Things About Fallout 76 That Aren’t Terrible
Few Loading Screens (And They’re Unique!)
It might seem small, especially within a sea of other problems, but the relative lack of loading screens definitely doesn’t suck in Fallout 76. In addition, someone at Bethesda came up with the genius idea of allowing players to alter these screens with the snapshots they take throughout the game.
The image above is from my personal collection, and every time I see it I remember that I need to find out more about this “Sickleman” character and why there were so many skele– oh look the game’s done loading!
However, these loading screens happen to be the biggest and most complete effort to encourage player’s interaction with Appalachia. Unfortunately, many of the other attempts, like a lack of NPCs, aren’t nearly as effective in creating a meaningful connection with the world (so far).
