I feel bad for who ever have to clean that up, I also see that fallout 76 is doing just well so far I highly doubt Bethesda will learn from this and if they did I hope it is that you get what you make in this a case a shitty Multiplayer Mod of Fallout 4 with microtransactions posing as a full game gives you nothing but negative reviews and overall shit reception.

The game is great as you can see by reading reviews.
 
I wonder who is doing this I betting either A some fanboy who is desperate to make the game look good or B someone is being paid to do this to make the game look good because I pretty sure anyone who looks beyond the numbers will see these are sock puppet accounts with my favorites being the ones that not only say nothing about the game but just say generic messages like "gameplay is good fuck the haters". So does Metacritic have any from of quality control when it comes reviews ?

"best game ever" "so freaking much fun" "runs well on my low end system" "probably GOTY of 2018".

Sounds like bought comments and ratings. Probably from out of country, judging by the hilarious Ingrish I see dotted here and there. Maybe they should have hired a spellchecker, too.
 
How did it get this bad between Skyrim and now? Was there a mass exodus of devs or something?

I'm not certain but there's no way the talented devs aren't working on the "big" projects right now (Starfield and Elder Scrolls 6) and Fallout 76 was made by a loose collection of people not affiliated with either project. This was likely done to appease shareholders by trying to generate a return on an already existing engine/franchise; not unlike Obsidian's Fallout : New Vegas.

However, unlike Fallout : New Vegas this was made by an inside team and is much more blatantly a cash grab as you can tell how many corners were cut and where the development priority lies - The servers are incredibly unstable and they added in 0 suggestions from the B.E.T.A but managed to have a full cash shop on release of a $60 dollar game.

People have been comparing this to Metal Gear : Survive; which even then is still unfair. MG:S wasn't a great game by most people's definition but it was at least a complete and somewhat competent game (with a full offline campaigns that tied in to the extra online mode).
