Team Fortress 2 is riddled with a variety of overpriced cosmetic hats, and almost every online game has this sort of thing by default. These days this sort of thing is pretty damn common. At the time Bethesda where still considered a decent game company, and it can be argued that they basically started the trend of charging for cosmetic in games. Well you have to remember that at this time nothing like this had ever existed, at least nothing quite this bad. Modern gaming is riddled with micro-transactions, so it’s hard to see why this would be considered so bad. On April 3 rd 2006 Bethesda released the Horse Armor DLC for $2.50, a price that many people agreed was ridiculous for an entirely useless item. Back in the days of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion some one at Bethesda clearly had an aneurysm and decided that the idea of selling virtual horse armour was a good plan. They’ve just kept it bubbling below the surface until now. Well if you’re one of those people who feel like Bethesda were one of the last few good gaming companies out there and they’ve just thrown it all a way we have news for you. Partially due to it feeling like Bethesda just stopped giving a crap. Partially due to it being another buggy, Bethesda mess but without the charm. For those who aren’t aware Fallout 76 came out to wide-spread disapproval. If you’ve been keeping an eye on the industry news lately you’re probably aware of the absolute raging dumpster fire that is Fallout 76.
