I would think that it's cheap availability on GamePass and likelihood of frequent updates would make for a muted response to this one.

Plus I don't think it was protected to start with for modding purposes. People will be flying around in Thomas the Tank Engine by the end of next week.

For these reasons, I'd rather buy Bethesda games. As a company, they aren't assholes. I'd hate for them to get bought out by ea or something like all the rest.

You forgot Fallout76 and their own shitty launcher, well and the fact that Microsoft bought them already...

And horse armour.

And all their attempts at turning modding into a walled garden they could control and profit from.

At least they don't tread modders like Rockstar, well at least not yet I guess.
