>We’re pleased to announce that RAGE 2, Wolfenstein: Youngblood, Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot, and DOOM Eternal will be released on Steam as well. We will also be bringing Fallout 76 to Steam later this year.
No, they just realized they don't have the trust after the tremendous trainwreck 76 was so they are trying to get it back.
Bentley Fisher
As long as there are choices for us consumers, I think it is a good thing.
Luke Ramirez
Is 76 still a buggy piece of shit?
Jayden Ramirez
I bet Steam will open the games through the Bethesda launcher just like Uplay. At least they came to the conclusion that Bethesda launcher does not have a sufficient user base.
I hope they distribute the DRM-free version of Fallout 3 and New Vegas outside of GOG in a future. I don't like that just one store has the DRM-free, working version.
David Ross
>Shit, this launcher thing isn't working. Took them awhile.
Of course it is. Its basically ran by a skeleton crew. Right now is when they're dropping all their dlc shit but its stuff like crafting drinks or protect a couple robots.
Adam Foster
Why? Now that is where it doesn't fucking matter You bought the game and you 100% own it, what's the problem?
Kevin Flores
Epic's check wasn't good enough i assume?
Nathan Sullivan
How long did that last? Was it even a year? I hope to fuck launching their games doesn't launch their launcher like ubishit
David Russell
Origin next?
Grayson Baker
I was just hoping they at least tried, but I am not surprised.
Gavin Wilson
inb4 it's a UPlay kind of thing. You buy and launch it through Steam, but it then launches the Bethnet launcher which then launches the game.
Chase Campbell
Wait doom eternal wasn't coming to steam in the first place? Were they gonna lock it to fucking their launcher? What the fuck
Jose Diaz
I bet this is the right answer. They tried to push that garbage launcher with an even worse game and fucked up, now they're doing damage control. Can't wait to see Todd trying to bullshit us on E3
Michael Stewart
they know Wolfenstein will bomb, especially if its stuck on 1 storefront on PC, and Fallout 76 needs the boost in sales and although doom eternal still can do well, bethesda needs all the money they could get after 2 straight years of all their games bombing
they were hoping 76 would be their fortnite
Josiah Mitchell
>You think Valve gave them some deal?
Not being Bethesda's Launcher.
Oliver Sullivan
>You think Valve gave them some deal? I think they went "Oh fuck, 76 was the worst dumpster fire in years, no one wants to use our shit launcher and we've basically tarnished our name and threw consumer goodwill down the drain...let's at least attempt some good PR." I mean just look at the wording of the message in regards to 76 compared to the other titles. >We will also be bringing Fallout 76 to Steam later this year. It's clear embarrassment that they even need to bring it up publicly like that.
That was expected. Whoever goes to EPIC are brainlets who rely on nVidia and Unreal Engine partnership monetary fund. They don't have the interest of PC gaming, they have the interest of nVidia/EPIC dominance.
Ian Young
holy shit saved I was worried I'd miss out on rage 2
yep, they were trying to get people to warm up to it before the new TES game and starfield come out
Andrew Garcia
Very based
Isaac Barnes
I just would like to have more stores to buy DRM-free games and not just GOG.com. Amazon, GamersGate and Humble Bundle are already selling the Steam'd versions of those games and have capacity to offer downloads.
Anthony Thomas

no, bethesda shareholders are probably panicking because of their abysmal sales numbers, maybe some of them even read what angry consumers have been asking for online
Zachary Cruz
you can keep fo76
Logan Harris
easy attempt to earn some goodwill from redditors who will lose their shit over this
Adrian Fisher
Oh thank god, i thought there that will be missing out on our portion of shitty games, that no one wants.
Stop blaming the fucking engine, Bethesda that is lazy with everything
Thomas Reyes
They can't force their launcher after FO76's failure. ...Or can they? Ya sure it's on steam, but like ass creed it might still require beth launcher. But it's not a bad thing though, it's very easy to install.
They never officialy said that any game but Rage 2 would be Beth-Launcher exclusive, they only announced it for RAGE2 and people feared they might do the same with Doom and the other games.
Justin Turner
>i thought there that will be missing out holy shit are you having a stroke?
Jaxson Reyes
>Stop blaming a some 20 year old engine
Jeremiah Rogers
This. They were hoping that F76 was their ticket for their own battle.net.
Noah Kelly

Yeah. Has Bethesda ever fixed a bug? Fallout 4 still has the same bugs Morrowind did.
Hunter Clark

