting mechanics and Fallout 4 would have been great.

The one thing I noticed about Fallout 3 and 4 is Bethesda damn near recycled the same story.

In Fallout 3 the son/daughter is looking for their father. In Fallout 4 the father/mother is looking for their son.

I don't know who handles the writing for Bethesda but they need to be fired for that lazy effort.


Also I'm also curious if Fallout 76 was originally supposed to be a single player spinoff. The vault is mentioned in Fallout 3 as the player finds out about the vault when looking for information for vault 87.

Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim have the same plot too ... you're a prisoner who escapes and ends up being the world's savior.

They don't know how to do this

They are trying to go public. Supposedly this is the reason why they are aggressively pushing microtransactions. Basically they are trying to become EA.
They're a subdivision of ZeniMax. Are they the ones looking to go public?

I think I posted this video before which explains why Bethesda is pushing microtransactions.



Also I think management has changed over time for Bethesda.

If yal still supporting this shyt you part of the problem

This.

And bullshyt aside; the main thing keeping me from playing is this is basically a Power Armor game.

I always though that was the wackness part of Fallout 4; how much Power Armor is apart of the game.

Takes away mad tension and challenge.

this pretty much looks like exactly what the game was supposed to be when it dropped

And I’m seeing nothing but positivity for this, bethesda managing to pull off a no mans sky :ohhh:
