I’m still waiting for Fallouts 5-75.
Breaking their weak ass player count record for 76 is such a low bar. For reference Fallout4 is at 471,955 palworlds peak player count was 2,101,535 and stardew is 236,614. Puts 39,434 into perspective
The show has been surprisingly good. Especially impressive since it would have been super easy, barely an inconvenience, to screw up.
Can’t have been much of a record then, I never bought it, most of my mates didn’t buy it.
The all-time peak sits, as of writing, at ~41k and was set less than 24 hours ago.
The peak when the game first launched was ~33k, a record it broke last Sunday, some three days ago.
Completely unsurprised by this.
Game has been lit, it’s fun seeing all the new players
Just started playing New Vegas, never played it before. I’ve played FO3 and FO4 though. I love Fallout lore.
Want to hijack your comment to tell people that might not know about the tale of two wastelands mod which combines 3 and nv into one fun game and does so really well. You need to own a copy of both.
I’ve been playing through it, just about finished up in fo3 and about to head over to nv.
I hope you enjoy it! It’s such a good game
Dropping the price of FO76 to $8 probably had something to do with that.
You can also get it free from prime gaming right now.
Meaning they will give you a free copy to keep, not just during a promo event.
You could also play for free on Steam for the past week
Yeah but prime gives you a free copy to keep.
Right, but also there was an increase from players on Steam who don’t have Prime and were taking advantage of the free week.
For anyone not wanting to play 76, and to try Fallout 3/New Vegas for the first time, or for a different run, I HIGHLY encourage you to get the Tale of Two Wastelands mod. Once set up (I got ALL the optional mods that they have a link to or something) you will have a better experience than vanilla Fallout 3, and more cohesion between the gameplay of FO3 and NV.
For anyone wanting to play 76, just play literally any other fallout.
In just not interested in anything Bethesda any more. I played a ton of FO3 and Oblivion back in the day. A good bit of Skyrim. New Vegas was pretty decent. But the engine just feels so incredibly stale and outdated. The dead eyed characters barking their lines at you. Everything just feels clunky and unimmersive. It feels more like a chore than a fun game.
I ended up getting Starfield on release day for about $30 off through some deal, and I still felt ripped off. Honestly cannot be bothered to care about the next Elder Scrolls or whatever at this point.
It’s weird, playing fallout and starfield on their engine feels terrible but playing skyrim on it feels great. I don’t know how to explain it but I think the new elder scrolls will actually be good.
