@@brycealthoff8092 Although, to be fair, that wasn't Bethesdas fault, if I remember correctly. It was a special edition helmet that was only sold through one game retail store and the helmets got mouldy because of them not storing the helmets correctly.

My dog does the same thing. When she's falling asleep her hind legs twitch like crazy and you better no be caught in that, she's a bit over 110 pounds and it's all muscle. Not to mention her nails are quite big even when recently trimmed so she can leave a nasty scar just by accident, I myself have a couple xD
yeah my dogs do the something similar they're lapdogs but they medium sized dogs and are heavy but they like to sit on your lap upright, and its just dog bone in your leg, or if one slips right that half the weight of a dog on your balls
There was also a hack that would steal every item from your target even if they were wearing it. just spend hundreds of hours to get the best shit, Yoink Thanks.
If I may, some advice: If you wanna censor yourself for monetisation, use another sound than the beep. RUclips is planning to count even censored words as "bad" and the goddamn bot is picking up the beep. It's already baked into the TOS and their public announcements. I personally like the stereotypical dolphin sound. Far easier on the ears as well.
@@kirayoshikage1491 I think the rationale here is that kids will still know you're swearing. In other words, they're idiots because the same website that'll demonetize you for bleeping still has videos up where two gay dudes play "toy or wiener" behind a courtain together. They just don't know what they want, other than copious amounts of advertising money.
Jeez, RUclips is seriously daring (legitimately pissed off) people to build a homemade trebuchet, carry it to their HQ building and throw a big paint-filled balloon at their windows using that same trebuchet.
The basic problem is their game engine is almost 30 years old, and with a basic knowledge of how glitching in games you can exploit the hell out of it, they've solved alot of problems now but its still full of holes
@@MC-tn4ux Now that I think about it 76 would have been the perfect time to make a new engine that added multiplayer framework for any future multiplayer titles they will inevitably make. Instead of throwing duct tape onto an engine that was designed for near limitless client-side manipulation and trying for years to make a viable product that doesn't tarnish their image any more than it has.
They actually gave it away for free some time ago & apart from a certain few, it was probably the first huge game giveaway I've seen where nearly no one wanted the game.
30:30 that what they attempted to do, but it's difficult to a integrate multiplayer into a typically single player engine. Difficult, but not impossible. They really missed the mark with this one.
As someone who lives in WV, I was very hyped for this game. Then all the shit started flying. Sad to see we'll never get a good fallout representing us.
And even after all that, gamers will still shell out tens of millions on Elder Scrolls 6 pre-orders, and that's why games are in the state they're in right now. Giving them so much as a penny again is openly condoning all of that anti-consumer behavior. 🤦♂️
Which is exactly why I'm just going to wait for elder scrolls 6 and then once it comes out I'll be watching the news and reviews to see if it's complete shit like 76. Luckily I was one of those who don't pre-order in the first place and also thought 76 was dumb anyways. Fallout 76 was nothing more than Bethesda dragging their name through the mud over and over and over. How they didn't learn I don't understand but now that they are owned by Microsoft hopefully things will change
I'm not buying it at all. I'm done with Bethesda. I simply don't trust them not to monetize the shit out of any game they make while they once again ship a broken buggy mess of a product.
I personally don't get the rush in general. Gaming in the past got better so quickly that getting the latest versions were generally always better.(think going from fifa 98 to 99 to 2000, etc.) That hasn't been the case in over a decade. Like, I currently play Slay the Spire, Factorio and Rimworld mostly. When I'm now looking for a new game to try I don't look for just games from 2021 because why would I? There are loads of good games that are over 5 years old I haven't played yet.
bethesda didnt make new vegas, obsidian made it and bethesda published it, they had devs from the original fallout games which are more detailed and complex rpgs than the modern incarnations as well as devs that made baldurs gate. That why new vegas is by far the best of the 4 bethesda published games.
27:49 of course it's illegal in other places. other places that aren't America aren't banks disguised as countries. that's essentially what America is so why wouldn't it be legal there
I attempted to locate any updates on the lawsuit against Fallout 76, but I haven't found anything newer than 2019. Even then, it just all says that there _is_ a lawsuit and it looks promising, but nothing else
Waited until all of the worst of these problems were fixed years later, got it for $4. It’s ok, but there’s just no real feel for needing to keep playing. Just imagine a Fallout 4 with no main story, just side quests.
