The “murder at first sight” thing is something Rust does well. Now, Rust has it’ share of problems (including to an extent the murder at first sight thing) but it adds this fear factor that when your out wandering those wastes looking for scrap, someone else might be be doing the same thing, and they might want *your* scrap too.
DayZ is the same, I've never been more stresses then a shot ringing out wandering down the road as a bullet skims off the ground, and I run for cover panicking as to who is shooting me and where are they? From where? How many there are? It's a great experience that breaks the exploration and zombies with serious tension.
I’m a huge Marvel fan and cannot think of what movie/series you’re referring to, and it’s kinda driving me nuts. My only thought is WandaVision, but I’d say cerebral drama before romcom in that case.
Criticizing the youtubers for complaining about the game before it came out or during the beta doesnt work because the release was still fucked. Almost every anticipated problem ended up coming true on release.
The B.E.T.A. came out like a week ahead of the main release, no way they could've fixed a fraction of the game's issues in that time. The B.E.T.A. was a marketing tool, not a real live-test like a beta should be. So they were quite right to complain imo.
^This. Only one correction to make, though: it wasn't a "beta". The word "beta" nowadays doesn't mean what it used to mean, the meaning has changed pretty substantially in recent years and not in a good way.
Fallout 1: Where's my water chip? Fallout 2: Where's the Enclave? Fallout 3: Where's my dad? Fallout NV: WHERE'S THE F*%#ER THAT SHOT ME?!? Fallout 4: Where's my son? Fallout 76: WHERE'S MY REFUND?!?
Yeah there's some lag spikes, but most of the glitches are easy to fix, just hop out of power armor, or reboot the world. It's not perfect, but when I see people interact with glitches and bugs, it's like they try and make them worse, instead of backtracking and solving it. But whatever, I've easily gotten $60 worth outta the game.
My problem with 76 is that it is online. The reason I play fallout is because it's a fun singleplayer game. I can't afford good internet, which makes it very hard for me to play online games.
Michael Threedk I live in the Eastern US and I have horrible internet, I have to use the hotspot on my phone to do anything online and even then it is only good for 15 gigs a month so I can’t download anything usually.
@@XVegeraX im in a 3rd world country and getting internet is not that hard. Can be very expensive if you live out of town though. It's South Africa btw.
6:07 There seems to be a big misunderstanding with Fallout 4's setting. No, the trees are not dead. There's leave all over the ground, and they obviously didn't last 200 years. Everyone who complains about Fallout 4's ecosystem still being dead has obviously never looked at the date on their pip-boy. It's autumn. The trees have shed their leaves and gone dormant, but are still alive. Trees being alive in Fallout is not groundbreaking, or lore breaking. We see them in Far Harbor and New Vegas too.
Except that 1) the trees in the pre-war intro still have leaves on them even though it's autumn and 2) trees don't shed their leaves all at once. Realistically there would still be plenty of trees with leaves on them, even in the dead of winter. Bethesda was clearly going for a generic post-apocalyptic look Fallout 3 and 4 and wanted the trees to look as if the bombs had just dropped the day before.
Imo Read Dead Redemption 2 killed most of the hype for Fallout 76, and for people to transition from such a quality game to 76 could explain such hatred towards it.
Its possible. Then again, A LOT of red flags popped up when they announced Fallout 76 at E3. Not on steam Always online No npc No mods. This game was doomed to fail.
The criticism of the fact that people are reviewing it based on the beta would be vaild... ...if the beta didn't start ONE MONTH BEFORE RELEASE WHEN IT WAS TOO LATE TO CHANGE ANYTHING OF SUBSTANCE ABOUT THE GAME!
The problem was that people were judging on things like server instability (which was fixed because of the beta, for most people anyway). Any things like criticism on content, cannot be argued. FO76 is lacking lol
UpIsNotJump wasn't saying that they had no right to review it the way they did, or that Fallout 76 *isn't* lacking at release, his point was that it's incredibly annoying to create really negative reviews over a game that *is not out yet and that is annoying.*
@@matthewlinus4691 That point would be valid if it weren't for the fact that the beta was entirely representative of the final product. That being the case it's entirely valid to review the beta and criticise it because that's what the final product will look like. If the beta had come out earlier and had not been representative of the final product then any reviews of it would not necessarily be valid since any issues would be fixable. But when the beta period is less than a month before release and it is as garbage as it was, any reviews are perfectly valid.
The big mistake here is that New Vegas was built by Obsidian, which has members of the dev crew from the original Fallout games, and Fallout 3 was made back when Bethesda still gave at least half of a fuck about consumers and the quality of their games.
The plants fix works because plants would survive and, depending on the species, thrive in a nuclear apocalypse. West Coast Fallout usually takes place in deserts and has appropriate desert foliage, but New Vegas was never afraid to show that one of the northernmost regions you could visit, Jacobstown, had green trees and was basically Bruma.
As a fan I respect your opinion, and thank you for the LOLs. I have to disagree on a couple of points though. Without the NPCs I haven’t cared about the quests. I know they’re already dead. There’s no one to save, or to stop enslaving people. Nothing in this game has consequence. The graphics are *ok* but they’re not good. They were fine in 2015 but in 2018 they’re frankly below par - especially for a game from a AAA studio. I agree the empty atmosphere is great. I like exploring for hours on my own. But it’d be nice to find a settlement of traders and quest givers that aren’t robots and holotapes. Who gives a rats ass?
In my opinion to fix the graphics they need to use higher resolution, more detailed textures. Seriously, the landscape textures look about as good as Fallout New Vegas, and what has been the number 1 improvement to making EVERY Bethesda game look better since Morrowind? downloading higher resolution, more detailed textures from modders that somehow are smaller in size and actually improve performance. As with the NPCs, I agree with him on a lot of the points, however I feel that having NO NPCS AT ALL was a huge mistake. Okay, sure, its actually pretty good wondering the wastes alone, but as you said with your comment, no NPCs makes me care far, far less about doing the quests. Like, why bother doing it? To please a robot acting on behalf of people who are already dead? Having no people in the game for a start massively cuts down on the type of quests they can even make, and its resulted in the majority of them being fetch quests, and then you're not even fetching the things for anybody who cares, because they're dead already. Even when the quests are good, they're forced to have so little variety in them through their game design choices that they get boring fast. It just becomes the same quest over and over and over but pretending it isn't. I mean, if they want to keep the whole "every human you meet is a real person" thing they could at least put the player in contact with a living human over a radio or something.
favorite quest in fallout 4 (haven't played it that much) the one where you get trapped in the lab and have to find out what happened to everyone, thinking the lead scientist was an asshole, when really he was trying to save everyone favorite quest(?) in skyrim. The lighthouse when you start reading about the family living there, and they're slowly taken by the falmor until all that was left was the father and daughter, and find the daughter dead with a knife, and note about how the father wanted her to kill herself so she wouldn't get tortured. None of these had any npc's, and they were better for it.
By that last point, I thing it would be a great add on to the future of the game. Some little settlements or some caravans around, it sounds possible to add to the game.
As someone who loves the game, I agree. Ignoring the fact that my game has crashed 4 times while playing today, it is a lot of fun. The graphics are a joke though. The lighting helps but Bethesda clearly needs a new game engine. It is hard to dispute that. The fact that running the game above 60 fps breaks it is just silly.
That's not how life works. If a game is still being worked on, it's a beta. Companies don't finish a game and sit on their asses for weeks, waiting for money to roll in. It would be a demo if it was a short and very restricted downloadable single-player experience to give you a taste of the full game.
@@Denisowator A beta implies that it's a work in progress, and that the input taken is going to be used in development. What the fuck could they do in two weeks? Apparently not very much given the state of the game to this day. In terms of larger scale developers, betas are not much more than glorified demos, a teaser to get people invested in the game, been that ways for years.
@@fellower Planning is a big part of game development. How do you except a company of hundreds of employees to make major changes to a game in two weeks? The communication between them to get everyone on the same page would take a few weeks on its own. They most likely use the two weeks to gather feedback and be able to push out patches shortly after release. If this wasn't the case, no game would ever improve from its predecessors. Trial and error isn't as powerful as community feedback, and I can easily google fallout 76 and get tons of videos that talk about suggested implementations and changes. The company could use these in the future. Furthermore they could be doing some last minute testing. Just like how people read an important email they're about to send, ten times over before getting anywhere near the send button.
@@Denisowator ummm, no... beta release and game devs ability to progress with their game designs are not interconnected... beta stage is when you can test out game mechanics that you can change, like add human npc's, change appearance of enemies, redesign areas, change lighting or textures... two weeks before the release , the game is finished and ready to ship, no point in releasing a "beta", where you can only change stuff, that you could change after full release...
@@sFde46 I don't mean to be rude, but I can't understand what you're saying because of the weak sentence structure. I see 3 sentences in that entire paragraph, each with too many commas.
Personally I highly disagree with the no NPCs thing. I have never once in any Bethesda game ever gave a shit about any lore building notes or audio tapes. An NPC with dialog and facial features is 1000x better than any note. I can empathize with them more, I can understand who they are by what they wear. The world feels so much like an actual world with the NPCs doing their thing. 76 doesn't feel like a post apocalyptic world, it feels like a video game.
Quinn_Sxcrotes there are no NPCs because it’s an online game, the argument “it’s an empty game” only works if you play it by yourself. Seriously how can people not see their own hypocrisy.