Noah Jackson
They are stand alone dlc that are only two to three hours long, not full games
Juan Stewart
No point talking about something that's still 3 years away.
Brayden Garcia
>Fallout 76 For what purpose? Why would anyone touch this filth?
Carson James
its true though. People still manage to make great mods on original doom or quake engines. All depends on talent and effort. I other words, something Bethesda doesnt have
Speaking of co-op, does Doom or Doom Eternal have campaign co-op?
Elijah Hernandez
The issue with Gamebyro, at least the version they use, is that it's a Frankenstein's monster of an engine. They've said how if you look through the code you'll find some random shit you didn't even know was there. Obviously the actual programmers have their share of the blame but the engine itself is a mess.
I still stand by this as good design. If this was the fastest and most efficient way to get a train going, then so be it. Games are all about smoke and mirrors. If you want to show off how bad they are, look no further than the bane of their existence, ladders.
Julian Hill
>Doesn't even have BJ
Tyler Barnes
can you even mod f76
Lucas Green
Epicbros...
Carter Collins
Its really not the engines fault. Its Bethesda fault. Its like blaming C# for yandere sim being dogshit. They have that shit nigger rigged so bad. I remember someone working on NV talked about how they were trying to make it so when your character reloads something like a revolver the animation would actually reload the amount of bullets missing and when they did it broke how the game would tell a flag went off so you couldn't do any quests.
Daniel Lopez
Because the Quake 1 engine and upgrades were coded properly. Gamebryo was hacked together with glue just to Morrowind to run, and its only gotten worse from there. A dev once mentioned how there are like 13 types of AI controller classes in the engine because its easy to just write your own AI class than to try to modify the spaghetti that other people hacked together.
Samuel Price
Technically yes, but since it's always online beth can also ban you for those mods
Hudson Walker
its less gamebyro and more of all the shit bethesda tacked on to it that they still don't fully understand. A lot of the stuff people claim is Gamebryo's fault like the weird physics glitches has nothing to do with gamebryo and more with the incompetency of whoever is in charge of the physics systems at bethesda. Half life and fallout 76 use the same physics engine but half life has none of the problems that fallout 76 does when it comes to the physics.
Jordan Murphy
>Confusing ingenuity for laziness.
Spotted the zoomer, if it does the same job every single time, so why design a whole new system and waste precious man hours solving a "problem" that doesn't actually exist when the player plays the game and doesn't rip the game apart?
>working My copy of New Vegas works just fine dude.
Jordan Cook
I swore that I would never buy another game from Todd after the disaster that was Skyrim but I love Sci-Fi and might honestly get Starfield if it comes out on Steam
Anthony Reyes
>That image I'm not sure if that is the most retarded thing ever, or the most brilliant
Jonathan Baker
It's good design by way of a modder bruteforcing through the shitty engine to create something interesting.
Oliver Martinez
So everyone is arguing engines again. Let's put this to bed. The issue is partly Gamebyro, part not. Bethesda, in their infinite wisdom, decided that the best course of action was to simply fork the engine so that they wouldn't have to pay the license. This resulted in their 'creation' engine. Not only introducing a whole host of new bugs, but keeping old bugs that Gamebyro has since fixed. Bethesda do not have the talent to actually make anything of note and this is only made worse by using what is essentially an outdated buggy shit engine. Modders can tell you 100% that the engine of the game is to blame, since they have to do some really weird work around for the game to even do some of what they want.
While the quality of Bethesda's games wouldn't go up if they ditched the creation/gamebyro and moved on to Unreal or hell, even Unity. At the very least modders would be able to do more.
Ryan Campbell
Todd could buy Epic with his own money alone, just imagine Bethesda. Epic is just for shitty irrelevant developers who need guaranteed money to survive
Jayden King
NOOO EPICBROS STEAM WAS SUPPOSED TO DIE MY CREDITSCORE NOOOOOO
>Release FO76 >Everyone hates it >Obsidian makes fun of you as marketing for thier game >Epic bribes Obsidian to only release thier game on thier shitty launcher >Everyone hates Obsidian >Todd releases all thier future games on Steam once again >Everyone loves Beth again
is this a joke saying it's silly actual real-world combustion engines are basically magic which one of us is retarded/autistic
Jordan Gomez
Just pirate it. I'll never buy a Bethesda game after Skyrim and Fallout 4 being so shit. 76 shows they just don't care.
Jaxson Sanders
her tits are already sagging below her elbows and she looks like 22 at best, lmfao @ this roasties life
Jonathan Russell
Todd had a four digit IQ.
Andrew Green
It's both. It's a creative work around for devs that can't figure out how to make an actual vehicle, but it's bad in that it promotes laziness in avoiding making vehicles. Their devs could have figured out how to get the player into alternate states of locomotion a while ago, but they simply refuse to try because their previous methods 'work just fine'. Ladders, actual swimming, flight and cars could have been done for years if they actually gave a shit to try.
Christopher Stewart
>Outer Worlds pisses off fanbase by going with EGS >Bethesda sees this as their chance to strike back after getting shit on DO YOU SMELL WHAT TODD IS COOKING
It's not you fucking morons. This laziness leads to a game about rebuilding civilization and having the ruins of automobiles having NO VEHICLES AT ALL despite having ruined cars all over the damned place.
Kayden Sanchez
That didn't take long. I wonder how Epic shills will cope.
Adrian Gonzalez
This man gets it
Daniel Wood
Will Starfield be the Mass Effect us fans have always wanted?

