Bethesda games tend to have awful writing, released with an unacceptable amount of bugs, and not having micro transactions and a battle pass shouldn’t be praised, it must be the standard.

Right now it needs to be praised so it becomes the standard.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

The only way it becomes standard is when it isn't profitable. We can scream all we want, but people still buy that crap.

When will you learn the only thing that gets results is buying or not buying them? Fucks sake. It's capitalism, if you buy shitty product more shitty product gets made.

It is the standard, idiot fucking gamergoblins dumping their wallets out saying "GIVE ME ADVANTAGES" are the assholes thats are trying to change the standard.

So it should be praised as it currently isn't the standard in the gaming industry. But hey, let's shit on it so we can totally tell the industry that this is the wrong path and micro transactions are the way to go!

I expected it to be buggy. I have not yet encountered a bug in my first few hours.

That being said, there's lots im not liking about it so far.

I had Vasco become a part of the door to the cockpit. I couldn't enter. I had to leave the ship and hit the specific 'to cockpit' button for a few hours because reloading didn't save him from his torment. Only bug I've had but was weird lol.

Vasco quite frequently blocks the door everywhere for me, but at least I have been able to push my way through so far. He's like my Golden Retriever in that respect so I am used to it from real life.

The big super-mutant companion from Fallout 3 did the same.

It's nice to know Bethesda are keeping all the fan favourite bugs alive and well.

Real sad that Vasco isnt a full companion. Had so much potential there, instead, all he is is a glorified tutorial escort for the start of the game, and graduates to annoying barricade for the rest of it.
