At this point, I actually think this game is underrated. I didn't play it when it released, but I did pick it up for $4 in 2025 and it was some of the best money I spent all year. There's plenty of fallout to be had here. Is it the best fallout? No. Is it bad? Not at all. The storage seems to be a big complaint from a lot of people, but even after 100+ hours it was never ever a problem. I actually enjoy the limit on storage as it makes you feel like you have to be somewhat strategic on what you pick up / keep. Pros: I really enjoy that the world doesn't stop when you go into your pip boy. It makes you actually have to be geared up and ready to go into places you haven't explored yet. There is coop; and it's pretty seamless. You can't do everything as a party, but I generally didn't find it to be a problem at any point during play. Combat is fun. I really enjoy the real time VATS. No gameplay is really hidden behind the atom shop. You can enjoy the full game for one price; No DLC needed. Cons: Game is still on the same ol' ♥♥♥♥♥♥ bethesda engine. You have to go into your files to change things like V-Sync and your mouse settings if the scroll bar in game isn't slow enough for you. Game runs at 80-120 FPS outside for no reason. Lighting in some places is really bad, and the shadows can look awful. This doesn't really affect game play too often... but it's crazy how these problems have existed for 15+ years cuz of this awful engine. Overall; I'd say this game is super worth it (especially on sale for $4-8) if you enjoy the fallout franchise at all. It's not the best, but there's a good amount of fun to be had. 7.5/10

Ugh, look, it's a mess. Bethesda makes messes. The monetization is gross. The private server cost and cost of shop items is dumb. The controls are a mess and the NPCs are boring as hell.I want to hate it. BUT...playing it with my friends is...fun. All the new enemies are fun. A lot of stuff is fun. It's a diamond in the rough. Well, not a diamond. A pretty nice rose quartz. But it's Fallout and you can play it with your friends, and I want that. If this is the best I can get, I'm not mad. It could, indeed SHOULD, be better. But I'm glad we have it and that they've actually made it worthwhile after the abysmal release.

I have played Fallout 76 off-and-on since release. Years of free updates have transformed this game from what it was back then. Some highlights of the changes I've witnessed over the past 22 seasons: • Devs listened to community feedback: they improved existing systems, reduced barriers to entry, and added loads of new content. • It now takes significantly less time to gear a character for end-game content. • There are now multiple methods to obtain desired modifiers on weapons and armor, making it easier and allowing players to min/max builds without so much grinding. • The building system has been completely overhauled making it more user-friendly and addressing countless bugs. • Perk cards have been tweaked and rebalanced to allow for a greater diversity of builds to be viable. • Several unique factions were added, each with a complete story-line to explore. • Season passes - allowing you to unlock subscriber rewards - are now purchasable using in-game premium currency. • New characters are given the option to advance directly to level 20 on start and are given a generous kit, offering a quicker progression to end-game content. You can get to level 50 within a few hours of beginning your journey. • Multiple new locations have been added, including an extension of the world map to the south. • Multiple new end-game dungeons and bosses have been added. Compared to the original end-game, the amount of content is enormous. At the current sale price of $10, Fallout 76 is definitely worth trying out if you enjoy the series and would like to explore the wasteland with your friends.

TL;DR Get's an unwarranted amount of hate. If you're a fan of survival/crafting/base-building games, and don't care too much about story (there is one it's just not particularly interesting) you'll get your money's worth out of the game without needing to subscribe to Fallout 1st. Details below: I came into this game expecting jank—most reviews go on about bugs, pay-to-win, or it being unplayable without a subscription. As you can see from my hours played, I was pleasantly surprised. For context, I’m not a Fallout fanboy. I’ve played and enjoyed the series, but you don’t need any prior knowledge to enjoy this one. The gunplay is snappy and satisfying, with plenty of variety. Ignore the complaints about recent patches “nerfing all the fun builds”—that mostly comes from salty veterans upset they’re no longer absurdly overpowered. In reality, the patches made more weapons viable, giving you more freedom to craft a build that fits your playstyle. The first few main quests are slow and generic—“go solve our problems because we can’t” type of tasks. But once you get past that (it doesn’t take long) and set up your C.A.M.P., the game opens up. The latest update made base building far more enjoyable: you can now build almost anywhere (as long as it’s not too close to a landmark or another player) without worrying about physics. At first, options are limited, but as you discover more plans (blueprints), customization becomes almost Sims-like. Some of the cooler items are in the cash shop, but you earn Atoms (the premium currency) for free by completing challenges. For reference, many packs with new materials, furniture, etc. cost around 1,500 Atoms—an amount you can easily grind out in your first week. Seasonal rewards also unlock new plans and cosmetics. Yes, some are Fallout 1st–exclusive, but it’s nowhere near Blizzard-level battle pass nonsense. Free-to-play players still get plenty of worthwhile unlocks, like pets for your camp, arcade machines that grant stat boosts, and more. Gear customization is another highlight. Almost everything can be modded to boost resistances or damage types, or rolled into a legendary with unique bonuses like explosive projectiles, cloaking while stationary, or elemental retaliation. Weapons can be further tweaked for range, fire rate, accuracy, and stability, with mods also changing their appearance. Combine this with the wide variety of perk cards, and you’ve got tons of options for fun, satisfying builds. One common gripe is limited storage, which Fallout 1st subscribers bypass. It’s a fair critique, and it bothered me at first. But I quickly realized you can craft “junk” into “bulk” and sell it to NPC vendors. There’s a daily cap, but it’s not an issue until mid-to-late game. As a non-subscriber, I’ve only found storage limiting if I try to hoard everything. For most players, scrapping and selling regularly keeps things manageable. Another annoyance is that most main story quests take place in instanced zones, and only the leader gets quest progress. This is frustrating in groups, but the quests are short and soloable. Alternatively, you can rotate leadership and repeat them—everyone still gets XP and loot, so it’s not a dealbreaker. Overall, there’s a lot of fun here for different playstyles. Builders can spend hours perfecting their bases. Theorycrafters have endless ways to blow things up, melt enemies, or stab them—plus two free loadout slots for experimenting. Explorers will find plenty too; I’m level 165 and still discovering unmarked locations that grant XP and fast travel points. The community is also welcoming—higher-level players often hand out gear to newcomers, and you can join events for rewards regardless of level. You don’t need a subscription to enjoy the game. If that’s been holding you back, ignore the misinformed hate—and if you see me in Appalachia, wave hello!
