As usual Bethesda fails to properly do their own job and leaves it to the community to have their back and as is always the case the modders have supplied us with the superior version.

That is almost as bad as the mantra of āPlayer Firstā for Ubisoft.

Yikes. this just keeps getting worse.
@Dusty That was quite a trip. How this company stays so popular is beyond me.
Just gotta say for all the F EA and disaster that was, Iām surprised that this has overall (until this point) been a much quieter issue for Bethesda. Iām curious as to the long term of this, and If it will become something like EAās āpride and achievementā moment and will be the straw on the camelās back/

Ya, to expand a little RE: SWEET LITTLE LIESSSS, I really donāt feel like Todd is being intentionally misleading or deceptive. I just think itās just a funny video and like to meme.
I think like a lot of us he is passionate and excited about the stuff he works on ā and often the vision, not always tempered by reality, can be grand and maybe unreasonable before things like budget, timeline, or other fun corporate stuff is taken into account.
Itās super hard for creatives to balance wanting to communicate w/ their audience, w/o creating unmanagable expectations or hype. But I donāt think most of those ppl are being intentionally deceptive or malicious.
Engineers especially are just really bad w/ setting realistic expectations sometimes.

TES Online and No Manās Sky took 2 years to get gud, maybe F76 just needs time? This subscription bollocks is a complete misstep though. They should work on fixing things, not implement more stupid methods to pull money out of their customersā pockets.

Honestly my first comparison was also Star Wars BF 2. That game was garbage when it came out, and the team actually fixed it and continued to add good new stuff (thats free) while fixing what bugs the game had.
So far Bethesda seems to have done little bug fixing from what Iāve read, and has added nothing to really fix their mistakes and show goodwill to their players. I could be wrong, I havenāt done much research on the subject. thatās how it appears though to me.

Games should also be shipping complete. Not a buggy beta test that they are attempting to call a full game under the promise that they will ācontinue to improve the experienceā.

Itās too bad nobody makes the good decision to do what Final Fantasy 14 did. Which is release game, realize its broken and nobody likes it, apologize and shutdown game, then release the fixed game again a few years later.
And @eliaviaene. It looks to me, from your screenshot, that youāre not entitled enough. ba dum tssshhh
Seriously though, those are a bad choice of words for gaming culture. And I think your best bet is to contact customer support as Fallout 76 communities across the internet are too mad to help people.

Probably because, unlike EA, their games are more acclaimed, everyone actually knows who runs Bethesda as well as revere him and they didnāt attempt to exploit loopholes (maybe that āsaleā in F76 I suppose, but even that I heard its a sales strategy apparently). I bet you guys wonāt know who runs EA, and if so do you guys think heās as iconic?
Let me admit now: I have not played any Bethesda game all my life, Iām only going by my observations online. And I actually donāt think that EA is the evilest company in the world (but they are one of the more groanworthy ones) so donāt take it too seriously.

I agree with you and I think you make a good point.
Although as someone who doesnāt know much about the game development industry or sticks closely to game news I had no idea who the CEO of EA was until recently or who the CEO of Bethesda was. But Iām pretty out of the loop with these things so I get where you are coming from.
