Fallout 76 may have had a rocky launch, but the game always succeeded in making the absolute most of its rural Appalachian setting. Setting its multiplayer online game in the wasteland formerly known as West Virginia, Bethesda brought some of the region's most iconic folklore to life. Cryptids like Mothman, the wendigo, and the Flatwoods monster make up countless stories from that area of the country, and incorporating them into the game was a wonderful strategy that allowed Bethesda to integrate some of the local flavor in a fun, creative way.
