This shows that Mack does not care about who makes a game, even if its the developers of one of his favorite games he will not give them credit for making garbage. One of the most honest youtubers around.
You act surprised... Bethesda never finished a game... Community does on all their games.. And then everybody praises Bethesda for being an awesome developper.. LMAO what a joke of a company.
I was surprised people's narrow consciousness actually. Oblivion is an unplayable game, reasons: -leveling system unfinished, you need to "grind" by pressing a button million times: what an enjoyment... -world all generated looks the same (they give you instateleport for this reason in the beginning) -dungeons all generated looks the same, and they filled with same generic level scaled enemies for the level scaled loot -combat is unplayable lategame since level scaling overlooked by devs (unfiinished) and goblin overlords have billions HP so you need 1000 hit with a sword to kill one, meanwhile there are 100 in a dungeon -combat is also boring since you can craft millions insta heal potions so its impossible to die -quest are boring: clear a boring dungeon mostly or kill someone who has no chance to defend self -very bad story its something like 5/10 I really enjoyed fallout 3 however. 7/10 Skyrim was a bit better than oblivion. 6/10 Didnt play fo4 yet. But the main point i think its not a surprise that Bethesda realized people praises their games when they put zero effort in developing. How could a sane guy praise a game like oblivion. I mean i would do that only if it would be the first game in my entire life. Even playstation1 games much better from 1999. Im just kinda laughing in the back. People GET what they deserves actually. They were and they ARE who STILL rating OBLIVON to 10/10. And THESE are the PEOPLE who undermine the development of these next projects. Bethesda just following the recipe to throw garbage for these pigs. If oblivion and skyrim could get proper reviews like this guy did, and didnt get 9/10 paid rewivers maybe we could have a good game right now instead of this crap... But noo they wont give proper review. Thats why bethesde wont ever have a decent game. For the video: i think graphics looks not that bad. But thats all i disagree.
Are you high? Daggerfall to Skyrim, F3 and F4, were all 'finished'. You might like the extra stuff that modding can bring but none of it 'finishes' their games.
There's no magical mystery to the Gamebryo/Creation Engine, what you see is what you get. If Bethesda's normal games are already lacking and bare bones while including all the expected RPG amenities... what the fuck did people think it was going to be like when they stripped all of that out?
@Cheryl yes, mods made by the community are always fun. The game the developers create in the first place is the problem. They are saved by the community time and again.
Danny Mas Bethesda has done what they always wanted to. Take the NPC's and the story and element of choice right out of it. They want to make an fps fallout game.
Since it is based upon Fallout 4 modders already been quite busy. The thing is, it seems to use a lot of unsigned material too.. so modders can indeed make those mods that will make their characters never get hurt etc... because, it isn't as if the servers check anything. This is going to be a hackfest, if modders even care.
@@Patrickisnt Yeah, Fallout 4 already felt a bit hollow. It had story and npc's so that something but you already begin to notice how they changed things around. Still it was a doable game, not as good as Fallout 3 or NV though. This? This is crap.
Mack's honesty and well thought criticisms of games is what is keeping video games alive. Even if the industry as a whole turns to complete shit, as long as we have people like Mack to preserve the recipe for good games, classic games, his opinions remain a time capsule the future can learn from. Plus he's fucking hilarious as well. Also, Mack, *WHEN THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO START MAKING VIDEO GAMES OR PITCHING IDEAS TO COMPANIES???!!!* That shit would save the industry
@@Hard2hit94 That ain't true. Plenty of people are criticizing this game. CoachToolshed is one. You just like how profusely he swears, and I like that, too. :P
Mack If I had money, seriously I'd finance you to open your own game dev studio and make good games for humans who have lived for more than 12 years lol
@Isaak Thats a small part of making a game though, knowing whats good or bad game design. There's still the aspect of the design itself and giving players new and fresh experiences. I can critique paintings, but I wouldn't be able to pull of a Vermeer despite knowing how to paint and elements of design and how to properly critique art. Not saying its impossible but you know.
Yeah make a game is vastly harder than reviewing them. He may have a vision for a game or two, but a vision isnt going to achieve anythung without talent in the field
Eh I would trust Mack to be able to tell people what to make, he doesn't have to actually know how to make the games, just look at all the non gamers making the decisions for EA
Congratulations on 200k subs mack, Ive been following your two channels for years now and its nice to see worth a buy grow from the small channel it once was. Keep up the honest reviews :)
@@steveguy3 It's a bit harsh comparing Bethesda with EA, as EA shit the bed every month and then charge us for the privilege of licking it clean. Indeed EA seems to drink a bucketful of laxatives, shove a cork up it's arse, bounce up and down on the bed for several days, then the cork shoots out of it's arse followed by a frothy brown diarrhea that soaks into the mattress ankle deep.
I have purchased every fallout game thus far. Unfortunately Fallout 76 doesn't even seem to feel like a fallout game. No story, only holotapes wtf. This game looks like a cash grab for Bethesda. They hope all the fallout fans just blindly buy this heap of junk.
I see what they did here. They were riding high on their success of FO4 and Toddy thought "Hold on, instead of making another decent DLC, lets make it a full MMO game!" The devs around him looked in horror as they had no experience making multiplayer games, much less MMOs, so they voiced their concerns, but Toddy said "Nah, it'll be fine! You guys can figure it out". They said "What if we just make a 4 player coop mode for FO4 and sell it as a DLC?". Todd looked at them with a straight face "Nah, i want a full game and i want to put a store in it too, like all them other big AAA corpos are doing. They can do it, why can;t we?" So the devs got to work and they told Toddy that they need to make a new engine because the crusty old FO3 engine cannot support net coding and multiple people and they need at least 2 years to craft and test the new engine, but Todd became upset. He said "Nah, just use the crusty old FO3 engine and make us a game in 2 years so that my board of directors can buy a new vacation houses in Tahiti and i can furnish my chalais in France". And so the devs, with desperation in their eyes, got to work to bolt on a multiplayer mod on a 15 year old game engine held together with spit, gum and duct tape. They told Todd they had no idea what they were doing, but Toddy insisted, so they did their best. And here is the result: a shitty early access level survival game with SOME Fallout elements... Enjoy XD!
I laughed my ass off watching this good review. There's something about your accent and tone of delivery that makes it really really funny lmfao. Here, have my subscription.
Congrats on hitting 200k subscribers! You're criminally undersubbed! Should be on at least 500k or with your own T.V show. Keep up the quality content!
