Fallout 76 fans are ignoring review bombs, laying out the welcome mat

Fallout 76 has arrived on Steam, and with it, the game brought out its newest
expansion. Wastelanders brings factions of NPCs to Appalachia, making it less
of a Day Z-alike and more of an open world mainline Fallout RPG. However, the
game is still embroiled in the controversy from launch, and that reflects in
Fallout 76’s reviews on Steam.
As Rock Paper Shotgun notes, the game has gone from “Mostly Negative” to “
Mixed” since it has launched. Players are taking the opportunity to
re-litigate some of the issues from Bethesda’s original product.
But if you jump into the game itself, there isn’t a hint of that discontent.
In my time in game since launch, I’ve noticed a healthy mix of both veterans
and newbies. Many of the die-hard fans are choosing to smooth out the ride
for their new comrades; I’ve seen some remarkable exchanges so far. Some
players are setting up their CAMPs in a highly visible place outside the
Vault or near The Wayward, a new in-game bar and quest hub, and spamming
positive emotes at fresh Vault Dwellers who jog by.
The most common thing I’ve seen happen to new players so far is a surprise
supply drop. In Fallout 76, anyone can leave a paper bag full of their items
for other people to pick up. I found one player leaving a line of those
little paper bags, each one stuffed with stimpacks, weapons, and purified
water, outside the Vault. When I approached the player, spamming the hello
emote, she turned and fled into the woods, leaving her gifts behind for new
players to hoover up. In Flatwoods, other players are doing more one-on-one
time. I eavesdropped on one power-armored titan of a character helping out
his brand new buddy, who was wearing tighty-whities and trying to figure out
how to craft his first weapons.
This makes a lot of sense — I’ve always found Fallout 76 to have one of the
best communities in gaming, which is a stark difference from the dialogue
that surrounds the game in the zeitgeist. One user on the Fallout 76
subreddit notes that the review bomb seems to have been concentrated around
the game’s launch, when a genuine review would still be premature.
LxndrSonGoku writes, “Y’all could have at least booted up Wastelanders
before trying to review-bomb, it would have made it seem almost believable.
Leave us in peace.”
Wastelanders is a big reward to the core fans who stuck around through thick
and thin. Many of those fans have felt attacked, but it looks like the launch
of the new expansion has inspired them to kill ‘em with kindness. It’s
great seeing the spirit of giving on display in Appalachia, even if these
Good Samaritans sometimes take off at a dead sprint into the nearby woods.

新闻标题的意思我懂但感觉没直接一句评价回升直接。
简单来说在Bethesda更新DLC让NPC出现后。再加上游戏中铁粉的热情...
Fallout 76的评价开始回升啦!
所以当初为啥坚持不放NPC....(摊手
