Will Fallout 76 DESTROY the Franchise? (ShaddyCast) - General

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuOwKKpkjSE

That is the dumbest title I have seen ever

Seeing as how Elder Scrolls Online hasn't... probably not. ...I really hate clickbait.

So he spends 8 minutes to say maybe it will be good. God, I hate this channel now.

Watched it on 1.5x the speed and yeah that title is clickbaity as shit. Honestly I wonder about how Bethesda intends to even balance things going on their plate right now. This whole Starfield thing won't be releasing until the next generation of consoles, then TES VI years after that, then Fallout? If they intend to juggle 3 franchises at once, I just don't know how they're possibly going to accomplish that without me waiting a half century for the next installment. Hell unless the next generation kicks off in 2019 (which seems unlikely) and they reeeeally rush this, then Skyrim will likely be over 10 years old by the time that TES VI comes out. This is an awfully long time between games. Even Fallout and TES felt like so much to the point that I had wished they'd either buy out Obsidian and have them work on Fallout while they focus on TES. Now they're adding a new series to the mix. Mneyghgh. I honestly think that's a big reason why Fallout 76 is even a thing. It's going to be a loooooooooooooooong time before we get a new Fallout main series title or equivalent. Either way, I kinda feel like the Bethesda train is coming to a stop if you're a fan of it for the reasons I am. I doubt TES VI will do any better at living up to expectations of grumpy assholes like me who liked Morrowind and Oblivion and New Vegas. I'd love to be pleasantly surprised but if the rumors that they're putting randomly generated worldspaces in to TES VI pan out, then, yeah, probably not.

it will not

I mean BGS dosen't understand the franchise or its own games to begin with so I don't know how it could be any worse after 4.

I honestly forgot this channel existed. It's a shame Shoddycast are resorting to this type of monthly filler content. Are there any progress updates to the movie project they announced almost a year ago?

yes we definitely have all the information needed to give a definitive answer and are no way just sensationalising someone with the slight amount of hesitance to it. /s Is this how shamelessly transparant clickbait has become? I just know I'm going to see this video in my reccommendations any time I watch anything related to video games, which is all the time.

Well if Brotherhood of Steel couldn't kill the Fallout franchise, what could?

Given how it's not narratively written and isn't meant to be a solo experience like the others, it's unlikely.

The source of Bethesda's very interesting writing isn't writing for Beth anymore so there's hope. Still design director and he's buds with Todd so he's not leaving the company.

He was labeled as lead designer and writer on 3, (probably Skyrim) and 4, but now he's listed as design director. He's an okay writer when it comes to side quests (did Oblivion and Skyrim's Dark Brotherhood quests) but shits the bed with main quests and worlds. He also designed every version of the lockpicking minigame. They have writers just for DLC projects, wouldn't be surprised if Todd and co got the writer for Far Harbor a promotion. But yeah I asked a while ago in the Fallout thread, don't think I got concrete confirmation but no one refuted me either

Will Jinx MURDER SUICIDE Chad the goat man?

this video was overall shoddy

no, he's saying that fallout 76 will be the best bethesda fallout game because it will have no traditional story telling, which bethesda such at, just environmental story telling, which bethesda rock at, (and of course through roleplaying). i'd say i agree with that for the most part.

nice try dude, I will never do that.

Call me crazy, but I actually really liked Oblivion's lockpicking minigame as it actually gave you a reason to invest in relevant skills. In Fallout, there's no need to ever get the last lockpicking perk, and in Skyrim, I didn't bother with literally any of them in any of my many saves and hours playing it as it's fairly easy to pick a master lock with 20 skill, although it can take a little while and isn't an easy thing to do before you've accrued your 900,000 lockpicks within 3 hours playtime.

If they're sticking to smaller, world told stories it might just be Bethesda's best because they love shitting the bed with any sort of big main quest. I'm happy knowing I won't have to find [family member] for this game.

Plot twist, a family member is looking for you because you got lost/kidnapped.

Regardless about what happens with gameplay or anything. Massive kudos to the entire team for being able to take the creation engine, tear it apart to kingdom come, and then insert quake netcode and support a world were multiple players are properly supported. Who knows, maybe the TES6 might support a second player since the engine now has the compatibility. Allowing still a single player focus, but not going as far as a fully multiplayer experience. It's up to them how they want to do their games though. But there a few unofficial methods in running multiplayer in bethesda games, so there is a market for it I guess

Good, hopefully they'll move away from the radiant quest garbage as well, but I have a feeling thats whats going to power this game outside of player interaction with no human NPC's.

Why is clickbait garbage like this like this allowed, but when Videogamedunkey makes an April Fools video about returning to League, and it's actually a video of him tearing Spiderman 3 apart, he has to change the title and thumbnail so he's not "lying."

who watches this shit, I'm sick and tired of seeing all there stupid clickbait "IT DIDN'T DIE IT WAS MURDERED" or "THIS WILL DESTROY THE FRANCHISE!!!" videos

That's because it is the same level of trash. The guy in this video works on a separate video series on the Game Theory channel.

God damn this channel went to shit. Just go back to doing Storyteller or finally continue Psycho please.

Have they dropped the plot that was going on with the Storyteller? I stopped watching the series a few years ago when a 15 minute video had 3 minutes worth of story telling and the rest of the 12 minutes was about the Storyteller getting abducted by the NCR at gunpoint or some rubbish.

It was already destroyed so I mean, they can't do much more.
