It's in a state similar to Linux gaming, it depends on the game. It's potential is making Intel and AMD sweat, though. AMD is already designing ARM CPUs, but so is NVIDIA. It could be very good ... or very bad if they attempt to embrace, extend, and exploit with their own chips.

I imagine there are a few mod remakes of them already in the works.

The Creation Store is definitely way too predatory. The Tracking Alliance faction definitely seems tailored for future "elite bounties", and so far does not seem to have any singular faction questline with a conclusion. The quality is better than I expected and I suspect they will continue expanding it through the free patches as they also release new bounties Creations to go with it. If you don't purchase them, you are left with the empty space on the board reminding you of it, and paying for plushies? Decorations? Greed upon greed, but no different from what they did with Skyrim.

If Bethesda had any brains they would force developers to only post those as free and only as hooks and essentially free promotion for the content rich expansions they could be involved with, but instead they've been trying to push for MMOesque purchases for their singleplayer games for a while now, additions which I wouldn't even want because of how grossly they intrude upon the game universe. Sudden overpowered suit or base for no reason ahoy! The Anniversary Edition spoiled the Skyrim experience so much ...

Starfield was on its lasts legs and needed something that would revive it, not greed, but then again this sort of shit is why Bethsoft isn't one of the studios Microsoft has shut down. Makes you wonder just how much whales spend on this practice. Judging by the Sims and looking through posts regarding Skyrim, quite a lot, so move over traditional market and let the whales pass. Shame there's so little competition, I love this particular niche of a genre.

I am not going to look forward to TES6, although I doubt the MMO will curtail its development much. After all, they are already turning singleplayer into MMOs without the service cost.

I think they may have meant a probate court. Steam can ignore or argue against a probate court on several grounds and might have to be taken to a judicial court, GOG may be claiming they would accept the judgement of a probate court. Definitely needs to be expanded upon and clarified.

That's either awesome or diplomatic. But a court order shouldn't be needed, that implies going to court which isn't necessary in some countries.

Really not looking forward to it, even though I've played every other game including Tiny Tina's. They really dropped the ball with the Wonderlands DLC, they undid any and all trust I had in their post-release expansions, so they are really going to have to be announcing some ground-breaking new features if they want me to pay on release. Otherwise, I guess I'll be playing it in 2028 when it's discounted, if the state of the world allows it.

I can look past not having iconic villains, as much DLC, or having new releases that are just minor upgrades, but the drop in the expectations for post-release quality, I guess that's where I draw the line, no pre-orders from me.

Thanks to sh.itjust.works admins and their efforts!

I just assume at this point that it is a problem with any publisher.

"What precision?" - That's how you know it's going to get serious. Then after he receives the response, he just replies with "80085".

Haven't you run into bugs with the newly added car chases going CTD? I eventually realized it was due to using my choice of non-lethal quickhacks messing up the scripts, why didn't CD Projekt RED? Player experience can vary based on playstyle.

Sort of hate that they never worked in New Game Plus into the game. Their excuses don't jibe when there are ways to do it manually, but they are a hassle.

Another way to influence companies is with your money, and GOG allows you to download entire DRM-less backups of your game.
