I was so hyped before Fallout 76 and I was so disappointed after the launch and just threw it into the trash.

Bethesda can deliver triple A hype but the whole development story and the customer service behind Fallout 76 is just disgusting. The only positive about the whole disaster: This video. In my opinion it’s one of the best and entertaining videos of all time on YouTube. Watch it before you preorder.

    Unless they try to push the creation club by blocking mods and thus community patches,

    Unlike certain other devs/publishers I don’t think Bethesda are dumb enough to think Skyrim would have been so successful for so long if they’d blocked mods.

    If there’s one company I’m certain values mods very highly, it’s Bethesda. Simultaneously it wouldn’t surprise me at all if they put in the creation club right from the get go and tried pushing it more. But outright blocking, or hindering the creation of “normal” mods, doesn’t seem like something they’d do.

      howard, director of the studio is also explicitly pro modding

      Bethesda knows what it has, any push towards blocking modding is going to be a decision from higher up (microsoft, zenimax)
