I love Bethesda’s games, I play them all the time. But as of late, they’ve been milking them more and more with small, useless updates to push paid content. And after I spent a month perfecting my modded load order, they produced yet another useless application update that breaks EVERYTHING and now I have to start all over (which means hours of uninstalling mods and clearing the entire game directory).
You make it very hard to love you, Bethesda.

Their apparent bait-and-switch on fallout 76 goods, constantly releasing incomplete products, greed, and a host of other issues made me stop giving them money. I was a paying ESO member when the fallout 76 stuff was happening and that was the last straw for me; no more money for them until they have a proven track record.
as of late
They’ve been milking their games for at least the last 15 years. Skyrim came out in 2011. How many versions of it have been released now?
It’s not just the re-releases, it’s the micro updates. They patch one thing or add some new paid content and break code that hadn’t changed in years for no reason
Disable automatic updates please.
Steam does not allow it.
My problem with Bethesda Game Studio games is that I am convinced that I love them, when I really don’t. The truth is I have always struggled to finish anything Bethesda Game Studio has made.
I bought Starfield when it hit PS5. I thought for sure the in the 2+ years since release they’d have time to work out the kinks from launch, like No Man’s Sky did. I’ve played maybe four hours, but driving the moon buggy causes the game to crash every time, and there hasn’t been a fix in months. I think it’s over for Bethesda and me, for good this time.
Thank you Todd “I only play barbarians” Howard.
That’s not lately, I stopped playing years ago because of it.
