Seems like a really strong correction from the Super Princess Peach game that came out forever ago. That's dope

It’s completely baffling. Never could have seen it coming. Wow. Wild. Incredible.

Sarcasm aside, SE has been pretty blind to what fans of their games actually want for a very long time for the most part.

Wait, so are you telling me that when you change a mainline game of a storied franchise from the genre it helped build into a pretty but otherwise mediocre action game, fans who didn’t preorder aren’t interested?

“Starfield has saminess problems because it uses procedural generation” is kind of a weird take, why are we not saying “Starfield’s procedural generation is not very good.”

I lost enough of my life to Dwarf Fortress and Minecraft and heck, sometimes even NMS to know that saminess in content is down to having poor…

Bethesda may only compare their games to their own older games.

Well, they are pushing the boundaries of their selected technology thats for sure.

I’m loving the game, but a “next gen” game where they’ve “pushed the technology” this very much isn’t. It’s missing lots of graphical features that are fairly standard with most next gen games now.

Yeah. The dust. That’s the problem with a game engine that’s older than most of the commenters here.

Oh Bethesda. Trying to make it sound like they’re pushing all the boundaries of technology while simultaneously using basically the same engine they have for the last 20 plus years. 

Not a single Bethesda game has launched in a way that doesn’t chug on PC.

The answer to your question, once key creatives (especially in highly influential and leadership based roles) eventually move on to other studios or leave the industry completely. Rockstar is a good barometer for this. They've made a very particular type of game similarly for 20+ years, all of which was spearheaded by…

I like your take on this and I’m someone that loves Bethesda games.

Knew this was going to show up for hot damn this was the first comment!

And he did it all in spite of his deadbeat bastard of a father.

I kind of thought we might be getting an announcement of the Switch 2 in place of the traditional September direct, but that was before they announced 3 new special edition switches and 1 new bundle in the space of a week. Feels like a big push for the last holiday of the switch’s lifetime, to get as much out of the…

If most viewers are anything like me (a sickening premise, obviously), they’re just bored of TWD. It’s been 13 years. The pilot was excellent, the first season was good, second through maybe fifth seasons were decent. As I recall it’s been downhill since. The whole show became a soap opera at best, and a gloomy…

Volition are great and deserve better than this, a few mid releases shouldn’t result in closure for a studio like this.

There’s a major difference between a major gaming publisher and platform acquiring a developer and publisher, and what amounts to a VC fund buying them up.

Don’t worry guys, media consolidation is actually a really great thing overall and is beneficial for consumers and creators. We swear! Please be excited about Microsoft consuming Activision, too! It’s for your our own good! I mean, your own good! Believe us!
