E3 2019: 10 Biggest Surprises That Blew Us Away
7. NPCs In Fallout 76
No one really expected there to be anything exciting related to Fallout 76 at E3, but then Bethesda announced this.
76 has been struggling to maintain or cultivate a playerbase ever since its disastrous launch back in November of last year, with each content update bringing little to enhance what many consider to be a disastrous experience.
Part of the reason for the lack of interest initially was definitely the lack of any actual NPCs, with the absence of such non-player characters draining almost all of the rich story content that the series is known for. Finally, however, Bethesda are adding NPCs to the game later this year.
Whether or not this addition manages to save such a mess of title remains to be seen, but the announcement of this update was certainly a big surprise - and a welcome one at that (unlike the announcement of a battle royale mode that was also coming to the game).
