My “nExT gEn” update experience:
- Get baited to re-play Fallout 4 through the new TV show + Next Gen update
- Be disappointed since the graphics aged like milk + Official HD texture DLC sucks
- Be disappointed since the update broke nearly all mod support
- Roll back to the release before the Next Gen update + Uninstall the Official HD texture DLC
- Install 205 mods, and happily play with nearly everything in 4K
FYI, most mods I installed are from:
- The Midnight Ride:

- Be disappointed since the graphics aged like milk
That’s kinda spoiled, lol
People have complained about FO4’s graphics since release. I always thought it was a good looking game. Coming back after the next-gen update I still think it looks good.
Brother the company is owned by Microsoft now. You can complain about their product in any way you want. Its sold under Microsoft, you can complain. Again, Microsoft
Yeah, but you’ll get a few hours in and uninstall because you stop playing.
Currently at 30ish hours and still enjoying it.
Reminded me that Bethesda does release some great / huge games.
Albeit quite bugged at release,
but since they (usually) embrace the modding scene, lots of this can be / has been patched and even improved by the community.
The Next Gen update is a stupid cash-grab though, and imo should have never happened…
An official modpack would have been much better.

Except that all of their patches broke all the mods.
FO4 also was a mediocre fallout game but a decent FPS and base builder
Skyrim Fans:
Console skyrim mod enjoyers are weeping having to re-download 75 mods because Todd liked the word Creations more.
The updates will continue until morale improves.
Reason #150 on why Fallout New Vegas is the best Fallout:
Bethesda despises it so much that it’ll never get an update, remaster, or get repacked into an anniversary edition.
No Todds, No Masters
Given that it was made by a different company, doing anything with it may actually be legally complicated.
Isn’t Obsidian also owned by Microsoft? Pretty sure it’s just a matter of Satya Nadella giving the greenlight
Yes. Which is why there’s so much speculation about the fallout rights being given back to Obsidian for more.
I wouldn’t mind west coast to be taken by obsidian and east coast by beth tbh.
Such a weird narrative that Bethesda hates New Vegas. Fallout 3 also doesn’t have a remaster or anniversary edition.
With Bethesda’s blessing, season two of the show likely revolves around New Vegas.
Personal conspiracy theory time:
The only reason they are going to New Vegas for season 2, is to lay down a whole bunch of Bethesda-fied revisionist history about the whole Nevada area.
They would want to torch the playing field, and make creating a New Vegas 2 that is worth a damn impossible, in anticipation of the possibility Microsoft might put Obsidian on Fallout too, after Outer Worlds 2.
After the studio closures Microsoft just did? Todd is probably, and absolutely justifiably, scared shitless with Obsidian and MGM Amazon’s ‘friendly’ competition.
This is starting to feel like their way of blocking Fallout London from releasing indefinitely.
bethesda has historically hated mods and the people who make them. its why their games have such a small modding scene
Well the updates to Skyrim, Fallout and lack of modding tools for Starfield seems to indicate that it is now a reality. I seriously cannot fathom why they would sabotage themselves like that. It’s absolutely obvious since at least Oblivion that mods are lifeline and reason for success of Bethesda rpg games yet here we are.
the games sold just fine on console, before modding was possible on it. never got this modding saves bethesda narrative. its just a neat addition
My gut feeling is that the procedural generation thing in Startfield somehow absorbs some people’s need for mods.
I seriously doubt that. Bethesda’s titles are generally some of the most moddable mainstream titles. I missed sarcasm.
