The extra kicker for the helmet is that, apparently, some of the helmets ended up growing a deadly (or at least illness-inducing) mold in the terrible padding.
It wasn't super deadly, but it was toxic enough to be a major Health Hazard
I remember hearing that it was a limited 3rd party version of their regular ones, so apparently it was another company's fault. But I'm not against the idea that it was a shell company for Bethesda to try to start a zombie apocalypse.
Bethesda wanted to deliver the true fallout experience by giving players real-life biohazards
@@cutman15 yeah, all of the "bad" helmet were the ones coming from a couple of specific factories that used material they shouldn't have to cut corners, that one was hardly on bethesda, but became a pile on of bad luck
It was GameSpot if I remember correctly
Now compare this to how Sean Murray handled No Man's Sky's failed launch.
There's a huge difference between developers that care and developers that don't.
I rant so hard about that at the end of this video haha
I'd consider it less the fault of the devs and more of the marketing side of things. People always dog on devs but the people making the game itself don't have any control and are given a brief and a deadline and told to do that.
@@Storse I agree. For AAA games like this I'm referring to the dev as Bethesda, since as a company they had the power to set the time tables, the budget, the overhead, the marketing, pretty much everything that goes into making this game work. The actual dev team making this were just cogs in the machine, and don't deserve the flak.
Unlike Sean and Hello Games, Bethesda as a company had full control of the project. If time or technology was an issue, they could push the project back, tell the people what's going on, set a date when you know it will be done, and put it out when it's fully finished. But that costs more money and time, and most companies are greedy and just want as much profit as possible as fast as possible, regardless of any long term benefits of doing it right for the benefit of the consumers like us.
@Aliciaxdeath Seeing you still believe Bethesda was gonna somehow clutch......
Was like watching you react to Edgerunners while knowing how it was gonna end
You know the funny thing is, that No Man's Sky just got a new update xD
Alicia: "Those gamer cheeks are about to get clapped
Fiancé: "excuse me?"
There are three ways to make a game last forever
Make it competitive.
Make its gameplay and story timeless
Make it a meme *cough* MGR:R *cough*
Memes: the DNA of the soul!
Among US.
MGR:R's gameplay was fucking fire tho. But yeah, mostly memes
Or even good music. Like MGR.
THE ONLY THING I KNOW FOR REAL,
THERE WILL BE *BLOOD!* *SHED!*
The main in the mirror nods his head

Will ride upon the Dragon's Back!
@@b3rz3rk3r9 Because the mountains don't give back what they take *riff*
THERE WILL BE *BLOOD! SHED!*
ITS THE ONLY THING IVE EVER *KNOOOOOOOOWN!*
Alicia be like “If you’re dealing with depression and cleaning up your home feels overwhelming, just take it a day at a time. You’ll get through this, you f*cking virgin”
LMAOOO I MEAN... Not wrong.
Dust: “Allow me to introduce myself”
I said this exact thing out loud after she gave that speech xD
I have a nearly 20 year chronic depression - while I appreciate the sentiment, I've found that the only real solution was to hire a cleaning agency to come by once a month, because I simply cannot handle it longterm. I might be able to take a bit at a time, but inevitably it will just pile up all over again, and I will feel all the worse for failing again.
Hiring a professional cleaner has been a huge relief, probably one of the best and healthiest decisions of my life - even if it means cutting back on other things to buy to afford it. If you can't handle it yourself, get help instead of feeling guilty about it - even a one-time cleanup can be a significant boost to your morale, if you can afford it.
Alicia: Makes fun of me for being a virgin.
Me: HaHa so true
Alicia: Excuses people for having messy rooms because of genuine and serious issues.
Me: How dare you!
Internet Historian has become an actual Internet Historian.
It's not just a clever name lol
He was always an internet historian
He also did History-History as well.
Internet Historian:
"Doing a better job than the American Education System since 2017"
Nah, he's always an internet historian
I wanna say, I love how expressive your model is, and your personality meshing well with it. Props to you and your model artist!
Agreed, of all V-Tubers models I have seen, hers is the best
🥺
And the rigger! Some of the best rigging I've seen from an independent vtuber
The elf model balances cute and sassy so perfectly, I love it
I was about to say the say the same thing, its a testament to Alicia's skill in using it and the skill of the person who made the model.
30:00 this genuinely made me cry. I've been in a really shitty mental state for the past few months, and I haven't had friends over in a while because I've felt ashamed of the state of my house. I'm scared to ask for help because I feel like my friends will judge and it hurts so much. Thank you for the support. I know it wasn't directed at anyone in particular but thank you.
