I wish I hadn’t installed the update. I was hoping it would make the game run better on the steam deck, but it’s actually worse. I think they’ve increased the graphical fidelity, but it’s come at the expense of the battery. I found a work around to get the game launcher to come up so I could lower the graphics settings to improve battery life, but that doesn’t fix the bugs. They seem to have gotten worse with the update. Never change, Bethesda. Never change.
Oh man the Starfield modding scene is going to be a fucking ghost town.
It already is. Check it out on Nexusmods. I did so late last week and they couldnt even fill 1 row of new mods this week. Even Morrowind still gets that done.
Have they released a creation kit for Starfield yet?
“Soon”. That’s all we got to go on. It’s coming “soon”.
Soon ^^TM
Nope.
That never stopped any previous Bethesda title from being modded.
Oh, Bethesda. Bethesda, Bethesda, Bethesda.
What’s wrong, only that it breaks mods or does it break even for regular usage?
Really it breaks f4se which is the script extender for mods.
And it takes me sometimes 45 seconds to a minute to load when returning to the Commonwealth or large buildings like the library or institute.
Killed abandoned mods for money.
Damn and the next one for Dragon’s Dogma 2.
Those flickering shadows you get whenever a light source moves—like, you know, the sun
🤦♂️
Happens every time, especially if it has been years since the last update.
Bethesda games are just a jobs program for modders at this point
From the article…
The easiest fix is to own the game on GOG, which allows players to roll-back patches, but for Steam owners the process is a whole lot more convoluted.
… and …
A more straightforward perspective came from the team working on the enormous Fallout: London project, which was due to launch around now but has been delayed while the team works around Bethesda’s update. As the project lead says, “[the patch] has, for a lack of a better term, screwed us over.”
God dammit Todd
Everything I hear about AAA games is just straight garbage
Mine works fine without mods on the next-gen update. It’s looking much better than before on my widescreen monitor. I used to need mods to make it work in 21:9 and unlocked framerate, and now it’s all supported by the stock game so I’m pleased with it.
I did have a crash to desktop bug until I disabled the Weapon Debris graphics setting though. That was my one lame hassle that happened with it.
Because there’s a good experience buried under a mountain of extremely bad decisions. If the games lacked potential people wouldn’t care.
You living under a rock? Ghost of Tsushima, Spider-Man, Elden Ring, God of War, Doom Eternal, RE8, and Tears of the Kingdom are awesome AAAs of just the past 5 years to name a few.
It’s just that bad games tend to get more publicity cuz the mob likes to shit on them. Tbh, Cyberpunk wasn’t even a terrible game, it just dropped with performance issues that took over a year to mostly fix.
I’ll give you that all recent Ubisoft titles have sucked though.
Perhaps
I started to wait a year or two before I try them, that usually means they a) they got most bugfixes, b) additional content and c) they are on sale.
It just works.
I haven’t been having any major problems except for occasional framerate stuttering, but then I don’t use that many mods.
My only real complaint is that there’s really no new story content, it’s just a couple of new locations (Enclave checkpoints like FO3) some new armor and weapon types, and a handful of quests that are pretty much radiant quests with a coat of Enclave paint. Considering the download was like 10GB I was expecting more. If Google is telling me the truth, that’s bigger than all the other DLC combined.
I thought that it was going to be new Bethesda content, but then it was just workshop content, so it’s not substantial.
“Excellent Fallout series”
lol feck off
Do you think it’s bad? I’ve only heard good things about it 🤔
The Fallout fandom can be divided into two camps, Fallout fans and Bethesda fans. I don’t like Bethesda Fallout and from the little I watched of the show it wasn’t anything for me. 5/10 at best. I don’t care about ”the lore” or any discrepancies, I just thought it wasn’t very good.
Ah, so it’s more like the vibe of it for you, I guess? I kinda get that.
Lol shut up.
It changed a few small details like how becoming a ghoul works but other than that it’s really good.
It’s as excellent as a live action adaptation can be.
Nah, it’s good. Don’t listen to the salty “fanboys.”
There are literally like two discrepancies, but it’s really not a huge deal imo.
Hopefully London is around the corner
