Two Weeks Early Access For PC/Nothing For Console?

Its annoying that PC is going to gain access to Morrowind before Console players. But more than two weeks of early access....I guess console players are just going to have to avoid Streamers, Forums and Reddit until the game drops right? Because likely quite a bit of spoiler content will find its way on to these platforms more than there already is even with the NDA.

    I'm O K with PC getting early access, I'm upset by the messaging and communication from January to current.

    I'm not suggesting anyone shouldn't be upset about early access, but my point of view is how it was marketed and then how decisions are made which close to release dates, often changes which usually segments players by platform.

    Literally every content update release has things omitted by platform so while PC is getting earlier access by calendar date, that's fine as it's been that way, what's wrong here is that console pre-orders aren't getting two weeks access prior to whatever console release date they chosen.

    It's more of a disconnect and lack of planning and for thought, however due to how frequent it occurs, it's becoming more abrasive to the communities in effects

    My problem isnt with the early access in itself. Its that it was marketed to a very small portion of the playerbase (digital copys) and its not a few days or even a week. But instead over 2 weeks of time. Console players regardless of whether theyre getting a digital or physical copy now have to plug their ears, shut their eyes and yell lalalalalala until June 6th.

    Plenty of players on Console have owned Morrowind for PC. So theres a lot of nostalgia wrapped up in it for even us. It was my first ES game. Its what dragged me in and made me a life long fan of the franchise. Going back there is something that tugs at me every time I think of this update.

    Maybe its because I feel left out. Maybe its because in the face of all the changes that I strongly disagree with from the class changes to the fact the Warden is not a base game update. Ive still looked forward to Morrowind. Or maybe Im just tired, as a member of this community....as a long time player and someone that for the most part doesnt get riled up over update to update changes regardless of how negatively they impact me. Maybe Im just fed up with this company and its ***. This update was supposed to be a nostalgic trip of epicness. And at every turn this company has pissed on us and called it rain.

    Korah yep you're touching on other things too.

    Since we moved over I often feel like they are hoping to push players back to PC.

    But doing so with a lot of overhead that requires the players to spend even more. But to be fair I think it's actually a lack of planning and command decision making vs collaborative decision making.

    Every thing they announce regardless of platform results in a lot of misccumunication and mistandings. Imagine how June will be in terms of the forums.

    And don't let Xbox live or PSN have issues so that the patch can't go in.....SMH but their actions continue to show a lack of care and forthought.