@@DonkeyWork420 "game designed for multiplayer" didn't Todd Howard himself say that you could play solo?

It doesn't feel real or even tangible.
@@DonkeyWork420 Here's the thing though: there are plenty of online games with NPCs. Even Destiny, which a lot of people hate, has NPCs. World of Warcraft? NPCs. Also, Todd Howard claimed that you would still be able to have fun if you played it by yourself. Playing with friends is supposed to be optional.

The whole “game isn’t out yet” argument is ridiculous. In order for actual changes to be done after a beta, the beta should be at least a few months before the release. For bethesda, maybe 6 months just because of how slow they are at doing things. It was impossible for them to fix anything with a beta two weeks before release.
do you really thing bethesda could/would fix any bug in 6 months when they have more than that before re-releasing skyrim on multiple systems and still a buggy mess?
Forsaken Pumpkin Bethesda literally sold the game for 60 dollars and packaged it as a full game. Maybe if Bethesda released “Fallout 76 Early Access” then it wouldn’t have been a problem, but Bethesda knows they will still make money even if they put minimal effort.
I don't see how the show is selling out, in terms of production it has almost nothing to do with the game aside from Bethesda signing off on the rights to adapt it. And I'm pretty sure the producers are fans because there is a lot of imagery in their previous show Westworld which is clearly inspired by FO4, particularly the creation of synths.
Thing is that theybare selling it trough false marketing...thats what pissing most people, is very lazy, is very rushed, is full price, has DLC already

