20 Great Games That Still Get Unjustified Hate

As we established before, Fallout 76 suffers the same bad rap as Fallout 4 within the franchise's community, but the difference is that even people outside of Fallout circles would agree that the game deserves to be hated due to how buggy, underwhelming, and falsely advertised it was.

If there's a game that could act as living proof that Todd Howard loves to tell "sweet little lies," it would probably be Fallout 76. What Bethesda promised was the first multiplayer Fallout game that would allow you to explore and civilize a vast wasteland filled with immersive quests and an ever-evolving environment. What people got instead was an empty and tiny map with no human NPCs aside from generic raiders and predatory mechanics that forced people to pay money for items that would disappear from their inventory due to bugs.

However, this is the state of old Fallout 76. These days, the game has been steadily improving, with Bethesda expanding the world, fixing the bugs, adding actual human NPCs, and most importantly, toning down its pay-to-win elements.

What truly makes this game great, though, is its community that is helpful towards new players and develops West Virginia with beautifully detailed bases that make the map totally worth exploring.
