Considering every Fallout game from the last two decades made top 20, I’d say yeah it’s probably the show lol.

The biggest surprise is fallout 76. I thought it was universally disliked? Is it the fallout TV show causing it?

It has a really bad release. A few patches in, it turned into a good enough game. It’s still nowhere near as good as the heyday of Fallout with 2 and Tactics, but it’s a good enough game.

Does it feel like a Fallout game yet? I remember playing it and kind of hoped it would feel like a co-op fallout, but it’s just another survival and crafting game.

To be fair, most Fallout games at this point don’t feel like “Fallout.”

I tried playing it, at least a year after release? And within minutes I had no idea what I was supposed to “do” to where to “go” - it just dropped you. I mean to a point that’s “open world”, a genre I enjoy, but something was just missing.

FO4 also got an update to add an Enclave mission.

I bought it on sale for like 5 or 10 bucks. Play it on my deck. After they added some npc quest lines, and if you don’t mind being pay locked out of some customizations, it is an ok game.
I love the fallout universe and getting to experience some lore from so close to the bombs falling. But it is my least favorite out of all of the games. I even enjoy 4 better than it.

The TV show for sure helps. But people are playing it because they like it. There was a ton of work put into the game since its original release.
