    I’m sure a mod will figure out surface vehicles but come on Bethesda, you really couldn’t reskin a Skyrim horse to give us a jet-bike or something?

      That exact idea got us a motorcycle in a Legend of Zelda game before we got a single motor vehicle in a Bethesda game.

      Also, there should have been horses in New Vegas, but that was in the post-Oblivion-pre-Skyrim era and it would have been really lame to watch cowboys dismount to shoot you and throw tomahawks

      If they did that, we’d all be here clowning on them for that instead. Bethesda being talked crap on is a gamer pastime all its own.

        Because they halfass everything and pitch as the greatest thing since pong. Then modders fix their shit years later to make a full game worth the price

          its like sports teams I guess, not every studio is all mvp’s no matter what their budget is they are still human. I guess I just relate it to where I work, where we have different groups of engineers, some of them are really good and make some great solid products, while some of the others make decent ones, not because they didnt try they just might not have the same skills or something

            But if you’re not capable of putting out a great product then don’t let your marketing team act like you’re selling sliced bread v2. They ask $70 for this game base price, said it was the dream child of 20+ years work, would blow minds, etc, then we get fallout with spaceships. It was bait and switch man, that’s all there is to it.

            Don’t market Messi if you’re selling Mbappé