Sorry you leaned way too hard into the "dont review a game in beta" point. Games in beta now-a-days don't change at all between the beta and the release. The game reviews are completely valid as long as they point out clearly that its the beta in case the game gets reviews after its patched... AFTER RELEASE!
@@Dee-Dee It wasn't even early access. HOW CAN YOU HAVE EARLY ACCESS A FUCKING WEEK BEFORE THE GAME COMES OUT?! YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO FIX SHIT. And indeed they didn't fix shit. It was a pay to pain demo to take more money before people figured out it was shite.
PB&J Goodness Even if it’s satire, it’s pretty disingenuous to just tell us “it was a beta it was okay” Because as we expected, the game was basically the same as the beta.
Yeah, Normally it is a dumb idea to trust in early access or beta reviews because they don't reflect the finished product. But let's do ourselves the favor, and not pretend that the 76 beta was actually a beta. It was activated a week before the game came out, and access to it was limited to a pre-order bonus. It wasn't a beta, early access, or even a demo. It was a sales pitch that allowed Bethesda to stress test it's servers, confuse day one buyers about which version was being reviewed, and prevent any early reviews holding legitimacy. Remember, Bethesda remains king of underhanded marketing. Lest we forget dishonored 2's literally non-functional PC port that critics were not given access to review copies of until 24 hours before the game came out. Fallout 76 *was* a fully priced game that stole previous files so hard that the A.I. for the bat things that are thinly veiled skyrim dragons *still have the skyrim file names.* It was always clear this was never going to be anything other than a low budget cash in. The entire game arose because a recently acquired studio previously known for a hero shooter that never actually got released, and Doom (2016)'s widely panned multiplayer was given fallout 4 and asked to see if they could retrofit Id's netcode to work on the creation engine. The complications of the creation engine and the inexperience of studio show. Client side verification, frame rate tied physics, no network encryption. These aren't just things that can be patched. Even worse, these aren't just things anyone with a sane concept of online game development *do.* Let alone to release to an audience that has been modding the game on such a fundamental level that they introduce new physics tools to the engine just to make their tit mods bounce better. I can't assume incompetence because that would require a lack of intelligence that would make it hard to do fundamental math, which only leaves the knowing apathy.
@@legion999 go check it out. The npc's themselves are separate but the A.I. pulls from the same file as the skyrim dragons, which is why they plopped the entire file in. Even has stuff for the dragon bone material in there.
@@legion999 Yup even the final boss of the game literally flies, moves about, and attacks just like a skyrim dragon, even Angry Joe pointed that out in his review of Fallout 76, but to make it harder did they add challenging mechanics? nope, did they add dynamic phases? nope, they just gave the boss an absolute ton of HP as Bethesdas idea of making something "harder" is... #ADDMOREHITPOINTS
I thinking reviewing technical issues of the beta is perfectly justifiable. It was like a week before the release, so there was basically nothing they could’ve changed within that time.
Exactly, that was one of the main issues with this vid, that this guy just didn't understand how those people were foreseeing what F76 would be like on release since the release was very close to the beta, and the beta was in a dreadful state and so is the actual game to this day.
"its not even out yet! and people are judging it!" Well are betas from AAA studios different enough from full releases to justify not reviewing the beta? no no todd.
It's kind of weird to constantly mention people talking about the game and the problems with it before it came out, on a video that is up after it came out, and which was still heavily criticized after release for technical and other issues.
@Forsaken Pumpkin You really are not an intelligent fellow, are you? I could barely read that mess of words you call sentences. See this folks? This is what Fallout 76's defenders look like. Too stupid to understand what they're even saying.
I feel like this kid from 'acktually' meme, but in mentioned raider encounter in Fallout 1, if you have high luck and/or charisma, raider leader would mistake you for the spirit of his father. Father that he killed in order to become raider leader himself. So you can basically say 'boo' and raider leader runs away in panic, along with his mates. So you can resolve this encounter without a single bullet. Best part is - I didn't know about it, I just decided to make luck/charisma build - and stumbled upon this third option
Bold move, dropping a video on FO76 after I've already seen Angry Joe, SkillUp, ACG and LGR's takes on it. But your marketing strategy of being consistently and extremely entertaining got me to click on it anyway. That's what marketing strategy means, right..?
He doesn't advertise the video, outside of the video itself.... Question is... Can a market strategy just be high quality content... Don't think so.... Or maybe... WELP! there goes my diploma:(
I was so happy when I heard they were going to make a game about my constantly ignored home state that people forget exist. Then it becomes the most infamously shitty game of the 21st century.
@@jacksonelh No. it was a couple of weeks at a push. The last beta ended a couple of days before release. It was just early access like EA Origin Access for Anthem.
@ThePlagued Doctor You need to take your head out of your ass and stop shilling. Bethesda deserved all the criticism they got. The game was a buggy boring mess. Releasing it in the state it was is not acceptable. No one is hating Bethesda because they're Bethesda, but because the state is was released in. And of course all the anti consumer shit they've done the past few years.
@ThePlagued Doctor >Predicts 76 will be shit >76 turns out to be shit "HOW UNRULY AND UNREASONABLE GOOD SIR, SUCH ELITISM!" Oh, and did you really try to say criticizing Blades is a bad thing? Jesus.
god I think preston was such a great addition to the railroad and the missions he gave were amazing especially that one were you had to retrieve mini-nukes for the father guy.
Great video, but I generally don't agree with you. The game's a mess on a technical level and it should've been sold as a 20$ early access game and not a full 60$ release.
i actually think you agree with him because he isnt disagreeing with it being buggy mess and well i don't remember if he talked about prise , you know maybe i completely forget what was in video i am not sure anymore as si write this , kill me
Also in regards to the techincal issues complaint it isn't beta problems it is issues that have been around since the earliest uses of the engine and still haven't been fixed.
If you look on key sites, you can get the game fore 20-30 €. If you dont buy everything on release and wait a bit, you usually get a better deal on anything.
Absolutely love your channel. A follow up video for Fall-out 76 would be great. The game has changed alot since the beginning and has grown into something pretty great in its own way.
Great video but I don't understand why you or anyone else can defend that sad excuse of a "Beta" that came out a handful of weeks before the full release and featured the complete game, though. They can say it's a stress test and in progress build but they can't fix that many major issues in that time. It's indefensible and a terrible marketing scheme to get people to pre-order.
Did you play the Beta? I did, and found that a lot of the major, game-breaking issues got fixed by day one of release. People ALWAYS forget how much the day one patch actually does in any game.
If the beta was that bad, and nothing changed, and people pre-ordered it still, maybe we can't fully put the blame on Bethesda. Jeez, TB is probably rolling in his grave from the incredible lack of consumer responsibility on this one.
@@Draconic74 Rip TB but I think its pretty clear with the fact that the game was $35 for about a week straight on Amazon (and $40 elsewhere) just a week after release that the game is not selling well. The consumers have done their job and you can tell by Bethesda's ineptitude as of the past few days.
