Can you die of starvation or thirst in Fallout 76?
Surprisingly, no. While you'll get some serious debuffs from ignoring your hunger and thirst, like reduced AP regen and taking more damage, you won't actually die from it. It'll just make surviving the wasteland way harder.

Oh yeah, absolutely. Hunger and thirst are real survival elements in Fallout 76. If you neglect eating or drinking, your health will deplete over time, and yup, you can eventually die if you don't find some grub or water soon enough. So, keep an eye on those meters!
Short answer: Yes and no. Your character won't die directly from starvation or dehydration. However, the weakened state will make you an easy target for enemies. So, indirectly, yes.
