    I’ve been playing Bethesda games since Oblivion. I finally stopped pre-ordering after Fallout 4. I’m getting sick of immersion-breaking bugs and computer-generated fetch quests taking the place of real story writing.

    I’ve kinda wanted to firebomb EA and Bioware offices for the shit they’ve put my partner through lol. She so desperately wanted DA4 to be a good CRPG, or at least follow close to Inquisition and carry on the story.

    The Veilguard has shown none of that and every time something new for that shit show gets shown, I worry she’s going to cry.

    Need For Speed vibes, although Heat and Unbound is sorta decent in their own ways.

    It’s over bro, the developers who made the game you love are long, long gone. That isn’t your company, it’s a corporation wearing that company’s bloody torn-off face as a mask

    I know several people riding the dicks of the CoD devs. Like they are hoping it’s going to get better and keep throwing money at them.

      They have been using the same formula for 15 years and it still works, I have no idea what the people you know are expecting

    Dunno if it’s TES or Fallout that you’re into, but if it’s the former, check out the Beyond Skyrim project. It’s extremely ambitious, but they’re attempting to create the entirety of Tamriel as a series of Skyrim mods.

      Now I really hope that they manage to include old glitches/exploits and Easter eggs. You reminded me of Morrowind and the soul trap glitch and the scrolls of icarian flight, and my girlfriend now has been educated on both topics 🤣

      As a Nintendo fan, this is pretty accurate.

      Although getting joycon drift twice and then being able to play TOTK free from drift by pirating it onto my Deck may have finally brought the roots free.

      I want my favourite Nintendo games to become open source or open domain. Why do we have to wait like a century for open domain? 20-40 years would be much more reasonable.

    I just follow Skywind. I can’t give a fuck about whatever Bethesda does, as long as they leave those folks alone.

      Thank you for bringing skywind to my attention!! I was just nerding* out at my girlfriend with nostalgia for Morrowind, can’t wait until that’s playable!