Hey I hope you’re okay, and I get it. My new job has had me working in this heat wave 10 hours a day 6 days a week and that on top of my unmedicated depression has made me just pass out as soon as I get home. My room looks like hot shit, and I don’t even want to look at the kitchen.
But we got this. Little pieces at a time.
Even without help, just cleaning up helps a lot with fixing state of mind. But the trick is to focus on one area or one spot at a time. If needed, the kitchen or bathroom sink first, that way you can clean the recyclables so you can have them taken away separately or take to the center yourself; this will greatly speed up the process of cleaning up.
Alicia: "This sounds reasonable, where did they go wrong?"
Me: Laughing maniacally at the soon to be lost innocence
It isn’t even reasonable really especially while making it a multiplayer game.
Quick fact: if a publisher is promoting the technical aspects of a game instead of the gameplay, it's probably not a good game.
@@WisteriaDrake And people are gonna fall for it every time
"How did they release that? It's Bethesda!"
Uh... because it's Bethesda.
@@zamu2I mean it’s not a bad game now, cause of the updates n shit. It’s just an average game yk.
the pep talk at the half hour mark was ... My apartment isn't even messy and even I needed that. Thanks Alicia
eyyy no problem!! I'm glad I could help in some way :3
Alicia is so pure hearted, feeling anger on behalf of those who had their accounts swapped. Meanwhile I can only recall Pat of the late SBFP going "eh fuck'em, thats what you get for supporting this piece of shit" xD
Yeah, I don't understand why people were surprised. I mean, even if all the code and features were perfect, and the core gameplay loop was going to be the best thing ever...
Hackers would ruin it. Mmm, yes, that's what I want. I want Fallout 4 that I can't mod, but where every NPC is hacked to nuke me the second I get even near them.
We've already seen Rockstar fail on this front (to the point people lost their accounts to script kiddies). The writing was all over the wall.
What the fuck.
There's actually a few more that aren't mentioned in the video:
1. The game came with a BETA test in order to "fix the game at launch" (they didn't. It was just as buggy)
2. The Game Stop version of the power armor helmet had toxic chemicals in it that got recalled because it would poison people.
3. The game launched with ZERO HUMAN NPCS.
Also, the game DID get updated for free, but it was kinda too late. They added a battle Royale mode (wet fart) and then later added human NPCs (Finally, but damage was already done.) By now, the game is fine at best, but still widely accepted as being very boring.
"Then go make the glass one, you fucks!" that caught me by surprise and cracked me up 😂
it’s like those internet hagglers trying to get you to lower prices to absurd amounts by saying “i saw this for x low price elsewhere” like okay, buy it from there then.
Regarding the Internet Historian questions:
- As far as I've seen, there haven't been any updates on the class action lawsuit.
- This video was from long before Covid, actually. Even funnier, Internet Historian eventually did a couple of videos on the pandemic and several of the effects it had, and the toilet paper panic was the first thing he discussed in them.
oo ya that's a good series
He did a better job reporting on the virus of indeterminate origin better then actual news organizations...and he did it as a joke.
Her: so what went wrong?
Me: every single time Tod opened his mouth.
"I really thought that there would be a turning point..."
But there WAS a turning point. Several of them, even. It's just that they were all turns FOR THE WORSE.
Alicia trying to punch is like a kitten trying to swipe thinking they're a lion
So… adorable, you mean?
@@theoneguyoverthere yes
You mean......a rat?
The video "Every single Warhammer 40k faction explained" by Bricky is a pretty good watch should you be willing to go down that particular rabbithole.
Agree, Bricky’s videos are great
Alicia is rapidly becoming one of my favorite video commentators of all time with that Uber-expressive model, quick-witted yet adorkable mouth, and the sheer passion she exerts whenever she is pleased or angered by the topic of the day. Keep it up big gal.
I've been watching her here in YT for maybe a month, and honestly same.
The sad/funny part is there was so much continued drama and issues for a few months after the release of that video that plenty of us were waiting for Internet Historian to do a Part 2 to this video. Like some noted, there was a standalone sale of the Power Helmet that contained mold and needed to be recalled. The game started selling 100+ dollar subscriptions allowing you to play private servers, said private servers were not private servers but recycled public servers, meaning that anytime you logged out, everything you left behind would get ransacked by strangers. And the private servers weren't even private to begin with even when you were logged in, allowing randoms and friends to come uninvited into your private sever.
Honestly it's been years so I have forgotten a lot of the details. But basically, the community that played Fallout76 were eventually recognized as very supportive, but they were effectively stockholm syndromed copium filled players who were their own support system within a game that was continuously being more aggressive against them.
