    -----------------------------------------------------------------
    Fallout 76 is a 2018 action role-playing video game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. It is an installment in the Fallout series and a prequel to previous entries. Set in the year 2102, players control a resident of Vault 76 who must venture out into the dilapidated open world known as "Appalachia" in order to re-colonize the region, and uncover a mysterious plague that has killed off its inhabitants. Fallout 76 is Bethesda Game Studios' first multiplayer game; Bethesda developed the game using a modified version of its Creation Engine, which allowed the accommodation of multiplayer gameplay and a more detailed game world than in previous games.
    Fallout 76 was released to generally mixed reviews, with criticism for the game's numerous technical issues, overall design, lack of gameplay purpose, and initial absence of human non-playable characters. The game was the subject of several controversies, chiefly with regard to the quality of physical content. A number of Bethesda's responses and attempts to provide ongoing support for Fallout 76 in the months following its launch were met with criticism. The game sold 1.4 million copies by the end of 2018. In October 2019, a premium subscription service called Fallout 1st was added to the game. The first major update to the game, Wastelanders, which reintroduces non-playable characters, was released in April 2020.

      If you suffer from motion sickness, play in third person. It really makes a difference .
      I won't address any of your opinions. I've been playing the game since the launch/ beginning and I dumped Fallout 4 for it. It was liberating not to have console commands and learn how to get good enough. Nowadays I play with 2 different accounts at the same time on PC (Steam, different machines, different accounts), cause I have a specific niche inside the niche. You do you. I'm happy doing what I do.

      Bro explained from 6:00 to 6:30 why that's irrelevant. The game lacks many of the tools and MMO uses to make raids and multiplayer interesting in an MMO, to the point its just cooperative Fallout, except if YOU tried playing the cooperatively, it odnes't function because Bethesda gave up on the MMO ide and just made it a singleplayer server.
      Although I do agree, this is a clickbait video and Luke is quite clearly phoning this shit in. Seriously all of them are nearly 22-23 minutes on the dot.
      Doens't change his point that 76 is a game with an identity crisis that is saddled with the lode stone around its neck of always online multiplayer that can't effectively use its medium to fulfill that promise.

    I can't bring myself to play it. It's flabbergasting that it's a game not made in the early 2000s because everything is so clunky and ugly and shitty-feeling. The gunplay is atrocious and the hit registration is even worse. The quest design is bottom-of-the-barrel-tier and some quests don't even work properly or are so buggy they're nearly impossible to complete. I tried to give it a chance, but I'd rather just play New Vegas over and over.

    Seeing Fallout in the news makes me happy to see. The vibe in this universe is so unique and captivating. I just wish the game series was handled better. By the time FO5 drops, there could potentially be people doing their taxes who weren't alive for the FO4 release. As good as the show was, I hope there are more game releases before FO5 comes around. Something between then and now has to happen and I hope it isn't just this show or FO76.

    the Fallout1s stuff in the Shop you show is all skins (the stuff that costs 15 dollars WITH Fallout1st suscripton, its just that you have the ability with Fallou1st to get skins from Past Seasons) The Stuff that u get with Fallout 1st that is kinda game changing, is the free stuff. That is the Scrap Box and the Ammo Box. Then you also get the Private server, and 1600 Atoms per month. All that other stuff in the Shop you can buy with atoms, like the Fusion core charger, or the scrap robot. Its mostly fair balanced and you get atoms a lot if you just play the game for a while. Also you get a lot of free offers in the Atom shop and then you have that kind of battlepass that also gives you a lot of free stuff (also atoms).

    For anyone wondering... It takes about 15-20 hours, at least 10 locations and maybe 10 quests to finally get to a point where its either enjoyable for you or its not. In terms the game takes a minute to get going because its more of a 200-300+ hour game. Just saying it took me til my third try and I was farther in the game that it finally got me and I played around 600 hours. Also you can tweak ini files(and add some mods) without worries, to change things to your liking

      I get that but if any other game said I need to spend 20 hours in it before it becomes enjoyable I probably wouldn't play that either. I miss the days when devs focused on making games have fun enjoyable game play loops and mechanics. Not the monotonous grind designed to have small endorphin releases to satisfy addictions. Bethesda seem to just focus on that now