NightRogue Yeah this part just really confused me. Shaders and lighting that make a game with bad graphics look good isn’t a new concept at all. Most of his examples of the “beauty” of the game. Were of stuff in the distance. If you get close the illusion ends and you realize it has the same graphical details as Fallout 4.
It devastated me that this game is not what I thought it would be from the trailers. I think if it was single player like all the other ones it could be better. Man this Game would be so pretty and West Virginia is just a nice place for a game.
their product is not worth 60 dollars. They should not have been deceitful to their consumers. They should be putting out a much higher quality content.
Think about that, the bags are shitty and they false advertise a product, the helmet and bag. So as an apology they gave 5 bucks to buy things inside the game, but you can't buy the canvas bag inside the game either.
@Forsaken Pumpkin Beth expects you to pay $60 for a game that still retains the same bugs that were reported to them in Fallout 4 because of how many assets it reuses. When you ask the consumer full price for something that clearly needed delayed to ensure the game was at least up to a tolerable standard of quality for a multi-billion dollar company? Then the consumer is well within their right to be entitled to a far better working product. This is completely ignoring the other issues like the canvas bag being a bait and switch, Beth's honeypot response to it, the beta just being a market tool, and their lack of communication altogether. The only one here that's fully entitled in the context you're giving is you really. You're just projecting.
Fallout released >people played fallout Fallout 2 released >people played fallout 2 Fallout tactics released >people played fallout tactics fallout brotherhood of steel released >people still play fallout tactis and the other games Fallout 3 released >people play fallout 3 Fallout new vegas released >people play fallout new vegas Fallout 4 released >some played some stay in vegas Fallout 76 released >people play fallout 4
The beta wasn't a stress test or a way to collect feedback about bugs, it was a glorified demo meant to sell preorders. Criticism from a "beta" weeks before release is more than justified.
So... B.E.T.A. being so close to release, is clearly not a beta. It's at best a stress test of the servers, and there was no excuse for the obvious glaring issues with bugs. I agree the ranting is and was excessive, but still. Other than that, yeah. You're video is still as good as all the other videos you do, and I will continue to enjoy your content.
Meanwhile, I'm put off by the fact that the first place this guy found in Fallout 1 was the raider camp. Quite an unfortunate experience to come out of the gate with for veering slightly more south than the game originally intended you to. And without a character that could talk his way out of "join or die" to boot.
@Forsaken Pumpkin Bruh the "Clickbait" youtubers where riding this game's dick saying "its just a beta" until everyone was universally shitting on this game. so if anything, the youtubers who got flown out to West virginia are the bandwagoners, desperately trying to save face and not appear to be a bugthesda shill.
It's amazing how this guy always ends up shilling Bethasda games, even when the game is generally agreed by both critics and users to be by far the worst full priced game of the year. It's like he always sprinkles some of the more harmless but popular complaints towards Bethasda games but then massively bombard the videos about "how fun these games are", even making freaking montages about it. I mean come on, FO76 is an extremely low effort asset flip from Fallout4. Calling it even an okay or average game is an insult to the gaming industry. Also, criticizing the ""beta"" testers for complaining about the game is just ridiculous. These AAA "beta"s are not actual betas anymore but just marketing demos, considering how close they are to release date and how little the devs can actually fix. Even talking about the lack of NPCs like if it was a pro of the game, since "fallout4 npcs sucked anyway"
I understand that most modern day AAA "Betas" are just glorified game demos, but holy shit if any studio needed to do an actual beta it was Bethesda on this game, multiplayer on fallout 4's engine needs a bit more trialing then just a "server stress test"
@Ostrich160 It was 2 weeks before launch. Character progression remained It wasn't a beta. They fixed nothing. I played The Division beta, that was a real beta. They stress tested the servers and it was some time before the game came out. They fixed most of the bugs reported and once it was over they reset progress and gave participants a shiny gun and a patch as thanks.
Ostrich160 Obviously they didn't fix nothing. But look at reviews of the game. A very Very large amount of bugs present in the FO76 Beta are still present in the released game. And they aren't minor bugs. Bugs like enemy health not decreasing, nukes crashing the servers, T-pose enemies, etc. That's not okay for any AAA game.
Ostrich160 So your logic is "Since it doesn't happen all the time it's minor"? A bug that makes an enemy Invincible should never happen. Even if they aren't major bugs, you call them minor. In which case what did that 60GB patch fix? Because all the bugs which are encountered frequently were still there. Also fire 2 nukes at once. Servers crash very regularly. This is after the promise of "You will never see a server"
Actually the sixty gig patch was much smaller, bethesda is simply terrible at updating as instead of adjusting folders within the game they deleted them and forced you to redownload. My problem is they released a glorified beta for sixty dollars than added microtransactions to rub salt in the wounds.
Yes, because a Beta released a week or 2 prior to the full games release is totally going to change that drastically or have the time to make any of the fixes and take all the feedback... It's a glorified demo. Destiny did a similar thing. And it's not like 76 did anything to prove all those videos on the Beta wrong, so it hardly showed them they were wrong. Also in regards to the NPC situation, it just feels like "No one likes our NPC's? Fine, we just won't have any!" Which feels like a lazy way of dealing with their problem instead of, you know, hiring better writers. The games a bit of a mess where you either make your own fun or have fun with friends which isn't saying much. Not worth the $60, especially not with it being a technical mess. Also comparing the price of a multiplayer online game to an MMO feels a bit disingenuous. MMO servers hold a lot more people at any given time and update with additional content added to the game, usually following on with each expansion. So your sub money is basically funding the servers and additional content the games add ontop. I don't think 76 is going to get additional content of that level outside of cosmetics they have micro-transactions for anyway.
@fenrif Full of microtransactions you mean the free dlc and the atom shop that DOESN'T need your money. Also you can earn them in game so based on your quite shit reasoning fallout 76 and vegas had similar launches.
It was on beta shortly before it was released officially, and it seems not much changed between these points. And with the way the game was marketed, particularly by Todd Howard himself, we expected the game to be a big step up from Fallout 4. It’s just Fallout 4’s exact engine and assets, but with a lighting mod.
EVERYONE was on beta "shortly before release", it only came out 2 weeks before the "full release". I haven't played the game and don't intend to, because i've watched a bunch of reviews and everything I've seen makes it look like Fallout 4 with a bunch of broken mods installed.
Fallout New Vegas just re-uses the assets from Fallout 3, and that game is fantastic. The whole re-used assets thing isn't much of a point against the game with that in mind imo.
@@melancholyentertainment Yeah, except the reason there were so many reused assets was because Bethesda pushed Obsidian to make a game in a year. Bethesda had THREE years to make this garbage, and it's literally Fallout 4 with multiplayer. At least Fallout New Vegas has a different set of code, but Fallout 76's code is the exact same as Fallout 4.
@@melancholyentertainment It is when it doesn't add competent game design and amazing writing like NW did. Not to mention, Bethesda forced the studio to make it in an absurd amount of time.
Personally still enjoying it but can also see why people hate it. I've been so lucky in not having any bugs though. Well except one dog with a huge neck lol.