Sounds like WoW.
don't forget about the class war
don't forget, they made a promise that there wouldn't be any microtransactions only to immediatly sell the santa outfit after release.
@@dudejoe24the what?
Crazy how triple A studio fucked up a launch and couldn't fix it despite a small team like Hello Games fixing AND improving their shit after also fucking up their big launch.
Really shows the contrasts between small companies working really fucking hard to just make it somewhat and triple A's going "ah fuck it they'll buy it regardless!"
it doesn't help that bethesda's hgher ups acted really shitty here too, carelessly punshing anyone they deemed to have 'done a naughty' withut bothering to see if thy itndned to do anythign bad or even HAD done anythign wrong, giving people peanuts in comparison to the crap they spent money on and generally acting like snotty shits
"gotta be a lot to do at work tomorrow....gotta get up in 7 hours...betta go to bed"
Alicia uploads this
....I can sleep in the office.
eyyy hope work goes well for you tomorrow though too :D
Hah, exactly the same for me. Life is great :D
Gotta say, the cleaning bit did in fact motivate me, finally took the time to clean up the mess and finally get my room nice and clean.
YOOO! proud of you :D good shit homie
Every time I see someone reacting to this video, which is always fun as I consider this IHs best work so far, I am sad that no one reacts to "The enemy AI is far more A than I" with how I expect it.
I laughed my ass off at this sentence due to how he delivered it. Granted everyone has a different type of humor but come on yall making me feel like the weird one xD
I might be stupid but I don't quite understand the joke.
@@jackstar7204 The letter I in AI stands for intelligence. The enemies are not intelligent, hence there is more A than I.
@@laticuslad Thanks
You aren’t the only one. I laughed so damn hard.
@@laticusladOoo, that's good.
The crazy part is, there's a lot more stuff that Internet Historian didn't get around to mentioning here, even at the time of his video's release. After his video released, even more stuff happened as well. It's insane how incompetent Bethesda is, and it's even more insane how there are still lots of people who trust them.
Yeah, I went through many waves of disappointment over the years from Bungie leaving Halo, losing trust in Bethesda, breaking away from Blizzard, etc. Each year now I find myself playing a higher ratio of indie games.
I remember when Angry Joe was doing almost weekly segments of this game because of how badly and frequently the game and Bethesda kept f8cking up. It was absolutely hilarious
Yongyea was the same) at some point he stopped making recaps that he usually does for his videos
@@danzansandeev6033 it was basically a weekly series and I made sure to watch every time 😂
I remember when Steph covered them all the time because it literally was a scandal a week with these people, it was basically a spiritual successor to the fuck konami series for a while
The content gold mine
I remember when Castle Superbeast (or maybe the Bestfriendcast, I forget how many years ago this was) had a "this many week since '76 screwed up" segment.
Man, Brian from GameStop is the hero we didn't know we needed. So damn chill while the guy is trashing the store.
There were things that happened after this video was made. One big one was a personal robot that was suppose to clean your base and be in the game fro free at launch. However they forgot to put it in and told players 6 months later that they were putting it in the game….however now they wanted you to pay more cash for it.
The other big one was some player was using a glitch to harm other players. So a group of data miner friends decided to figure out how he was doing it. These guys had created an interactive map of Fallout 76 showing where everything they found was and had it online for free. So they spent awhile finding out exactly how the glitch worked and after piling their research they sent it to Bathesda saying what it was, how it was done, and how to fix it. What was Bethesda’s response…..they perm banned them for using the glitch instead of thanking them. The guy that was actually using it to harm others was given a 3 day ban while theirs was perm ban, Bathesda claimed it was because he only used it a couple times while they had attempted it hundreds of times. The data miners have ere so angry that they took down the free interactive map.
The "Country Roads" schtick comes from the fact that when the game was announced, the first trailer we got used the song. It was also utilized in just about every bit of promo material, and so you could very easily call it out as being the theme song of the game. Naturally gamers did as they always have done and ramped up their expectations while also denouncing any detractors who would try to limit their expectations of what was being promised, while meming the shit out of everything Fallout in anticipation for the game, so of course Country Roads was looped into that. I. Historian's constant use of the song and variants throughout the video is just superb because it takes all that good will and burns it down in the most sarcastic way possible, which is what the game ultimately deserved on release. I have no idea if it is more playable now. I played for maybe 2-4 hours and just quit.
I tried it last week because it was on sale (10$).
It’s meh. I’m probably the wrong audience though as I’m more of a “get into random fights with mobs” player than a “build a camp and micro-manage stuff” one.
It's an actual Fallout game now unlike at release. But after it got better,devs made it worse by introducing seasonal grind objectives which force you to play the game 6h every day if you want to get all the season stuff just by playing. The other option is to use money to skip some or all of the grind.