Shadow325 well worth the price tag? Brilliant another fan boy. How is 3 zombie maps, like 10 MP maps and a big blackout map worth £50? Look at the content in read dead then come back to me 🤣
@@earlofdoncaster5018 Yes, coop, that's all we want. even just two player i would be happy with. I remember someone (not sure if at Bethesda) saying "it wouldn't work because you can't have two Dragonborns so it would mess up the campaign together". My response was simple; "you have a companion that can follow you, so why doesn't one person simply act as the companion?"
Forget War, Bethesda never changes. Same old regurgitated engines. No steam release cause they know people will refund straight away. Lazy a$$ devs. Certainly wont be getting ES6 on day 1 if this is anything to go by.... and Todd even annouced ES6 will not be using a new engine! Oh Joy! :/
Sadly I'm sure if people keep buying Bethesda games they'll keep the Frankenstein's monster of the gamebryo engine going longer and longer until the games are totally unplayable even more than this one.
I can just imagine it getting to the point where a new Elder Scrolls is released that doesn't even work with the latest version of WINDOWS but they'll still sell it "It just works"..
@@OGPatriot03 How so? It's based in C++. It's no different than Unreal Engine 4. Just because it was made a bit ago doesn't mean it can't be updated and improved. Also why would Gamebryo not work with current and new types of OS's? If they've been able to transfer it to the current software I don't see a reason for them not being able to now.
i was expecting the PVP section to go like: mack"let's get into the pvp. i met this guy, i managed to find one guy on this giant fuck off map. so i talked to him i said "y'alright, mate?" and then he started firing at me! and i thought "oh shit he's gonna blow me to shreds!" but uh..*heh*..a little UI came up after he hit me, asking if he had my consent to fight him......" and then probably lots of bell ringing.
People are defending this game for some reason. They are like oohhh it is gonna get better blah blah blah. So gullible. I can’t get behind iterative game development. I think it is a scam. They are conditioning us to be ok with is so they can slowly do less and less work and charge the same amount of money (and in some cases, even charge more money for DLC that puts things in the game that should have been there from the start!). Eventually, they will get to a point where they know they can just put off things forever with good PR people until literally everyone has forgotten about the game. And then guess what, they just made a crap game with minimal effort and got everyone to pay full price for it!
Is the reason why the main target audience for this game was consoles. Bethesda can't make any money on PC with the modding community putting out more Superior work
This point has to be taken to the extreme so that fanboys get what we mean. That said, I have a game out too.It's only a white square atm but I promise you it will get better. It's $60 if anyone wants to play it.
I don't own it and I don't care for 76 but I'll defend it because a lot of the arguments against it seem really, really stupid. People keeping saying it isn't fallout. . But we've been there before with Fallout 3 versus the older Fallouts. Now we expect Fallout games to be like Fallout 3. Besides, Fallout is just a brand name. An IP name. It can be anything they want, such as Fallout Shelter or now Fallout 76. It doesn't mean they aren't going to make Fallout games like 3 or 4 or Vegas. Halo Wars didn't replace the FPS Halo. People want Obsidian? Lemme copy and paste a snippet from a 2011 article on the escapist: "Obsidian Entertainment CEO Feargus Urquhart says that he's aware that his studio has a reputation for releasing bug-filled games, and that it is something that it needs to work on. So far, every game that Obsidian has released has been criticized for the number of glitches they contained, most recently - and most spectacularly in many cases - Fallout: New Vegas." At launch New Vegas was a steaming pile of trash that couldn't be played due to bugs. For some reason people have forgotten. Or else they have Selective Memory. People have been obnoxiously asking for the next game every month, every year. Demanding they make the next Elder Scrolls or Fallout. And, on top of that, an increasing number of people have been demanding multiplayer of some kind. With the prevalence of Fortnite and PUBG and all those shared world survival games. . . Where do you think Bethesda is gonna go or try to do to shut people up? It's a quick game thrown out there. Mind you it's not what I wanted. I wanted a coop version of a main Elder Scrolls or Fallout. Just me and one other person. With sliders and toggles to protect my game from trolls so I can control what they can and cannot do in my game. But Fallout 76 is no affront beyond it's hefty pricetag.
F̶̕e͘r͏̶n͠a̛nd̡́͘ǫ ͏͝Ho̸̧od̨͠͡ use your brain, don’t try to be funny. I pre-ordered based on early promise, I cancelled as more to me negative details came out that outweighed the early positive signs. Now you can argue for and against pre-ordering, be my guest, but I cancelled the pre-order before the game came out. Now have a nice day acting like a smart guy.
@@TK421-53 a smart guy wouldn't pre-order anything. Far less this game due to the controversy. At no point should you have considered a pre-order. By you pre-ordering, you incentivize developers/publishers to be greedy and lazy, neither of which allow for quality games to be made
Like I wrote - you can discuss the merit of pre-ordering until you see blue in the face. I pre-ordered and cancelled my pre-order. Pre-order is like a reservation. Some people get worked up about it, but those same people rely on others to make up their minds. I make up my own mind, thank you. Close to 50, family man, gaming for decades.
I have just noticed something. When he first leaves the vault and comments on how shite everything looks. That path. Looks exactly like the beginning of skyrim. Can someone with this game check to see if the map has similarities with skyrim?
M3galodon yea i don't have the game so cannot check but looks so similar. When the map is EXACTLY the same size as Skyrim too. I think they copied and pasted to be honest.
Thank you ... you saved my money... as a fallout fan I was going to buy the power armour edition. I did not pre-order it because I was sceptical so I waited for you review. I'm really sad, I wanted it for my fallout collection but buying it would mean supporting it. If the sales go down they will build a new and better one. Thanks again.
This is a games as service game. They likely wont scrap it and make a better one, theyll build on what they have here for years to come. if it does fail, theyll likely skip this type of game.
I've thoroughly enjoyed it on console with and without my friends. Most of the complaints I've seen are from pc players and people who didn't play for long enough to know the store gives you free credits for completing events which occur regularly. I've already got over 1300 credits earned. I didn't get free credits for buying the game they came as I completed the events. It seems a lot of reviewers don't have all the information and I'm glad he at least posted it as a review in progress since this review didn't have all the information either.
@@NicoleMead What do you say to the criticisms of bugs and VATS being unwieldy in combat? People have raised concerns about the lack of npcs and story but I think this game is more inline with like Rust, so that's neither here nor there. Th two former criticisms are some big ones though.
