    The only surprise is it lasted so long. I assume MS don't want the hassle of supporting it.

    Re: Bethesda launcher Sunsetting

    Ah, that's nice.

    Only game I ever tried there was ESO and it was a pain. Think Steam would update it and Bethesda's Launcher would update again.

    Think it was a far smaller update but took as long as the Steam one.

    I don't really like that Steam as so huge but all the other launchers aside from GOG are a pain.

    Re: Bethesda launcher Sunsetting

    Well, the bad news for me is I neither have nor want a Steam account.

    The good news is I don't have the Bethesda launcher either.

    I'll get my coat.

    I am lucky that I've never get to use it myself. All of the good games that Bethesda has published were always available on Steam, whilst all the bad games I only heard the name of.