    Honestly there are some really cool new questline in F76, the Wastelanders Questline rly starts at level 20 (you have to have that level to engage with the factionquests) in search for the Vault Gold, especially the Questlines you do for the factions, hence Raiders and Settlers are quite interesting. You are in one quest faking beeing a slave in a gladiator arena, on the other Quest you are infiltrating a chinese espionage underground base full with chinese ghouls to get the plans for the stealth armor.
    Then you have the Brotherhood Questline where you are uncovering that some "kind" of "organisation'" is still deducting science experiments and a threat to humanity. Here you also can decide to follow Paladin Rhamani or Knight Shin, one wants to be more helpfull to society and liberal, Shin wants to follow the strict orders of the brotherhood. Then you got a new Questline that will lead you to a family of an ex mobster, where the daughter is addicted to the stuff they call "the devils blood" and you have to help her. The big new update will also introduce a new main Questline, regarding Vault63 and a new kind of Ghouls. It even have a full new area to explore in the south with new Enemies and a new Bossfight (3 giant robos, with different kind of attacks, you have to fight all at once in a kind of Arena)

    I loved the Fallout series, and have played every edition to the series. When 76 came out, I quit it within 2 hours. After the series and positive word of mouth, I returned to 76 and haver already spent dozens of hours enjoying the game in a whole new light. The game IS improved. Will it be for everyone? No. However, if you like post apocalytpics stuff, if you like MMO experiences, and you want a game you can play solo or with friends -- then I feel like I can confidently say it's an option. If you play on PC though, make sure to look up the post from IGN about how to remove the 60 FPS frame lock so you can enjoy it at 120+ frames. It makes the game so much smoother. I think it will fix the problem Luke mentions here about the engine feeling sluggish.

Fallout 76 on the other hand, even after half a decade of updates, I still can't stand the gameplay, story, lore, etc... It feels like a Fallout Theme Park, or a "Fallout" skin game rather than a real Fallout world/game. The whole thing just feels odd. Which is the worst part of it...

    You mentioned slight delays, nausea, and difficulty playing some games because of it - and I remember having the same problem with Monster Hunter Rise, Cyberpunk, and a few other games…
    Turned out it was my streaming/capture setup combined with my monitor’s configuration generating just enough delay that it seemed just a little bit off.
    When I hooked the system up to a TV, or directly to a different monitor everything played a lot better - so I had to reconfigure my entire setup to reduce or correct the delay.
    It was probably a few years of putting off games, or thinking some games were not for me - until I was playing them at a convention and wondering why it was so much better of an experience.
    With Fallout 76, I had to start using VATS to be more of an auto-aim system with my controller… carefully aiming was not feeling right and slowed things down too much. I’m running through Fallout 76 and enjoying it, but your video made me realize it was because of the Fallout 1st benefits. I probably wouldn’t be enjoying it without it.

    The "car sickness" nausea is caused by your eyes and hands feeling/seeing different things, and the two signals collide in the brain ... badly. Lag - especially a laggy response to motion input like strafing, jumping, shooting, etc. - gives me instant nausea / vertigo. I recently noticed this when I tried to return to The Division 2 on my old XB1X a few weeks ago. There's a NOTICEABLE lag between moving or pulling the trigger and the screen responding to that input. Can't do it. I think Destiny was the first FPS that I've never had any motion sickness issues with - it's super-responsive in that way.

    On gta+ you pay the same ammount as you would for their cheapest shark card, the one that gives you 250.000 something you can make in game in less than 2 seconds. But added on you get 500k (1.5 for the next few months) you MIGHT get a car for free, a business for free.. There a a bunch of the in game services become free, you may get 4x insted of 2x on certain weekends.. You get an Exlusive garage and you get other and better discounts in general.. All this definitely bonuses but nothing you can't get in a fair ammount of time by just playing the game if you want. It's entirely optional.
    Fallout1s basicly give you discounts on stuff you have to buy with more real money.. All those discounts mentioned in the gta part are in game currency that is very easy to make by just playing the game.. With 1st you pay real money, to pay more real money which is just ridiculous.. Also that most of the great crafting stuff has to be bought is just scummy

    If most of the Fallout 1st stuff was free, or like a 1 time purchase it would be enjoyable. But the very limited inventory is so annoying especially since there aren't any companions to take some of the load off so you can deposit or sell. The perk cards are cool, but if you want to build something it takes 50+ levels just to potentially have the right cards (I really wish there was an in game preview of all the card perks available). I like the weapon repair system, but its limited by the storage/weight limits. So many things in F76 are like that, cool concepts that would work if it wasn't choked by dumb unnecessary limitations.
