I remember when EA did something similar with Dragon Age Origins with an NPC that spawns at your camp. They tell you an engaging story then before you can hit accept quest you are hit with a pay wall. I remember being so pissed off, def added to my current hatred and do not buy attitude I have for EA Games these days. Sad to see Bethesda repeat similar failures.
Haven't played origins but I'm pissed off just reading your comment lol, glad I haven't bought an EA game in like 10 years
Make it 10 more and that's when they launched my favourite or all time, the NFS Underground.
My first impression of Burnout Paradise was similar. I spent an hour or so waiting for it to download an update, only to find the update was an island I couldn't go to unless I paid them more.
It was all downhill after Burnout 3 anyway.
That's so immersive! I hope they add in-game vendors that accept credit cards next.
