Love it or hate it, Fallout 76 does offer the average fan of the series a big world to explore. This is one of the core gameplay appeals for Bethesda open-world titles. They always manage to create locations that strike a sense of wonder and awe when first witnessed.
Those who see these locations must often wonder how the developers and artists behind the game were able to envision such a layout. Well, it’s not all pure imagination! Imitation is the best form of flattery, and the developers of Fallout 76 are not shy when it comes to sharing the sources for their inspiration.

Even the most fantastical elements in gaming have their roots in reality. Whether it’s Winterfell from Skyrim or even Rapture from BioShock, one can draw similarities between those locations and ones found on our planet.

The popularity of the Fallout franchise is currently riding the crest of a wave following the hugely popular Prime series. This has increased sales for titles, with many fans re-visiting various games for a renewed adventure in the wastelands. To say that Bethesda are joyfully rubbing its hands may be an understatement.
Given the popularity of the franchise and its impressive array of supporting characters, it is perhaps no surprise to see modders adapting them into other titles. It’s nothing new to see this happen; they can have varying degrees of success. However, it is the Fallout Mod which has been adapted for another popular franchise that has surprised many fans

Fallout 76 is not the most acclaimed entry in the hit RPG series by a long margin. Apart from the game’s quality, which series enthusiasts almost always criticize, the state of the game at launch was nothing short of deplorable.
In addition to almost unanimously agreeing that the title was perhaps the series’ weakest entry, the community agrees that ‘The Scorched’ can be incredibly challenging to slay. But many fans might be unaware that a much scarier enemy almost replaced them
Fallout 76 Lead Artist Reveals That He Wanted A Much More Unsettling Enemy Type Instead of the Scorched Fallout 76‘s Scorched could have been much more scary if the original designs were retained.

Fallout 76 has recently surpassed a major milestone by reaching the 20 million players mark, 6 years after its release. The main factor in Bethesda’s success was the Fallout TV show, which began airing on April 10th earlier this year. Due to the popularity of the show, both old and new players were captivated by the intriguing lore of the Fallout world.
After the milestone’s announcement, Director Todd Howard gave an interview expressing how this was an unexpected turn of events. However, he also teased that the studio might have been working on multiple Fallout projects.

Fallout 76, Bethesda’s foray into the online multiplayer RPG genre, has come a long way since its initial launch in 2018, which was riddled with bugs, glitches, and a plethora of technical issues.
While the game has received substantial updates, adding NPCs, settlements, and various improvements, one aspect remained stubbornly unaddressed: the locked framerate on PC. This limitation, caused by forced V-sync, capped the game’s performance at 60 fps, resulting in a sluggish and imprecise gameplay experience for many players.

For PC gamers seeking to unlock Fallout 76‘s framerate potential on their rigs and achieve a smoother experience, there is indeed a solution. Moreover, the fix is relatively simple, requiring a minor adjustment to a configuration file outside the game.

With its reputation for massive single-player RPGs like The Elder Scrolls and Fallout, Bethesda tried its hand at the multiplayer genre with Fallout 76 in 2018. While the game offered a unique online experience set in a typical post-apocalyptic Fallout wasteland, not all was merry.
Fallout 76‘s launch was marred by technical problems such as bugs, glitches, missing features, and a general sense of incompleteness. While Bethesda games aren’t known to be the most polished at launch, FO76‘s problems were quite egregious and a big disappointment for fans.

As of today, October 13, 2023, Microsoft has officially completed its nearly $70 billion acquisition of publisher Activision Blizzard. Though the two sides reportedly agreed to an acquisition way back in January 2022, the deal has been modified, scrutinized, and debated by a number of regulatory bodies (not to mention other gamers) since then. Following an exhaustive process that required the Microsoft team to make quite a few concessions, the deal is finally complete.
There is so much to say about this deal, and we hope to be able to share much of that information with you in the coming days and weeks. However, you’re not alone if the first question that popped into your mind is “What games and franchises do Microsoft and Xbox now control as part of the Activision Blizzard deal?
The full answer to that question is long and complicated. As noted above, there are a number of provisions...

A long-retired Red Cross nurse whose only real plans for the winter of 1976 involve redesigning the inside of her family’s beach house and planning her granddaughter’s seven birthday party, Carmen — played by the elegantly unraveling Aline Kuppenheim — spends her days fussing around with the furniture and waiting for her doctor husband to return from Santiago on the weekend, oblivious to the discordant electric daggers of the Mariá Portugal score that cuts a hole into the soundscape around her. She dreams of a living room that’s soaked in the kiss-pink shade of a Venetian sunset, and at one point is so entranced by a vat of swirling paint that she hardly seems to hear the screams of a young leftist as they’re disappeared off a nearby street in broad daylight.
But Carmen is not quite as callous as her Westchester chic wardrobe might suggest. The empathy that...

It’s said that just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they’re not out to get you, but in the case of Carmen (Aline Küppenheim), the protagonist of Manuela Martelli’s Chile ’76, paranoia may be a self-fulfilling prophesy. After all, as its title indicates, the film is set during Augusto Pinochet’s right-wing military dictatorship, three years after the coup that toppled Salvador Allende’s democratically elected left‐wing Popular Unity Government.
Carmen is a young grandmother, wife of a hospital administrator (Alejandro Goic), and former Red Cross nurse. She lives a complacent bourgeois life, insulated from anti-communist suspicion but not from her own neuroses, which she self-medicates with a steady intake of pills, alcohol, and cigarettes. When she and her family pay a visit to their seaside vacation house, the local priest, Father Sanchez (Hugo Medina), recruits her to secretly nurse a communist insurgent, Elías (Nicolás Sepúlveda...

To title your film after a year, as actor-turned-filmmaker Manuela Martelli does, is a bold statement. For Chileans, after all, “1976” (renamed “Chile ’76” for North American markets) will conjure up a host of reactions tied to what was one of the bloodiest years of Augusto Pinochet’s dictatorship. And yet this dazzling debut feature is grounded not in the resistance movement against Pinochet, nor on the political maneuvring that led to thousands having been disappeared. It focuses instead on a housewife’s day-to-day routine, as she slowly finds her insular world rocked by events that soon spiral out of her control. Following a successful festival run beginning at Cannes last year, the film will be released Stateside by Kino Lorber from May 5.

Manuela Martelli’s debut film opens with a sequence that perfectly captures the tone and themes Chile ‘76 will explore. Carmen (played by Aline Kuppenheim) is at a paint shop, choosing and mixing the color that she’ll use at the beach house she has with her husband, a shift head at one of the most important medical institutions in Santiago, Chile’s capital. While browsing an almanac with pictures of European cities, pointing at colors of sun-kissed buildings, we can hear a disturbance outside: a woman is being pulled over by the military and yells as she’s taken away.
At the same time as we hear the woman shouting her name and ID, a drop of pinkish paint falls from the mixer onto Carmen’s elegant, pristine shoe. When Carmen leaves the store, cans of paint in the hands of the vendor helping her, we glimpse the aftermath of what happened.

Rita Moreno, Sally Field, Jane Fonda, and Lily Tomlin star in the film about a quartet of friends who are determined to see the legendary quarterback play in the 2017 Super Bowl. The movie is inspired by a real-life “Over 80 for Brady” fan club, but how old are the actors who play the main characters? All but one has hit her 80th birthday.
