There seems to be a large amount of hatred towards this game. People are talking about how it's the worst Fallout in history and the worst game ever made in existence. I want to give an unbiased point of view on this and from about 60 hours of playing this game I can finally give my own opinion. It's just good, not great, nor is it bad either. There is a story that exists in this game, albeit, not as cinematically told as other Fallout games it is still there and not completely bad. I'd say it's maybe the same quality of Fallout 4's storyline just not told through living human NPC's. There are NPC's that exist in this game, some better than others. But the ones that are good have pretty decent dialogue that shouldn't be underestimated. The content that is in this game is pretty big and it seems odd to hear people say that there isn't as much stuff in this game in comparison to other Fallout games and I say that's just not true. In fact, there's almost an overwhelming amount of content in the game. On the topic of multiplayer I believe that it could have been implemented a bit better. The PVP aspects are buggy and don't really satisfy people that want a good PVP experience. But, the PVE experience with friends is something that can't really be captured by any other games. In fact, Fallout 76 does an amazing job at giving the feel of curiosity and happiness when you and your group of friends are discovering the Toxic Valley for the first time and have to fight a grafton monster. The world here is the biggest Fallout world to date with an extreme amount of diversity in creatures and things to fight with lots of loot. Gameplay-wise this Fallout is at it's peak in quality. But that's where it ends there, with the amount of performance issues and bugs and crappy end-game content it doesn't improve on anything besides just playing with friends. All in all, the game isn't as bad as people say it is but it's certainly not one of Bethesda's best games to date
TL;DR- The game has it's ups and downs, not nearly as bad as some say it is but it's not amazing either, quality of the game greatly increases when you play with friends but that's about it. One should buy it if it's on sale or if you have friends that want to play it.
