  - Typically, yesh. -- nm - Qale Nov 20, 12:48 1
    - TY! -- nm - Spawn Nov 20, 12:52

Alright, I’m going to go get Fallout 76. I’ve decided if Forbes hates it, I’m going to love it. -- nm - Qale Nov 20, 12:04 14
- I've read the Forbes and Eurogamer reviews. They're similar and pretty accurate. - Mop Nov 20, 13:06 2
  - I like the idea that it's a ghost town to be honest. And I know people haaaated durability in Breath of the Wild, so there is that. Guess I'll see! -- nm - Qale Nov 20, 13:08 1
    - It's frustrating in BotW, sure...but it's also a bit challenging. nm - The Mayor of Slamtown Nov 20, 13:11
- Here's Eurogamer's review. -- (link) - Shaun Nov 20, 12:23 1
  - The reviews are all pretty much saying the same things. So they probably aren’t wrong, but that doesn’t necessarily make it a no-go for me. - Qale Nov 20, 12:28
- I don't even want it as a gift. I'll exchange it. - Krusty Nov 20, 12:17 4
  - I definitely get that it’s not Fallout 4. -- nm - Qale Nov 20, 12:19 3
    - Which was not nearly as good as Fallout 3. They're not trending in the right direction. -- nm - Krusty Nov 20, 12:21 2
      - I’ve barely played 3 via GamePass. I may give it another go down the line. It’s... a challenge to go backwards. - Qale Nov 20, 12:23 1
        
        I can see that being a bit of an issue. -- nm - Krusty Nov 20, 12:39
- their review pretty much hit all the reasons why it is probably a hard pass for me. - Jovian Nov 20, 12:13 1
  - I think this is going to be kind of Animal Crossing, stress relief type play for me. Just collect my goodies, survive, and zone out. -- nm - Qale Nov 20, 12:19
- It’s a bold strategy, Cotton. -- nm - Volnelk Nov 20, 12:09 1

  - I don't think Venom is going to get much Oscar buzz. -- nm - Volnelk Nov 20, 11:30 2
