I’m playing Fallout 76 instead. Let that sink in. What’s commonly considered what one of the greatest disasters of recent gaming history is still more interesting and a more fun game than DDO with the constant unwanted changes and rushed, mediocre content SSG’s been churning out.
I will to my dying breath defend that Fallout 76, bar the broken/Bethesda Jank at launch, was a good game.
What it suffered was a bunch of singleplayer fags crying wolf without even giving the game a chance and trying it.
Seriously, I have a feeling their reactions is the reason that Starfield and future Bethesda titles aren't getting coop despite the tech existing now.
Which is a fucking shame. Because I've wanted to play coop with my buddies in Fallout 4 or Skyrim for years.
Plus, 76 had the balls to actually give you an refreshingly different experience at launch. A fallout devoid of human life; a world that's just the irradiated wasteland. Beasts, extremely mutated humans, and robots. I enjoyed that; I loved the eerie and lifeless atmosphere. And regret that they listened to blowhards and rushed to readd 'npcs' to the game world so quickly. They should have let the game cook for 1-2 years without human NPCs and let the world slowly be brought back to life via community events and storyline updates. But nah.
