IMO they went cheap on pretty much everything but the gameplay.

they did, because 4 million dollar budget

whoever did eder and grieving mother and durance were excellent, i thought.

they should do the next game in that setting on whatever engine morrowind was on and do an homage to that instead of bg2

Eder and Durance were great. Sagani, Hiravias, and Kana were pretty good. I actually didn't have any problems with Pallegina. She just isn't given much to do.

Grieving Mother was pretty flat though I thought but I dunno maybe that was on purpose?

I wonder if they'll announce TES VI at E3. Fallout's more likely, but they haven't released a full game in almost 4 years.

They're gonna port Skyrim to UE5 and let modders make the rest of their money for them.

TES VI will just be a .gif of Todd Howard dancing on a pile of cash bundled with a developer's kit for Unity.

It's definitely gonna be fallout. They're going to wait a few years to make sure everyone has completely forgotten ESO before they announce what's next

The next Fallout will occur in the Pacific Northwest so they can make the whole game world a temperate forest.

Morrowind had varied environments

I mean I know everyone bitches about the Ashlands and Molag Amur being so huge but then you got back to Balmora or w/e after a long excursion and it felt nice

In Black Marsh it's all swamp, all the time.

i think theyd vary it up without going temperate forest crazy. its pretty much the only hope of ever having a game like morrowind in tes again

but they'll gently caress it upyeah they'll never even do it

if they modeled it based exactly on those images people on the official forums would be saying it looked totally unrealistic and they should have kept it grounded like Skyrim and Oblivion

Giving a crap about it sounds insane to me, frankly. Now you can get potentially better made DLC for poo poo basically. This is a hosed up hell world where people charge money for nonsense as it is... Why not open it up a little lmao.

It says Free, Paid, or Pay-What-You-Want. At the very least, all of the mods in that bundle are Pay-What-You-Want.

If getting paid for this stuff enables more people to make really big mods like Nehrim or Day Z or whatever, that's fine. I just don't wanna see some dumb gently caress try to sell me a set of armor or anime babes for 5 bucks non-negotiable.

The only folks actually getting paid is steam in the end, so hell, good move on them that will likely piss off tons of idiot gamers that try to reconcile there wasteful consumerism guilt with their hobby instead of just accepting life in modern society as a joke.

Oh wait I guess you can actually get the money from it. Hell I can't see why you'd be mad if you already are a kind of person who pays for video games in the first place since a lot of mod authors, especially people trying to fix a turd like Skyrim anyway, are doing work you would pay a shithouse company to do.

SunAndSpring

There's a minimum fee for all of them you gotta pay (which usually amounts to pennies), which is a little weird. You figure they could just do like Nexus already does and allow donations to modders instead of this.