The “murder at first sight” thing is something Rust does well.

Criticizing the youtubers for complaining about the game before it came out or during the beta doesnt work because the release was still fucked. Almost every anticipated problem ended up coming true on release.
The B.E.T.A. came out like a week ahead of the main release, no way they could've fixed a fraction of the game's issues in that time. The B.E.T.A. was a marketing tool, not a real live-test like a beta should be. So they were quite right to complain imo.
^This. Only one correction to make, though: it wasn't a "beta". The word "beta" nowadays doesn't mean what it used to mean, the meaning has changed pretty substantially in recent years and not in a good way.

6:07 There seems to be a big misunderstanding with Fallout 4's setting. No, the trees are not dead. There's leave all over the ground, and they obviously didn't last 200 years. Everyone who complains about Fallout 4's ecosystem still being dead has obviously never looked at the date on their pip-boy.
It's autumn. The trees have shed their leaves and gone dormant, but are still alive. Trees being alive in Fallout is not groundbreaking, or lore breaking. We see them in Far Harbor and New Vegas too.
yes exactly. the trees would be mutated but they would grow back.
In fallout 4 didn't the bombs drop Halloween night or right before?
I mean, the area around Pripyat is a forest. Plants bounce back fast.
@@buritobomb october 23rd, it's mentioned in new vegas too
Except that 1) the trees in the pre-war intro still have leaves on them even though it's autumn and 2) trees don't shed their leaves all at once. Realistically there would still be plenty of trees with leaves on them, even in the dead of winter. Bethesda was clearly going for a generic post-apocalyptic look Fallout 3 and 4 and wanted the trees to look as if the bombs had just dropped the day before.

Well done on your 'Original' comment here is a gold star
I can't hear you over the outer worlds!
The criticism of the fact that people are reviewing it based on the beta would be vaild...
...if the beta didn't start ONE MONTH BEFORE RELEASE WHEN IT WAS TOO LATE TO CHANGE ANYTHING OF SUBSTANCE ABOUT THE GAME!
Wasnt it two weeks?
@@gytux0258 yeah, it came out 2 weeks ago. Idk if it's improved any, but I doubt it.
The problem was that people were judging on things like server instability (which was fixed because of the beta, for most people anyway). Any things like criticism on content, cannot be argued. FO76 is lacking lol
UpIsNotJump wasn't saying that they had no right to review it the way they did, or that Fallout 76 *isn't* lacking at release, his point was that it's incredibly annoying to create really negative reviews over a game that *is not out yet and that is annoying.*
@@matthewlinus4691 That point would be valid if it weren't for the fact that the beta was entirely representative of the final product. That being the case it's entirely valid to review the beta and criticise it because that's what the final product will look like. If the beta had come out earlier and had not been representative of the final product then any reviews of it would not necessarily be valid since any issues would be fixable. But when the beta period is less than a month before release and it is as garbage as it was, any reviews are perfectly valid.
The big mistake here is that New Vegas was built by Obsidian, which has members of the dev crew from the original Fallout games, and Fallout 3 was made back when Bethesda still gave at least half of a fuck about consumers and the quality of their games.
Satoru Kuroshiro why don’t we stop this circlejerk of Bethesda bad obsidian good. It’s inane and pointless
@@desmonian Dude, if you look at the track record both companies have had, you would understand why that "circle-jerk" as you call it exists.

Desmonian I mean.. OP did say Bethesda was good (was being the operative word) so...
Imo I’d rather have fun shooty bang bang than heavy story but new Vegas is a good game
The plants fix works because plants would survive and, depending on the species, thrive in a nuclear apocalypse. West Coast Fallout usually takes place in deserts and has appropriate desert foliage, but New Vegas was never afraid to show that one of the northernmost regions you could visit, Jacobstown, had green trees and was basically Bruma.

As a fan I respect your opinion, and thank you for the LOLs.
I have to disagree on a couple of points though.
Without the NPCs I haven’t cared about the quests. I know they’re already dead. There’s no one to save, or to stop enslaving people. Nothing in this game has consequence.
The graphics are *ok* but they’re not good. They were fine in 2015 but in 2018 they’re frankly below par - especially for a game from a AAA studio.
I agree the empty atmosphere is great. I like exploring for hours on my own. But it’d be nice to find a settlement of traders and quest givers that aren’t robots and holotapes. Who gives a rats ass?
In my opinion to fix the graphics they need to use higher resolution, more detailed textures. Seriously, the landscape textures look about as good as Fallout New Vegas, and what has been the number 1 improvement to making EVERY Bethesda game look better since Morrowind? downloading higher resolution, more detailed textures from modders that somehow are smaller in size and actually improve performance.
As with the NPCs, I agree with him on a lot of the points, however I feel that having NO NPCS AT ALL was a huge mistake. Okay, sure, its actually pretty good wondering the wastes alone, but as you said with your comment, no NPCs makes me care far, far less about doing the quests. Like, why bother doing it? To please a robot acting on behalf of people who are already dead? Having no people in the game for a start massively cuts down on the type of quests they can even make, and its resulted in the majority of them being fetch quests, and then you're not even fetching the things for anybody who cares, because they're dead already.
Even when the quests are good, they're forced to have so little variety in them through their game design choices that they get boring fast. It just becomes the same quest over and over and over but pretending it isn't.
I mean, if they want to keep the whole "every human you meet is a real person" thing they could at least put the player in contact with a living human over a radio or something.
favorite quest in fallout 4 (haven't played it that much) the one where you get trapped in the lab and have to find out what happened to everyone, thinking the lead scientist was an asshole, when really he was trying to save everyone
favorite quest(?) in skyrim. The lighthouse when you start reading about the family living there, and they're slowly taken by the falmor until all that was left was the father and daughter, and find the daughter dead with a knife, and note about how the father wanted her to kill herself so she wouldn't get tortured.
None of these had any npc's, and they were better for it.
By that last point, I thing it would be a great add on to the future of the game. Some little settlements or some caravans around, it sounds possible to add to the game.
As someone who loves the game, I agree. Ignoring the fact that my game has crashed 4 times while playing today, it is a lot of fun. The graphics are a joke though. The lighting helps but Bethesda clearly needs a new game engine. It is hard to dispute that. The fact that running the game above 60 fps breaks it is just silly.
Tom Hayes it seems like a game that comes from what you make of it
a beta released a couple weeks before the actual game is released isn't a beta.
It's a demo.
That's not how life works.
If a game is still being worked on, it's a beta. Companies don't finish a game and sit on their asses for weeks, waiting for money to roll in.
It would be a demo if it was a short and very restricted downloadable single-player experience to give you a taste of the full game.
@@Denisowator A beta implies that it's a work in progress, and that the input taken is going to be used in development. What the fuck could they do in two weeks? Apparently not very much given the state of the game to this day. In terms of larger scale developers, betas are not much more than glorified demos, a teaser to get people invested in the game, been that ways for years.
@@fellower Planning is a big part of game development. How do you except a company of hundreds of employees to make major changes to a game in two weeks? The communication between them to get everyone on the same page would take a few weeks on its own. They most likely use the two weeks to gather feedback and be able to push out patches shortly after release.
If this wasn't the case, no game would ever improve from its predecessors. Trial and error isn't as powerful as community feedback, and I can easily google fallout 76 and get tons of videos that talk about suggested implementations and changes. The company could use these in the future.
Furthermore they could be doing some last minute testing. Just like how people read an important email they're about to send, ten times over before getting anywhere near the send button.
@@Denisowator ummm, no... beta release and game devs ability to progress with their game designs are not interconnected... beta stage is when you can test out game mechanics that you can change, like add human npc's, change appearance of enemies, redesign areas, change lighting or textures... two weeks before the release , the game is finished and ready to ship, no point in releasing a "beta", where you can only change stuff, that you could change after full release...
@@sFde46 I don't mean to be rude, but I can't understand what you're saying because of the weak sentence structure. I see 3 sentences in that entire paragraph, each with too many commas.
Personally I highly disagree with the no NPCs thing. I have never once in any Bethesda game ever gave a shit about any lore building notes or audio tapes. An NPC with dialog and facial features is 1000x better than any note. I can empathize with them more, I can understand who they are by what they wear. The world feels so much like an actual world with the NPCs doing their thing. 76 doesn't feel like a post apocalyptic world, it feels like a video game.
Quinn_Sxcrotes there are no NPCs because it’s an online game, the argument “it’s an empty game” only works if you play it by yourself. Seriously how can people not see their own hypocrisy. A bitchy fallout elitist- *plays by himself on a game that’s suppose to be multiplayer* OMG this game has nothing I never felt more alone
@@DonkeyWork420 "game designed for multiplayer" didn't Todd Howard himself say that you could play solo? And I'm not complaining that it's empty, I'm complaining that it doesn't feel immersive, at no point in that game do I feel like I'm in a post apocalyptic world, I feel like I'm in a video game. It doesn't feel real or even tangible.
@@DonkeyWork420 Here's the thing though: there are plenty of online games with NPCs. Even Destiny, which a lot of people hate, has NPCs. World of Warcraft? NPCs. Also, Todd Howard claimed that you would still be able to have fun if you played it by yourself. Playing with friends is supposed to be optional.
@@DonkeyWork420 being multiplayer in no way means having no NPCs

