U Bethesda SoftWorks It has its own platform for launching games – Bethesda.Net. Do not be surprised that the company decided to trumped its coming great premiere and make it exclusive from it for a native platform.

On the site Fallout Published a list of questions and answers about beta versions Fallout 76. Among other things there is a line there: "B.E.T.A. And the final version of the game will be released on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC (only via Bethesda.Net) ". Sensing something was wrong, PC Gamer requested a comment from a representative Bethesda And received confirmation: “PC version Fallout 76 (Like b.E.T.A., so a release option) will be available only through Bethesda.Net, not through Steam ".

Bethesda And earlier it promoted her platform with various methods. For example, Quake Champions In Bethesda.NET is free, and Steam is forced to buy one of the advanced publications. Fallout Shelter for PC appeared in Bethesda.NET in July 2016, and I reached Steam only in March 2017.

However, with large releases Bethesda I acted differently. Let’s say, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus And The Evil Within 2 We went to Steam, as usual, and if you buy in the Bethesda store.Net Doom or Prey, then you will be given the keys to the platform Valve. So Fallout 76 At the moment, it can be considered a non -standard move from the publisher.

PC Gamer notes that perhaps exclusivity Fallout 76 It will only be temporary, and after a while the game will still visit Steam. But there is no serious evidence for this yet.

Fallout 76 It turns out on November 14th. Beta testing should pass during October. Moreover, as the official website of the game writes, all content will be available in the preliminary assembly, and the accumulated progress will remain and move into a reliable version.

Taac! We need to a list from Steam, Gog, Origins, Battle.NET add Bethesda also.Net. Norms so!

More than more trading platforms are needed!

Of these, only 2 competitive. The rest or bondage of the publisher or his attempts to break through their prices and receive a hyperprindic in the market. So. fur.

The person who will make the launcher for launches will be ozol. You go to the launcher and there are just games broken into different groups (Steam, EA, Yube, Gazebo, T -shirts), pumpki for any and you start the game

“Hello, we are Bethesda, we do not want to pay Gaben to 30% of each sale of our games, and therefore we are ready to lose more than 30% of the profit for those to whom our launcher did not fall and they will not buy our game because convenience is more important for them”
Well done Bethesda, keep it up ..

Why not try? I thought that I would not play, but my friends have stumbled the desire to try. And with friends, anything can be turned into fumes

We will be honest how the game can be more than playable. It is not clear how for now, but it may well be. But how is Fallout and how a role -playing game in its past iterations, it will be clearly not right. So this will hurt fans, but if a person is looking for just something like Fallout 4, only online, to shake with friends, this is a completely viable option.

Blizard is not the most right example, because their service grew out of their own Battle.Net (in fact it was some kind of launcher), which already exists as many. Steam also grew up not just as the trading platform, it became subsequently, and initially it was the launcher of several games. Now publishers are trying to make not just launches, but their own stores. This is “profitable” to the publisher (see my example about Bethesdastop), but for an ordinary user this is just a new hemorrhage. At the same time, you need to understand that interested ones can really and buy the game, but in order to keep these users on their site, Bethesda will have to offer the service comparable in quality (as Blizzard does, but I repeat it since the 90s), or even higher. Otherwise, the audience will simply put a bolt on the service and games in it, finding another way. Well, the quality, accordingly, will not appear simply from the fact that Bethesda did not want to pay the same 30% Gaben. In the end, these 30% will spend on maintaining the normal operation of their service. So it can be with a successful combination of the circumstances of Fallout76 and will collect the cashier even taking into account the fact that it will not be in Steam. But Rage 2, Wolfenstein Yuongblood and Doom Eternal will most likely not be taken out by sales if the Steam Wolfenstein 2 and The Evil Whin 2 apparently not taken out ..

Well, the whole game finally failed.
They had little disgusting F4 in many ways, so they decided not to let the next spit of the series not be released on a normal platform, but in their tanned garbage. Good luck. Since you were not taught by the experience of previous such moves, then let them not cry about bad sales.

The deck managed only thanks to the excellent platform of the broom, they did not have to spin their site, they simply took and sketched their garbage into the sandbox of the near -zars.

And they will not. Because it will be as always – the people first aching on the Internet, and then still goes and buys.

In general, Bethesda can be understood. Valve takes 30% revenue with each copy sold. If you take into account the sales of this series, then this very significant amount will come out.

Dubious choice. The game is an experiment and many already do not like it in absentia, and now also such news. The company can be arbitrarily good and known, but such a decision will stupidly hit the sales and the soaked reputation of Folych.
My voice is Karlya at sea, but the company and I precisely refused to buy because of this, in general, it also happened with Destini 2.

And what kind of questions arise? Where is the store? Where is the library of games? How to start a chat? Even find settings on Steam – a couple of seconds. Of course, I understand that in our world there are people who have been banned in Google, but how can you not understand Steam? By the way, the same Uplay is trying to imitate Steam in everything and partly succeeds in. The only trouble is that in the same store the search works crookedly, and the lists of friends in Uplay are still a riddle, and Uplay itself works so so. I’m generally silent about Origin, only the browser version of Live is worse, which, as it turned out, even PSN will give 10 glasses of the handicap on the very curious ..