I played it for over 300 hours with friends after the improvements but could not stomach it anymore after couple of these seasons so I just quit.
Well, technically the game is playable most of the time nowadays. But greed has destroyed all the fun you could have had. You still can't create mods. story, lore and environment contradict each other and themselves all the time. And the atom shop blights all game mechanics.
@@hyoryo Is the class war still going on? Did they ever fix those premium features that actually did the opposite of what they should? (Private servers, infinite storage, etc) I genuinely sometimes wonder what happened after I stopped caring about FO news
@@julioc.3158 no they never fixed anything, they only shifted problems back and forth. one patch you needed to convert all your earnings into consumables, another patch you needed to regularly sell consumables because of overweight.
as far as i heard premium is as useless as it can get: unlimited storage extends only to crafting components and bullets, everything you gain on private servers is not added to your profile, and on average you can buy one skin every three months from the premium atoms.
FO76 is a complete trainwreck, i have little to no hope in beth to ever releasing a fun game again.
And having recently watched a solid 10 hours of a pair of youtubers seeing what Fallout 76 looks like today... It didnt get better XD
Mikeburnfire?
@@thehydragoosePatricianTV and Private Sessions (dunno if either of those go by Mikeburnsfire - they released their videos last month)
Yes it has gotten better barely any bugs and the cryptid stuff is 🔥
say that it didn't improve isn't really fair, but all of the bad design choices that were made during design can't really be fixed, and that's a given
@@ecyor0 have to see the last part yet, but the guy has been slacking. there are multiple point where he went for a "good enough, there's video to be done" rather than doing analisys. still correct on a 75-80% range, but not the gospel on the matter
"Links are cringe."
As someone who is always curious and never takes precautions, I felt that.
Also, "pausing Andy" is such a mood.
Okay, I am officially hooked on this channel. Beautifully expressive vtuber model? Check. Wicked sense of humor? Check. Wholesome self-care messages to break up the snark? Subscribed.
God, I remember watching all of this unfold as it happened. To say I was flabbergasted is an understatement.
Same here, stuff just kept going more and more wrong. I just started to think I no longer would be surprised if something fucked up, but loh and behold, they continuously found ways to still surprise. At least this has resulted in a great deal of amusement.
Fun Fact for Alicia: Fallout 76 didn't have any human NPCs in the world (outside of the broke enemies you find), quests or much of a main plot til April 14th of 2020. Just a bit over 2 years of incompetence til they added (sorta) functional life to this mmo they waffle stomped into existence
I'm sorry, WHAT? How in the FUCK can you have an MMO and no NPCs outside of combat 2 until 2 years after release.... da fuq?
i have no fucking clue but man, it feels like a completely different game now because of it.
@@Sovek86 Actually, for me personally, even though I knew they were going ass-backwards into idiocy, the idea of an MMO with no NPCs actually got my imagination going. I started thinking about how it would work if there was an MMO where players could give each other quests and run their own shops and, like, the things beta testers do while testing would be used to make the lore of the game and shiz.
Well, the no NPC's thing was intentional since the idea was that players would be populating a completely destroyed world. It seemed like a pretty interesting idea, but in practice, it just became boring.
Probably should have said it before, but the chief reason I watch your videos is the pausing Andy thing. You are the first reviewer I've seen who consistently sees and highlights things I never considered or thought about in media you watch. You always offer fresh perspective that enhances the media.
Absolutely agree. It's shameful that reactionary channels, most of which WITHOUT any form of commentary, tend to get more views and are rewarded for a minimal amount of effort compared to the content they are "reacting" to. The very least that a reaction channel should do is actually have a perspective to offer, and I appreciate Alicia wholeheartedly for putting in that extra effort. And being so hecking charming whilst doing it.
It's genuinely surprising to me how surprised Alicia is at Bethesda's antics. This has been par for the course for them ever since Todd took over. Figured this would be old new for an industry veteran like her.
And even before that. I mean, Daggerfall was known for its bugs and mind-bendingly weird procedural dungeons as much as it was for the good parts.
Last I checked, Todd didn’t take over, he’s basically the voice/face, but even he’s just answering to the actual owners. I could be wrong, but if I’m not then I do feel bad for the constant shit he gets.
@ImYourCherryBomb Nah, plenty of Bethesda's shit choices have come from Todd. Yes, he has to try to hype up the terrible ideas from Zenimax (now Microsoft), but he's personally responsible for plenty of fuckery himself.

The Part where Alicia asks if there was no happy ending, and if they were a dogshit company. It really got me.
