Maybe broke even? perhaps but not the money that they expected and projected I am sure. They were still selling Skyrim for almost full price 3 to 5 years after it was released. AND selling it. Microsoft needs to fire all those people that is in charge namely Todd Howard. Has one or two games left in him... NO. he doesn't. Proof in the recent decline from Fallout 4 to now that he doesn't. Fire them to prevent further damage. BUT, cooporations don't do that. They fire the employees and blame the customers because they can't admit that they fucked up and allowed senior managers to continue to work without being responsible for the results.

Hey even if the game play sucked. Which in recent years all of the games (gamebro) that they released has sucked story wise. All they needed to do is create a functional game and really strong modding tools. Fuck, they even have a fuckign store to sell mods. you would think that they would at least get that shit right. I know that they have heard that the mod authors not only create new content but fix shit. They can't even get that right. with mod tools and empty planets they (mod authors) could have added interersting landing zones and other stuff. In time, even entire quest liines (looking at alternate start) and other stuff. They aren't even sticking with the core thing that is working for them. How stupid can a company be?

WE don't need to know how to create a Hostess twinkie to say it taste like SHIT. That we don't like it or want to buy it. How stupid can you be?

Is it ready for mainstream? I'd like to play it but my new computer shit the bed. Just over a year old. Gonna be a hot minute before I can fix it.

Hey, here is an idea. Stop fucking around Skyrim and adding shit until you fix Starfield! If you are fucking around with the code in Skyrim, don't you think you should fix the game that is currently fucked up!

I just had video freeze and not work properly on Firefox. Had to finally reset it to get it to work properly. WTF. First start in safe mode and test. (Shift + open Firefox) If it does work in Safe mode, you can then select the reset option.

Unlike Todd Howards Version it really does just work A perfect quote if I say so my self. @Doublezero how stable is this ?

The time it took to update it wasn't worth it. If this occured after Fallout 3... (Fallout NV done by another studio) it explains why Bethestha is shit now. Sounds like it is just a ploy to save shit ton of $$$ as someone has to update it and keep it up to date cost money.

"You can mod anything except pronouns" Excellent quote IMO... lol

YES uploaded it to YT! Then people could upload it to their favorite sites (including Nexus). A permaban would be worth it! I would love to see their site crash with post of this on their forum threads, all over all the site. In comments and such as well. 100's and 100's an hour constantly 24/7/365. Work their moderators to the bone!

First it was "no pronoun change" now they are moving to gender swaps. Let's take a moment. In cyberpunk for example. A male wants to play a female V and get with Pam. Wouldn't that be more inclusive? It isn't hate. Also, a perma ban without even giving a warning. ^ breaking news.... LOL

I have both because it was given to me. I wouldn't have payed money for a re-issued game that is basically the same. Big Fluffing deal it is on the "new engine". Bethesda has proven time and time again that the "new engine" is the old engine pushed more and more which means it is more and more difficult to work with and more and more likely to break and crash. They are still trying to live the old glory days and not waking up to the fact that their shit stinks and that they either needs to create an actual new engine in house or use one of the other engines that are modern and actually work. Most of them have the modding options available as well. They just need to open those parts up. Unreal and the other U engine can be modded. Maybe not as easily as the gambro but it can be modded. Work a bit with the creator of that engine and I believe it can be worked on to add the features that they want. However, that would mean some $$$ and with what they have shown, they are one of the worst (at least to me) companies trying to do money grabs. AT least those companies that have those ingame purchases are delivering a functional game. (Looking at you Origin )

sO 12 gigs and days of maintance so that they (Bethesda) can give sell you horse armor. Sad thing is someone will say this is a good thing. Also sad that they didn't test Playstation to make sure that it at least fucking booted and ran before they decided to upload this patch... Sure having editions in Xbox and Playstation is going to create more work. Of course it will. It will also give more revenue. No brainer just like making sure that all the games boot. I might be able to see some (rare) configurations of gaming computers might have some glitches but correct me if I am wrong. Playstation and Xbox has tools to help develop and they are pretty much standardized (for editions of course) hardware. So should be easier to at fucking least make sure the dam thing runs. I am waiting for Howard to make some comment along the lines that you can load more than a hundred mods than you used to. Meaning the absolutely smallest single asset item like a knife. Lending people to think it is a HUGE amount of space only to be maybe a gig. It is so sad that people (the majority of people) even fans of Bethesda automatically assume the worst possible outcome with anything Bethesda does now. Some other modderes I know told me not to get the Xbox service to try the starfield (free) as it was broken and doens'st work as well as the paid game. Seriously? Microsoft bought Bugthesda for the IP and Bugthesda can't even have their new IP on the same level on computers and xbox? Wow. just wow. *I sometimes pay for the subscription to have a couple of months of gaming then I take a break. Makes it so that I don't get depressed at some piece of shit I buy and I can rapid play 100s of games at my leasure.

