Parent reviews for Fallout 76 (2024)

this is a very educational game and there is scary stuff, so babies don't play. atoms are for in game to buy, they are more useful than Fortnite V-bucks because you can get kits to fix weapons, but Fortnite has pay - to - win skins.

Says online but turns out to only support playing with others that share the same type of console which sucks. I've never written a review but this is bs. Please update the game so I can play with my ps friends, I AM POOR!

Parents should know that Todd Howard is an extremely good role model for young children! Some of his admirable virtues include being truthful, telling the truth, and not lying. He has also released many hit games over the years such as The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim for the Xbox 360, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim for the Xbox One, and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim for the Xbox Series X!

Parents need to know that Fallout 76 used to be one of the most disappointing games of it's decade. It was way overhyped and could have been great, but when it came out, it was an absolute mess. However, Bethesda (the creators of the game) have turned it around. The game is almost what was promised originally, and is actually a very good game today. It is definitely worth your time nowadays. Just because it is worth playing, doesn't mean that everyone should give it a go. It still has quite a bit of strong language and violence, but not NEARLY as much as the other Fallout games. Players use guns, lasers, machetes, axes, baseball bats and lots more as weapons against the mutated zombie-like creatures, raiders, other players, and monsters. When hit, people, creatures, and mutants will emit a blood splash that will often create a splat on the floor that usually looks like dried crimson paint for some reason. Dismemberment sometimes happens, but it's rare. You have to be using certain weapons that will dismember enemies, and those weapons are very hard to get usually. Also, if you shoot a specific body part a lot of times, it might explode and blood will flow from it. This usually only happens if a creature or person is already dead and on the ground, and you shoot their head/body part a bunch. The VATS system no longer has slow motion gore effects that show people being blown apart in extremely graphic detail, but it's still violent. As for strong language, there are infrequent uses of f--k and s--t, and it's often found in letters, books, and other things you might find and read. There is little to no sexual content, other then a few very mild references. I would say this game is worth checking out if you are 15 or older. Some kids could probably handle it before that though.

Well first of all i am 12 and have it......ITS NOT AS BAD AS 4!The community is also very nice

This Is a very good game, my kid has wanted to play fallout 4 for a while but that game unlike this one was to violent and not appropriate. I found that this game was a good alternative because it is the sequel to Fallout 4 and I do not see any problems with it, in my opinion this game should be Rated Teen and not M.

i have played all the fallout games and i am a god at them if you need a tutor this is me on dicord ortega234 and me on xbox live statedevening71 but lets talk about fallout 76 it has blood and gore it got more hard couse its online the gameplay is allot more wack but its good

I don't care of what these other parents say or let there kids get exposed to, but this game has some bad players. there is too much swearing. i let my 13 year old son play this game and he started acting weird. There are drugs, Too much swearing, and very violent.

Whilst Fallout 76 on the surface appears violent, it isn't always about violence. There are some times when you engage in combat purely to survive but it becomes the message that the game plays. On occasions the player will kill "Scorched" and "feral ghouls" who were humans but they don't have any higher brain function which to some extent is deemed murder. The game does contain a voice chatting function but it can be controlled in the settings. Overall the game is violent but it is mainly due to a VERY MATURE background which it can be best to talk to kids about or whether they ask questions about certain elements of the game. I would suggest that the person playing this game can be very mature about the content they experience within the game.

The Good:Fallout 76's content is very simple and easy to understand. Your kids will have a good time exploring a massive map with others. There is no sexual content, and the sense of freedom is high.The Bad: Fallout 76 is filled with profanity, though the F-bomb is not dropped very often, thankfully. The violence is high, as there is a plethura of weapons and explosives to use. The landscape is filled with mutated creatures and evil robots who will try to exterminate you. Friendly NPCs can be killed for little more than fun. The Ugly: Fallout 76 is an online only game, and therefore kids and people alike will experience other people's choices, like swearing over online chat, underdressing or dressing immodestly, and straight up murdering you for fun. The Verdict: I recommend this for teenagers and Adults which understand that this is not real, and are mature enough to not repeat actions experienced in the game in the real world.
