I played it like a year ago and it was fun. People were incredibly nice to newcomers, quite a bit to do, and co-op stuff was fun. Its worth a shot, unless something happened in the past year.

Better off playing the main series then. FO76 is good (and cheap) but for a first FO experience...there are better options. Go play 3, NV or 4 instead.

I actually liked it and got it for like $5 a year or so ago. Played it with my brother and thought it was actually pretty good. But this was after all the updates with the human NPCs added and such. It's basically an online Fallout 4, so if you liked that and have someone that could play with you it's pretty fine imo.

Anyone saying no either just doesnt like or or are under the impression the game has not once changed since launch. It is well worth playing and the community in it is pretty damn strong still. If you are getting it via PS+ it doesnt hurt to play it.

It's alright, but isn't as good as any of the other Fallout's. And the other MMO's are better in experience.

If it's free, worth a try to see yourself though tbh. It is still a modern (Bethesda) Fallout in the end, so if you've liked them then you'll likely enjoy 76.

I put about 30-40hrs into it and wanted to keep playing but a friend couldn't play anymore.

Playing alone didn't last long though.

It's basically Fallout 4, if playing by yourself. It has quests and NPC's now, so very easy to treat it just like 4 I found when I briefly played it.

I bought it unfortunately around Thanksgiving for $40. Hadn't gotten anything for myself in a while. I don't like the forced survival mode, don't like the way the perk system works in practices don't like the level scaling... Id like it better if I could just explore.

There's no negatives to ignoring the survival shit. You only bother eating and drinking if you want the benefits.

I find these sorts of games atrocious to play with other people.

Sure, for endgame events/raids/etc that works out fine and you may very well need the help, but when I'm just going through the game I want to immerse myself, read all the lore, listen to every recording, etc. and that becomes a fuckin pain in the ass to do with someone breathing down your neck all the time, urging you to hurry up all the time even if they aren't necessarily saying out loud to do so.

All that being said, I would just suggest that if you liked FO4, you'll probably be fine with this game. There's some altered/scruffier elements due to the game being always online (one of the biggest immediately obvious changes being that VATS can no longer slow down time and instead acts more like just an autoaim), but the core gameplay never felt drastically different than FO4 to me.

Can't done from the mobile/phone app, need to go through the PS5 store app on console itself in order to redeem it. Stop blaming others because you didnt do it properly.

Literally your first post and topic title imply you already have some form of plus subscription which is all you need to play either 4 or 76. Or at the very least you're getting one soon. That's on you if you were deliberately misleading but if you have access to 76 right now through plus then you also have access to 4

Any subscriber on any tier has access to the free games. But only if they do it through the console which Ive said 3 times now. You keep posting mobile screenshots. Getting the games through the mobile app is not the same as going through the app on the ps5 itself. So go through the ps5 store app and see fucking results.

like I showed in the goddamn video I linked.

Wow this topic derailed hard lol. But yeah, I have a PS5 and can confirm there's a collection of games that are free for the normal PS Plus tier.

That was introduced long before they added those extra tiers, so they were smart enough not to suddenly lock it behind a higher tier.

And TC, Fallout 76 is a decent game now. They fixed their stupid decision of not having any NPC's. So now it feels much closer to Fallout 4.
