9 Amazing Levels Trapped In Terrible Video Games
5. The Mistress of Mystery - Fallout 76
Fallout 76 made a Mass Effect: Andromeda sized oops when it took everything that everybody loved about its predecessors and threw it out the window in favour of a bunch of features and mechanics that nobody really wanted in the first place. While Fallout 76 has since come full circle with some solid new DLC and realised maybe it should have included NPCs and embraced solo players from the beginning, not everything about the vanilla release was awful.
While a bunch of people gave up on it too early to find out, there are some solid quests in here and yes we’re going with a questline equalling a level here, just go with me.
The Mistress of Mystery quest is as intriguing as the name implies. The character actually first makes an appearance in Fallout 4 but in Fallout 76 you’re chasing down what exactly happened to Olivia Rivers, her mother, and the Order of Mysteries. To tell you here would be giving it away but suffice it to say this quest is one that works best because it actually takes advantage of the world state where there are no NPCs. The mystery unravels through your own investigation and it has that classic Fallout-grade writing that everyone went into 76 hoping to find.
It might not be enough to get you to go back in but it’s a good treat for those who might have slogged through an experience which is not the Fallout game they were looking for.
