    Not sure how to do the "EUUUUURG" emote.

    Bethesda needs to take their time and fix their engines rather than throwing games out the door like jazz on fresh prince.

    I'd rather prefer a good game than a game now. Lmao

    Huh... I don't recall many bugs in either Skyrim or Fallout 4. I do recall a few in Oblivion and Fallout 3 though.

    I don't count Fallout 76... that's Zenimax Online.

    It's all Bethesda.net now ...another freaking launcher I'll refuse. I haven't added another launcher in 8-9 years.

    ...oh, maybe they'll make people sign into Bethesda.net and Xbox Live or whatever they call it now.

    We're going to have to see how the new Xbox game pass subscription service works, even for PC. That is the money mechanism MS is using moving forward in order to play these titles. I finally gave up on Fallout 76 after almost 2 years. The nerf/rebalancing took all the fun out of the game. Why some users need to be punished because of clever hackers or folks with OP legacy weapons is beyond me.

    I did pre-order Deathloop. Hopefully, Arkane studios will do a better job than BGS did.

    I've had gamepass for PC since they did that $1 a month deal in the beginning. I've gotten value out of it, worth it IMO. The downside of it though is that the windows apps storage location is completely locked down, so forget modifying any files for modding.

    Also driver features don’t work on UWP apps and hooking is half-assed. Cringe.
