10 Most Disappointing Video Games Of The GENERATION

3. Fallout 76

Fallout 76 wasn't disappointing because we had massively high expectations for it as an individual game, but more for how Bethesda would surely pull their act together after Fallout 4.

Whilst that game is divisive at best, it showed to fans and detractors alike that the studio's insistence on using the same outdated tech over and over, was going to hit breaking point eventually.

Fallout 76 is every bit that breaking point, in mission statement to final product; its inexcusably broken launch state to the whirlwind of consumer-abusing insanity that became its pre-order bonuses and monthly rollouts.

All the while the microtransaction storefront was functional - as it always is in every broken game - but playing Fallout 76 felt like an alpha for something that never came.

Storage chest glitches wiped out entire inventories overnight, the most loyal fans were lied to about which version of a deluxe edition bag they'd be getting, and all-round there was an air of being thoroughly disappointed. In Fallout 76, sure - this was coming after Fallout 3 and New Vegas were received with open arms - but in Bethesda too, for falling quite so far.
