          Don’t say that, the Hudson Bay Company died a few years ago. It’s worth a read in Wikipedia; they were so powerful hundreds of years ago that they were treated like a country.

          IBM is defunct for consumer tech.

          Radio Shack is dead.

          Many other examples haha.

      Bethesda released it for free before they shut down their proprietary game launcher a few years ago, so a totally legitimate copy is already on the web archive :-)

      If you own the game, just get a torrent or something.
