I'm doing the G.I. Blues quest, where the protection you hire is suspected of running a racket to drum up business. Part of his business model is faking being ambushed, and "killing" them for your protection. However, during this staged ambush, we were attacked by real Freeside Thugs. If the game responded to in-game variables instead of the hard code, there would be no reason to suspect this guy of being a cheat.

Still, kind of amusing.

So with consoles added to the equation... now console gamers are being forced to download additional useless data, and they've got even more space constrictions than most PC owners...

We don't know if this is how it's handled on consoles, though. Then, there's this:

General Known Issues:

Purchasing Creation Credits while logged into more than one XB1 profile may cause purchases not to register properly. We recommend only logging in with the XB1 profile that is linked to Bethesda.net to purchase Creation Credits.

We’re working on solutions that would not require Creation Club archives to be part of the game’s patch.

https://bethesda.net./user.php?db=.1.user=topic/87400/creation-club-faq

So they're aware that it's an issue for people, and are working on a way to fix it. The likelihood that this practice will continue in the future is doubtful if the work on their backend works. They also have a fiscal reason for it as well, because this isn't like disc-locked content where you couldn't access the files easily. Still, that they didn't have this thought of beforehand is absurd. How can a company so predominately a fixture in the PC market and modding culture for the last 15 years have no idea about these types of things?

The funny thing is that according to the comments in the TC's video, it's possible to extract the files on PC with Bethesda's creation kit and basically make your own esp to allow you to use the mods without buying a key. They just freely gave you the textures but no file that allows them to run, which is easy to create yourself if you know how.

Based on what he showed in the video I don't know why you'd waste the time :\

Sure, but it's funny that Bethesda managed to fuck up their implementation so badly that they gave you everything you need to pirate their "DLC."

There's also the very likely supported position that PC gamers weren't the targets of the Creation Club. PS4 didn't have mods because Sony has stringent requirements and hates playing with other people. With the CC, now they do. Let's see if the money generated is enough to offset the hit to their public relations.

Still, those prices are fucking garbage. $5 for a re-skinned suit of power armour? $1 for a coat of paint? Get your head out of your ass, Bethesda.

No one likes their paid mods bullshiy last time. No one likes it this time.

They'll keep trying until it gets accepted. I wouldn't be surprised if they try barring free mods (thus requiring a price being set) just like how Microsoft forbade companies from releasing free DLC, thus creating this bullshit mess in the first place.

Shit, they started heading in that direction by delaying the creation kit until after the first couple of DLC packs were released. FOSE4 took forever to get going as well. Bethesda is trying to ruin what makes their games unique.

Battlefield does the same thing

That's a little different because Battlefield is an online multiplayer game. Even though not everyone will buy the gear, you still need to have the files locally to have it display properly on your client. It's basically the same thing that they do in MMORPGs.

They'd been building and researching nuclear tech well before the Trump administration. Trump is the worst possible person to have involved in this nuclear showdown at the O.K. Corral, but I don't think it's a far stretch to believe that we'd be in the same relative situation regardless of who was the POTUS.

You can deny it all you like but it's true. This is merely a way of protecting themselves from us.

You know what did that? Having mortars and missiles that could hit Seoul with relative ease, and a DMZ that ensured an uneasy peace. NK was left alone until it started rattling its saber in its scabbard. The world happily forgets about NK until it starts doing stupid shit like this.

It was depth within the specific topic TC was addressing, the transition of F3 asset in F4.

Actually, no it wasn't. What I wanted was how each individual game expressed depth within the context of that game. I wasn't looking for anything bridging the two games together, merely how the writing and the characters expressed depth in that specific game. I just didn't bring this up because I would have been accused of moving the goalposts, when my only crime is not explaining what I wanted well enough.

Here's a video that goes into the technical aspect of the Creation Club. If what he says is true, and it doesn't change on Bethesda's end, it's going to automatically download mods to your game that you didn't pay for. Not only is this going to eat up a lot of space (the 13 items available are up 680MB alone), but now it's ostensibly acting like disc locked content, where you pay a nominal fee to get a key to unlock the content. GG console users who only have 500GB HDDs.

Oh, and according to this guy, every time new content is downloaded from the creation Club to the game, it changes the executable. That means things like the script extender will be very difficult to use, and will have to be patched and updated frequently. A lot of the beefy mods use the script extender to operate. This is going to break a lot of mods.

As a PS4 user, that's fine by me. You're only looking at this from a Pc user PoV.

