If you are in a moody mood, rest assured that a ray of sunshine is breaking through the shadows: Bethesda brings a new chapter to its humorous Fallout 76 saga.
Today, we learn that the ACCC, an Australian court ensuring respect for consumer rights, made Zenimax (Bethesda's parent company) aware that Fallout 76 was sold in a disastrous state and was eligible for reimbursement.

Zenimax initially refused to reimburse disgruntled customers who bought the game and found themselves facing a product filed with bugs, server errors, lags or graphics issues. Now, Australian buyers who have claimed a refund between November 24, 2018 and July 1, 2019 will get their money back.


In other words: Bethesda recognizes that Fallout 76 was bad. That's delicious.

You can thank ACCC for your stream refunds also. Even though this is only in Australia they might just roll it out world wide.

They already knew. It took a court to force them to admit it.

Pff haha, the only thing Bethesda recognizing is a court order. This wasn't done out of the goodness in their hearts.