The whole “game isn’t out yet” argument is ridiculous. In order for actual changes to be done after a beta, the beta should be at least a few months before the release. For bethesda, maybe 6 months just because of how slow they are at doing things. It was impossible for them to fix anything with a beta two weeks before release.
Do you really think Bethesda would change any major complaints? lol
do you really thing bethesda could/would fix any bug in 6 months when they have more than that before re-releasing skyrim on multiple systems and still a buggy mess?
As far as I remember, they have been porting Skyrim with the release bugs for years. That's crazy.
Forsaken Pumpkin I found the elitist!
Forsaken Pumpkin Bethesda literally sold the game for 60 dollars and packaged it as a full game. Maybe if Bethesda released “Fallout 76 Early Access” then it wouldn’t have been a problem, but Bethesda knows they will still make money even if they put minimal effort.
Bethesda is 100% selling out the franchise. Fallout Shelter, 76, and the upcoming Fallout tv show are clear signs of this.
I don't see how the show is selling out, in terms of production it has almost nothing to do with the game aside from Bethesda signing off on the rights to adapt it. And I'm pretty sure the producers are fans because there is a lot of imagery in their previous show Westworld which is clearly inspired by FO4, particularly the creation of synths.
How is Fallout shelter evidence of selling out? The game is definitely better than most games on the mobile game market. Even on PC it is still good
And now they're owned by a filthy mega-corp.
fallout shelter is a perfectly tolerable side game, ain't bad just basic
From the future where the TV show was good at least. Nothing else fallout relate en came out i think.

Sorry you leaned way too hard into the "dont review a game in beta" point. Games in beta now-a-days don't change at all between the beta and the release. The game reviews are completely valid as long as they point out clearly that its the beta in case the game gets reviews after its patched... AFTER RELEASE!
it wasnt even a beta. it was early access.
@@Dee-Dee It wasn't even early access. HOW CAN YOU HAVE EARLY ACCESS A FUCKING WEEK BEFORE THE GAME COMES OUT?! YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO FIX SHIT. And indeed they didn't fix shit.
It was a pay to pain demo to take more money before people figured out it was shite.
Can't you just enjoy the satire and the game for what it is (which is admittedly a bit of a buggy mess, but still fun)?
PB&J Goodness Even if it’s satire, it’s pretty disingenuous to just tell us “it was a beta it was okay”
Because as we expected, the game was basically the same as the beta.
Corvo Attano Yeah they don’t change *cough* Subnautica *cough* at all.
Yeah, Normally it is a dumb idea to trust in early access or beta reviews because they don't reflect the finished product. But let's do ourselves the favor, and not pretend that the 76 beta was actually a beta. It was activated a week before the game came out, and access to it was limited to a pre-order bonus. It wasn't a beta, early access, or even a demo. It was a sales pitch that allowed Bethesda to stress test it's servers, confuse day one buyers about which version was being reviewed, and prevent any early reviews holding legitimacy. Remember, Bethesda remains king of underhanded marketing. Lest we forget dishonored 2's literally non-functional PC port that critics were not given access to review copies of until 24 hours before the game came out.
Fallout 76 *was* a fully priced game that stole previous files so hard that the A.I. for the bat things that are thinly veiled skyrim dragons *still have the skyrim file names.* It was always clear this was never going to be anything other than a low budget cash in. The entire game arose because a recently acquired studio previously known for a hero shooter that never actually got released, and Doom (2016)'s widely panned multiplayer was given fallout 4 and asked to see if they could retrofit Id's netcode to work on the creation engine. The complications of the creation engine and the inexperience of studio show. Client side verification, frame rate tied physics, no network encryption. These aren't just things that can be patched. Even worse, these aren't just things anyone with a sane concept of online game development *do.* Let alone to release to an audience that has been modding the game on such a fundamental level that they introduce new physics tools to the engine just to make their tit mods bounce better. I can't assume incompetence because that would require a lack of intelligence that would make it hard to do fundamental math, which only leaves the knowing apathy.
"the bat things that are thinly veiled skyrim dragons still have the skyrim file names" You can't be serious...
@@legion999 go check it out. The npc's themselves are separate but the A.I. pulls from the same file as the skyrim dragons, which is why they plopped the entire file in. Even has stuff for the dragon bone material in there.
@@legion999 Yup even the final boss of the game literally flies, moves about, and attacks just like a skyrim dragon, even Angry Joe pointed that out in his review of Fallout 76, but to make it harder did they add challenging mechanics? nope, did they add dynamic phases? nope, they just gave the boss an absolute ton of HP as Bethesdas idea of making something "harder" is... #ADDMOREHITPOINTS

