Bethesda Just Gave A Touching Gift To Skyblivion Following Oblivion Remastered's Launch
www.thegamer.com
Definitely no bad blood between the two here.

Hopefully people can stop with the “I bet Bethesda will take down skyblivion!1!!” comments now. It’s very clear there’s good will between modders and the devs.

    Anyone play Fallout London? I couldn’t rollback the pointless update that cockblocked the mod. This time, they just make an attempt to squeeze out money before skyblivion offers the option.

    Unless Bethesda actually fully embraces and supports the modding community, I’ll never buy another one of their games.

      Damn, I didn’t realize that you not being able to undo an update that they most likely had planned for at least a year or two to coincide with the release of the Fallout show led to you boycotting all things Bethesda.

      I didn’t know Todd personally fucked with your rig to force you to live with the next-gen update and not be able to play a mod. I guess he’s just going around to everyone’s place and making sure they have all their Bethesda games fully up to date so they’re mods keep getting fucked with.

            or adversely impact any other persons playing of the Game or their experience of playing the Game

            Wouldn’t want to adversely impact other people while playing your single player game. They can say what they want, people will mod it regardless.

            That means literally nothing to modders, and about 99% of gamers, at all.

            I’m even surprised people had enough energy/time/whatever to even scour the EULA at the very beginning.

    • @Yermaw@lemm.eeEnglish

      I’m pretty out of the loop on that sort of thing, but the games come with inbuilt game editors to make your own mods really easily right?

        The point is that they shipped an update that was mostly pointless, or even completely pointless on PC, that basically blocked the release of a huge scale very anticipated mod days before the release date.

        The argument is that they like profiting off their mod creators, but they try to squeeze the community for more money every time they can, like with the paid mods nonsense, and also don’t give a shit about them.