Lol for a company that made Morrowind and Fallout 3, this game was such a fuck up
@@rillzy9637 Weird right? They even used the same game engine for Morrowind for Fallout 76, how could it possibly have gone this poorly?
@@kyosokutai it’d actually be good if they used the same engine.
@@rillzy9637 it is the same engine, just with a jury rigging for multiplayer
Seeing Alicia laugh at the little gamerpoop skyrim clips makes me want her to react to them, such classics of internet
12:00 I remember that when SNK were developing King of Fighters 15, they announced a delay to the game. Pushed it back from late 2021 to Early 2022. Predictably, people weren't happy. The instant the developers said that it was so they could implement Rollback Netcode (which is apparently the community preferred setup for online multiplayer), a lot of the fury died down.
Just goes to show that if you're open with why you're delaying a game, it can really help build trust.
The most legendarily bungled launch in gaming history, followed by the single furthest fall-from-grace of any software dev EVER!
I dunno, I feel like Blizzard probably takes the later as of late.
@@rna151 agreed, bethesda has been in the dump since skyrim stopped being the platinum standard due to quality-creep, but beside this launch, it never went out of their way to be criminally destructive
blizzard has been multiple stretches of prison-worthy active crisis one after another
@@serPomiz honestly the most memorable thing blizzard has done in a good while is just "Do you guys not have phones?", Because that is still one of the stupidest arguments ever made
@@EddieB-ready “We want Diablo 4”
“Pay-to-win Diablo Mobile game. Take it or leave it.”
"The product was not up to the usual Fallout standard" is still the funniest part of this.
Her points about putting out a complete game without major bugs will result in great sales is extra on point after Baldurs Gate 3 came out
Alicia's comment on the "apology essay" is by far the most sound explanation I've ever heard 😂😂😂
friend of mine was all over this game since the beta. he had an explosive shotgun that survived the early purge of hacked/duped items. he loved that weapon.
one day it was just gone.. he stopped playing.
this year, he found out that his son had stolen it then lied about it for years. he was so pissed! he wanted to punish his son, but wife wanted leniency... he settled for sneaking on son's account and giving it back to himself & playing dumb when son freaked out about losing his best (stolen) weapon.
This comment deserves an upvote
If that happened to me I would just go in my son's room every single day when he was playing his games and just turn off whatever he's playing If it meant unplugging it from the wall Or turn the power off.
Not a bad response. I would've just utilized parental controls.
@@dylanperkins5909 that's fucked
Yeah, this was only really the tip of the iceberg. With everything else that happened, Internet Historian could likely create another two videos of this length and quality.
Also, about the Christmas "emotes" scandal. I distinctly remember a video about this situation and how the emotes you were buying weren't actually emotes, and I believe it showed that the emotes were exactly the same as the base ones. You were essentially paying $12 for Christmas themed cosmetics for the GIFs that floated above your character when doing the emote.
this, there were some particle effect (that may or may not activate due to other stuff going on in the area), but all but 2 of those were the basic animation with a different signal showing.
I believe that there were some internal restructuring after that. event internal people cannot justify that lack of budget going into actual work
32:50
Your model is genuinely eye-catching, especially with how it captures your expressions and facial movements so flawlessly in this lil moment. *chef's kiss*
Other bs that I heard about- for awhile there was a glitch that made it so hackers could instantly empty another player's inventory as soon as they were on screen.
A group of friends discovered a duplication glitch in the game, made extensive documentation of all the ways the glitch would trigger they could find, and sent that complete file to 76 staff. They were instantly banned for cheating, and when word of it started getting out, the ban was reduced to a 1 month period.
"It just works'
The thing about skin prices is that everyone tries to slowly bump up the pricing. Valorant is $20 and diablo iv is $25, but those might not have been so egregious if fallout 76 hadn’t tried $18 skin prices
Jedi: Survivor is actually very good, it has performance issues which is probably how you know it due to that publication. The story and gameplay outside of those few performance issues though, you can tell so much love was put into it.
I must have been lucky because I hear about all the issues people had with the game, but I didn't have any at all and I loved it. I wasn't on the internet while I was playing it and was shocked to hear everyone complaining.
@@uh8myzenSame, I’m glad that as the days go by, people enjoy it more and more and the performance issues are being ironed out. But for the people who aren’t fans, they’ll always think of the game as a bug-filled sh*t show. That just makes me sad. It’s a shame these kinda of things happen.
@@Sarge327 While I get the idea of it being a good game, it being known as a trash game is good as a lesson to game devs to actually release a working product. This idea of "when it gets patched it will work" is a piece of shit idea that has infected the gaming sphere and hurts the consumers more than anything.