Watch grass grow? Paint dry? LOL

I was at work and was struck by what Todd Howard was stating. It was Cannon. They have to be referencing their contribution to the IP. Much like what Disney is doing to Marvel and other IP's that they aquired. They are revamping and reworking the IP to fit THEIR (political) THOUGHTS AND PREFERENCES. Microsoft with their head up their asses ... like they have had for the past 20 years or perhaps more, don't give a fuck so long as the IP makes them money. That is really the only reason they bought it. That and something to add to their offerings with XBOX.

This is fan fiction. Not bad IMO

I made a poll on the Fallout Show. LOL. (mostly for the LOLs the questions that is)

Who is watching ( going to watch) the new Fallout show? If you do, pleaes post thoughts and give comments.

Fan Fiction being something a common person would make. Pehaps a group of college film students creating something from an IP that they like. A coorporation creating content isn't "Fan Fiction". Especially if they are getting money for said project. Not some moeny from a patron account due to creating something cool. They are getting Big Bucks for this project. There were several inaccuracies in that film about Todd and Fallout that they made. But Hey. It looked good. Look at the CGI Power Armor!. Don't forget the ghoul! How cool does he look? (We arent going to talk about the acutal CONTENT and STORY of the series) I believe I managed to make it 4 episodes. Might have been 3 but doubt it was 5 of the Rings series. It was slightly longer than I probably would have watched due to being totally fucking confused by what the fuck was going on. That and trying to get past all the political crap they added. Lots of work to watch anything that has been recently release. With the comments from Todd Howard, it would'nt supprise me if he removed the games that wasn't produced by Bethesda and make those non cannon just so that this farce of a series would make sence and he would be able to shut up those complaining. Then again, why would he? All the fucking complaints about recently released games (including Starfield) didn't change what he does or says. He just ignores it. We really need to know what drugs he is on and get some of that shit. Seriously.

Fan fiction can be good. However, based on the past projects, it will suck.

I took a different path. Was a Brenton then did side quest to increase magic resistance and obtained equipment that increased it. As I went through development I increased the one handed sword health and shield stats. (if I remember correctly) in the end I could practically stand in the path of dragon's breath and take on hags almost as if they weren't doing anything. I forget all the steps I did but I was a mage / dragon killing machine.

This is one of the first major releases since they were bought by Microsoft, correct? If so they might be responding as they gotten heat for their shit. Also, they would use a poorly trained chat bot to start responding to negative post. Of course. Why not? They do half baked games, why not half baked chat bots?

Time to step up on a soap box. (Take this with a grain of salt. Remember everybody has an asshole but nobody really wants to smell it Unless you are left leaning LOL. Then you can't get enough of it) Watch some of the actors that have a good taste of fame. (Walt Disney) They start acting like nothing will go wrong with them. They start pushing their agenda etc. In the old Hollywood, the studios had a very strong control over them and gagged them and controlled what they said and did even outside of work. PR campaigns were made to help develop them and maintain their popularity. In this case, I would assume that they just lost their way and due to some fame, can't see that what they are doing is bad. Another issue is like with CD Project Red. They went PUBLIC and when they did many of the upper management (control) that was there is now gone. In the case of bud fright they wanted to bring in more business. They were the top dog but wasn't content with their customer base, they wanted more. They wanted a piece of the LGBTQ customer base (which is growing) to add to their bottom line. Without only YES men (and women) and no outside or fresh view being heard (or better in power) then they thought they weren't going to have any issues. At worst they would "signal" that they are LGBTQ friendly and move back to their main customer base. Had they done their proper surveys and research they would have easily learned that the two doesn't mix or at least mix well. With the current push for LGBTQ (looking at TARGET) and other companies, there is a population of customers that are getting fed up with all this. Bud LIght has that customer base in abundance. So TL;DR. Stupidity and a general lack of investigation and in some cases quality control (Bethesda) is the cause. At least IMO.

I came to bethesda through Fallout 3. I bought both Fallout NV and was given fallout 4 pretty much on day one. I like that type of game. I am not much into Oblivion Skyrim etc type games. I got them much later and on a big sale. So Starfield should be something I really should get behind. Not watch bethesda's behind in regards to the crap that they released. Since Fallout 76 again another game I should have been super interested in but wasn't. I have been very critical of their releases. Due to this I don't by their behind products unless I see an outstanding review from places and people I respect. Unfortunately I don't believe their ES6 will be any better. Now that there are pretty reliable reports from people that have worked with the engine and did mods that the game is setup to make it more difficult to do it.... That just shows me that Bethesda is gone. At least with this type of game. Sad. All they really had to do is give something inspiring (but buggy) and make sure the back end was such that it was good to mod and sit back and watch the sales fly. They currently either can't, won't or just fucking don't care.
