Can't wait to pay Bethesda points for something that could potentially crash the game.

This is true of Beth games without the mods too though

So if I'm reading that right developers get paid while developing and benefit from a QA cycle. This seems like a positive thing. Why are people mad?

it lets them outsource the actual work of developing videogame content to underpaid freelancers.
 
Real quality stuff so far, mods like you've never seen:

I can't speak for the percentages, but unlike the valve fiasco they seem to have a heavy hand in curation. You can't throw up anything with a price tag on it. This seems they want outside talent to make expansions to the game. It's not putting a price tag on amateur hour shit, it has to pass a QA team. Those are not free.

Plus some cash upfront, Valve has never offered that kind of deal before. Like anything it could be abused by Bethesda but I think it has the possibility to be positive.

I suppose if you think nothing of fucking the costumer by making them buy mods, it might be a positive thing. Otherwise it just sets a negative example that'll divide the modding community further over a few dollarydoos. Not to mention the fact that Bethesda is going to take the vast majority of the profits.
 
I knew the allure of making money off mods would be something Bethseda would lust for even after getting heat for it before.

If they expect I'm gonna be dumb enough to pay them for crap I can get on the Nexus for free, then lol, no.

However, I am going to pitch a lawn chair and watch the salt geysers go off.
If it sticks this time they'll obviously go after the competition next, either by making the Nexus owners' an offer they can't refuse or by just stomping them in court.
 
i dont understand. is this board for posting other peoples salt or making our own?
 
Maybe when the new Wolfenstein comes out these people will realize how good they have it.

...Right?
Yeah, It's really ridiculous that people are getting so spergy over a video game's plot before it's even released. I guess some people, Far Left or Far Right, can't let go of politics for one occasion and just enjoy a good game. I guess fun isn't in their forte.
 
So now instead of just expecting their customers to pay to beta test their unfinished shit and it won't be functional until you buy some DLC, they're actually having the community finish the games they release before they're done, and then charging you for other people's work.

Sounds legit!
 
not gonna lie the VR doom game looks like such a pile of shit that i'm a little bit upset
yes please make it so that i may only teleport around in a series known for moving fast as fuck for no reason
 
Paying for free entertainment is for fat people and hookers. I don't see this thing lasting long.
