fallout 76 is already 35 dollars, 10 days after launch

Some were surprised when Bethesda dropped the price of Fallout 76 to $40 for Black Friday, since the game was only released last week. If that wasn't enough of a discount for you, the price has dropped yet again—you can buy the game right now from Amazon for just $34.99.

it just works
Honestly what its worth
What a way to make your fans never buy your titles as full price ever again.
20 and no higher
$35 too much.
You'll have to pay me to play this game tbh
Too bad 76 will actually do nothing in the long run and everyone will just eat up the next thing Bethesda puts out because people never learn

Your payment is me allowing you to keep your life. Now please, buy the game.
Just imagine pre ordering a game a week before black friday. Imagine buying the hundred dollar complete version of this game.
Bethesda saw an opportunity to make a quick buck and because the game got released like right after black ops 4 and red dead 2 it'll likely be forgotten in a few weeks. The core fans might be wary of their dealings but their general bottom line won't be effected for fallout 5 or whatever they do next.
After actually playing it, $30 is the max price I would give it, $35 is a bit pushing it.
It's funny and all, but this is exactly what the game needed. It should have launched around this price. Honestly, I'm amazed that they had the balls to 1. launch the game at full price, and 2. then promptly drop it to a much more reasonable one (offering little recourse to those who preordered it)
I know that this is just a temporary price drop (I assume, anyway) but no one is going to shell out full price for this game after this. Why would they? The thing could, and should, drop again at any moment.
Pretty good indicator that it undersold badly, Skyrim was only like $5 off after launch on a holiday sale.
The only game I remember doing this recently was Titanfall 2
That’s about the right price if it actually was finished, polished, and on a good engine.
As someone who paid 60 dollars for the game.
It's sad to see that there is this over reaction to this now. I paid 60 dollars for it, was it worth it? No. Is it as bad as people are making it out to be? No. I think most people are mad because they want NPCs in the game, you know the ones that say 1-3 things and all have the same two voice actors all across the map, or the completely shitty main story that is fed like a spoon full of warm ice-cream and skunk beer into someones mouth. Fallout 4 was an awful, buggy mess when it first launched and it still is to this day if you don't download all the unofficial fixes, and don't even get me started on the horrible, plot filled hole of the main story of Fallout 4 and Skyrim. People just had the luxury of tricking themselves into thinking that paying full price for a shitty game is okay "Because you can download mods to fix it."
This is the same quality as their last two games, they just can't make the community clean it up this time. (Or, at least for another year.)
I had a good feeling that this game was going to bomb
Andromeda did it as well.
Titanfall 2 is such a good game, shame that EA made sure it failed.
I'll wait for 20, and then wait for the private servers. Once those are rolling I'm gonna join the hilarity that will be fucking F76 Roleplay.
If it drops to 20 or below I might actually get it lol.

Controversial opinion: I like it (it just needs more work)
Not to sound like a whiteknight autist but not a single person I know thats played the game actually dislikes it, meanwhile the people I've chatted with who complain about it are people that have never played it (star citizen 2.0)
I think this is honestly where most of the outrage comes from. People just got sick of it.
The backlash to Fallout 76 doesn't really exist in a vacuum.
There was a time when Bethesda would get a free pass because nobody really made these huge open world games like they did. But when the rest of the industry is now producing stuff that is surpassing Bethesda's open world games, and yet Bethesda are still consistently releasing broken products, but now with a noticeable decline in the quality of their writing as time goes on, people are going to start losing interest.
There's been a growing sentiment in Bethesda's fanbase that they have been gradually abandoning their long time fans to pursue a more casual audience for years. People have been worried about Bethesda "streamlining" and "dumbing down" their franchises since I was in my teens.
So it's no surprise that Bethesda's newest Fallout game being an always online rust clone (marketed primarily at things like sports events instead of towards existing fans) was going to be the final straw for a lot of people, especially when the game's quality is even more slapdash and janky than previous entries.
When it goes down to $10 I MIGHT buy it
They never expected anything more. They put the minimum investment into this game and expect the maximum potential profit which can be gleaned from coasting off of brand name.
You' have to be a special kind of tard to buy FO76.
That's at the very least an indication of some terrible marketing. If FO76 has any interesting selling points I certainly haven't seen them.
Fallout 76% off
What I wanted was a Borderlands style 1-4 player coop Fallout game. And I'm fairly sure I'm not alone.
Usually I'd be all over Fallout but I stopped caring about this one on the announcement day. What a waste of potential.
Can someone explain to me why it's only $35 dollars but in the UK its £35? How does that work?
Because $ = € = £. duh.
