This is the attitude that forced Blizzard to rework everything about themselves, caused FFXIV to launch in a disastrous state, and made Concord
Yeah this new stock of devs just don’t have it in them to deliver anything great. Their values and language likely prevent them from even considering something more visceral. Wouldn’t be surprised if most of them have lived such uninteresting lives they have nothing to draw from. That’s at least what they write like.
Seems they don’t know why their hero kills, they don’t believe in the culling the player enacts. They’d probably rather he didn’t.
They seem like they’d prefer to make Animal Crossing in space, they don’t really want to write about empire, conquest, terrible crimes, deep-seated hate. Ending threats.
They don’t even want to know how the tools of the trade work. Just look at the animations for the models, you can tell that whoever worked on then feared being put on an FBI watchlist if they looked up a video on how pump action shotguns work.
These kinds of dev teams are fully incapable of writing good villains and a cast of characters with wildly different moralities that are grounded in something real.
They’re not interested in combat games. They shouldn’t touch them. They should leave and make room for those who want to.
What are you on about? Almost every top person working on Starfield has been there since the days of Oblivion/Fallout 3. Bethesda in general is known for high retention, there’s a lot of the old guard there.
If anything you should be complaining that there’s not enough new blood in Bethesda.
Considering his credits for “creation” include Fallout 76 and Starfield, Starfield is the best he’s had a hand in creating.
Anyway, apparently Bethesda hasn’t been too dissuaded by the lukewarm reception its space sim got. Pagliarulo says it’s now joined Fallout and Elder Scrolls on the podium as one of Bethesda’s "big three”.
What a bunch of fucking clowns. Smoked too much copium it looks like.

Pouring one out for Fallout and another for Elder Scrolls.
Saying it is in the top three IPs for a company that only has three IPs is technically correct.
Honestly, even with only three IPs i think starfield struggles to even break into the top 5
Wanting something to be true doesn’t make it so. I played, and I even enjoyed big parts of it (after heavily modding, to be fair). I think it got more hate than it deserved, but in no reality can it be considered a really good game, let alone their best.
I really enjoyed the story missions, but the procedurally generated stuff got old fast. Im going to give a few years when all the DLCs are out and someone gives is the Wildlander treatment.
What they needed was a lot less empty planets and a lot more that looked populated (not occupied by a small outpost; populated, by a civilization).
The beauty of Skyrim (and I guess fallout, though I hated the guns so much I struggled to ever get into it) was that you could just wander if you got bored. You’d just point yourself in a random direction and see what popped out as interesting. Many of those places would be moderate sized cave systems that brought you out somewhere completely different, where you were free, again, to just pick a direction and explore.
It doesn’t feel like exploration to go to an empty map with a base that you kill everything in, then backtrack back to your ship every time.

Fallout 3 was the same, and I loved this so much. Somehow they failed to keep this up with 4 (I never played 76).
I guess they felt like worlds you were a part of, rather than the center of. So many things to discover!
I like starfield. Maybe it’s not for everyone, but I think the amount of shit it gets is unwarranted.
I don’t know I read comments like this and can only think you haven’t played too many games…
Idk, your comment sounds like you’re horrified that people enjoy different thing
You’re entitled to be wrong
Same to you.
Lol, thanks for the laugh
Glad you’re laughing, i’m worrying your life is so dull that you think people must be dull like you.
Edit: Nice, dude just message me and called me the R word.
Nice projection. Don’t you have a life to attend? No? Figures. Blocking you now, removed.
What do you mean Skyrim? Morrowind was clearly the best game they ever made.
Under sun and sky, we greet you warmly.
My n’wah
