Every decision they made with PSVR2 was bad - price, no PC compatibility, no back compatibility, really no new software since launch and only a couple exclusives. The worst has to be alienating that niche audience by not letting them play their PSVR1 games on the new hardware. Those people were the primary market.

I’m a HUGE VR fanboy, I use my Quest 2 near-daily, but man, the PSVR2 just doesn’t have sufficient software to make me want to buy one. Horizon and the Until Dawn Rush of Blood follow-up both interest me but not $800 CAD interest me.

Step 1: Release VR headset at an exorbitant asking price.

No surprise. So many issues with this product. The price, lack of software, and no backwards compatibility being the biggest issues. 

I suspect this will change sooner than later. MS bought Bethesda primarily for Fallout and Elder Scrolls. I suspect it will want new entries in each series more than once every 10+ years. Also, with both Obsidian and inXile under MS’ wing, there’s more than enough talent to work on multiple entries simultaneously.

Yeah I would imagine it’s mostly just “don’t be in Region X of the USA because that’s probably where we will be” and “You can’t completely destroy any existing major faction in case we want to use or reference them”

When they’ve barely even started ES6, it’s hard to imagine they have more than the vaguest notions of what’ll be in Fallout 5

Usually I’m against developers spreading themselves too thin, but it does seem very odd to me that BGS has two huge licenses under their belt, have added a new one (Starfield, though it is a much smaller license and wasn’t nearly as well received as TES and Fallout typically are), and yet they seem to mostly be…

Due to his accurate knowledge of Fallout 5, Jonathan was then promptly blacklisted by Todd Howard.

Honestly I find it hilarious that the kind of goober that says “git gud” is being told by a dev to git gud.

Have you met gamers? They get treated how poorly as they do because they ACT as poorly as they do. If a customer base shits on you as much as gamers do, then you have every right to call out their bullshit.

Gamers who take shit this seriously are entitled whiny pricks that deserve to be trolled off the internet. What the devs said is mild at worst and anyone who took actual offense to it should do everyone a favor and shut the fuck up forever. Highly embarrassing shit.

I’m perusing the comments here and primary take-away (as a non-player) is that the game got harder, and people playing at higher difficulties are mad at the idea of playing at lower difficulties because pride.

I feel like with this and Larian Studios receiving toxicity, it’s almost as if this doesn’t really happen because of “bad games,” but because gamers are entitled Karens who don’t recognize the human cost of the games they played.

As far as I’m concerned, all developer interactions with gamers should just be a double mid…

The entitlement of consumers, in all fields, is galling.

That’s not to say you shouldn’t speak up when wronged, but have a little respect for the other person in the conversation. Be as professional as you expect them to be dammit.

The customer isn’t always right, etc.

Like, I get it, professionalism for its own sake has value and you don’t want to turn away customers. But I feel like the capital “G” gamers harassing the devs aren’t really owed niceties and decorum like that, and it’s just that general air of entitled consumerism that makes us…

100% agree. The way Gamers give, uh, “feedback” can read a little hostile sometimes and I can see how a human dev on the receiving end of it might react in a human way. Not to say it’s okay, but I’m inclined to forgive a one-time incident. The community reaction to that patch has been completely insane and out of…

LMAO. I almost have 100 hours. The patch is the first of many tweaks to get the game where they want. The true issue, which was even an issue before this is the spawning at higher difficulties. But sure you know better than the devs so go ahead and keep whining. If people don’t want any messing with the meta than…

Devs didnt lie or say anything wrong.

The dev totally didn’t say it the right way but he has a point. The fucking whiners about a balance patch in this game are insufferable. Its been out for like two weeks. Its not like they took away some weapon after two years. Of course they are gonna have to fix some shit once the players get their hands on it.