@@anthonyrodriguez9232 Don’t even start with that philosophy shit, you should know damn well that this is in no way the developers faults. It’s the publishers that forced the game to release in such a state.
@@Sarge327 Look man you can keep licking boots but the fact that indie games can come out working with far better quality and way smaller teams, same thing either other games ie Fromsoft or Capcom with Resident Evil 4, Monster Hunter, or Street Fighter. There is no excuse and the fact that people want to attempt to cover it up with "but the poor people at the bottom" are just letting others get abused and lied to because you can't see through the bs. But if you want to let people who truly have no cares about anything hide behind innocents and use them as shields, you do you.
It's quite impressive how much reputation damage a AAA company could do and fuck up in a single game
I'm glad your reaction content is transformative and you don't just sniperwolf.
It's like watching a movie with a friend instead of sitting at home alone and rewatching a vid.
You and Krakenfall are two of my top fav reactors cause you'll pause and analyze.
Something that wasn't mentioned in this video is that the power armor helmet that comes with the power armor edition became moldy really quickly because of how it was designed. You know, the one you're supposed to wear over your face. Bet that was a fun discovery.
Iirc, that was actually a different power armor helmet, I think it was a gamestop special, either preorder bonus or special edition, don't remember the details.
So wait, the toy soldiers were the only good thing to come out of this? Please tell they didn't muck that up...
@@HypercomboProduction I bet they somehow they did.
@@dante_0962 someone answered this question in a different post.
The toy soldiers barely looked like anything from the Fallout series and looked and felt cheap. Like they came from a dollar store or something.
Which sucks because they made high quality minis for the Fallout TTRPG series.

I've been battling depression for three years now (not covid related) and this surprise nice and supportive Alicia moment made me cry Thank you Alicia 😭
I have a nearly 20 year chronic depression - while I appreciate the sentiment, I've found that the only real solution was to hire a cleaning agency to come by once a month, because I simply cannot handle it longterm. I might be able to take a bit at a time, but inevitably it will just pile up all over again, and I will feel all the worse for failing again.
Hiring a professional cleaner has been a huge relief, probably one of the best and healthiest decisions of my life - even if it means cutting back on other things to buy to afford it.

Thanks for reacting to this one! Was looking forward to it :p
I remember expecting the game to be bad before it came out, because Bethesda usually releases buggy games that their fanbase has to fix with unofficial patches and an MMO cant do that.
I didnt expect it to be THIS bad. Especially not this consistently.
As an aside, why the hell did they even put the devroom in the game? You dont need one in an MMO.
20:44 Your fiancee could either be too dumbfounded to continue _or_ he could go into overdrive
unless you're the one who claps
If it hasn't been said already, the day one patch was basically re-downloading most of the game because it was somehow MORE unplayable before hand.
oh that is actually a cool as fact cause I didn't know
Any known examples?
I remember that review of the Nuka Cola Dark drink, I recall that they summed up the flavor being similar to straight up drinking vanilla extract and coconut juice with rubbing alcohol. The dumber thing in this regard, they did have bottles of Nuka Cola that went to journalists and were even available during E3 when they were showing off Fallout 3. It was with actual glass and was kinda okay, but it was still something you can drink.
Let's be honest.
Coca Cola? Might as well say thats the actual flavor of basic Nuka as is. Because I don't wanna bother with whatever recipe the actual NC is
@@dj11o9er9 considering the actual recipe in the game has actual radiation? Nope.
@@strategicarchitect869 i meant the irl nuka cola recipe
The only good idea was getting Jone's soda to make the quantum
That's quantum@@strategicarchitect869
Ok, ive seen you lurking around in my recommended for a while now, and never took a look. Now im glad i did, because your rants are interesting and comprehensive to a degree.
Anyone who know fallout knows nuka cola is based on coca cola. But the bottle is in the style of a rocket. Meaning it is GLASS. It's been glass since Fallout 3. and in the nuka world dlc for 4, the extra flavors INCLUDING dark, they're all in either clear glass or FROSTED GLASS. odd enough dark was clear glass but full black drink. So them making a cheap shell over a cheapglass bottlw is so discusting.
12:30 Alicia: *making incredible/complete/absolute sense fit well over a minute*
Me: my goodness, she’s absolutely perfect in every conceivable way. Her fiancé is the luckiest f8cking bastard
What's funny about he Toilet paper bit is that, not only did he wrote that months before Covid hit, but that he actually made videos talking about shit that happened during Covid where the toilet paper thing is mentioned.
The videos are his "Tales or the Varus" and i highly recommend them.
44:10 - I personally got more of “Shake it, bake it, move it around!” kinda vibe.