@SaintAlia_of_the_Games When it comes to VATS, there are cards that can be used to augment how it functions. I've found it useful as an auto-targeting system when you need to shoot a bunch of stuff in a hurry, like defending a warehouse or base from a wave of enemies, but I tend to enjoy targeting things on my own. There are NPCs in the form of robots and some ghouls/mutants who you can trade with. I personally love the way the story is handled because for me I feel like one of the lone survivors in a decimated world, figuring out what happened through the discovery of notes and halo tapes left by the deceased which gives me this sense of wanting to succeed in rebuilding where they failed. The main story so far is finding out what happened to the Overseer but I've been preoccupied in exploration. For me the game is nothing like Rust because it's not a free-for-all building survival PVP game. I love the way PVP is handled in this game because I'm not a fan of it and for me it doesn't make sense for fellow vault dwellers to kill each other when one player is unwilling without the killer being labeled a murderer. If two vault dwellers have a common dispute and want to take it outside, fair play but if you're rebuilding society you need some rules of combat. Even lock picking into someone's base will get you labeled as a criminal which I think plays more realistic than a world without consequence which is established in a lot of games with optional PVP elements. On a side note about the cards, the video doesn't mention that they are shareable with other players. So, if your friend is weapon focused and you're melee focused you could share and swap to get cards that build your character the way you want.
@@ruekurei88And people should keep boycotting them until they go bankrupt and have to hand over the IP to someone more competent and in touch with gamers.
I Think this Channel is actually one of the best review channels around. This man Speaks the Truth about all the games he reviews. What a Legend. Keep up the good work buddy.
So this is how a franchise dies , with thunderous Microtransactions . In all seriousness, this has got to be the AAA flop of the year . Fallout deserves better then this tripe. Skiing Zombies more OP then Skiing Norwegian 13 year old girls
Maltor Sever this is how this shitty franchise will die but micro transactions won’t kill GTA as GTA 6 will once again like most Rockstar games will be the greatest selling piece of entertainment in history
He didn't mention it, but the micro-transactions are for cosmetics only, you can't pay to win. The bit he bought in the video was a skin for a door he already had in the game, not sure if he realised that.
@@stevietech Doesn't matter at all really, nor should anyone be excusing Bethesda for gouging gamers with needless micro transactions , they tried paid mods and were met with criticism, and then they had that creation club , so the next natural step in evolution is micro transactions . this game deserves to flop and Bethesda deserves to suffer financially for fucking up one of the greatest franchises . I Personally have no hope left for ES6 after this travesty .
I was on my way home from school when felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I thought: is this it? With a curious and excited face I looked at the notification on my phone. As I suspected it was a brand new WaB. My heart started to beat faster and I felt a sense hapiness through my entire body. I proceeded to put my phone into my pocket while I was imagining how many bells Mack was going to destroy this time... 2 or maybe 3? As I got inside the front door there was no time to spare. I rushed into the kitchen grabbing a snack as I flipped up my chromebook and turned on TH-cam. I felt tears of hapiness running down my cheeks... When I finally got to see the video it felt like my heart skipped a beat over how good the video was. I felt a sense of satisfaction running through my body and it was in that time I remembered. Mack is the best gaming channel on yt.
MACK, I was worried about you because I didn't see your videos on my subbox and now I checked your channel and saw that youtube unsubscribed me from your channel....wow....thx youtube...fking hell.
The reason triple-A developers like Bethesda release shit like this is because people buy it and actually like it. They give you mindless loop grinding knowing that gamers will get addicted to picking up trash all day thinking they're doing something lol. It's the freakin' gamers to blame, not the developer. I went to massively-overpowered forums and most of the gamers there love it! The bar is set way low for the majority of gamers out there and they can charge you full triple-A price. So sad. The industry is ready to implode (thankfully Rockstar was able to release a proper game though).
I wonder how many people actually like it, or how many people think they have to like it cause their favorite streamer says he/she likes it. There are so many games these days that are such a huge step back from quallity and fun, yet get praised over and over. When ever a game gets a huge hype, people will claim they love it, even when its the biggest turd ever made. It's as if people have to like it or otherwise they no longer belong to the cool kids club. Sure a x % will really like the game and that is fine, but i think the majority of those who claim they love it, only love it cause they feel like they have to say that.
@@Jorendo Funny, I wondered how many are hating it because their favorite TH-camr says is complete trash. 9/10 complaints are from people that either are blindly parroting it or haven't played it at all. Right now the reviews on Metacritic reflect this "I'm so glad I haven't played this..." Rather than rage against genuinely nasty practices like EA's staggered launch of a controversial shooter made by people calling critics "uneducated", they'll rag in the comment section about a disappointing game they've never played.
20 year old engine? I don't think you understand how games are made mate. A game "engine" isn't a single piece of technology nor is it a program. It's a collective group of tech which makes up a so called "engine" which is also updated regularly. You don't know what your talking about. Think before you speak!
@@blue1984 To be fair their engine sucks bad and they ain't upgrading the cruicial things from what I have seen. First you are CAPPED at 60 FPS in this game which is absolutely terrible especially for a PC game. You can unlock FPS while messing with the game files but the physics goes haywire. Also field of view is supposedly locked to either physics as well or some other similar thing which means that this game wont simply get a FOV patch. This engine sucks rly bad and to think its some AAA developer behind it just makes the feel they are lazy and just milking the consumers with as little effort as possible.
@@Bajtjr I agree it could be better but when a Bethesda game releases its always got issues. I suppose that's part of the charm we've all got used to it over the years. I've only played maybe 4 hours of 76 and I've enjoyed it but the lack of NPC's is a real problem for me. I'm trying to play it as a single play experience with voice chat turned off. I love big open world's so I suppose I'm easily pleased but when Mack or other reviewers have slated it I'm not surprised as I can understand the criticism. It's something they've never done with the series before and early doors it's not looking good for them. Really gonna have to bring out another mammoth patch and hopefully add NPC's as quests being given just by robots and terminals I'm sure will get pretty tiresome after a while. But yeah I take your point.
Congrats on hitting 200k subscribers, Mack! You deserve so many more. You're one of the few really entertaining people in the online video game world. Most of them have as much personality as a sack of potatoes.
LOL - what I love about your reviews is that you always notice the stuff that other reviewers completely ignore and it is always enlightening to see it from your perspective.
@@Ya_Mosura there's a area in fallout 76 that has alot of temples and at that area the game studers and langs and runs at 5 fps. I wish i was joking this game does not work plz don't buy it.
Bethesda should scrap this u right and refund everyone who bought the game ..... and then Todd “god” Howard should publicly apologies to the FO fans and resigned
Jared Laurence i respect your decision but..... i bet in 2 months from now nobody’s going to talk about this game. It is not clear this is a cash grab attempt on FO fans? I do not see any effort put in this game whatsoever.... just another early access with a full price attached to it . If wasn’t Bethesda i can bet you will never heard of it .....
