Fallout 4 Creation Club is now live

[+--QUOTE="Eumesmopo, post: 4255299, member: 66003"]This kind of practice is already very common with most F2P video games on Steam, but it is rather novel to see a full price game charging for mods. This sets an ugly precedent for what is to come in the future... If Bethesda is willing to go into that territory, then what can we expect of the 5th entry in the franchise? A free-to-play MMO filled with nothing but grind, RNG and pay-walls?

If nothing else, that would at least be consistent with their attitude of lowering the quality of their games more and more with every new generation.[/QUOTE]

JFC, you've probably hit the nail right on the head.

ESO exists. A Fallout MMO will allow Bethesda to settle down to look after a nice, profitable whore pig. They might just expand Boston to 1:1 scale and have a constant CTF with quests from NPC between the institute and BOS or some shit. Enclave to come soon!
 
Wow, so kewl.

Anyway, Zeno's edgyness aside.

How long do you think it will take for Bethesda to roll back this scheme too? This is getting even more negativity than their sstint with Valve.
 
People expect that they won't just either keep this, or try it again later when gamers are even more retarded?

Seriously, gaming is at an all time low, and only getting lower.

Only a matter of time before they make you pay for bullets.

I don't even pirate modern games, or Fallout 4, waste of HDD space.

In the meantime, Bethesda implemented a new file format for CC mods in creation kit update and it's blocked from editing. Could help with "mod piracy" I guess.
  • Support for Light plugin (.esl) file format. For more information on the new .esl format, consult the Creation Kit wiki. ESL support requires Fallout 4 1.10 update or later to work in game.
But you can easily convert it back to .esp. :lol:
Oh, and 255 plugin limit is gone with this one, or so Bethesda says.

Oh, BTW, using Nexus Mod Manager is now piracy.

I don't think they will roll back Creation Club. It looks like Bugthiefsda trying to keep FO4 and Skyrim's lifecycle as long as possible, until their next hype train gets announced.

I don't think they will roll back. More likely, they'll try to keep it around (though keep it low-key) and wait long enough for the negativity to go down enough for them to announce their next hyped up game which will probably make their audience forget their anger toward the CC because of 'hypez'.

They'll rely on what P.T Barnum said about people to keep the CC alive and kicking.

Is it pirating when the products aren't worth money? ;P

I have enough cash to buy modern AAA games, just can't be assed because they're trash.

Yes it is. Now seriously stop talking about piracy. It really is not allowed, and if you continue you'll get a warning.

/edit: Read the rest of the thread, since you're unable to actually read the rules or listen to all the people telling you to stop talking about piracy, I deleted a bunch of your posts and gave you a warning. Stop. Talking. About. Piracy. FFS.

What is F4 Animation Kit? Oh wait, Nexus ofc. Sorry, either this or pay for software from our greatest allies, goy, to do your job.
 
Sometimes I'm amazed Fallout: New Vegas even got made. In a world where the Deus Ex franchise is murdered by intentionally chopping up the story, where Ubisoft/EA are successful companies, where games like Sleeping Dogs are considered failures -- how did we even get a quality Fallout post FO3? It's a fluke on the order of monkeys with typewriters banging out Shakespeare. Christ, the future is dim.
 
New Vegas got made before the Mankind Divided fiasco. Things were actually somewhat nice back then.
 
I have just been sitting here reading all the comments on Steam related to this. This is what the, 2nd time Bethesda straight up tried to monetize free labor?

From a business perspective here is why this won't work. Modders move on, and most rarely come back to their "projects". All they are doing is incentivizing shoddy work, and running modders through a meat grinder.

If their intention is to completely and utterly decimate their modder fan base, this is how you do it. Its like completely depleting a resource and expecting it to magically replenish itself.

All I can do is hope that the anger swells to be loud enough for Bethesda to take notice. . .

What I'm really surprised by is the fact that they are not following Steam's trend with rejecting paid mods after the last fiasco. Are they seriously telling us that they didn't learn from that, and what modders are they drawing from? Last I checked all the good ones either said no to modding it or only post on the Nexus.

It's like trying to climb a smooth ice wall with a plush toy.
 
You guys think Bethesda actually knew about Obsidian's shared history with Black Isle and Fallout wgen they hired them to make a spin off? I am still convinced they just wanted a quick cashgrab sequel and by pure coincidence picked Obsidian as contractors. Maybe that's why they seem so dead set on pretending New Vegas doesn't exist, it was an accident that damaged what they wanted to turn the Fallout brand into.
 
I'm still reading the comments on steam, and well I'm a bit shocked. People are seriously upset and are beginning to fuel a riot train in there. It's like putting a bunch of angry drunk wasps in a bottle and adding more when you shake it, pretty soon the lid won't be able to contain it.

I don't think this is going to end well at all.
