Designer Lesson: How to get GOTY and do DLC right

[url=http://bethesda.net/?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=090915-F4SeasonPass#en/events/game/fallout-4-launch-and-beyond/2015/09/08/22][quote]It's during this stage of development that we start thinking about how we'll support Fallout 4 after launch.[/quote] First, lets take a note of this, they waited until late in developement before deciding what will be DLC down the road, no ten year money making scheme here. [quote]We'll be doing regular free updates to the game, and like Skyrim, these will come with not just fixes, but new features. For Skyrim we added things like mounted combat, legendary mode, kill cams, visual enhancements and more. We’ll work with all of you to figure out what new things you’d love to see added to Fallout 4, whether they are small tweaks or new features. [/quote] Damn right boyo [quote]The most important thing in our games is the freedom you have to create your own experience, and modding is a big part of that. Like all our previous games, we’ve made sure to keep Fallout 4 open and moddable at every step in development. Early next year we’ll release for free the new Creation Kit for the PC. This is the same tool we use in the studio. You'll be able to create your own mods and share them with others. We’re especially excited these same mods will then be coming to Xbox One, and then PlayStation 4. [/quote] Mods, to play how we want. [quote] We've always done a lot of DLC for our games. We love making them and you always ask us for more. To reward our most loyal fans, this time we’ll be offering a Season Pass that will get you all of the Fallout 4 DLC we ever do for just $30. Since we’re still hard at work on the game, we don’t know what the actual DLC will be yet, but it will start coming early next year. Based on what we did for Oblivion, Fallout 3, and Skyrim, we know that it will be worth at least $40, and if we do more, you'll get it all with the Season Pass. Thanks again to all of you! The support and excitement you’ve given Fallout 4 has blown us away. It’s energized us even more to do everything we can in these final months to make this our best game yet. We absolutely can't wait for you to play it, and share your adventures with us and each other. [/quote] While they dont know exactly what the DLC will be, because they havent finished the [u][i]fuc­king game[/u][/i], all future DLC will be included in the season pass, yup, that is right, 30$for any DLC that wont be free anyway, not including all the free mods, for the complete future of this game. [/url] Take note bungie, this is how you support a game, by not -blam!- your fan base with CONTENT updates at 20-40$ a pop. And let the fanbois come in and justify the price point of TTK.

  • Actually, that would be how to support the community. Supporting the game would mean bringing in maximum revenue, which I'm sure they are doing just fine at.

  • That's cool, glad Bethesda has a publishing company that will allow them to do this kind of work. While I do love their games, though not the fallout series, they all look and play the same. They just need to keep zenimax away from the ES universe now.

  • Since Zenimax Media, Inc is a privately held company I can't tell how well this business model is working financially. What I do know is that Activision stock is up about 30% this year alone. That to me is a solid investment.