Yeah I was wondering that too. They made Fallout 3 look like the bombs had dropped a week ago as opposed to 200 years ago. Now they have a game where the whole "wasteland" look that they didn't understand from the first two games (they were literally in deserts, you morons) would fit a lot better and they make it look like it's flourishing. WTF
as a huge fan of the (interplay) fallout series since the 90' and as a huge fan of YOU i simply love the clean cut review u give' saved me 50 pound so expect a good donation for youe honesty.. ive been watching your vids for almost a year and you are BY FAR my fav reviewer out there.. now all thats left is for me to find out how to give you a donation?? thanx MAck!!
Been waiting for you to rip this pile a new one. Bethesda used to be such a great company. It's sad to see what a money-hungry disgrace its become since the release of Fallout 4, which was an empty boring shell of an RPG.
"It's sad to see what a money-hungry disgrace its become since the release of Fallout 4" Euh....Bethesda is the first who used DLC in Oblivian. They made it a thing with the Horse Armor you had to pay real money for. They didn't became money hungry with Fallout 4, they been like that for a long time. Even with Skyrim, they never bothered fixing the majority of the bugs, they simply couldn't be arsed. You buy Skyrim on the Switch? You still got the day one bugs of Skyrim on PC and Xbox 360 in it. Why put effort in it when you can release the same game over and over without it costing you much while charing full price every time. Don't forget they also suddenly wanted to get money for mods in Skyrim and that backfired right in their faces. No, they didn't became a money-hungry discrace with fallout 4, they became more hungry, but they already were a money-hungry discrace.
"No bells were harmed during the making of this video." You're getting soft Mack ;) But in all seriousness, nobody should ever buy this game, it was a failure before they even started on it.
Your channel is severely underrated I’ve been watching your reviews for years I have been waiting for them to blow up for a long time now keep it up lad💯
Best two things about Fallout 1-2-3 and abit of Tactics, was creating YOUR player to YOUR specs/stats (and going back again and making them super weak but super smart.. or super strong and super dumb lol), and also the gritty apocalyptic conversations with NPCs (and then trying to have those same conversations with 10 strength and 1 charisma and 1 intelligence) Best thing about 76, co-op... but its hard to get it happening sometimes. We haven't quite figured out how to complete missions together. Unlike for example The Division. Which was easy to make co-op missions happen.
Yep, no arguing that, creativity and effort really has become the contraband for this Gen of gaming, excluding good Indies and the rare 1st party exclusive
12:04 wow that pop up, random enemy just popped out of existence. Again, Mack has pointed out all the important stuff. Another game I won't be trying. Edit: Gratz on 200k subs. Well deserved!
There is already an Elder Scrolls Online game for many years now. And it's a fantastic and successful MMO that sells very good and gets lots of high quality content updates. So I guess you are too late with your wishes :)
It's by Zenimax, the same corporate structure as Bethesda. Zenimax is also named on my Fallout76 box :) Just saying, Elder Scrolls is safe from the online front, it's already done and decent.
I knew this game would be a trash fire. It felt like the share holders made them make an online game because everyone else is doing it too. some games don't translate well to online games, not all games need a battle royale. share holders need to realize all they're doing is pushing their fans out the door for what is popular right now.
You were wrong about the leveling system. When you level up a special you get to choose a perk from that special right off the bat. The perk packs are a random bonus that comes every couple of levels. Cards are level locked, but not random at all
Starting on Hitman 2 now :)
Hopefully it is a blast happy that they dropped the episodic model!
Worth A Buy oh cool, literally left a comment asking if you’d do that
Does it have hairworks Mack ?
I just love your work and appreciate your effort and honesty.
Mack, you should do a retro wab on Fallout 1, 2 or New Vegas!
Fallout 76 made me want to do my homework instead.
...and I dont even go to school anymore!!
Because it was blown up
*This post was supported by Palestine Gang*
Todd Howard: "We actually carefully designed the game to be so incredibly shit it would motivate you to do your homework! You're welcome."
Your comment hurt me deeply. I couldn't breath and my chest hurt from the laughter.
Best laugh in recent times in the category reaction feeling to a TH-cam comment. Congrats.
For whom Mack’s bell tolls
Take a look at the bugs just before you die... its the last time you WILL !!! will.. will...wil...wi..
This comment thread is awesome
Men of five, still alive through the raging glow
Gone insane from the pain that they surely know
It blows my mind that anyone could support this game... complete trash... we need to expect more from AAA developers
Why? Why do you want to give your money mostly to suits that don't care about making fun games?
Abcde Fghij because people enjoy it how about you complain about the retards STILL supporting fortshite
right on brother. fight the power
@@daubeny.7287 Fortnite is free, while 76 is full $60, you nutcase. Those games are not comparable.
@@truegamer9093 it was great cause fallout 76 is a pretty decent survival fallout game
This shows that Mack does not care about who makes a game, even if its the developers of one of his favorite games he will not give them credit for making garbage. One of the most honest youtubers around.
I always come to Mack before throwing my hard earned money at games today. He just saved me another $60
You act surprised... Bethesda never finished a game... Community does on all their games.. And then everybody praises Bethesda for being an awesome developper.. LMAO what a joke of a company.
Actually true, sad state the gaming industry is in.
I was surprised people's narrow consciousness actually.
Oblivion is an unplayable game, reasons:
-leveling system unfinished, you need to "grind" by pressing a button million times: what an enjoyment...
-world all generated looks the same (they give you instateleport for this reason in the beginning)
-dungeons all generated looks the same, and they filled with same generic level scaled enemies for the level scaled loot
-combat is unplayable lategame since level scaling overlooked by devs (unfiinished) and goblin overlords have billions HP so you need 1000 hit with a sword to kill one, meanwhile there are 100 in a dungeon
-combat is also boring since you can craft millions insta heal potions so its impossible to die
-quest are boring: clear a boring dungeon mostly or kill someone who has no chance to defend self
-very bad story
its something like 5/10
I really enjoyed fallout 3 however. 7/10
Skyrim was a bit better than oblivion. 6/10
Didnt play fo4 yet.
But the main point i think its not a surprise that Bethesda realized people praises their games when they put zero effort in developing.
How could a sane guy praise a game like oblivion. I mean i would do that only if it would be the first game in my entire life. Even playstation1 games much better from 1999.
Im just kinda laughing in the back. People GET what they deserves actually.
They were and they ARE who STILL rating OBLIVON to 10/10. And THESE are the PEOPLE who undermine the development of these next projects. Bethesda just following the recipe to throw garbage for these pigs.
