In Fallout 76, everyone's dead because it's set just 25 years after the Great War, a nuclear apocalypse that wiped out most of humanity. You emerge from Vault 76, one of the first to open after the war, into a world where survivors are scarce, and the landscape is teeming with mutated creatures. The game's focus is on rebuilding society, which means encountering other players as the main 'survivors' rather than NPCs.

It's by design! Bethesda wanted to create a unique experience where players are the main characters in the post-apocalyptic world. Instead of traditional NPCs, you have holotapes, robots, and terminals that tell the story of the people who didn't make it. And with the recent updates, they've added human NPCs to make the world feel more alive, but the initial setting was all about player interaction shaping the new world.
