Vault 76

[Pixie]

God I love this game.

It makes me sad that there's so much bullshit around it and so much of Bethesda falling on their face.

Because the core gameplay is fucking awesome. The world is awesome. It's just straight up fun for hours and hours. I have been playing the crap out of it every chance I get since the day I got it and I see no stopping any time soon.

[Sssith]

Almost tempted to join you.  But I have too much going on to add this to it.

[Pixie]

Still playing this every day, several hours a day. It's not my GOTY but it is the most fun I've had with a game all year.

I haven't encountered virtually any of the supposedly rampant bugs and issues people (read: streamers) are bitching about. Game runs fine. I never get disconnected. It never crashes. I haven't hit any significant bugs... like the most serious bug I've had was a chinese bot that was way up the air somewhere instead of on the ground, so I had to shoot it out of the sky.

Also, I adore my current character (my 4th one). <3

[Sssith]

Glad you continue to enjoy.  Busy with other things or I might give it a whirl.

Wowzer

[Sssith]

Given how badly they screwed up the launch it is really surprising.  I didn't think it was doing well enough to support this. 

[Pixie]

Yeah, I'm pretty excited. Private servers and infinite crafting stash! Woo! I'll be subbing soon. Possibly tonight (haven't looked yet to see if the option is live or not)

[Pixie]

Am now subbed.

[Pixie]

3 hours of play later: subbing was totes worth it.

[Kasferatu]

Luckily they only needed one subscriber to keep the development budget for this game afloat, so Pixie has saved the day.

[Pixie]

Have you actually played it?

[Kasferatu]

Of course not, I haven't even played Fallout 4 yet!  Maybe in 5-10 years time.

Although the 5-6 people I know who have played it that aren't you gave opinions ranging between terrible and mediocre.

[Sssith]

I'm glad you are happy, but my puzzlement seems to be validated by reactions.

on a different note, did anyone see that "Doom64" is coming to PC.  That is Doom from the 90s, the kinda port for the N64 which from I hear looks different, different maps etc.  Someone thought it would be good to bring it to PC 20+years after first release.  Of course there has been unofficial ways to get this content on PC, and now they are trying to give it as a bonus for preorderin the next main Doom game.
