Right now we still have no word on what Namco Bandai plans to do or what they'll do regarding one of the top selling games during the Steam winter sale. Right now the biggest game that everyone wants off of GFWL is Dark Souls. Capcom has been coy about their plans for removing the GFWL check-in, and many feel they'll lose access to these games by the time July 1st rolls around, which is the closing date for Microsoft's service. Still, we're now into 2014 and the countdown timer persists for many other games still utilizing Microsoft's DRM service. They've also stated that the older Fallout titles will return to distribution portals after they were removed due to a change of hand in licensing so they're definitely making all the right moves right now.
Nevertheless, the fact that Bethesda has taken an ever-so-slight extra step to ensure that the game will function without Games For Windows Live is a reassuring and complimentary measure to show that they do care about the gaming community. One of the reasons some people were also somewhat lackadaisical about the news is because many of the mods for Fallout 3 disabled the GFWL check-in, so it wasn't quite as egregious as some other software titles out there that used Microsoft's DRM service.
