Yeah, they'll learn to extract more cash more quickly and get heavy on the NDAs next time.

Exactly the same here. Fallout is for me a solo experience, and the multiplayer aspect felt a little bit lazy and odd, and as if they were jumping on the current bandwagon.
Yeah, I got burned with Elder Scrolls Online... and at least that was a full MMO. FO76 seems to try to be everything to everyone and ends up being nothing to nobody.
Bethesda Softworks, where the errors in the code are outnumbered only by the errors in the boardroom.
My feelings also. Especially now since this blatant cash grab. I'm these days where developers like CDProjekt are putting out high quality storied games they really need to up the ante and I don't think they will. For that reason anything coming out of this studio is going to get a massive wait and see from my wallet.
Looks like Bethesda is up for one or two lawsuits. The "false advertisement" for the legendary/collector edition has merit, hope they loses their pants.
Moving Bethesda into the blacklist bin of once favored game developers along with Dice and Bioware. All of them STB'ed over the past two years.

Just when you think they couldn't possibly make it worse...this is some new level of disconnect with reality.
I thought it was old news already. By Bethesda standards at least...
Sorry, sometimes I read quick at work in spare moments, I obviously missed it. I like your synopsis lol.
This really feels like triple a game companys are buckling under the weight of their own greed. I LOVE IT.

I've been playing it since launch and have had a lot of fun, so much so, that I haven't been able to stop long enough to try the latest Beyond features. I have explored pretty much the entire world am starting to get bored, so will probably switch back to ED soon, but I already feel like I've gotten my moneys worth.
Which money's worth? The $60 initial release worth or the "oh no we screwed up, drop it down to" $40 2 weeks later worth? What's it at now $30 $20, even $5 bargin bin I would say no.
I say clean house of bethesda top management that ok'd this fail of a game. A game dev had a bad idea and all management saw was a big bucks MP game. Drawing upon GOTY Fallout 4, a single player game.

If I remember right, everybody complained about Fallout 4 when it first came out also.
The purists wanted FO-3 and FO-NV done over and over with new maps.
ME got better and better with me2 and me3. The purists wanted Me1 done over and over.
Oh Well.
It's always a matter of perspective. I did not really enjoy the base building, but the bonuses they provided were neat enough. And boy did I LIKE to put a mortar inside. While character progression and rpg elements took rather a back seat, maybe story wasn't that great, the world building was spot on and allowed for exploring the map and experiencing unique palythroughs well enough.
Bioware games have shifted their focus to more action oriented gameplay. Combat became sleeker and better while rpg aspects were more and more in the background. It's a tradeoff not everyone is willing to take.
But these developments have nothing to do with shoving out a buggy unfinished mess for full price marketed with false promises like FO 76.

I wish I was English like my hero Tj.
F4 was not nearly as good as it should have been.
