*Best thing about Starfield was the 125GB I freed up uninstalling it.*

The "next-gen" update is literally Bethesda pulling off the classic smartphone manufacturer bullshit: They intentionally broke it, so you have to move on.
In case of smartphones it is so you buy a new phone and in case of Bethesda it is so that you buy Bethesda-certified mods from the Creation Club.

And in both cases there's only one solution: Disable automatic updates.

Based gigachads. Todd sucks. Bethesda sucks.

[halometroid]

Considering it took them more than a decade, no Bethesda is not scared. They can't make a game, Fallout London is 100% on Bethesda game/engine. What a bad take.

Now I’m getting really nostalgic for the Someguy series mods for New Vegas. I wish he could’ve finished The Siege of Firebase Zulu.

[derpdailygaming]

I used the gog mod and steam copy with little to no issue. Plus the almost mandatory additional mods. It’s very straight forward if you follow a simple guide

[JohnPeacekeeper]

It's basically the same feeling when they find out New Vegas is better than every other Bethesda Fallout game PERIOD.

Only this time they don't have the power to stop them from making more. And if they did actually try to shut down the modding community, they will alienate their ENTIRE fanbase.

[plisskenth]

I’m glad they could even finish it before any kind of infighting started or before they got a cease and desist letter, which I bet can still happen down the line

I spent a long time with my best friend talking about fallout 5 and we even drew out a whole map of previous locations

we came to the conclusion that in order of likelyness for the loction

Our top 3 were
Chicago, prevoiusly mentioned in fallout 4 and tactics, brotherhood of steel presence, large famous city, and general good location

New orelins / that whole general alabama area
Bethesda applied for a copywright for "fallout new orliens" in 2016, same thing as chicago, lots of landmarks and very famous city

Hawaii,
lots of millitary presence
Very well known place internationally
Very cool location
My personal favriot
Alaskas allready been done

Fallout London is to Fallout 4 what Fallout New Vegas was to Fallout 3.

[ArmoredStone]

Modders making these games for free, funded only by donations, makes the entire industry look bad. Hopefully we start seeing more consumer friendly practices soon with the increased pressure these projects apply

[justnoob]

It’s all gangsta until you remember that this whole project can immediately come crashing down the moment they update the game since it’s just a mod

[saintsrown]

I have 135 mods installed in Fallout 4, I can`t even remember playing a vanilla Fallout. For me Fallout is according to me and the community and not Bethesda. I know I`m wrong but.... it`s how it feels.

[aspicboat]

"I was wrong calling F4 their biggest mistake when it came out because of Starfield, which came out years later."
flawless logic there

[smash]

Bethesda just needs to make a suitable engine, release their impression of the game along with mod SDK and watch the talent roll in.

It's not a sleight on the studio, they have problems others don't, ie: investors, employee satisfaction, big-pressure deadlines.

[KenS]

I think most of the bugs and crashing are down to Bethesda and an engine that is basically untouched for a decade. If you run Buffout, which you pretty much have to, the ctd crash dumps are pretty much always the same and indicate that there's a real problem with the engine.

There are some issues that show the mod was not playtested well but Bethesda doesn't playtest so that isn't really a point of comparison.

There are a couple of quests that show the mod designers never tested them on an account setup how most players play, with water opacity turned on for instance. Which is frustrating and almost forces players to spend a lot of time messing around or look online for the solutions.

Those quibbles aside Fallout London takes the Fallout franchise and breathes fresh life into it. With a budget of nothing and a team of volunteers it is a stunning achievement. Too bad Bethesda with a team of hundreds and a budget of OMG cannot deliver Fo5 ever.

[ameno]

Bethesda peaked in 2011 and I wouldn’t count for it to come back in terms of quality. But it’s a good thing that we have so many masterpieces from them

[Criegrrunov]

Bethesda will feel even more jealous of Fallout London than they did for New Vegas, not only are others proving they can do Fallout way better than them, but unlike Obsidian, this dev team is not a big studio, they are just fans doing it for free.
