Bethesda's excuse for $ 199 Fallout 76 EC nylon bag, offers $ 5 in fake money in compensation

Bethesda is under fire from critics for a falsely announced bag bundled with the Fallout 76 Power Armor Edition.

According to the package description of $ 199, it is supposed to come with a canvas bag. He even has a photo of the bag, and he looks enough canvas there. I mean, look at this:

Here is a picture of the current bag, via Imgur:

To make matters worse, support staff at Bethesda Gear's store responded to a customer complaint by claiming that the bag advertised was a "prototype" and that it would have been "too much" expensive to manufacture ".

You can see why people are disappointed by what appears to be bait and blatant change.

Yet the controversy does not stop there. Bethesda has since apologized. If you provide proof that you purchased the Power Armor Edition, you will be entitled to compensation.

We understand and respect the fact that the power armor edition bag is disappointing. We are sorry. Please contact Bethesda Support to provide proof of your CE purchase. They will help you to give 500 atoms to your account.

To be clear, it's 500 atoms – or, as I call it, calling $ 5 (£ 3.99) in fake money. In the game you can buy a skin that carries the canvas bag. That's 700 Atoms. Yes.

You can buy a virtual door for 300 atoms and buy a door and a half if you wish.

The official gear website has since changed the description of the nylon bag, but the picture still shows a canvas bag.
