The game has just launched and the mod had been released and cracked already. This isn’t about making bread, it’s clearly a trivial hack for him to do, not something that requires full time job maintenence.
People spend hundreds of hours modding free of charge, what he does is a joke in comparison if we are talking about lost time that could have been spent earning money. The groundwork was made by Bethesda, AMD and Nvidia.
Sounds pretty wild to call it unethical to buy the game because of WoC (which isn’t even the one responsible for the game). I doubt their worst act even comes close to a normal Tuesday for a lot of companies you likely buy from, directly or indirectly.
You can look up Larian if you want, but they are far from a big game publisher the way EA or Rockstar is. And they are going against the trend of mtx or DRM. Pirate if you want, but using morals as an excuse for not wanting to spend money doesn’t really fly in this instance.
Their statement said nothing about giving a complete experience from day one. You cut out the central part of the whole statement which is “without the need for additional purchases”.
The whole point of the public statement is about not requiring users to spend additional money to get the whole game. It got nothing to do with early access.
I did that when Barcelona didn’t have a sponsor a few seasons ago. It looks so much cleaner without a big logo at the front.
