Ah. I use reader mode and it didn’t load the comments. Thanks
Honestly, I didn’t see that whole controversy when it happened and I just looked it up. The final, actually canvas, bag they ended up sending…still seems like a huge ripoff. But that’s just me and I’ve never really seen anything but the monster factory episodes of fallout.
I think the worst part is they gave streamers and influencers the actual promised canvas bag. That shows someone made this shitty decision and knew it was shitty.
I have one of those 76 “canvas” (vinyl) bags sitting around somewhere. Anytime somebody I know gets excited about a new Bethesda game, I just send them a picture of it and tell them that I’ve got a great bag to sell them.
It feels a lot like one of those bags you get at a con for free, or a jacket that you’d get off of a cheap Chinese website like Alibaba or Temu. That cheap woven plastic type of material.
I wasn’t surprised that they cheaped out on the bag, most collector’s edition stuff isn’t what I’d call “high quality” and a canvas bag on its own would be pretty pricey for collector’s edition stuff (and that game came with like a full-size helmet and stuff too), but I was really surprised at just how cheap they went. There’s replacing the item with a cheaper alternative, and then there’s lowest bidder from the sweatshops cheap.
Literally. It’s like owning a piece of video game history like one of the cartridges of ET for the Atari - a shitty piece of video game history about the greed of companies.
That’s like Bethesda fallout backpack levels of quality
It does literally compare it to that whole debacle in the article
It does? I didn’t see that anywhere

Yeah the whole thing was a sham. So glad I usually buy games after 1 year and on sale.

Can I see the Pic of the bag?

Didn’t a lot of them show up moldy, too?
That’s even worse than I was expecting
