10 "WTF Did I Just Pay For?!" Video Games

5. Fallout 76

Bethesda and bugs; it's a tale as old as time.

This monolithic developer is responsible for some of the most influential role-playing-games the industry has ever seen. However, there's always this lurking sense that something is wrong with Bethesda, as even their best titles are full of game-breaking glitches, dodgy character animations, and more.

While players can forgive most of their games, there was no such patience for Fallout 76, which was so broken it destroyed faith in the franchise almost overnight.

There was so much wrong with Fallout 76 upon its release that it could take up a whole list solo. The title was jam-packed with bugs, including poorly loading textures, invisible enemies, terrible frame rate issues, game crashes, and plenty more.

Making all this worse was the fact that it also came loaded with micro transactions and pay-to-win incentives. Plus, the core title wasn't all that interesting, as the quests were uninspired, and the gameplay was dull.

The title is in a much better state now with all its post-release content. But, there was a time where spending money on this game was akin to burning your wallet with a Flamer.
