    There’s no reason to assume this isn’t just another cash grab, like the shitty nuka cola rum, or the canvas bag made of cheap nylon. I’ll wait for the release and reviews before I ever give Bethesda a dime.

      It is just a cash grab. Bunch of creative minds create a nuclear fallout package that needs you to go online to redeem it.
      They can’t even grasp the most simple of concept their games have: stuff that works hundreds of years after a nuclear fallout.

      A real storage case would have an offline collection of the games, a guide on the basics of survival after nuclear war, a simple radiation badge and maybe even a glowing Nuka-Cola bottle.
      It’s that simple. (Relatively.)

    They have a lot of balls to drop this after the Fallout 4 special edition. And to include Fallout 76 as ‘a hit game’. I thought it was FTP now?

      It seems like it was free to play only for a week, during their 5 year anniversary.

      Dang, I missed it and I would have liked to at least try it, but… eh. Probably nothing of worth was lost.

    So it’s a $50 bomb model? I mean that’s not bad I guess. Assuming it’s a decent model and not like the garbage Bethesda usually ships nowadays.
