      @@tommerker8063 Oh I agree with you. I took one look at _Fallout 3_ (played on a friend's PS3) and thought, "What is this? I wouldn't necessarily mind a perspective change, but this writing feels very tonally different from the previous games, and I think that is to its detriment. On top of that, some of these quests feel disjointed, forced, on-rails or poorly conceived. I think this is a drop in quality for the franchise, and I don't like where this seems to be going." When they came out with the *three dollar* "horse armor DLC" for Skyrim, which to be blunt, everybody and their mother knows is the sort of "content" that should be a part of the base game, I knew they were hopelessly lost to the dark arts of nickel-&-diming their customers for all they were worth.

      @@Slitheringpeanut I don't think that's true. But it certainly unintentionally became the case. Bethesda however, has always been a company that released broken games. As early as Arena. It pretty much wasn't until Morrowind when the modding scene came in and started thriving, and fixing Bethesda's crap. So with each new release in their games in the BGS family, it will get more polished by the modders rather than the devs. Their most stable game was Fallout 4 (if you don't count the re-releases of Skyrim) and it still was plagued with problems.

      @@pizdamatii5001 That's because the game lacks human NPC's altogether, which will be coming to the game soon, but there are some existing NPC's, robots and whatnot, that are enjoyable to interact with. All bethesda games are average, they're all from 6 to 8/10 depending on preferences. The overall writing is lazy and there's only handful of NPC's in each game that you actually grow fond of, rarely are the quests in the games good, every 1 in 50 quests are actually enjoyable to do. The best part about the games is the exploration aspect and the freedom of it all AND the character you grow up and evolve. If you start going down the path already defined, you won't enjoy the games as much, 76 does the exploration part well and the world is very well integrated with the multiplayer aspect.

      The problem is, that as YongYea has pointed out in this very video the most malignant companies like Bethesda, EA and Activision have no compunction about retroactively adding the egregious montitisation bullshit in after release so that they can maximize whatever capital they can from initial goodwill by leveraging the game mechanics after people are already invested. It's seriously one of the most overtly unethical ways to do business I have ever seen, and that's including some of the bullshit the cigarette companies use to do. I mean can you imagine Phillip Morrison releasing a safe, cancer-free cigarette, then after they have a bunch of regular buyers, suddenly and without any forewarning swapping back to carcinogenic and addictive tobacco so that they can hook their customers on the produce, some of whom are kids, because the original product was legal to sell to kids? That's the equivalent to what these guys feel perfectly comfortable doing.
      So just waiting till release to see what is actually offered isn't enough. People would have to wait till 6 months or even a year after release to see what is the actual end product. Really people just need to stop buying from the repeat offender companies altogether till they with go under or learn the lesson permanently in order to save themselves.

And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all."

    Here are 16 awful things Fallout 76 and everything around it did:
    1. The Game itself is Boring and Broken.
    2. There are Glitches are Everywhere.
    3. The Game messed with established lore.
    4. They knew it would be a rough launch but did it anyway without a second thought.
    5. The Nylon Duffle Bag that was given in the 200 Dollar Collector's Edition instead of the Canvas Duffle Bag promised.
    6. The 500 atoms to make up for the Duffle Bags but it is practically nothing ingame and you can't even get yourself an ingame duffle bag.
    7. The False and Half Hearted Apologizes Throughout EVERY CONTROVERSY.
    8. The Nuka-Dark Rum bottles (or rather plastic shells) and poor quality rum.
    9. Making the game Grinder without telling players like another certain company did so long ago.
    10. The 276 Dollar "Premium" Leather Jackets were Very Gaudy and Unappealing.
    11. Taking a Stupidly long amount of fan backlash and time it took to get an actual Canvas Duffle Bags as Advertised.
    12. The website leaking out people's names, credit card information, and payment information.
    13. The Slow Leak of Gameplay Microtransactions.
    14. Every Time they update the game, patched out glitches come back.
    15. The Nuka-Cola Themed Helmets being Dangerously Moldy.
    16. They backpedaled on their PROMISE to not include gameplay microtransactions.
    Honestly, It's kind of amazing. This game never stops having controversy after controversy. Even if it's not the game itself, as long as it has the Fallout 76 brand, it will be shit. The only thing it can really give them credit for is that they have stuck with this game for so long. It's longer than EA did with Anthem.
    Yong, I don't know if you remember but you made a video defending the game when it was being compared to Metal Gear Survive. Grated, it was before Fallout 76 was released but I really want to know if you still feel the same way you did in that video with everything you know about now.
    Bethesda, through this one game, has effectively lost ALL of the consumer good will they have accumulated over years of good-great games. This sets a very dark future for them. I am not looking forward to Elder Scrolls 6 or any other of their future titles by Bethesda themselves. I REALLY don't think Bethesda will learn from this unfortunately. Triple A companies never learn after all. And that's what Bethesda has become. Just another Triple A company trying to Nickle and Dime players at every turn.

    Bungie is doing the same thing. They’re selling “convenience” items through their battle pass system and exp boosting ghosts through their in game store. They drastically reduced the amount of in game bright dust you can earn in order to get items from the in game store. All to make more money off their players. I still have NO IDEA why players are allowing these companies to do this. It just blows my mind how people are throwing money at these companies for digital coding that will be useless in a year.

      At the very least Bungie have made the base game available for free - Fallout 76 is still sold at full price. For a f2p model, Destiny's actually very lenient as well, compared to MMORPGs like World of Warcraft.
      Then again, Blizzard has proven itself to be a bottom-of-the-barrel scumhive as well, so that's not saying much.

      So far destiny 2 has cost me around £175 (I think) to keep playing up to date content, now they're asking for a further £40 to basically play rehashed destiny 1 content... I have destiny 1 already....

    I feel like I'm screaming into a tornado, but I'm going to keep saying it: The broken and disappointing state of games like Anthem and FO76 were NOT accidents. They were a direct application of what Mr Jernstrom highlighted in his talk. Make a deliberately broken game, as utterly close as you can manage to the line where it becomes as scam. Then you "offer" all the elements that should have been there from the start in a macrotransaction in-game economy, all but forcing players to keep spending well beyond what they spent for the initial game release. Blizzard is flat out lyinig. The research that "revealed" this didn't take place after launch. It was part of the game's product strategy from Launch Day minus 1000.
