PC Does TFP like to create S-storms?

Do tell. What project are you talking about?
They have only mentioned that they have started it.  They aren't likely to give actual details until gold.  They've specifically stated that it's a separate team and is not taking away from development of this game.

 
Why do we have to always predict doom and gloom before the storm hits the sea shore. Let TFP do their best job. I will be one of the first to criticize when the things finally go south. I will gladly take my place in the queue!

Well, pre-sales is a thing so I guess pre-@%$#ing is a consequence of that?

It was just a matter of time.

I wouldn`t have a problem with pre-orders. But this is the incentive for the companies to milk early profits and dump the game later except for micro-transactions.

What I hate the most are super duper collectors editions for 120+ bucks. Teaser, trailers that have nothing to do with the actual in-game footage and gameplay. Reassurances to the community that they will get some treatment this time. Life service but without any clear roadmap or upcoming content. 

And on the release day stuttery 60 frames on high-end PCs, constant crashes, constant de-syncs, broken game that needs updates for the next 6 months after release day to even stay on the server with friends together. Maps and balancing that completely turn upside down the gameplay. No previous in-game features, like such things never existed for the past decades. Everything that Community worked on for years gets trashed into a bin, like nobody needs it. The community gets called out by the Publishers to be detached from reality.

But the in-game store with DLCs always f@k&n" works! It`s magic!

So obviously nobody likes to pay for better statistics while the game is nowhere near to be properly put together not to mention to be fixed!

 
Seeing this thread so active makes me confident the community likes to stir up S-storms a lot more than The Pimps do.

We barely know anything about the DLC, it's too early to decide if it's overpriced, under quality, the thing that ruins the game utterly, or the beginning of the angrygamer uprising.

I think TFP have been pretty good so far, though. The wait for bandits sucks, I want the event system now, little crap like that. I feel the balance and pacing of the game is improving, I love the speed of RNG, the feel of the towns and cities now.  It's not zombie apocalypse nirvana or anything, yet, but what I see assures me the devs are putting in the work to make this game excellent. 

So with that said, I trust the DLC will be fine. -But the best part is, even if it isn't, it's going to be non-essential, so anyone that feels like it's a waste of money can just ignore it all together.

Are you talking about Bethesda again lol

Far worse! Naaah no Bethesda this time. I don`t play anything from Bethesda. I don`t want to point fingers and promote them. But I will give You the tip, Early Access, and the worst rated company in online polls in the US!

It`s non-essential for non-PvP players. This is only relevant for me in terms of supporting TFP.

Which to be fair is most players.  Not sure if anyone has valid stats on the number of PVP players for this game versus regular players, but it can't be a very high percent.  The game really isn't designed for PVP and there are far better PVP games out there.  But even with PVP, if they introduce an armor bonus that is powerful in a DLC, a PVP server could easily mod an existing armor to offer the same bonuses and it won't matter if some players buy the DLC and some do not.  In most cases, a PVP server can mod whatever is being sold as DLC into the game with little effort, at least in terms of effects, which is what matters, even if not in terms of looks, which doesn't matter.

 
I wouldn't mind paid DLCs as long as the outfits have unique buffs or traits. However, I would avoid them like the plague if they are reskinned or cringe-inducing. Battlefield V introduced bad skins that caused me to stop playing because they were genuinely distracting and out of place.

I would like skins with broken stats rather than cringe ones. True story. I stayed on BF4 with my own TDM server. BF1 is pretty cool. BFV and 2042 - too much @%$#z.

Exactly, Battlefield 1 is fantastic. BF V and BF 2042 are 🤢

Both Skyrim and Starfield fit your description.
Skyrim is more or less fine... I played a lot 10-12 years ago. I liked the game, mods are insane and insanely good. I looked at Starfields gameply and the video seemed underwhelming at first glance. Where and when is the next Elder Scrolls btw??? I have some time finally to write on TFPs website xD. I am currently playing DOOM + II refresh, an excellent update from Bethesda, native 1080p resolution and refresh monitor rates, plus additional content created over the decades! Highly recommend! I would paint Bethesda in more positive rather than negative colours, but it is my experience for the past 2 decades.

After 5 or 6 patches. I bought it at release and remember how they broke one mechanic after another.

I played it for about 100 hours. At first I liked it, but the more I played it, the more I realized that this was not an RPG. The quests are not interconnected, relations with factions are somehow schizophrenic. The faction leader praises you as a hero, but her deputy is diligently trying to kill you.
It's good that Bethesda refused to take money for it.

Modern gaming.

Personally, I waited for awhile for the mod scene  to take off before I bought Skyrim.  Now that was a game where they compromised PC for consoles.  I think the mods that pushed me to buy the game where ones that improved on the PC performance / graphics to take advantage of the PC computing power.

Skyrim is my 2nd most played game in Steam (this game takes the top prize easily).

I don't really like modifications. I usually play without them. There are only 2 small mods for Skyrim. One adds a forge to a house in Soltude. The second slightly changes the quest to kill Paarthurnax and allows you to dissuade Delphine from killing.

I've played a lot of Skyrim, but I think Morrowind is the best game in the series.

I haven't used 7d2d mods at all. Although I will most likely write a small one to increase the loot time.