I'd highly suggest looking up the Fallout Storyteller. It explains the lore of Fallout, but as if its being told in universe. Almost like you're sitting at a camp fire, listening to someone tell a tale of a person or group from the other side of the wasteland. Plus the Storyteller's voice is so cool.
Still early in the video, but just had to comment: Seeing Alicia go as buggy as Fallout 76 upon seeing the tight booties on screen - to the point where she had to completely factory reset to remember what she was talking about - is perhaps not the single most unquestionably relatable moment I've ever had with a Vtuber, but it certainly earned a high spot on the list.
So happy to see you react to this one, especially after having watched the No Man's Sky video for comparison. It really makes you appreciate just how genuine and passionate the team was about that game despite all the crap that went wrong, and reinforces WHY they've become so respected in the gaming community. Especially with how they didn't even hold updates and DLC behind a paywall, even when we're looking at updates that a lot of companies would have been charging easily $10-20+ for.
Literally drooled out an audible "yaaaay" as I refreshed and saw this!
you're so cute!! haha this comment made me smile
I just wanted to let you know that I have binged like all of your reaction vids on this channel and am about to make the jump to your other one. You’re so much fun to listen to!
BTW, would you ever consider reacting to Defunctland’s stuff? His Disney Channel Theme docu is kind of a masterpiece, even though it’s feature-length! The recent Garfield Dark Ride one is good too!
“Where did they go wrong?”
Oh you sweet summer child just you wait
Time to watch 76 crumble all over again!
It never gets old.
I never played it, but I got so much entertainment out of keeping up with the news surrounding the release and subsequent parade of failure.
Seeing this again I only now realize how much it must've sucked for the person that lost the level 78 account because I have a level 75 character and 180 hours in the game
Fun fact, you can dispute ANY charge on your card when buying games online, if the seller refuses a refund, as fraudulent, and the seller can't do anything about it. As long as it's within your banks dispute timeframe, the seller can't do anything to stop it.
Only 13 mins in and already love you, your style and what you have to say! Strait up facts. Keep up the grind.
:D thanks and welcome to the channel!’
@@aliciaxdeath thank you!
Unstoppable Moron Makes Nuclear Wasteland Noticeably Worse| Fallout New Vegas, by TheRussianbadger
also, if you're an empath, you can play that in 76. There's a mutation that makes it so you take more damage, but everyone else in your party takes less damage.
As for game prices. Yeah, it's fine if they are priced to make their money with the product, but part of the big issue was 'hey, we paid for a collectors edition, didn't get what we paid for, and the game went on sale almost a week after release.'
43:58 Skyrim Gamer Poop moment. Those, get weird, and raunchy. They're also short.
I was sooo gamer excited for this video and now it's here! What a fun gamer reaction as always, Alicia!
I also let out a gamer giggle when you got legit distracted by cartoon booty and lost your train of thought.
Also, personally I like when you pause and give us a small gamer rant since you've pretty much always got something interesting to say. Added bonus if it actually has to do with games since I love hearing your insights into that whole world.
Thanks for another fun video! Hope you have a great gamer day! 🙂
I think I'll have to watch the No Man's Sky video again since that one at least has a happy ending.
The funniest part is that the same people who got sucked in by this game will pre order the next bethesda game and go through it again
"How do you release a game in that state? This is Bethesda!"
Me: Yeah... yeah, that's exactly how.
It's wonderful watching you slowly appreciate Bethesda's wild incompetence on this project in almost every conceivable front.
Gamer words indeed.
Tbf when you mentioned crunch, it reminded me of a Miyamoto quote. "A delayed game is eventually good, a bad game is bad forever." I think that it has largely been part of Nintendo's prerogative since even before Iwata's passing.
this, aside from pokemon, which is a matrioska of dirigential meddling and overriding directors, all nintendo first part releases has tried to be as close a possible to full vision as they get, and actually using the first-day-patch as a bug-fixing tool rather than as extra development
Notable exceptions coming to mind: Duke Nukem Forever, and Star Citizen. Evidence that yes, while delaying by a year or two if necessary is always a good idea, ending up stuck into a development hell where you end up remaking stuff over and over, is just as bad as rushing the game. Or in other words, as for everything in life, balance is the key: don't rush, but don't take forever either.
This is why Nintendo delayed Tears of the Kingdom for over a year just to polish their game
What's that Todd? You're out of the freezer, and it's time to get hyped again? STARFIELD!?
My brother bought the game for both if us, as it released near our birthdays. He even got himself the special edition. I don't think he has ever been the same.
On suggestions, IH has yet another channel called Storymode where he goes through the plot of video games you might enjoy, since they are the same energy and have the ad time we have come to enjoy. Highly recommended!
