Fallout 76 developer Bethesda Game Studios has seemingly banned a player permanently for building a sign in their CAMP in support of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the run-up to the upcoming presidential election. Reddit user TacoStuffingClub claimed on the Fallout 76 subreddit on Wednesday that Bethesda permanently banned their account over the Harris-Walz sign, with no prior warnings.
Alongside their Reddit post, several screenshots were shared of the player's attempts to contact Bethesda, as well as the developer's reasoning for the ban.
