There may be individuals like you and me who refuse to engage in these stupid practices.
but on the whole, gamers are blind, greedy idiots that’ll continue to throw money at companies for their next golden turd, even while complaining about how much of a terrible ripoff the current golden turd is.
Sure. Modders will do what they do. If all you paid for was the platform then fine. Bethesda knows who they cater to. I put over 1000 hours into skyrim over the years in some of the best fun I’ve had due to mods and content. I didn’t subscribe to Bethesda monthly plan. I bought skyrim once. No other game had that platform for a modding community. If Bethesda didn’t embrace the modding community that would be the end of them.
And yeah no excuse for selling an out of box poorly made game, but I’m optimistic that I’ll enjoy the hell out of this game once creation engine is out. I’ve already put 250 hours into it without the mods. 6/10 experience.
Don’t worry guys modders will fix it for the corporation for free. Then they can get one of those ongoing development love trophies from Geoff
Blaming modders is small epeen.
Preordered customers were the problem. Don’t preorder anything.
Never gonna stop.

I agree but there is big fucking difference between embracing the modding community and offloading work to said community
Bethesda is also switching back paid mods for Skyrim, so who knows, maybe being able to make money off modders was the idea from the very beginning.