I’m not sure if ya do these kinds of suggestions, but I’d like to see more people react to the Sabaton/Yarnhub animated story videos, especially “The First Soldier” about Albert Serevin Roche) and “Lady of the Dark” (about Milunka Savic). The videos give absolutely awesome info on the stories of forgotten war heroes
"But this is Bethesda!"
Yes Alicia, *that's exactly the problem.*
true 😆
Small note: developers don’t get residuals/royalties from game purchases, so the “I’m willing to pay more for a game so devs get paid” is a lie. The developers already got paid for their work, since they’re usually salaried workers.
Pausing and commenting on the video is the proper way to transform it.
Do not copy twitch streamers who just sit and watch entire videos without pausing or commenting, they're not transforming it, it's essentially just stealing. They're making use of the nonexistent copyright ID detection system on twitch. It will come to bite them in the ass eventually, but either way the way you're doing it is correct. The pausing Andy meme is as stupid as the people who meme'd it into existence.
this is such a MASSIVE W of a comment. I appreciate you
@@aliciaxdeath The reason I am coming to reaction videos like yours, is to see a creator I respect experience something I enjoy and have their own take on it. The more someone has to add, the better.
@@aliciaxdeath proper transforming of content aside, I like listening to your commentary on several levels. You offer a lot of insight and I find you very relatable as a gamer. Extra points for being a part of the FGC. Mad respect.
Very happy to see this reaction, but I really hope overly-excited fans don’t put you off IH for good. He is one of the best, but I am also looking forward to the reactions to other awesome content creators this platform has to offer.
:D naw everyone is super supportive so I don't feel pressured or anything. I'm just having a good time and recording what I feel like. So we all good. Thanks for caring
@@aliciaxdeath as long you don't skip the ads they may be happy
Bethesda: "It's not a bug, it's a feature!"
"That was probably pretty dumb, huh?"
-Yes Man
BREATHE ALICIA BREATHE. It's OK, mean Tod cannot hurt you anymore
29:50 my room looks worse. It looked even worse a few weeks ago, but then I started doing exactly as what was said (kind of, at the time I could only manage one-two full sized garbage bags one day each week, my anxiety over starting was that bad). Looks better than it did but I still have a ways to go Thanks for the words of encouragement!
this is the game that caused the average person to stop giving big game companies the benefit of doubt
Fallout 76 and No Man's Sky are basically stories with the same premise.
No Man's Sky is the story with the Good Ending.
This is the story with the Bad Ending.
A fantastic series to watch would be OverlySarcasticProduction's (OSP) A journey to the west. Fantastic animation, funny retelling of a classic, and it shows how the artstyle evolved, considering they release 1 episode a year of this
Seconded. OSP is truly excellent.
honestly most OSP vids are worth a watch ^^
I feel like they hired a consultant and did the exact opposite of what the person said. The consultant could've made a fortune though lol
I really needed that pep talk at the halfway mark. My room looks like shit stacked on a crack den and my self esteem has been going to shit because of it. Thanks for that.
Thank you for talking about Game Devs releasing games after fine tuning and utilizing time! More companies need to follow suit. New Subscriber.
Nice to see more Internet Historian, and one of my favorites at that!
I posted this before on another video but if you ever want to take a look at the humorous animated history side of youtube then you might like Overly Sarcastic Productions, SideQuest, Extra History, History Matters, or the very popular Oversimplified. They're all really good and really interesting to watch.
I second all of these and add "the history of japan I guess" by Bill something. It's insane and crazy accurate
God I love the reactions to Internet Historian! Definitely once you cover most of the main channel start into Incognito Mode (his 2nd channel). Also another great channel to react to is Michael Reeves he’s a robotics/ programmer/engineer that uses his skills to create the most absurd and cursed things and he’s absolutely hilarious with great editing. A great start with him is either I Built a Laser Baby, I Built a Surgery Robot, I Taught my Gold Fish to Trade Stocks or Teaching a Robot Dog to Pee Beer
Or even his 3rd channel "Storymode"
"How do you launch this? This is Bethesda we're talking about." Apparently Alicia is unaware of Bethesda's infamy for releasing games in a buggy, broken and unfinished state then leaving it up to the modders to fix the game for them.
"It's Bethesda!" Yep! Exactly why it had so many problems. Since Morrowind, Bethesda introduced open modding format, that basically let them release unfinished games for players to mod into shape. Let me remind everyone that they didn't patch a game breaking bug in Skyrim, that was known since day one, until the SECOND remaster of the game (Esbern's door in Riften). They didn't have to - there is a community patch for that. And then they release an online game that you can't mod... shocker :D
