Fallout 76 Really Sucks. People Act Shocked.

That was pretty funny yet detailed. I knew a lot of these but damn, there was even more I hadn't heard about. Bethesda really seems to think people are that gullible. I mean, people do make poor economic decisions in a general sense, but you can't pull the wool over someone's eyes without actually having the wool to do so.
 
I like how Internet Historian sounded like he was seething throughout the video. He's pretty much always calm and cracks a pun or two in all his other stuff but here he sounded legitimately angry at points.
 
I liked the part about the delay with the rum because it wasn't up to Fallout standards.

Hey, things haven't been up to Fallout standards with Fallout since Fallout:BoS. :P

Apparently Todd Howard thinks the launch of a game doesn't matter, it's what it becomes afterwards. This is such nonsense but i'm honestly not surprised. This is Todd Howard, the industry king of lies and deceit.

Destiny has released two games that people hate initially but after spending another 40-60 bucks on DLC after year one, you'll find most people defend the games and love them fairly often. Then they'll buy the next game with all its issues and then buy the DLC to "fix it." So, I can see how some others in the industry think that just by updating a game well enough, it can redeem itself and the launch is only important to games that are singleplayer or some other asinine line of thought.

Games should be good and stable on launch. I hate this complacent attitude people have adopt with, "But, they'll surely fix it!" with anything. I understand that people were NOT happy with New Vegas on launch and they had every right to be. If you spend the standard AAA price on a game with that much of a budget, you shouldn't be barred from criticism because "they'll just fix it later."
 
The criticism to New Vegas's launch was warranted, both Obsidian and Bethesda were at fault here. It's honestly a practice that needs to die, releasing half finished games full of bugs and then expect the customers to just take it.

It's made worse by the fact some of these games barely have any content at release, and only get content after an expansion. At least New Vegas released with substantial content.

i don't think it will die, people keep buying them and are too much of pussies to boycott another game from their favourite series

That is why I feel you shouldn't bother sympathizing with stupid people or try to make them understand that it is their own behavior that makes publishers think they can get away with these types of practices.
More likely they will turn their dislike/anger towards you because you try to disrupt this wonderful fantasy they are collectively experiencing.
 
I really don't give a rat's ass if you buy the newest Fallout games or not. I give a shit when you complain about how you spent 60 bucks while knowing better. You can spend it how you please but don't whine about something you already knew.
 
Yeah but for how long? Game reviewers change their tune as often as the wind changes direction.
When the next Elder Scrolls or Bethesda Fallout is announced Todd Howard can't do wrong.

Eh, Sterling's been growing more critical of them ever since the paid mod shit. Before that he was fairly fond of them if I remember correctly.

But you'e not wrong. As long as they do something semi-right reviewers and whatnot will 180. If TES 6 is anything like Skyrim but next-gen and a few new things to do, people will stop being so harsh about Bethesda overall. It's magic.
 


This might be the same one from earlier, or a different take on it.
 
Canvas bags are a smoke screen, so everybody talks about them, not about missing mod support and private servers.