Zachary Barnes
This is all a lie, you still need to use bethesda launcher and steam together, just like uplay
Oliver Cook
Another skyrim port. Also, what happened with that Bethesda game that popped up that had the count down trailer?
Juan Young
Doom Eternal has an invasion system. People can drop into others games as demons trying to kill you. Unknown what rewards this gives the player who opts in to try this.
>it's normal for young girls to have tits sagging to their belly button kek sorry for whatever hamplanets you're forced to touch ugly faggot

Wyatt Powell

Ayden Ortiz
It's not gonna be anything else, ever.
Parker King
C'mon, don't make me defend Bethesda. There's a popular phrase that says "No one notices good design but everyone notices bad design" Unless you notice it and it feels wrong, then it's bad design. You wouldn't notice the train had it not been for someone posting about it. IIRC the ending cinematic for New Vegas is actually the MC standing in a room with Ron Perlman while the camera is looked on a wall showing off the slideshow. If that was the most efficient way to get what the devs wanted, that's good design.
Caleb Jackson
Holy shit you might as well post an image that says "I've never seen a nude woman first hand". Better yet make a trip that says "lonelyincel". I just pray you're actually trolling.
I think the worst part of this is that people will still flock to Bethesda's games like they're some oasis in a desert. All is forgiven because they came back to Steam. Fuck.
Why would skyrim have cars? it has horses or something
John Torres
I just want more options to get the DRM-free version. There are stores that have Fallout 3 / New Vegas only as a Steam key despite the fact that they can offer DRM-free downloads as well.
Carter Flores
Fallout 76 will release at a severely reduced price or F2P, wonder which one
Asher Martin
>Bethesda does something slightly less retarded than usual
Good for them
Don't care if people put shit on Epic Store or any other launcher in and of itself so long as they're not buying into the exclusivity meme
Adam Davis
Why doesn't fallout have cars? (A: Because they programmed horses and they can't niggerrig the horse scripts and animation into looking right with vehicles) That is my point
John Cook
I completely agree but I think that when people criticize Gamebyro it's because they know Bethesda isn't using a "clean" version of the engine. They're using the version that still has to reuse Skyrim coding. Wasn't there things in F76 that was named after Skyrim commands? Like referring to fireballs or mana or something. If Bethesda actually gave the programmers say, a year, just to rebuild the engine, clean all the useless shit that's creating all those random bugs they can never fix, then Gameyro wouldn't be a problem. But that won't happen. The same bugs from Skyrim will still be in Starfield.
Carson Mitchell

Chase Phillips
More like reuse Morrowind coding. That's really the problem, Bethesda refuses to do a code clean up. Their shit would run ten times better if they went through and removed some of these old call functions that don't actually do anything and are responsible for over half of their current games crashes. But their current staff barely understand how their games function at all.
Jackson Flores
Wrong. The only game of theirs I am looking forward to is Doom and that's it.
Mason Edwards
>we're back on steam >but you're free copy is on bethesda launcher It's not like i don't own it on steam already, it's just annoying
How well off is Bethesda anyway? Maybe they could release their engine code to modders and give a million dollar reward to anyone who unfucks their code. This would 100% never happen but I just wonder what FO76 and al their other games would look like on a clean, bugless engine.
David Jackson
Sorry Todd, but your turds smell worse than this single one by Obsidian.

I was actually pretty worried about having to get doom on Epic or Bethesda's launcher so this is good. It didn't have to be steam, just not those fucking two.

Mason Evans

Zachary Adams

Ayden Clark
More like they looked at sales figures for the shitty bethesda launcher thing and realized they couldn't stay in business with their exclusivity nonsense.
BTW if you shitters still don't see it, the industry is trying to pull this 'exclusivity' shit on PC now in order to mimic what they did on consoles - divide the playerbase into artificially created """platform wars""" so they dont see how badly all sides fuck them over via the whole "oh well you can only get it here so the price is going up!" shit.