If oblivion and skyrim could get proper reviews like this guy did, and didnt get 9/10 paid rewivers maybe we could have a good game right now instead of this crap...
But noo they wont give proper review. Thats why bethesde wont ever have a decent game.
For the video: i think graphics looks not that bad. But thats all i disagree.
Are you high? Daggerfall to Skyrim, F3 and F4, were all 'finished'. You might like the extra stuff that modding can bring but none of it 'finishes' their games.
There's no magical mystery to the Gamebryo/Creation Engine, what you see is what you get. If Bethesda's normal games are already lacking and bare bones while including all the expected RPG amenities... what the fuck did people think it was going to be like when they stripped all of that out?
@Cheryl yes, mods made by the community are always fun. The game the developers create in the first place is the problem. They are saved by the community time and again.
oh boy, bethesda shit the bed with this one
I laughed entirely too hard at this comment ;)
well then they gotta find alot of clean sheets then because that explosive diarheeaa you will hear that in sovngarde ma boy
They also seemed to have shit on everyone else's bed too
Yea, I really like them because they have given me so much fun in their earlier titles. But I feel scammed every time I play this :(
I bought 76 copies. Game only breaks your HW, gives out private data, make scam & spy live service possible. Do you want one and ruin your life?
But hey, at least you have a nice door.
The final review is sure to sound the same as this too
You called it from the start while everyone else said "Oh it's just a beta, they'll fix it." Yeah right.
Lol, yea, since when has Bethesda ever fixed anything? But don't worry! You'll be able to play this on your microwave in no time!
yes because there is nothing left to see, after lvl 10 youv'e seen it all lol
No, it'll be worse............
I doubt he even wants to play it again
😂😂😂😂 this review is pure gold. Keep doing what you do bro.
It was a mistake to make this game multiplayer, Bethesda can't count on the modding community this time to clean their dung.
Danny Mas Bethesda has done what they always wanted to. Take the NPC's and the story and element of choice right out of it. They want to make an fps fallout game.
It would've been better if they just did it right and got rid of that GOD AWEFUL FUCKING ENGINE
@733Rafael pedocash? I didnt know it was marketed to furries
Since it is based upon Fallout 4 modders already been quite busy.
The thing is, it seems to use a lot of unsigned material too.. so modders can indeed make those mods that will make their characters never get hurt etc... because, it isn't as if the servers check anything. This is going to be a hackfest, if modders even care.
@@Patrickisnt Yeah, Fallout 4 already felt a bit hollow. It had story and npc's so that something but you already begin to notice how they changed things around. Still it was a doable game, not as good as Fallout 3 or NV though.
This? This is crap.

Is this an out of season april fools joke?
Don't you guys have april fools?

Nope but the game is worth it
@Wyatt Cheng console gaming is dead?! Where did you come up with that load of shit.
@@BigPaPaRu The joke went right over your head.
Mack's honesty and well thought criticisms of games is what is keeping video games alive.
Even if the industry as a whole turns to complete shit, as long as we have people like Mack to preserve the recipe for good games, classic games, his opinions remain a time capsule the future can learn from.
Plus he's fucking hilarious as well.
Also, Mack,
*WHEN THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO START MAKING VIDEO GAMES OR PITCHING IDEAS TO COMPANIES???!!!*
That shit would save the industry
200k!! Congrats Mack, you deserve it!
Thanks :)
He deserves 1 mil considering he's the only reviewer that has the balls to rip this game apart, unlike the other sellout reviewers.
@@Hard2hit94 That ain't true. Plenty of people are criticizing this game. CoachToolshed is one. You just like how profusely he swears, and I like that, too. :P
@@brothergrok You look on Metacritic, no reviews apart from one. Probably because it's Bethesda and they get away with it.
That's actually the big conspiracy here, he should actually have over a million ages ago. Gz Mack!
They probably released this so that Fallout 4 doesn't look so mediocre anymore lol
Pfft i added silent hill fog and darker night and realistic flashight mod and it looks soo much better
Then, when they release FO4 on 30 devices, people can say "at least it isn't FO76"
That is some next level market strategy right there.
Mack If I had money, seriously I'd finance you to open your own game dev studio and make good games for humans who have lived for more than 12 years lol
Just because you're good at criticism doesn't mean youd be good at the art/entertainment youre criticising...
LifeInTheMatrix is pre order and back
@Isaak Thats a small part of making a game though, knowing whats good or bad game design. There's still the aspect of the design itself and giving players new and fresh experiences. I can critique paintings, but I wouldn't be able to pull of a Vermeer despite knowing how to paint and elements of design and how to properly critique art. Not saying its impossible but you know.
Yeah make a game is vastly harder than reviewing them. He may have a vision for a game or two, but a vision isnt going to achieve anythung without talent in the field
Eh I would trust Mack to be able to tell people what to make, he doesn't have to actually know how to make the games, just look at all the non gamers making the decisions for EA
Congratulations on 200k subs mack, Ive been following your two channels for years now and its nice to see worth a buy grow from the small channel it once was. Keep up the honest reviews :)
This game..lol
Bethesda and EA shit their beds real bad this month, I'm so disappointed. A fan of both companies, but they both seem to have rushed their games.
Could not agree with both of you anymore, what a joke the gaming industry is becoming.
RDR2 was a solid 7 or 8 though.
@@ealovesmoney2406 rdr2 gets a 10 compared to everything else, and it clearly has at least 2 years of replay value
"Game" lol
@@steveguy3 It's a bit harsh comparing Bethesda with EA, as EA shit the bed every month and then charge us for the privilege of licking it clean. Indeed EA seems to drink a bucketful of laxatives, shove a cork up it's arse, bounce up and down on the bed for several days, then the cork shoots out of it's arse followed by a frothy brown diarrhea that soaks into the mattress ankle deep.
I have a sneaky suspicion that Mack is gonna thumb this down in the final review :P
What makes you think that?
Saved me £50 Mac. Cheers boss!
I have purchased every fallout game thus far. Unfortunately Fallout 76 doesn't even seem to feel like a fallout game. No story, only holotapes wtf. This game looks like a cash grab for Bethesda. They hope all the fallout fans just blindly buy this heap of junk.
I see what they did here. They were riding high on their success of FO4 and Toddy thought "Hold on, instead of making another decent DLC, lets make it a full MMO game!" The devs around him looked in horror as they had no experience making multiplayer games, much less MMOs, so they voiced their concerns, but Toddy said "Nah, it'll be fine! You guys can figure it out". They said "What if we just make a 4 player coop mode for FO4 and sell it as a DLC?". Todd looked at them with a straight face "Nah, i want a full game and i want to put a store in it too, like all them other big AAA corpos are doing. They can do it, why can;t we?"
