RE: Fallout 76: How Not to Launch a Game
The only part here that I disagree with is being able to keep it going off pre-orders alone.
Despite the 'no Refunds' policy, they are in fact giving out a lot of refunds to people, and considering the myriad of people complaining, there has likely been a lot of refunds issued.
I honestly think even with the price drop, an early death is going to be the most likely outcome of 76 at this point.
I mean, I'm not sure about the server costs, but I don't think they're that large. Maybe I'm wrong, but Bethesda already has ESO servers and has probably either figured out how to use those for Fallout 76 or get really cheap server setups.
It's probably the refunds and whatever they have to do to keep from being sued over the "canvas" bag that will lead to any issues.
I don't know that Fallout 76 is going to necessarily suffer an early death, but it's basically Bethesda's Fallout Tactics.