I thinking reviewing technical issues of the beta is perfectly justifiable. It was like a week before the release, so there was basically nothing they could’ve changed within that time.
Salty Pumpkin but there a bunch of reviews saying how bad the game is months before it came out. So yeah
Keyan Stoney yeah, those are pretty sus
Salty Pumpkin if they gave a shit then they could’ve delayed it for a few months but nah just release a broken game.
Sexy Boogalo Man yeah, they really needed to. But deadline and are deadlines, and usually the game designers don’t have much or any control over them
Exactly, that was one of the main issues with this vid, that this guy just didn't understand how those people were foreseeing what F76 would be like on release since the release was very close to the beta, and the beta was in a dreadful state and so is the actual game to this day.
The beta was 2 weeks before the games release. Calling it a beta is a joke
Literally.
I agree with you, it's the same with every beta for today game. Massive exampel was Battlefield beta's.
@@Fox_on_a_Rollercoaster Who cares? It's a fantastic game and by having the beta early we just got the game faster than we would have.
It was a stress test. Not a beta.
@@SiggyTundra No. Stop. They literally said "It's a beta". Even making a fucking joke out of the letters.
"its not even out yet! and people are judging it!"
Well are betas from AAA studios different enough from full releases to justify not reviewing the beta?
no
no todd.
Yes for some games
I thought it came out about two weeks ago?
There were videos out before the BETA went live.
That prison was actually really cool you can hear so voice logs on the terminals from the warden when he puts the bomb necklace on each prisoner
It's kind of weird to constantly mention people talking about the game and the problems with it before it came out, on a video that is up after it came out, and which was still heavily criticized after release for technical and other issues.
also never bringing up what those problems had pre-release even WERE
@Forsaken Pumpkin You really are not an intelligent fellow, are you? I could barely read that mess of words you call sentences.
See this folks? This is what Fallout 76's defenders look like. Too stupid to understand what they're even saying.
Forsaken Pumpkin Hey remember when huge games like witcher 3 and red dead redemption 2 came out so buggy they played like early access? Me neither.
That's a good point, OP. This guy is acting as if all the complaints turned out to be bunk after the game "officially" released.
@@rattango9819 i know it's bait i just like having an excuse to be salty.
I feel like this kid from 'acktually' meme, but in mentioned raider encounter in Fallout 1, if you have high luck and/or charisma, raider leader would mistake you for the spirit of his father. Father that he killed in order to become raider leader himself. So you can basically say 'boo' and raider leader runs away in panic, along with his mates. So you can resolve this encounter without a single bullet.
Best part is - I didn't know about it, I just decided to make luck/charisma build - and stumbled upon this third option
Or you can just go with an intelligence 1 build and "huh" or "duh" people all game long. Great fun.
Bold move, dropping a video on FO76 after I've already seen Angry Joe, SkillUp, ACG and LGR's takes on it.
But your marketing strategy of being consistently and extremely entertaining got me to click on it anyway.
That's what marketing strategy means, right..?
Jesse H. ...No cause you don't market your product ON THE PRODUCT

Then it becomes the most infamously shitty game of the 21st century.
If the beta came out a few months before release, those videos would've been unwarranted.
it did
@@jacksonelh No. it was a couple of weeks at a push. The last beta ended a couple of days before release. It was just early access like EA Origin Access for Anthem.
Animelytical the beta ending isnt the same as the beta beginning. They were making changes after every beta date.
@ThePlagued Doctor You need to take your head out of your ass and stop shilling. Bethesda deserved all the criticism they got. The game was a buggy boring mess. Releasing it in the state it was is not acceptable. No one is hating Bethesda because they're Bethesda, but because the state is was released in. And of course all the anti consumer shit they've done the past few years.

Great video, but I generally don't agree with you. The game's a mess on a technical level and it should've been sold as a 20$ early access game and not a full 60$ release.

i actually think you agree with him because he isnt disagreeing with it being buggy mess and well i don't remember if he talked about prise , you know maybe i completely forget what was in video i am not sure anymore as si write this , kill me
Also in regards to the techincal issues complaint it isn't beta problems it is issues that have been around since the earliest uses of the engine and still haven't been fixed.
ua-cam.com/video/O5b3MC5WET8/v-deo.html
If you look on key sites, you can get the game fore 20-30 €.
If you dont buy everything on release and wait a bit, you usually get a better deal on anything.
Absolutely love your channel. A follow up video for Fall-out 76 would be great. The game has changed alot since the beginning and has grown into something pretty great in its own way.
Great video but I don't understand why you or anyone else can defend that sad excuse of a "Beta" that came out a handful of weeks before the full release and featured the complete game, though. They can say it's a stress test and in progress build but they can't fix that many major issues in that time. It's indefensible and a terrible marketing scheme to get people to pre-order.
Did you play the Beta? I did, and found that a lot of the major, game-breaking issues got fixed by day one of release. People ALWAYS forget how much the day one patch actually does in any game.
If the beta was that bad, and nothing changed, and people pre-ordered it still, maybe we can't fully put the blame on Bethesda. Jeez, TB is probably rolling in his grave from the incredible lack of consumer responsibility on this one.
@@satansgayniece6246 and yet the game is still a hollow shell of an experience. Just saying...
@@Draconic74 Rip TB but I think its pretty clear with the fact that the game was $35 for about a week straight on Amazon (and $40 elsewhere) just a week after release that the game is not selling well.

Shaders and lighting that make a game with bad graphics look good isn’t a new concept at all.

What the hell are you talkin about? we were talkin about how it is 120 dollars here. @@naumsei6221
@@risewithoutfear1276 no it doesn't
@Forsaken Pumpkin Beth expects you to pay $60 for a game that still retains the same bugs that were reported to them in Fallout 4 because of how many assets it reuses. When you ask the consumer full price for something that clearly needed delayed to ensure the game was at least up to a tolerable standard of quality for a multi-billion dollar company? Then the consumer is well within their right to be entitled to a far better working product.
This is completely ignoring the other issues like the canvas bag being a bait and switch, Beth's honeypot response to it, the beta just being a market tool, and their lack of communication altogether. The only one here that's fully entitled in the context you're giving is you really. You're just projecting.