So the devs got to work and they told Toddy that they need to make a new engine because the crusty old FO3 engine cannot support net coding and multiple people and they need at least 2 years to craft and test the new engine, but Todd became upset. He said "Nah, just use the crusty old FO3 engine and make us a game in 2 years so that my board of directors can buy a new vacation houses in Tahiti and i can furnish my chalais in France".
And so the devs, with desperation in their eyes, got to work to bolt on a multiplayer mod on a 15 year old game engine held together with spit, gum and duct tape. They told Todd they had no idea what they were doing, but Toddy insisted, so they did their best.
And here is the result: a shitty early access level survival game with SOME Fallout elements... Enjoy XD!

This game shows why they didn't make a Skyrim online kind of a thing
Because they can't
Have no skill to make a game like this
Never played ESO, but as far as I'm aware it wasn't that bad?
@Can Can We didn't want Skyrim online, we wanted Skyrim coop. ESO is a WoW clone with a Elder Scrolls skin.
@@earlofdoncaster5018 Yes, coop, that's all we want. even just two player i would be happy with. I remember someone (not sure if at Bethesda) saying "it wouldn't work because you can't have two Dragonborns so it would mess up the campaign together". My response was simple; "you have a companion that can follow you, so why doesn't one person simply act as the companion?"
Modders were actually making a coop Skyrim mod that looked quite good, but of course Bethesda was like "nope" and axed it
@stevie bops I know, but getting the bethesda singleplayer formula to work in mp is never gonna happen.
Forget War, Bethesda never changes. Same old regurgitated engines. No steam release cause they know people will refund straight away. Lazy a$$ devs. Certainly wont be getting ES6 on day 1 if this is anything to go by.... and Todd even annouced ES6 will not be using a new engine! Oh Joy! :/

@@zyrtor1 lol very probably

Sadly I'm sure if people keep buying Bethesda games they'll keep the Frankenstein's monster of the gamebryo engine going longer and longer until the games are totally unplayable even more than this one.
Nah gamebryo is fine. Todd didnt pay me to say this, trust me.
I can just imagine it getting to the point where a new Elder Scrolls is released that doesn't even work with the latest version of WINDOWS but they'll still sell it "It just works"..
@@OGPatriot03 uh huh?
@@MindlessShowCase At some point the old game engine won't work with the latest Operating Systems.
@@OGPatriot03 How so? It's based in C++. It's no different than Unreal Engine 4. Just because it was made a bit ago doesn't mean it can't be updated and improved. Also why would Gamebryo not work with current and new types of OS's? If they've been able to transfer it to the current software I don't see a reason for them not being able to now.
Hahaha and you didn't even get into the PVP.. ur brain would explode from disappointment if you touched that subject
i was expecting the PVP section to go like:
mack"let's get into the pvp. i met this guy, i managed to find one guy on this giant fuck off map. so i talked to him i said "y'alright, mate?" and then he started firing at me! and i thought "oh shit he's gonna blow me to shreds!" but uh..*heh*..a little UI came up after he hit me, asking if he had my consent to fight him......" and then probably lots of bell ringing.
People are defending this game for some reason. They are like oohhh it is gonna get better blah blah blah. So gullible. I can’t get behind iterative game development. I think it is a scam. They are conditioning us to be ok with is so they can slowly do less and less work and charge the same amount of money (and in some cases, even charge more money for DLC that puts things in the game that should have been there from the start!). Eventually, they will get to a point where they know they can just put off things forever with good PR people until literally everyone has forgotten about the game. And then guess what, they just made a crap game with minimal effort and got everyone to pay full price for it!
Is the reason why the main target audience for this game was consoles. Bethesda can't make any money on PC with the modding community putting out more Superior work
This point has to be taken to the extreme so that fanboys get what we mean. That said, I have a game out too.It's only a white square atm but I promise you it will get better. It's $60 if anyone wants to play it.
They have said that the SLC is going to be free, funded by the people buying skins in the atomic store.
I don't own it and I don't care for 76 but I'll defend it because a lot of the arguments against it seem really, really stupid.
People keeping saying it isn't fallout. . But we've been there before with Fallout 3 versus the older Fallouts. Now we expect Fallout games to be like Fallout 3. Besides, Fallout is just a brand name. An IP name. It can be anything they want, such as Fallout Shelter or now Fallout 76. It doesn't mean they aren't going to make Fallout games like 3 or 4 or Vegas. Halo Wars didn't replace the FPS Halo.
People want Obsidian? Lemme copy and paste a snippet from a 2011 article on the escapist:
"Obsidian Entertainment CEO Feargus Urquhart says that he's aware that his studio has a reputation for releasing bug-filled games, and that it is something that it needs to work on. So far, every game that Obsidian has released has been criticized for the number of glitches they contained, most recently - and most spectacularly in many cases - Fallout: New Vegas."
At launch New Vegas was a steaming pile of trash that couldn't be played due to bugs. For some reason people have forgotten. Or else they have Selective Memory.
People have been obnoxiously asking for the next game every month, every year. Demanding they make the next Elder Scrolls or Fallout. And, on top of that, an increasing number of people have been demanding multiplayer of some kind. With the prevalence of Fortnite and PUBG and all those shared world survival games. . . Where do you think Bethesda is gonna go or try to do to shut people up? It's a quick game thrown out there.
Mind you it's not what I wanted. I wanted a coop version of a main Elder Scrolls or Fallout. Just me and one other person. With sliders and toggles to protect my game from trolls so I can control what they can and cannot do in my game.
But Fallout 76 is no affront beyond it's hefty pricetag.
The game is good I put 14 hrs into it.
So Blizzard killed Diablo and Bethesda killed Fallout. What's next? Blizzard bricks WoW vanilla? Bethesda turns Elder Scrolls 6 into a phone app?
Ah finally the most honest down to earth reviewer gets 200k subs, You'll reach high man congrats!
Your mole on the machine bit was HILARIOUS!
Glad I cancelled my pre-order - somehow I knew it was going to be like this.
Thanks Mack for taking the punches!!
so u knew it was gona be like this and u preoredered still, naice
F̶̕e͘r͏̶n͠a̛nd̡́͘ǫ ͏͝Ho̸̧od̨͠͡ use your brain, don’t try to be funny. I pre-ordered based on early promise, I cancelled as more to me negative details came out that outweighed the early positive signs. Now you can argue for and against pre-ordering, be my guest, but I cancelled the pre-order before the game came out. Now have a nice day acting like a smart guy.
