Much has been said and written regarding Fallout 76 already - how Bethesda's online-only approach could be either the best step for the series or the worst. The absence of any singleplayer experience would surely bring Fallout series fans' mind to halt. Loneliness in the face of nuclearized landscapes has always been one of the attractions on this type a game - a world that responds and is "written" only by us.

Bethesda has now released a gameplay trailer for Fallout 76, which seemingly sends a mixed message. It could be just confirmation bias here, but the original intro saying that "most of the others have already gone" and "you come from every walk of life: every race, color and creed" do seem to speak to the multiplayer component of a character creator and a lore-infused way of explaining other players' presence. At the same time, the entire trailer focuses on graphics, the new tech behind landscapes and the new weather and detail system, which allows for up to 16x more graphical assets to be displayed. And the way the creatures of Fallout and West Virginia appear does speak to a single-player approach to combat - for now. We'll see, as Bethesda further pulls the curtains - particularly in the Beta for Fallout 76, which is rumored to be available first on the XBOX family of consoles rather than the PC. Watch the trailer after the break. If you want to know more about the making of Fallout 76 - and get a deeper glimpse at the game and its development - feel free to watch the Noclip video embedded below as well.

Yes, you can play solo but....
- Lack of NPC's besides some robots or holodisks
- Lack of quests
- Empty World
- Other junk I may have forgotten.

Don't think I'd call that a "gameplay" trailer. It's more of a "look at what the game looks like for a few moments and listen as we brag about what you should expect from it" trailer. There wasn't any real gameplay - just a few clips of ingame footage.

I suppose the game could be interesting, but what little actual gameplay footage they showed, it kind of felt clunky with the attacks from creatures. Animations appeared smooth, but the combat didn't look good....well, from what little they did show.

I won't get the game because it's online and I don't want to be forced to deal with some of the crappy people you find when gaming online. At least I know it doesn't look like I'll be missing too much based on what they've shown us so far.

Interesting dialog choices leading to multiple crazy things each? Though after Fallout 4 that is under question.

Sounds like a the half life 2 leaked beta was better then.

Open world fun with NPC interactions?

Nah, too expensive, let's let the players of other PCs be the NPCs. It's like... brain slavery without them realizing it. Evil genius stuff, I love it.

Last game that had interesting dialog choices was Nev Vegas, and that wasn't even developed by Bethesda.

What really amazes me is the amount of people upset it isn't a full fledged classic SP game. Like who is really expecting Bethesda to have made a new Fallout game right after Fallout 4? This is exactly what so many people have been asking for, an online Fallout game.

This is what Fallout needs! I'm not interested anymore in wasting time with dumb AI an cheap single-player storylines. This will change the series for the better. It's 2018 and single player games are just boring!

The only cheap storylines in fallout came out of Bethsoft.

Part of me sort of likes how they're not even pretending to do Fallout anymore.

Citation please. Everything that has been said about this game so far indicates that it will be online-only, multi-player only game. For a lot of people that is a deal-breaker and a waste of time & money.

Couldn't disagree more..