J A he approached the CD of fallout in many ways
It wasnt, really
I thought it was quite humorous
The beta wasn't a stress test or a way to collect feedback about bugs, it was a glorified demo meant to sell preorders. Criticism from a "beta" weeks before release is more than justified.
The beta was way to short to fix anything as most betas last month's not 2 damn weeks
So... B.E.T.A. being so close to release, is clearly not a beta. It's at best a stress test of the servers, and there was no excuse for the obvious glaring issues with bugs. I agree the ranting is and was excessive, but still.
Other than that, yeah. You're video is still as good as all the other videos you do, and I will continue to enjoy your content.
True, there wasn't much wrong with those beta reviews, in fact they were very reasonable and foresaw this giant failure.
Meanwhile, I'm put off by the fact that the first place this guy found in Fallout 1 was the raider camp. Quite an unfortunate experience to come out of the gate with for veering slightly more south than the game originally intended you to. And without a character that could talk his way out of "join or die" to boot.
Fallout 76
Marketing: 90%
Game : 10%
@Forsaken Pumpkin It's a shitty game so people are calling it a shitty game, get over it.
Forsaken Pumpkin hate bandwagon? You poor, delusional fanboy. How you can accept this shit and shady practice is beyond me.
@Forsaken Pumpkin Bruh the "Clickbait" youtubers where riding this game's dick saying "its just a beta" until everyone was universally shitting on this game. so if anything, the youtubers who got flown out to West virginia are the bandwagoners, desperately trying to save face and not appear to be a bugthesda shill.
It's amazing how this guy always ends up shilling Bethasda games, even when the game is generally agreed by both critics and users to be by far the worst full priced game of the year.
It's like he always sprinkles some of the more harmless but popular complaints towards Bethasda games but then massively bombard the videos about "how fun these games are", even making freaking montages about it.
I mean come on, FO76 is an extremely low effort asset flip from Fallout4. Calling it even an okay or average game is an insult to the gaming industry. Also, criticizing the ""beta"" testers for complaining about the game is just ridiculous. These AAA "beta"s are not actual betas anymore but just marketing demos, considering how close they are to release date and how little the devs can actually fix.
Even talking about the lack of NPCs like if it was a pro of the game, since "fallout4 npcs sucked anyway"
The marketing team did a better job than the development team which is big sad
I understand that most modern day AAA "Betas" are just glorified game demos, but holy shit if any studio needed to do an actual beta it was Bethesda on this game, multiplayer on fallout 4's engine needs a bit more trialing then just a "server stress test"
tripple A batterys have a beta game? (joke: modern day AAA "Betas")
@Ostrich160 It was 2 weeks before launch. Character progression remained
It wasn't a beta. They fixed nothing.
I played The Division beta, that was a real beta. They stress tested the servers and it was some time before the game came out. They fixed most of the bugs reported and once it was over they reset progress and gave participants a shiny gun and a patch as thanks.
Ostrich160 Obviously they didn't fix nothing. But look at reviews of the game. A very Very large amount of bugs present in the FO76 Beta are still present in the released game. And they aren't minor bugs. Bugs like enemy health not decreasing, nukes crashing the servers, T-pose enemies, etc.
That's not okay for any AAA game.
Ostrich160 So your logic is "Since it doesn't happen all the time it's minor"? A bug that makes an enemy Invincible should never happen. Even if they aren't major bugs, you call them minor. In which case what did that 60GB patch fix? Because all the bugs which are encountered frequently were still there.
Also fire 2 nukes at once. Servers crash very regularly. This is after the promise of "You will never see a server"
Actually the sixty gig patch was much smaller, bethesda is simply terrible at updating as instead of adjusting folders within the game they deleted them and forced you to redownload. My problem is they released a glorified beta for sixty dollars than added microtransactions to rub salt in the wounds.
Yes, because a Beta released a week or 2 prior to the full games release is totally going to change that drastically or have the time to make any of the fixes and take all the feedback...
It's a glorified demo.
Destiny did a similar thing.
And it's not like 76 did anything to prove all those videos on the Beta wrong, so it hardly showed them they were wrong.
Also in regards to the NPC situation, it just feels like "No one likes our NPC's? Fine, we just won't have any!" Which feels like a lazy way of dealing with their problem instead of, you know, hiring better writers.
The games a bit of a mess where you either make your own fun or have fun with friends which isn't saying much.
Not worth the $60, especially not with it being a technical mess.
Also comparing the price of a multiplayer online game to an MMO feels a bit disingenuous. MMO servers hold a lot more people at any given time and update with additional content added to the game, usually following on with each expansion. So your sub money is basically funding the servers and additional content the games add ontop.
I don't think 76 is going to get additional content of that level outside of cosmetics they have micro-transactions for anyway.
Yeah, it's like...we didn't want you to get rid of your npcs Bethesda, we just wanted you to make them better

I swear the Metroid Prime credits theme is like an activation phrase; every time I hear it I'm in front of the Wii almost before I realize it
It was on beta shortly before it was released officially, and it seems not much changed between these points. And with the way the game was marketed, particularly by Todd Howard himself, we expected the game to be a big step up from Fallout 4. It’s just Fallout 4’s exact engine and assets, but with a lighting mod.
EVERYONE was on beta "shortly before release", it only came out 2 weeks before the "full release". I haven't played the game and don't intend to, because i've watched a bunch of reviews and everything I've seen makes it look like Fallout 4 with a bunch of broken mods installed.
Fallout New Vegas just re-uses the assets from Fallout 3, and that game is fantastic. The whole re-used assets thing isn't much of a point against the game with that in mind imo.
And lacking story.
@@melancholyentertainment Yeah, except the reason there were so many reused assets was because Bethesda pushed Obsidian to make a game in a year. Bethesda had THREE years to make this garbage, and it's literally Fallout 4 with multiplayer. At least Fallout New Vegas has a different set of code, but Fallout 76's code is the exact same as Fallout 4.
@@melancholyentertainment It is when it doesn't add competent game design and amazing writing like NW did. Not to mention, Bethesda forced the studio to make it in an absurd amount of time.
