Fallout 76 player who nukes Phil Spencer says ‘he was the final boss’.The Fallout 76 player who nukes Phil Spencer’s camp in the game was not protesting the recent closure of Bethesda’s studios, but had been planning the attack for weeks.
In a shocking decision this week, Microsoft decided to shut down Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks, two well-known studios under the Bethesda wing. Hours after the closure was announced, a Twitter user noticed that someone had detonated a nuclear bomb at Phil Spencer’s camp in Fallout 76, destroying the Xbox head’s base.
At the time, this was seen as an act of protest against the head of Xbox due to the closure of Bethesda studios. It’s easy to see why – Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks had legions of fans around the world who criticized Microsoft for deciding to shut down two beloved developers despite critical acclaim and strong sales.
It turns out that the attack in Fallout 76 was not a form of protest, but rather the result of weeks of planning by one player.
Nothing special, I’ve been planning to catch him for a while now to see if he’ll agree to a fight.
Trying to defeat him was just a personal goal of mine after I finished the main storyline.
He was the final boss in my eyes. In RPGs, I prefer to be the bad guy,” the player added.
The Fallout 76 player also said that Spencer usually moves around the map because he is always immediately surrounded by players.
Even after the player detonated a nuclear bomb in Spencer’s camp, the head of Xbox did not attack the player as he wanted, but simply waved at him