@@TK421-53 a smart guy wouldn't pre-order anything. Far less this game due to the controversy. At no point should you have considered a pre-order. By you pre-ordering, you incentivize developers/publishers to be greedy and lazy, neither of which allow for quality games to be made
never preorder anything, there's no point to it. Only the publisher benefits from pre-orders.
Like I wrote - you can discuss the merit of pre-ordering until you see blue in the face. I pre-ordered and cancelled my pre-order. Pre-order is like a reservation. Some people get worked up about it, but those same people rely on others to make up their minds. I make up my own mind, thank you. Close to 50, family man, gaming for decades.
I have just noticed something. When he first leaves the vault and comments on how shite everything looks. That path. Looks exactly like the beginning of skyrim. Can someone with this game check to see if the map has similarities with skyrim?
Yup, I felt like I was getting out of Helgen too for the first time too, and I think that's exactly what they intended. Cheap mind tricks.
M3galodon yea i don't have the game so cannot check but looks so similar. When the map is EXACTLY the same size as Skyrim too. I think they copied and pasted to be honest.
Thank you ... you saved my money... as a fallout fan I was going to buy the power armour edition. I did not pre-order it because I was sceptical so I waited for you review. I'm really sad, I wanted it for my fallout collection but buying it would mean supporting it. If the sales go down they will build a new and better one. Thanks again.
This is a games as service game. They likely wont scrap it and make a better one, theyll build on what they have here for years to come. if it does fail, theyll likely skip this type of game.
I've thoroughly enjoyed it on console with and without my friends. Most of the complaints I've seen are from pc players and people who didn't play for long enough to know the store gives you free credits for completing events which occur regularly. I've already got over 1300 credits earned. I didn't get free credits for buying the game they came as I completed the events. It seems a lot of reviewers don't have all the information and I'm glad he at least posted it as a review in progress since this review didn't have all the information either.
@@NicoleMead What do you say to the criticisms of bugs and VATS being unwieldy in combat? People have raised concerns about the lack of npcs and story but I think this game is more inline with like Rust, so that's neither here nor there. Th two former criticisms are some big ones though.
@SaintAlia_of_the_Games When it comes to VATS, there are cards that can be used to augment how it functions. I've found it useful as an auto-targeting system when you need to shoot a bunch of stuff in a hurry, like defending a warehouse or base from a wave of enemies, but I tend to enjoy targeting things on my own. There are NPCs in the form of robots and some ghouls/mutants who you can trade with. I personally love the way the story is handled because for me I feel like one of the lone survivors in a decimated world, figuring out what happened through the discovery of notes and halo tapes left by the deceased which gives me this sense of wanting to succeed in rebuilding where they failed. The main story so far is finding out what happened to the Overseer but I've been preoccupied in exploration. For me the game is nothing like Rust because it's not a free-for-all building survival PVP game. I love the way PVP is handled in this game because I'm not a fan of it and for me it doesn't make sense for fellow vault dwellers to kill each other when one player is unwilling without the killer being labeled a murderer. If two vault dwellers have a common dispute and want to take it outside, fair play but if you're rebuilding society you need some rules of combat. Even lock picking into someone's base will get you labeled as a criminal which I think plays more realistic than a world without consequence which is established in a lot of games with optional PVP elements.
On a side note about the cards, the video doesn't mention that they are shareable with other players. So, if your friend is weapon focused and you're melee focused you could share and swap to get cards that build your character the way you want.

I was on my way home from school when felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I thought: is this it? With a curious and excited face I looked at the notification on my phone. As I suspected it was a brand new WaB. My heart started to beat faster and I felt a sense hapiness through my entire body. I proceeded to put my phone into my pocket while I was imagining how many bells Mack was going to destroy this time... 2 or maybe 3?
As I got inside the front door there was no time to spare. I rushed into the kitchen grabbing a snack as I flipped up my chromebook and turned on TH-cam. I felt tears of hapiness running down my cheeks... When I finally got to see the video it felt like my heart skipped a beat over how good the video was. I felt a sense of satisfaction running through my body and it was in that time I remembered. Mack is the best gaming channel on yt.
Only 20 players

Even before this game came out I had already written off Bethesda as a developer who's heyday was in the last generation and it has stayed there.
Absolutely 110% agree!!

@@ohohthereshegoes4478 doesn't matter if they release it on my toaster, Bethesda still having to dine out on a last gen game looks poor.

The reason triple-A developers like Bethesda release shit like this is because people buy it and actually like it. They give you mindless loop grinding knowing that gamers will get addicted to picking up trash all day thinking they're doing something lol. It's the freakin' gamers to blame, not the developer. I went to massively-overpowered forums and most of the gamers there love it! The bar is set way low for the majority of gamers out there and they can charge you full triple-A price. So sad. The industry is ready to implode (thankfully Rockstar was able to release a proper game though).
Who cares if they like it if they keep buying them!
I wonder how many people actually like it, or how many people think they have to like it cause their favorite streamer says he/she likes it.
There are so many games these days that are such a huge step back from quallity and fun, yet get praised over and over. When ever a game gets a huge hype, people will claim they love it, even when its the biggest turd ever made. It's as if people have to like it or otherwise they no longer belong to the cool kids club.
Sure a x % will really like the game and that is fine, but i think the majority of those who claim they love it, only love it cause they feel like they have to say that.
CDPR will floor us again next year like R* did this year :-)
@@Jorendo Funny, I wondered how many are hating it because their favorite TH-camr says is complete trash. 9/10 complaints are from people that either are blindly parroting it or haven't played it at all.
Right now the reviews on Metacritic reflect this "I'm so glad I haven't played this..." Rather than rage against genuinely nasty practices like EA's staggered launch of a controversial shooter made by people calling critics "uneducated", they'll rag in the comment section about a disappointing game they've never played.
I doubt developers took years to learn their craft to only churn out copy n paste stuff
And to think that Starfield and Elder Scrolls 6 is going to use the same 20yr old engine....
20 year old engine? I don't think you understand how games are made mate. A game "engine" isn't a single piece of technology nor is it a program. It's a collective group of tech which makes up a so called "engine" which is also updated regularly. You don't know what your talking about. Think before you speak!
@@blue1984 You're.
It's not that the engine is old, it's that the engine is shit and the people managing the developers aren't trying to make a good game.
@@blue1984 To be fair their engine sucks bad and they ain't upgrading the cruicial things from what I have seen. First you are CAPPED at 60 FPS in this game which is absolutely terrible especially for a PC game. You can unlock FPS while messing with the game files but the physics goes haywire. Also field of view is supposedly locked to either physics as well or some other similar thing which means that this game wont simply get a FOV patch. This engine sucks rly bad and to think its some AAA developer behind it just makes the feel they are lazy and just milking the consumers with as little effort as possible.
