I actually just got back into Fallout 76. I remember when it first came out in 2018 and it was super buggy and maddeningly frustrating. God, that was a rough, glass-shattering moment for Bethesda. Then, fast forward, got a base PS5 in 2023, because of ridiculous buyouts and resale (PS effing nightmare), and still couldn't get back into Fallout 76 with all the other games out at the time.
Now, I come back to it and finally it has a PS5 version coming out? Yeah, I'll play it and test it for them. But Bro... it took them 6 years after the PS5 was released to finally drop the next-gen standard. Correction! About to drop the standard.
If Bethesda is reading this, all I can say is: I'm glad you all decided to slow down after the abominable release of Fallout 76, but keep in mind, you are setting a standard for all other gaming companies. cough CD Projekt Red with Cyberpunk 2077 cough If it becomes a norm that all games are super buggy on release, eventually the gaming industry is going to lose face if it hasn't already been done. So please, for the love of God, don't rush anything, take your time and have passion for the games you all are developing. I fell in love with Bethesda when I discovered Morrowind, and I continue to love you guys, but don't tarnish that love with half-assery. Prove Bethesda is still strong with solid releases! And to be honest, some new original games would be sublime as well (remember Prey?) instead of remastered classics, but one thing at a time, Bethesda!

Re: Bethesda Needs You to Test Its PS5 Version of Fallout 76 Before Launch
@CallMeDuraSouka
Four game of the year awards say otherwise, buddy. I'll just drop facts on ya.
And I thought they made Prey, but you're right.
