A new entry in the recurring Life, The Universe And Gaming column series on EGMR, this time about Assassin's Creed's open worlds and how they've evolved into something different in recent years, as well as what the series can learn from the recently-released Fallout 4.
The Nerd Stash: "The Wasteland is unforgiving, and there are a ton of brutal ways to die in the Fallout universe. We listed out the absolutely worst ones."
We were expecting problems with mod support, but there are a lot of other issues.
This is why you get the GOG version on gog you can select the version of the game to download.
On pc fallout 4 fallout new vegas and skyrim are all broken on steam because they all got the same "next gen" update.
Skyrim dec 2023

Can not find new vegas but anyone that modded it knows the script extender there was also broken
Not accidental, they want modders to stop modding their older games to force them to mod Shitfield.
There doing the same on starfield with a mods store and blocking mods
There goal is like blizzard and what they did with fallout 76 you make mods they can sell and you become a slave.
On skyrim they have "trusted" mod devs now basically a badge that lets your mod on the store you get a crumb of the sale when someone buys it.
lol to the disagrees, the last Skyrim update broke mods too. They've been trying to kill mods to monetize them in creation club for years, it's not a stretch that they purposely put out patches just to break free mods.
The disagrees are from people who have common sense. They aren't trying to kill mods. Most mods for any game will break with a new update because they rely on files/code that have been changed. This isn't new. Even with Bethesda this would happen way before the creation club. Mod support is literally one of the things that got Bethesda to where they are, and they're one of the only devs that releases comprehensive mod tools for each of their games.
Over 14 GBs and doesn't change much at all? What? Taking up that much drive space for a pathetic 'remastering' is shameful.
Par for Bethesda.
LOL people are actually expecting massive improvements or something? From Bethesda?? the same people who released Skyrim multiple times and the all look like shit? THAT Bethesda? are people for real?
The ps5 version doesn't change a ton but from my small playtime it's enough to make me want to replay it just to have it running at 60.
A side note to this my PS4 version no longer boots after it's "update" so I guess that's what it feels like to own a Bethesda game on PC
Bethesda Customer Support Manager confirmed they're looking into Fallout 4 not being offered to those who redeemed via PlayStation Plus for free.
Why would anyone downvote this? Don't be silly. This is great news. Thanks for sharing, darthv72.
I think it's because the main question for many was whether or not the PlayStation Plus Collection version would support the upgrade. To me it seems obvious the PlayStation Plus Extra version would, though it is nice to see confirmation it will.
That said, Bethesda highlighting the PlayStation Plus Extra version low-key confirms they do not plan on upgrading the other version given to players. Naturally some people are pissed, as even the in-game phrasing says "free for all players."
It’s just a lame solution to the problem, even if it is a solution. The comment shouldn’t be downvoted though.
I mean, it's at least something. It's 'good' news compared to the alternative. Not darth's fault even.
Also, I highly believe this will get fixed. PR nightmare if they don't since the PS store doesn't differentiate/have different text for those with or without the PS+/PS Collection version.

Is this your first time here?! And when you question the downvotes you get downvoted - I don't make the rules but that's the rules!
Even though I claimed the PS Plus version, I still have my physical GOTY PS4 edition and was able to get my PS5 upgrade a little earlier today. Physical media FTW lol. Hopefully it won't be too long before the PS Plus owners also get to upgrade their copies.
My point is that even though I claimed the digital version via my PS+ Essential sub, I was still able to upgrade to the PS5 version using my PS4 GOTY physical version that I bought years ago. Otherwise I would have had to wait for the fix to be released, however long that will take. Isn’t that what the article was about?
No, you claimed an upgrade that everyone with the physical or digital license can other then ps+ extra .
And what you hold is nothing more then a physical license.
And the article is talking about people with ps+extra who didn't own the game previously to it going on ps+ .
I bought the game years ago to ... digitally, my whole point was to your statement " physical media Ftw" . So what does physical have to do with anything?
I expect this and also no releasing on next ps console. Pretty simple. Please don't be suprise
It doesnt need to learn anything, it had good reviews and its a complete different game all together.
I absolutely hate these Bethesda threads about "making my own story".
Bethesda games are extremely repetitive in nature. What kind of story are you "creating" by doing redundant side quests?
How interesting is it to pick flowers or raid a cave that looks 90% identical to other caves? Joining a guild in TES has you doing fetch and retrieve, errand and escort questing, which is no different than if a random shop keeper told you to do it.
The worlds themselves are barren of traders and workers doing everyday activities. There is no economy system that is persistently changed based on your actions.
If you kill every farmer in TES, does the world suddenly go hungry? Does a famine occur and new quests to replenish the world happen? No, it doesn't.
This idea that Bethesda somehow builds these "explorable worlds" is nonsense. It's padded, repetitive content that gets a pass because of quantity, not quality. Almost every other game in this entire industry gets trashed for having redundant side quests, but not Bethesda. It's ridiculous to read about these "create my own story" articles.
I don't think I've ever heard of Fallout 4 and Assassin's Creed: Syndicate in the same sentece before.