@@Bajtjr I agree it could be better but when a Bethesda game releases its always got issues. I suppose that's part of the charm we've all got used to it over the years. I've only played maybe 4 hours of 76 and I've enjoyed it but the lack of NPC's is a real problem for me. I'm trying to play it as a single play experience with voice chat turned off. I love big open world's so I suppose I'm easily pleased but when Mack or other reviewers have slated it I'm not surprised as I can understand the criticism. It's something they've never done with the series before and early doors it's not looking good for them. Really gonna have to bring out another mammoth patch and hopefully add NPC's as quests being given just by robots and terminals I'm sure will get pretty tiresome after a while. But yeah I take your point.
Congrats on hitting 200k subscribers, Mack! You deserve so many more. You're one of the few really entertaining people in the online video game world. Most of them have as much personality as a sack of potatoes.

Yeah I was wondering that too. They made Fallout 3 look like the bombs had dropped a week ago as opposed to 200 years ago. Now they have a game where the whole "wasteland" look that they didn't understand from the first two games (they were literally in deserts, you morons) would fit a lot better and they make it look like it's flourishing.

Been waiting for you to rip this pile a new one. Bethesda used to be such a great company. It's sad to see what a money-hungry disgrace its become since the release of Fallout 4, which was an empty boring shell of an RPG.
"It's sad to see what a money-hungry disgrace its become since the release of Fallout 4" Euh....Bethesda is the first who used DLC in Oblivian. They made it a thing with the Horse Armor you had to pay real money for. They didn't became money hungry with Fallout 4, they been like that for a long time. Even with Skyrim, they never bothered fixing the majority of the bugs, they simply couldn't be arsed. You buy Skyrim on the Switch? You still got the day one bugs of Skyrim on PC and Xbox 360 in it. Why put effort in it when you can release the same game over and over without it costing you much while charing full price every time. Don't forget they also suddenly wanted to get money for mods in Skyrim and that backfired right in their faces.
No, they didn't became a money-hungry discrace with fallout 4, they became more hungry, but they already were a money-hungry discrace.

You're getting soft Mack ;)
But in all seriousness, nobody should ever buy this game, it was a failure before they even started on it.
Your channel is severely underrated I’ve been watching your reviews for years I have been waiting for them to blow up for a long time now keep it up lad💯
Pssssstt, I don't think Mack likes this game lmao.
I strapped in snugly with my seatbelt for this one.
Best two things about Fallout 1-2-3 and abit of Tactics, was creating YOUR player to YOUR specs/stats (and going back again and making them super weak but super smart.. or super strong and super dumb lol), and also the gritty apocalyptic conversations with NPCs (and then trying to have those same conversations with 10 strength and 1 charisma and 1 intelligence)
Best thing about 76, co-op... but its hard to get it happening sometimes. We haven't quite figured out how to complete missions together. Unlike for example The Division. Which was easy to make co-op missions happen.
I think 6 is a bit generous for graphics. Red dead 1 looks better and it came out on ps3 8 years ago.
Yep, no arguing that, creativity and effort really has become the contraband for this Gen of gaming, excluding good Indies and the rare 1st party exclusive
I'd say fo76 looks like a copy paste of the fallout 4 engine with some downgrades for "performance".
Half life 2 episode 2 looks better.
@@bunkerbill peperridgde Farm remembers
@@MixedReadings but is it so better to justify the time difference between the two?
12:04 wow that pop up, random enemy just popped out of existence. Again, Mack has pointed out all the important stuff. Another game I won't be trying.
Edit: Gratz on 200k subs. Well deserved!
Dissapointing... by the way, I found out about you today and I am so glad, you are one of the best reviewers I've watched. Cheers mate !
Tell you what Mack, i have not laughed so much about a review of a game for a long time. Truly excellent.
Got a fallout 76 ad lol
"There is a.... *shop*" Lol the delivery of that line cracks me up every time..
not a buy for me looks like a downgrade from fallout 4
When you hear Mack laugh and press the bell before the review starts you know your in for a hilarious time.
New bell mack? 7:07
Got a stock of 10 new bells last week, you could actually hear the postman walking up the path, he sounds like Santa
@@WorthABuyreviews expecting quality content for my Christmas present. Thanks Mack
Was crying with laughter when you was talking about the enemys skating and not looking at you :)
I’m a fallout fanboy and this is the first I haven’t purchased and definitely won’t
I'm leaving a like just for the way Mack said "rancid" 2:44 xD
I'm just waiting for bethesda to destroy the elder scrolls series in a similar way tbh
There is already an Elder Scrolls Online game for many years now. And it's a fantastic and successful MMO that sells very good and gets lots of high quality content updates.
So I guess you are too late with your wishes :)
@@tadeus7258 The Elder Scrolls Online wasnt developed by Bethesda but it is a good game, my brother plays it.
It's by Zenimax, the same corporate structure as Bethesda. Zenimax is also named on my Fallout76 box :)
Just saying, Elder Scrolls is safe from the online front, it's already done and decent.
They are ruining it though. To much cash shop tat and the content is a bit lackluster.
Bought the game on sale last night. This review is 1000000% spot on. Like, absolutely spot on.
0:04 This is a guy that's about to snap.
I don't understand censoring the cursing, but I love this series and the random bell ringing when you get going. lol
I knew this game would be a trash fire. It felt like the share holders made them make an online game because everyone else is doing it too. some games don't translate well to online games, not all games need a battle royale. share holders need to realize all they're doing is pushing their fans out the door for what is popular right now.
I love it when he talks shit about games. Love ya, Macksimus
I don't think I will buy this game even if it were for € 1 on Steam (maybe I would refuse it if it were free, maybe).
You were wrong about the leveling system. When you level up a special you get to choose a perk from that special right off the bat. The perk packs are a random bonus that comes every couple of levels. Cards are level locked, but not random at all
I just knew you’d love it Mac ;)
@bad4ever2010 No unfortunately I played it, I felt dirty afterwards, like I'd been violated by Todd Howard himself.
bad4ever2010 Yea lol it’s not like I watch this channel for the overly positive reviews hahaha ;p
You've saved me quite a bit over the years. Thank you so much for your reviews!
Goddam Mack, once again an awesome review. That bell took a beating haha. Thanks for the very entertaining useful video. Wont be buying this shite.
1:09 omfg that ghosting when you pick up that crock pot