What are you talking about? Every game on steam can have market like TF2 or CSGO. People buy and sell for money and part of income goes to game devs as a fee. It got introduced like 8 years ago.
Ian Sullivan
Why do you care about what I think? I don't like the DRM-free de facto monopoly GOG has.
Charles Evans
This is just damage control. 76 was the premiere game on their own launcher and that game was a massive fucking failure and by extension is damaging the Bethesda store. This combined with giving away morrowind for free but only on their store are attempts at garnering goodwill.
I don't think they realize just how much they lost from 76 though. Like holy shit it was like a spell had been lifted. Bethesda had been getting passes from people for years and 76 just snapped everyone out of it all at once.
Levi Gomez
enjoy it while it lasts. Once she's done you get to look forward to flabby veiny tits like a deflated tube sock once they shrink back down.
Tyler Cruz
that sounds like fun
Kevin Bell
Bethesda is known for fixing bugs after release, after all.
Has the magic necessary to unfuck it been invented yet?
Isaiah Cook
You'd think that, but some people have an autistic obsession with Bethesda. My fiancé's brother gets pissed when you tell him what a mess 76 was. Let's Go came out around that time and he thought that was the game that killed the Pokémon franchise. It was some real twilight zone shit.
Charles Edwards
>wolfenstein didn't that shit bomb spectacularly? Stupid white-ass nahtzee.
Dominic Wright
My mistake. I was just thinking that the creation club is Bethesda's version of the workshop, meaning what the steam market would get is creation club items, meaning Bethesda would offer their modders a worst deal on the creation club while Bethesda then puts those items on Steam's market for more money for themselves.
Samuel Fisher
>Bethesda had been getting passes from people for years and 76 just snapped everyone out of it all at once. This was beautiful to watch but unfortunately, they don't need much to bring that spell back up.

>Skyrim: Return to Steam Edition
Joshua Jones
Fallout 76 doesn't have creation club as far as I know
Juan Morgan
Not yet. They intended to add mod support to 76 eventually.
Samuel James
Creation club is not paid mods, it's the devs at bethesda who get to put their little mods up for a pay check bonus.
Yea they still plan to add mods, but Creation is not mods.
Connor Parker
Wow its almost like their games were selling like shit.
Joshua Hughes
yep after fallout 76 they burned the good will for a fast cashgrab
Oliver Allen
More like nobody bothered with Bethesda Launcher and the games aren't selling that well so they brought them to Steam.
Valve for all its faults will never stoop low to Epic's blatant bribery and rampant lobbying. If a massive company like EA and Activision never thought of doing it, a tiny company like Valve wouldn't do third party exclusive shit.
All Epic is doing is just poisoning the well for themselves despite propaganda that their games "sell better" with Epic.
Connor Taylor
>bethesda game without the possibility of unofficial patch mod Umm maybe
Xavier Johnson
Wait, what. Can't you, like, put up your mods on it?
Josiah Jenkins
Todd knows that Bethesda PR is at its lowest
Whenever Starfield shows up watch him proclaim that the game will be exclusive to Steam and Bethesda Game Launcher
All the attendees, anti-Epic people, disillusioned Obsidiots and Bethesdrones will cheer Todd and proclaim Bethesda as PC gaming's savior...then 1 week after release these groups will go back shitting on Bethesda for releasing a poorly made, buggy ass game
Christian Lopez
No? Creation is a platform for anyone who works at bethesda to post their own mods for a pay raise for the month.
They have ANOTHER platform for mods, that is free and for anyone to post mods as long as it is in the file size limit (Which I think is 5GB?) and is SFW.
I'll grab you Creations link.. one sec.
Levi Morales
No, their launcher is just a failure, just like Epic's.
Juan Wilson
creationclub.bethesda.net/en Here you go, it's actually a smart system, sadly they did not make it wide stream that it's basically a way for their employee's to get a bit of extra pay.
Samuel Martin
Basically.
Joshua Gomez
>exclusive to [multiple outlets]
Hunter Long
I... am so confused. Why was it advertised as paid mods then?
>and outside development partners I think it's good for employees since it's more money doing something they love in their free time. But it's not like it's just for them, they say that you can become a creator as well. It's not like Steam's workshop for say TF2 where everyone can put stuff in there and then Valve chooses which to officially put in the game.
Easton Ortiz
he's a mastermind
Jonathan Butler
It has NOT been a year since F76.
... has it?
Carter Reed
Because Bethesda's marketing team is retarded as hell? Like not going to lie, I love the policies set by bethesda for their team in terms of pay and bonuses (There is a reason why their team has the highest keep rate between all workers IN THE WHOLE FIELD), but my fucking god their marketing team is retarded.
Like I wish I worked there >Monthly game Jams, that I can earn pay if my game/idea for one of our own games is good enough >A heavy paycheck >Payed trips to events >Get's to not be a drone because the team number is small so everyone is important >Can develop mods for more pay
Your right, but that brings up the question, how many people actually made content and got accepted for it?
It has not, it's been three months
Still fuck their marketing team, and for the hell of it Fuck Emil
Ryder Ramirez
>Because Bethesda's marketing team is retarded as hell? Fair enough. I wonder what things would be like without old Petey and his marketing monkeys.
Kevin Foster
GoG is the only place worth leaving your money faggot
Adrian Rodriguez
No, it released just this past fall but I don't remember the date. October maybe? By the time it releases on steam it could be much closer to a year though.
Easton Murphy
It kinda is. You buy their currency to buy what amounts to mods. The difference seems to be that most of that content is apparently made internally. The issue they had when they tried it with steam was that every single mod could be made to be paid. Now it's only a selected few. It doesn't help that they price these items very carefully, making it so you are always just a bit off. Like only being able to buy 100 tokens for 10 bucks but two items are 60 tokens, meaning you'd have to buy the 200 tokens pack. That sort of shit. >how many people actually made content and got accepted for it? I'm too tired to do a deep search but I'm sure they've gotten a decent amount. It's not like there aren't incredibly talented modelers out there. That being said, I do respect that there's a focus for Bethesda's own team doing that for extra cash. That's actually pretty commendable.
Oliver Davis
I was just going to get DOOM Eternal for my Xbox. I guess I'll need to build a new rig now.
Lincoln Ramirez
>Like only being able to buy 100 tokens for 10 bucks but two items are 60 tokens each Didn't make that clear, sorry. And I forgot to add >Still fuck their marketing team, and for the hell of it Fuck Emil 100% agree. Pete causes more PR issues than he solves and Emil has become one of the worst writers in gaming, which is saying a lot considering David Cage is still alive.
>fps >controller why would you consider doing that?

