    You’re both (fundamentally) wrong. Mods don’t take time or need any extra effort. As long as developers don’t install measures attempting to prevent modification, mods.

      Official support is a nice way of letting people easily keep the game alive. Not preventing it in any way is a baseline and should be demanded from all games tbh.

      Like I said, the conversation would be different if users and mod creators didn’t bitch about breaking changes in game updates.

        I can’t disagree with you, Bethesda gamers are the worst about it I think, like Fallout 4 got an update recently and everyone was PISSED.

        Like just don’t accept the update or roll back, we should be happy new stuff is still happening on a decade old game.

          To advocate for the people annoyed at Fallout 4, it’s hardly trivial to roll back an update, and Steam at the very least tends to update automatically so it can just happen without you noticing.

            At this point people should know to lock their beth games to not update automatically, learned that lesson years ago lol.

            But yes it would be nice if they made it easier to roll back to the last version like most other games lol

          Fallout 4 is different, updating a game years and years later to add useless paid shit is obviously going to piss everyone off.

          If it was an actual good update with some nice updates to the game, then the outcry would be moot.

          They also didnt have a branch on Steam for the old version, Bethesda just didnt give a shit, they deserve any backlash.
