So basically you're calling out every console user for having bought any bethesda game ever as a complete pleb?, I'm sure that'l make sense to those not using or owning a console but being an apparent twit for buying something that should work is still the fault of the creator not the customer.
I'm sorry mate but I just can't see how blaming customers for buying something that should work making any sense even at all.
It would be like me calling you an absolute fucktard for buying a burnt and charred bacon sandwich when it really wasn't your fault at all, it was the one who cooked it that was at fault entirely.
If you don't do hours upon hours of research before you buy something, it's entirely your fault. Clearly.

Except even when you do focus on just the one or two games they still end up bugged to hell.
Doesn't matter when they fly off shelves, are loved anyway and you embrace the modding community so they patch half the bugs for you.
I fully support Bethesda's approach. It's like my grandfather used to say, "If something is worth doing, it's worth doing right".
What of the people who buy the console versions?
Don't make such poor decisions?
So buying the console version of a game because you thought (rightly) that there would be no difference from the PC version is a poor decision? Because other than letting modders fix the buggy games Bethesda put out, there really isn't.
You also directly contradicted yourself. What your grandpappa should have said was "If it's worth doing... It's worth letting the plebs fix."

You people are putting words in my mouth. I'm not saying that they rely on fans patching the game for them. I'm saying that respecting your audience and embracing the modding community rather than ignoring it or actively discouraging it has beneficial side effects.
If you can't see how that's a good thing then you're being willfully ignorant.
When you say "you're an idiot for buying the console version that the modders can't touch, because they ended up fixing half the damn thing", of COURSE people are going to 'misinterpret' what you mean. If you can't see how you're bringing upon yourself, then you're being, well...
Embracing the modding community is all well and good, but you're essentially insulting everyone who didn't pick the version that allows that since you get a bugged up game that can't be fixed. That's just plain fucked up and arrogant, because 'fixing the game' isn't something you want to credit people outside the development team for, not to mention the fact that some people would rather have a work computer and a console rather than a gaming computer.
Captcha: half done.
Now that you mention it, captcha, I went on Google quickly and guess what? It seems that the console versions CAN be modded, so this was a massive waste of time for all parties, but fuck it, I'm posting this damn thing anyway because I've already used my daily effort allowance writing it.
Good day and good riddance to the lot of you.