Noah Harris
doom '16 is great with a controller
Luke Flores
Can't we all just appreciate the hilarious fact that Fallout 76 essentially saved all these games from being launchershit?
I honestly think that's the only reason why people seem to give a pass for Bethesda. Todd genuinely seems like a cool boss, someone you can stop and have a conversation about games, but either he's incompetent in leading his team or he's complacent and lets his team have too much freedom, leading to broken messes with terrible stories.
>You think Valve gave them some deal? I think it's because the Bethesda launcher sucks so much it's a wonder it doesn't cause a real black hole to open up in Maryland.
Juan Hughes
>Playing a fast paced FPS with a controller I honestly don't get it. I'm pretty sure even id doesn't understand you considering their Doom Eternal preview where they showed a slower gameplay with a controller and then showed the fast paced action with kb/m.
I think Epic realized that the PC gaming community is full of mouthbreathers who get upset when they see a game is "exclusive" to a free exe on their computers, so they're throwing everyone a bone with Bethesda's games.
Anthony King
>Todd thinks it would be easy to make a launcher with his buddies >Bethesda's launcher is a badly coded dumpster fire i guess they were hoping modders would fix it, like they do everything else bethesda makes
They're still launchershit lmao. You just buy them on Steam.
Kayden Morris
>Doom 2016 sold a pissload more on consoles i'd assume I think most games sell better on console. For a lot of people they don't even consider PC since it's not the dedicated gaming box.

Evan Wright
Todd you sly fox
Connor Campbell
Unless they were planning on reusing it, I don't see the problem. I'm surprised they even bothered with it instead of just having you click on the train asset and instantly going to a loading screen for the next area.
Carson Turner
Really? You don't see how they could reuse a fucking rail system in a game that takes place in the states? You could hijack supply lines between settlements, rail raiders, a new travel system there's so many options
Brandon Cox
This is Bethesda we're talking about. Nothing they do is on a grand scale.
Liam Parker
There's tons of subways in each fallout game and actual rail Depots. Could EASILY make a faction like the rail Boyz who want you to repair tracks and re-open rail yards. Once you complete it you can have them transporting goods around the map for you to your settlements
Logan Butler
Oh wow, it's almost like they realised that paying someone for public relations isn't actually a bad thing. Bethesdas reputation is a train wreak and this is probably only way they can figure to appease the monster that is consumer.
Charles Perez
I'm not going to pretend to understand why they chose to use an NPC instead of just the train model following a simple path. I honestly don't know why that is. But think of it this way. Nothing really stops them from doing that with trainhead either.
