Anon noticed that Bethesda forgot to purchase the falloutfirst.com domain name before their announcement of their new subscription service, and capitalized on the blunder. Then this... Bethesda trying to one up Activision/Blizzard.

Ah, I see Papa Gundam up there Somehow, this is worse than Anthem. I don't know how Bethesda keeps doing it, but they're just unreal at this point. Not giving 2 shits about your own reputation for the sake of money is something that me back in 2011 would've never imagined to see from this company. At this point you don't know if it's Zenimax, Todd himself, or who the fuck it's to blame here. It's amazing how quickly they just keep lying. It's like one after the other.

They just need to convert it into a single player game, probably get some fans back into it. For an extra $100 a year, that’s exactly what you get. They can take that and stick it up where its warm and wet. I'm losing faith in Bethesda.

It really surprises me just how much bullshit from a CORPORATION people will allow. Only losing faith now? "Hey, consumers you are all shit, no refunds, and to avoid legal troubles, here, take these 500 atoms that'll let you buy nothing...... suckers. Also, have fun with your nylon bag that we advertised as canvas bags, furthermore, we also shit on you and do not expect us to do anything about our false advertisement.... S-U-C-K-E-R-S." Really, the whole ordeal with Bethesda made me realise just how absolutely ridicolous the gaming-community can be. Bethesda killed the entirety of their good-will in less than three days. It is such a shame that people enjoy the old, smelly, sweaty corporation pin-balls rubbed against their faces. Corporations are not people, remember it. Hold them accountable for their bullshit.

Because I've asked about 76 the game many times and usually the first responds is about canvas bags which is not the game and not the game developers. People also seem to forget that there are 2 Bethesdas. The game development company and the publishing company.

And being lumped togeather as if I'm a greedy ass hat because of upper management is bullshit of the finest order.
Two different companies one that actually creates the video games and the other one that is in charge of publishing and other activities. They have split since 2001

Bethesda Gamestudio is subsidiary to Bethesda Softworks. They are both subsidiary to Zenimax. In the end it doesn't matter to distinguish. It's all one big company.

Honestly, the distinction seems rather moot. If I say "Bethesda can choke on all the dicks", I'm not interested on which subsidiary or specific group of people within the conglomerate/entity/superorganism should get most or all of them. I just don't want to give this shitty company(ies) any more money.

Developers just gotta be happy I do not send them death threats. Second part, oh, so they were forced to provide people the canvas bags they promised? Well, aren't they nice?! I suppose I have to go ahead and forgive and love the guy who punched me in the face unprovoked, because he was forced in court to pay a fine, do time, and apologise personally to me, he is such a good guy because he was forced to do that! Nah, everyone has my respect and my love until they prove they are undeserving of it... Bethesda, Zenimax, etc etc since you care so much about subsidiaries, have proven they are undeserving of any level of positive attention from me with how badly they treated their customers.

So you blame children for the behavior of their parents? You blame the minimum wage cashier for the actions of the CEO? As someone who has worked in those jobs I find it stupid and unfair to blame people who didn't do anything and who can't do anything. I'm tired of people screaming in my face because we won't accept an expired coupon. A rule set in place by someone several pay grades above me who wouldn't even know I work for the same company if I walked up and spit in their face.
People who behave like this are childish ass holes who use the fact the people can't fight back as an excuse to punch down on them. And frankly it pisses me off.

No, I clearly blame the ones who are to blame. The developers better damn be happy I do not send them death threats or insults personally. If you have trouble distinguishing between blaming a corporation and blaming each individual working for said corporation, then you are the one who have some issues, not me.

And being lumped togeather as if I'm a greedy ass hat because of upper management is bullshit of the finest order. I'm currently working for a huge company with questionable business decisions myself concerning both the products and treatment of their staff. I get your sentiment. But as a consumer it doesn't matter who's to blame. I get a shit product. So I stop supporting the company.
The distinction is important to keep in mind though. Don't send death threats to devs! They are not reponsible for MTX in most cases. Don't send death threats in general, of course. But do reserve your anger for the company, not the individual.

I'd use other words to describe someone that would send death threats and insults but forum mods would not be happpy. So petty and sad you are. So someone who does not send death threats or insults to developers is suddenly a bad guy? Right my dude. I don't necessarily blame each individual developer for the terrible decisions made for a game. It'd be a very long list if I even wanted to, too much work. You just made a huge mistake and thought I cared about thinking of every single subsidiary as well, I'd rather just brand the company name as being the big bad thing, which is also not necessarily untrue. The greedy suits are the ones who make the company, afterall, they are the company. They make the decisions, they decide the ressources, etc etc, if every hiree feels targetted by that, that is on them and not on me, so as I said, they better be damned happy that I am not one who sends them death threats and/or insults directly to their facebooks and/or mails or whatever. The worst thing that could happen to them by me branding the company name, or studio, or whatever negatively, is that they lose their jobs... but if that is a result of the studio/company losing money then I count it as a win. It is not hard for game developers to get jobs anyhow. They choose that career and they choose to either comply with something they know people dislike and which will bring the industry to a halt much quicker and get fired regardless.

On the bright side, Bethesda doesn't produce anime. Imagine the death threats if you piss off anime fans.

While I simply don't condone the vitriol and hatred directed at the people who have no control over the company's doings, I do however support total abandonment of their business, and simply letting them figure things out and either improve dramatically, or die a swift, painful death for their failure.

That is fine. Vote with your wallet. Don't send death threats to people because someone did something you didn't like.
