Leaderboard: Are you giving Fallout 76 a second chance?

    
38

Fallout 76 has not had the best couple of years. As MOP’s Justin said in his column rounding up Bethsoft’s worst flubs – and there were many – in the game since its launch in 2018, “Fallout 76 would sorely teach me the definition of the term ‘to settle.'”

And yet Justin, along with many other MMO players and Fallout fans, still went back to the game this week for the Wastelanders launch, which pushes the game more into MMO territory thanks to factions and NPCs.

Of course, not everyone who’s gone back is actually enjoying the experience. On Steam, where the game launched for the first time this week ($40 for newcomers, free for existing owners who secured their accounts prior to the release), players have flocked to post their opinions and review-bomb the game. (The bomb hasn’t been entirely successful, as reviews as merely “mixed” as I type this, but there’s plenty of grousing to be found.)

We’ll have our impressions up next week, but in the meantime, I’m curious about our readers, who have been… let’s just say fairly critical of the game along the way. Did you go back, and how are you finding it so far? Are you giving Fallout 76 a second chance?
