If you've been paying attention to the
online reaction to Fallout 76, you've probably heard a lot of
negative comments, and have maybe even seen that infamous video on
Youtube about the disgruntled customer with anger issues at Gamestop
who flipped out when he couldn't return the game. If any of this has
deterred you from considering Fallout 76, I'm here to share my
experience with the game so you can make a decision about whether or
not it's right for you. One of the reasons I suspect there has been
such a loud outcry of condemnation about the game is because people
had very high expectations, and some were disappointed. In today's
culture, disappointment often results in unncessarily toxic and
overblown reactions. Upfront, I'll say this: Fallout 76 has a few
bugs, or at least it did for the first two weeks—my game crashed 5
separate times. Last week, Bethesda released a patch, and so far,
I've not experienced any more game crashes on my PS4. Many games are
released by their deadlines and patched several days or weeks after
as bug reports roll in, so this is not unusual. Early adopters are
sometimes playing a new game that is fresh out of beta, so not
everything was caught in time before release. A little patience with
the developers can really go a long way towards enjoying a fantastic
game...
