There’s nothing like making a somewhat decent shell of a game, and then counting on unpaid labor to make it worth the price to play it.

Isn't that kinda the entire point to Bethesda games and has been since at least oblivion? The modability of their games has long been their big selling point.

[–] Pratai@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If the selling point it’s that they require mods to work correctly, and they don’t pay those that out in the countless hours to make them, they shouldn’t make games. Period.

I refuse to support this bullshit.

And that's completely fine too. But plenty enjoy and support it anyway, it's working pretty well for them so far whether that pleases you or not.
