Fallout 76 wasn't developed by the main Bethesda studio, it was developed by the new Austin Texas studio they opened, and it was apparently rushed out with only 1 year of development, seemingly because Starfield got delayed out of 2018 at the last moment because Bethesda decided they wanted to release it on next-gen with the new revamped Creation Engine build, instead of on current gen with the old Creation engine build, and Zenimax wanted a game to fill Starfield's place in the 2018 release schedule. |
88 average to be precise but tbh I think Bethesda got something of a pass with the problems F4 had the issue here is the more developers enter their space the more the problems their games have will be more and more scrutinized, the game barely ran on X1 until patches but was given an 88 average, a few problems is one thing but actual issues where we had reports of drops to 0fps should no longer be allowed to slide especially as technically the game wasn't on par with many others on the platforms it was on it was the engine fighting the hardware and architecture. F76 still uses the engine and it laid bare the issues that are present in Bethesda's games and more and more people are noticing now as developers put out similar games with out these issues.
Saying it's revamped means little if it's still the same framework that's hindering them.