ManyATrueNerd did another video specifically on the Atomic Shop and its history. Its a very even-handed and neutral coverage, and its the most damning review of Fallout 76 I've ever heard nonetheless. It's long, but it goes past the point of the story that Internet Historian covered. I'd recommend it.
the game has had enough of a "comeback" for it to be playable at the very least but its nowhere near the level of no mans sky's comeback. the most recent big update to fallout 76 added multiple camps and a perk loadout system that lets you change your special stats to make perk card loadouts you can switch between
It used to be kind of charming and funny, but it's not anymore. It's like "bethesda dude, you're grown up and out of college. You're a professional now. You've got to stop coming into work hungover and half-dressed, we're not fratboys anymore."
@@MC-tn4ux I rememeber seeing this one quote on another video about a game, can't recall which one, but it was along the lines of "It's cute to see a small kid stumble and fall and be messy every once in a while, but when that same kid becomes 30 and still stumbles and falls and drips food all over their clothes, it's no longer as charming"
@@techpassion4126 yeah, that sounds like it. I was still pretty entertained by Bethesda with skyrim, became a little "meh" with fallout4 , and then this steaming pile came out. I figured it was going to be bad when they announced the multiplayer-only but I had no idea how the cliff we were about to be driven over was.
And this video didn't even cover the red power armor helmet scandal. There was a special edition that came with a red helmet that was prone to having mold grow in it
Big differences between Fallout 76 and No Man's Sky. NMS was a new genre for an indie studio, overhyped and shackled to a release date by getting a publisher, had a disastrous launch but the dev team worked to fix the bugs and patch in content and mechanics to try to meet what they promised (and assumed via hype), without putting any of it as paid DLC. FO76 is the same genre that Bethesda has been making for ages, rushed to launch to join a popular fad, with no effort put in for Q&A for both the game and merchandise. There have been fixes, but their main focus has been nickel 'n' diming for content.
I thought it'd be hype at first, but me and all my mates saw the massive red flags when they announced no npcs in A FALLOUT GAME, and tried to play it off as a feature.
I actually got 76 on sale and played it recently, its not bad, its definitely a bit lacking but its not a bad fallout themed MMO, the base building and weapons were satisfying and they only issue I ever had was being harrased by high level players. Its not worth an 80 dollar price tag and it was released about 3 years too early but that considered its far from the worst game I've played. The launch is unequivocally the worst I've ever seen for a game though thats for sure.
Gonna be honest I got gifted the game by a friend a week ago Most of the game problems (not the real life shit Bethesda done, that one Is still shitty) has been fixed Wastelanders npc actually improved the game from what I can see
They couldn't make Fallout 4 online. Fallout 76 STARTED as the multiplayer version of Fallout 4. However, the team had NO idea how a multiplayer game worked. They had the Quake team from Id Software come over and help redo their engine to support multiplayer. By the time they learned how a multiplayer game worked, they finally realized that Fallout 4 would have to be made again from scratch practically in order to have a Fallout 4 Multiplayer version because the entire game was made from the ground up as a single-player game only. Absolutely nothing would have worked. So rather than scrapping the whole project that they had wasted months and months on and just cut their losses, they tried to save it by turning it into another game, and hence Fallout 76 was born. However, it was a game with no actual story, planning, organization, etc. It was all done on the fly and half-assed just to get something out before the deadline that would have originally been Fallout 4 Multiplayer. So, that's what we got.
The difference between no man's sky and Fallout 76 is that hello games actually put into work what they could to fix the game and now it's arguably just as good if not much better than what they promised initially. And even then they just bit off more than they could chew as a new company whereas Bethesda it's just greedy
I won Fallout 76 off Twitter a few months after it came out. I got so bored of it and abandoned the game only a couple of months playing. It was so empty and boring with almost nothing to do. I got back into it with Wastelander expansion and I've enjoyed it since.
He didn’t even talk about the mold in the helmet. Specifically in the one place where you’re breathing in and out. Yikes….

Also screwed them over on bonuses by making it provisional on a 85 metacritic score. It got 84.
Yea Fallout New vegas is actually good with a well made story. Bethesda just makes sand boxes that are easy to mod for lol.
@@BaeBunni Man, i have to say it, Fallout New Vegas is better that everything that Bethesda has done since Morrowind
