This update will feature Nvidia DLSS support with frame generation, display and HDR controls for supported systems, and other optimizations and improvements. You’ll be able to opt-in to try it via the Steam Beta options. We’d love your feedback before it goes live for all PC and Xbox players after that.

Stay tuned for the specifics soon, and thanks for playing!

    Modders don’t have to run functionality and regression testing, fully localise any new text, pass platform certification, or any of the other hundreds of things that prevent AAA devs from dropping patches whenever they feel like it.

    Not saying they couldn’t have had this stuff ready sooner, but comparing it to how quickly modders can release is apples to oranges.

      I mean yeah, but then we do see other devs push updates daily (Lords of The Fallen for e.g.). I would love to give Bethesda a free pass, but they haven’t earned it IMO. Even now it’s going to be on Beta channel, only to be tested by gamers before it is pushed to release channel.

        Just because you are paid does not mean you turn into a wizard. This likely is a corporate issue, not a device issue.

          I mean, on one hand yes this is likely a corporate issue. On the other, how exactly is that an excuse?

          When you see dumpster fire after dumpster fire regarding threads talking MASSIVE shit about the product you put out, is it not time to allow your devs freedom to edit the product to serve complaining customers? You’ve made the money already, from the corporate perspective, so what’s the problem?

          Unless you’re saying they’re working on another game, and can’t dedicate the time. Which my only response to that is if that’s the case, I’m glad I’ve sworn off Bethesda games.

          Do you think corporate isnt paid?

          TIL modders are wizards, with skills and management unreasonable to expect from lowly AAA titans.
