Obligatory

I’m not sure why you think that “bringing players back” is important when it isn’t subscription based, has no microtransactions, and no paid dlc. Obviously the goal at this point is to sell the game to new customers who are waiting for it to become a worthwhile purchase.

What are you talking about? The journalistic response to this game has been tepid at best, and downright hostile in many places.

That pub idea for Gogo would’ve been -amazing-. I was convinced for the longest time that Gogo was actually Setzer’s dead girlfriend, as the area you find him in has bits that look like they might’ve once been part of an airship—and his character description (at least in the launch SNES cartridge I had and still play

I’m sorry you can’t enjoy things

What do you mean, you people??

By far not the last they could have done - that would have been to cut their losses after the initial bug-fix patches, close up shop and accept the whole thing as a lesson on the harsh realities of the game industry. In fact, from a purely financial standpoint, that would have been the correct choice: there’s simply

I can respect that though. Their primary criticism wasn’t so much that the game released with not enough content to justify the price point, it was that their development team had a *bad* habit of showing off features that weren’t fully baked, and didn’t make it into the final game.

Near as I can tell, some people are control freak, micromanaging assholes who want that day by day status update from a developer who owes them nothing.

You’re admonishing then for essentially nothing.

It’s not the least they could do by any stretch.

That’s some royal-ass ‘we’ you’re using there. You mean yourself. If you are the king of the nerds, I never voted for you.

Players being able to see each other, was not promised. If I say “the chances of me coming over to your house are so improbably small that they border on impossible,” would it be reasonable to say I ‘promised’ to come over to your house?

got it (ps4 version) for 20 bucks on black friday at gamestop, lets say i am happy with my purchase.

How long before first content update for Fallout 4? Longer than three months, and it was paid. Just as a point of reference.

A positive spin on a free update for a game people claimed was incomplete? Why should it be seen as negative?

Who’s “we”? I complained about a ton of this stuff. It’s not everything, sure, but if this is the first of many free updates with this much change and consideration, then I’m all for it. I MIGHT even start playing it again.

This certainly seems like a big step in the right direction. Given all the hate they have received on Steam and in other sources (as a former purchaser, some of it seems quite justified to me), I think the “many of free updates” is really the least they can do if they want to see more copies at this point.
