Oh my good god. This is possibly thread worthy, or perhaps op want to update the thread with this new info.
So, the the sub service is broken.
You know, I usually don't take this tact, but if you bought this, after everything this game has been, still is, and will continue to be. You deserve it. ThereIsaidit.

And this is why people are face-palming en masse at Bethesda. It's not the $100 subscription fee per se but that you're expected to buy a $100 subscription for a game that doesn't work properly even after a year's worth of updates.

I agree with the sentiment towards Bethesda. But now, 24 hours after launching, it's "a $100 subscription for a game that doesn't work properly even after a year's worth of updates." Plus the subscription itself is another problem. A whole set of problems. The video I linked from Jim Sterling doesn't even cover how bad it is.
I don't agree that the sub and it's cost aren't problematic in and of themselves. It's a preposterous value proposition when weighted against services like PSN/PS Now and XBL/Game Pass. I'm not even going to take the time to outline the massive disparity between, say, Game Pass, which is cheaper per month than Bethesda's pitiful Fallout 76 offering. But the contrast is stark.
It's a matter of preference, even in the best case scenarios. I've never been truly tempted to sub to a single game.