If Beth created a market on the modding. They could overpower Sony's restriction on mods, while also implementing security and stability for said mods. Maybe this practise allows mods makers to make money to, giving people incentive to make more mods for PS4.

At the end of the day, this is all like DLC'S. Which already exist.

A few problems with this:

1) All of the mods will be developed in-house, along with a few specially selected modders to "maintain quality". Will the percentage of the profits to the modder outweigh the amount they'd get via donation? How much of a slice is Bethesda getting? Making mods for the PS4 will be irrelevant if you can't even get signed on to the Creation Club's roster.

2) They need to offer a better selection than re-skinned textures of existing equipment, as well as lowering the cost of them. Paying $5 for power armour? $4 for Chinese Stealth Suit? $3 for a slice of self-aware humour (while ignoring the irony of it)? $1 for a coat of paint? 50 cents for a new Pipboy skin? These are all freely available on the Nexus. Yes, we're talking about modding on consoles, but these ideas came from somewhere. You could argue that Bethesda created the Hellfire Power Armour themselves in Fallout 3, and therefore aren't really copying the offering on the Nexus, but when the Nexus offering looks better than the official one...

3) DLC. Downloadable Content. In a sense, mods are just a faction of DLC, but the term 'mod' in this context has existed far longer than 'DLC' has. Back then, they differentiated between mods and what were known as 'expansion packs', which usually offered far greater content than the few KB of data a mod would supply. To me, 'mod' means modifying existing content to create a certain aesthetic - the key point there is "existing content". DLC is something that's built completely from scratch using the existing framework; you're adding something to the game, not altering it. So far, all Bethesda has done is create mods for Fallout 4 - mods that are freely available and not worth spending money on. I won't support this.

Sadly, I don't think the amount of crying/outrage about this will do anything. All it takes is casuals and whales to splurge up all this shit and it'll become common(it almost always happens). Just look at F2P mobile games.

At least those games get by with the caveat that they're free to play with micro-transactions. They produce a free product and subside on the people who buy micro-transactions. Having micro-transactions and loot boxes in full retail price games is just gross.

so people are angry and afraid off moders out there wanting to earn some money and sell their work instead of doing it for free !

No one is angry at the modders for wanting to make money off of their work. What they're angry at is Bethesda seeking to muscle in on that racket and effectively curate a marketplace where you can buy stuff you could get for free elsewhere. The logistics behind it make no sense on the PC, where 99% of the modding community resides. This only makes sense for the console players.

That's completely opinionated and depends on how much time you spend on the game. I can write paragraphs about the depth in the Fallout games Beth has developed, the depth of story and dialogue, definitely the scope of their game.

@OEIO999 Please do. I would like to hear your thoughts on the depth of story and dialogue as it relates to Fallout 3 and Fallout 4. Note that you're not allowed to include Fallout New Vegas in this, because that was developed by Obsidian, and not in-house by Bethesda.

I personally find him insufferable, so no thanks. But I've previously listened to a couple TotalBiscuit videos on the subject and at least from that take it sounds like hyperventilation about mostly nothing, and that's coming from one of the most PC master race dudes you can imagine that preaches about consumer rights whenever possible.

Then here's a video from someone else.



The Creation Club is good in theory. A lot of things are good in theory, but game companies always find a way to cynically ooze every copper out of it. This looks to be no different. With how much of a colossal failure paid mods were in 2015, I'm not seeing much of a reason to give Bethesda the benefit of the doubt. If they offered some official substantial stuff - new settlements, maps, etc. - then it might be worth it. So far, all they've done is re-skinned the Pipboy and copied some armour mods from the Nexus, while doing a mathematically obtuse system for buying things. Nope, I'm not buying paid mods, Bethesda. Sorry. Go fuck yourselves.

Oh, one more thing. Remember when Bethesda launched the Gun Runner's Arsenal for New Vegas? It added a host of weapons, ammo, and mods to the game. The cost? $4. What are they charging for the Hellfire Power Armour? Essentially $5. You're paying more for less content.

So? Them taking the lion's share still leaves the modders with more money than hoping for donations. And if memory serves they're actually on commission to be paid during the development process, so it's not like they're reliant on a smash success for it to be worthwhile to them. And I think they had guidelines in place that previously made mods can't be taken down and then resubmitted to this, it has to be new content.

Not seeing the big deal, aside from crying over wanting stuff for free.

M...maybe watch the video.
