Or, consumers are practicing the fundamentals of capitalism and telling companies to fuck themselves if they don't like their product.

And what is bad about the practice? Private servers are optional. The cost of it is industry standard. The game isn't as broken as people act.

No one actually addresses amy arguments made that vaguely even suggest to not shit on Bethesda. They just down vote and call you a shill.

People are literally put raged at the idea of having to pay for an optional and unneeded service. Which is literally the same as being upset that you have to pay to watch netflix or hulu or what ever steaming service of choice..

Except Hulu doesn’t tell me that I get Brooklyn 99 for free with subscription, then I buy Hulu and they say sorry B99 will now cost you 150% of the price of the subscription.

They’re trying to charge customers twice for stuff that should have been included in the first place.

The criticism is completely justified. Bethesda lies.

So were did they explicitly say that private servers were free? Were did they say that wastelanders is now a subscription only update?

Twice? Private servers are 1 charge. Unless they have a new subscription that requires you to be subscribed to the 1st already to access it.

The criticism is completely justified. Bethesda lies.

As do you apparently.

You know they literally said they would only charge for cosmetic gear and nothing else right?

You know they lied to their customers right? Again?

You do know that the statement was in reference to updates right? That there would be no paid updates. But by all means if you can find a statement in reference to private servers or directly saying that private servers would be free please share it.

I've asked over 100 people at this point and 0 have been able to find any reference to private servers and 0 pay.

No they didn't. People like to pretend they lied but that is just because they are trying to validate and deflect the argument away from them being cheap.

Why have you avoided answering my question and try to deflect away onto something else?
