People even started to use support tickets as a way to chat between themselves:retarded:

The whole ordeal FO76 went through, the constant stream of bad news that never ends. It feels all so... unreal. :? Somebody please tell me this is just a crazy experiment of below-the-line marketing.

What you are witnessing is a real life example of someone rolling a natural 1 on a D20 for a karma check.

May Bethesda burn for killing Van Buren and the Fallout franchise.

The Bethesda subforum is a magical place. People don't come here to actually discuss their games as much as they do to shitpost and laugh at their incompetence. Dare I say, what a lively couple of weeks it has been for this place! I'd like to raise a toast to even more hilarity in the future!

Never thought to look at the official site just thought it would be unadulterated praise
Instead it's open warfare between Tards who bought and regret and Bethtards who bought and lie to themselves very amusing thank you for letting me know :lol:

GameStop reported earnings a few days ago and specifically called out Fallout 76 as a major disappointment. Here's what the CFO said on the conference call: "Obviously, you can see in the market what the Metacritic scores are around Fallout 76, and that’s impacted its sell-through. I’ll probably just leave it at that.” Retailers rarely like to talk shit about their suppliers, so "look at the metacritic score, I'll leave it at that," is a pretty devastating indictment.

Bethesda says "millions" of people are playing it, so maybe 2 or 3 million? Given how quickly they cut the price, it's doing much, much, much worse than they expected. Nobody at BGS or Zenimax is going to be happy about these numbers. Let's just say Todd Howard and Pete Hines aren't going to be too thrilled at their bonuses this year.

Who the fuck spends nearly 100 dollars on what is probably crappy rum? Christ, you're just going to mix it into something anyway.

This is just a major blunder one after the other. I don't know what to expect next but I'm sure it'll be amusing and within the next week or so.

I'm sure they wouldn't spend enough to make this a bottle of pure rum; it's probably a pre-mixed cola with a dash of crappy rum.

So it won't even get you properly shitfaced in a reasonable amount of time. Amazing.

Edit: I looked, and you were right. Seems to be 35% though.

97 dollars for 70 proof shit that likely makes Kraken look like topshelf is still fucking obscene.
