But Fallout 76 is in fact an online survival RPG that’s heavily inspired by games like DayZ and Rust, according to three people familiar with the project.
Those people, speaking anonymously so as not to damage their careers, confirmed that Fallout 76 is
an experimental new entry in the longrunning post-apocalyptic series.
When Bethesda first teased the game on Tuesday morning, fans and pundits
speculated that it might be a Fallout 3 remaster or a New Vegas-style spinoff in a new location, but as Kotaku reported that afternoon, it is in fact something completely new and completely different. The teaser might lead Fallout fans to believe that this is a traditional entry in the series, but according to our sources, that’s not the case.
Originally prototyped as a multiplayer version of Fallout 4 with the goal of envisioning what an online Fallout game might look like, Fallout 76
has evolved quite a bit over the past few years, those sources said. It
will have quests and a story, like any other game from Bethesda Game
Studios, a developer known for meaty RPGs like Skyrim. It will also feature base-building—just like 2015’s Fallout 4—and
other survival-based and multiplayer mechanics, according to those
sources. One source cautioned that the gameplay is rapidly changing,
like it does in many online “service” games, but that’s the core
outline.
Looks bad todd
eh idk about this for two reasons.
1. I haven’t finished Fallout 4 yet considering life and whatnot.
2. I’ve played ESO
and had bad experiences with it. first time was when it came out and second time I gave it a second chance and it was just a big fat no for me. I pray if I do give this game a chance, it’s not gonna be some “Pay us $64 and then pay $14.99 a month bullshit.”
