And to think that back in 2015 I was complaining about how Fallout 5 wouldn’t release until 2020, and how that was such a long wait. But now we’re looking at a ~20 year gap between titles. How is that even possible?!

They made 76.. Say what you want, but it was a fallout game and was made in between those dates you mentioned. I’m just stating facts here. I just did a fo4 100% completion and then the show dropped. To get the itch by I didn’t wanna start fo4 again, especially before an update gets launched so I have 76 a try again and wouldn’t you know it, it’s super fun.

The problem with 76 was, it just felt like a bad multiplayer mod for Fallout 4.

It is not what people would proclaim as a mainline game. You can't look at what Fallout 3, NV, 4 did for the series and say it does the same. It felt completely like an addon.

Yes, it's better now, through sheer retconning of their ENTIRE premise and idea, and binning nearly all of it to turn it into what we're wanting from Fallout, yeah they finally got there... ish.

Yeah but the way the guy above talked about it, was as if Bethesda havent done anything with the IP in 9 years. regardless of how you feel about it, they made another title, and are still adding huge content to the game.
