Fallout 76 Review

Emma and Rachel Episode 12

Join the ladies this week for a dive into the murky waters of Fallout 76, the online action-RPG by Bethesda. This multiplayer game released in 2018 to a divisive reception, and we...might have had some of these same experiences. We chat about post-apocalyptic interior decorating, NPC boyfriends and the joys of making your own fun.

From the show:

Games featured in our Ending Spiel and listener segment: Knights of the Old Republic II, The Last of Us Part II

There are still multiple factions in Fallout 76, though the extent of the immersion seems to vary a lot from Skyrim. Take a gander for yourself if interested:

From a brief google search, it looks like you can not unlock more blueprints from the atomic store, just skins. Blue prints have to be acquired in game.

Links to articles about the bags and helmets mentioned. The helmet FYI was not a part of the collector's edition, but sold separately at GameStop:

Again, the reviews for the Last of Us Part II that Rachel mentioned on Polygon, Kotaku, and Skill Up on youtube. The reviews are spoiler free, but be very wary when looking online about this game since the spoilers are plentiful in comments, other articles, etc.
