Remember when games weren't on as many platforms as Skyrim? Why can CDProjektRED release DLC for 20 dollars that gives you +45 hours of story, a huge new map, plenty of new characters/side quests and armors/swords etc etc...but all Bethesda can give you for 15 dollars is survival mode that used to be free?Saelune said:Remember when games didnt look like Skyrim?

Its DLC. Its extra. If they wanted to be mad about the lack of survival, they should have done it in 2011.BabyfartsMcgeezaks said:60 bucks is a lot of money and Skyrim is still one of the best selling games of all time, yet releasing a higher difficulty for money ISN'T greedy? It's not like they're in desperate need for more money that they have to sell something everyone else is giving out for free.Saelune said:I think its disgusting that people forget that for a mere 60 or less $, many people have gotten more playtime and joy out of these games than they have out of 200+$ worth of other games, yet complain about Bethesda being greedy.BabyfartsMcgeezaks said:Pretty disgusting, it's also disgusting that people don't see this as a big deal and actually defends it.
You're basically telling people to stop enjoying the games so much unless you want to pay more money because more more fun should be more expensive.
They could have just as easily not put in the extra work to make this content. They could have just moved on. Instead they had the audacity to ask for compensation for their extra work? The nerve, right?
I bet you would never dare ask for overtime pay for doing more work, would you?
Edit: The game still works right? Its not like the game wont work if you dont buy the survival mode.
''Extra work'' Yeah, work that modders gladly done for FREE for a decade or two. So yeah, they could have just not put in extra work since you can the Survival mode for free by modding your game.
NOONE asked for this, they could either release it for free or not at all. If they expect to be paid for ''overtime'', they should've released content worth buying and content people will buy. It's nothing but greed, the creation club is nothing but greed, how you can not understand that is not my problem.
No shit? Noone claimed otherwise. I don't even like Skyrim but at least I can see the issue here.
It seems it is the people complaining who are the greedy ones.
Yeah it's not the companies who once released something for free but now charges money that are greedy. Remember when map packs used to be free? Then they started charging for them on consoles and people bought them, now they're charging 15 bucks for 3 maps on all platforms.
It's weird that something used to be free but isn't anymore, huh? This is probably just the beginning.
And it sounds like you are blaming Skyrim for something EA and Activision and Capcom had already done years ago and since. Why take it out on Skyrim and Bethesda when I suppose you should be yelling at Capcom and Streetfighter x Tekken, not THAT was greedy.
Skyrim is one of the most sold games of all time (30 million copies as of last year) but they can't release a mod for free? Modders make mods like Survival mode for FREE on their spare time but Bethesda must charge 15 bucks for the same mod. Yeah, it's clearly not about squeezing more money out of your loyal fans at all.
Glad to see you've resorted to trolling.
But yeah, keep on supporting bad business practices, maybe soon you'll have to pay for Easy mode to :^)
