Atlantic City Sucks

[AbsynthMinded]

I have hated the responders from the start. The story is BS. They would not survive, they would not waltz into the Whitespring. Every faction in the zone would try to wipe them out daily. Shin would march in and kill them all to obtain that Vertibird. The Raiders would overwhelm them by the numbers to get into the Whitespring. MODUS would immediately begin manipulating the situation..

On top of that the 'adventure zones' likewise are BS in terms of Fallout Canon. It's all janky BS that irritates me at every point of interaction. But now the only scrap of story advancement is IN Atlantic City and not WV...

First major task, debase and disrespect YOUR character by being forced to impersonate a clown...

What DEI hack of a writer came up with this trash?

From a character standpoint I'd kill every living thing till I found the mcguffin, or someone begged for their life in exchange.. But NOOOOO gotta play on rails and only have the option to do the BS these developers demand you do. Regardless of play style.. WTF was the point of having a 5000 caps buy out at the start if it wasn't the way to leap frog over this BS.

I could develop better story from a coma.

Agreed about the New Vegas comments above. Feels like that was the last really good fallout, from a story/immersion perspective. There was choice and consequences. You didn't feel like you were playing to grind your camp, or other unlockables. You just wandered around, explored, and immergent things happened out of the chaos.

I was so hoping fallout 76 would be like ESO where they would release new story content on the regular. Add new open world areas to explore, with new enemies, new weapons, new NPCs and side quests, etc.

Unfortunately what we got has been just grind and camp unlockables, with minimal story content, which for what is offered is quite weak narrative wise and doesn't help immersion as much as it could.

The story in this game is a mess, I don't get why the factions toy can get rep with are random people or raiders, I would have killed them instantly if I could, all this while modus and the bos stand still in their bases doing absolutely nothing, in this fallout the enclave should be at its peak, it's true that modus ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up everything and basically went mad, but you're telling me that the enclave that is in control of all its major resources in this time period wouldn't try to get its base in Appalachia back?

Instead what do we get, random common npcs I couldn't care less about and raiders that I either help or ignore.

I think I never listened to a dialogue in this game, after completing one of the first quests, the one at the bar where the cow sentry bot is, and the ghoul guy talks with you about boring and useless things, the only cool quest was the enclave one for me, the bos quest line has always been the same since fallout 3 basically, the outcasts and the Lyons (basically civil war) NV McNamara VS Hardin (internal struggle, still better than 4 and 76) 4 all is good but then one of them is a synth, and in 76 once again bos is dealing with internal struggles, in every single fallout game the BoS biggest issue we have to fix for them is themselves.

Guess I'll have to check out the new Atlantic City soon, with all these positive reviews.🙃

It is unquestionably.. an 'experience' in gaming.. Results may vary wildly.. That is as fair as I can be.. I despise it with a passion, as I do with so very many design decisions made to this point.

+1 for FONV Those people cared, and it showed. Yet Bethesda screwed them out of major cash. I will always believe the decision was out of spite. Bethesda could see how much better Obsidian was than them with their own asset base. Todd may be a genius to have begun the Journey, but his Ego refused to let his betters carry forth the vision beyond him.
