I don't think Todd's laughing

Legitimately, quite seriously, the worst and most disappointing game I've played since Diablo 3. Barely any redeeming qualities. Everything is so fuckin boring and uninteresting...the characters, story, gun play, space ship building is basically pointless. They should have never scrapped the fuel system. Fuckin fast travel to POI fetch quest simulator. Killed any excitement I had for TES or Fallout 5.

God it's so painfully true. There's so much more he could have added, too. Fuckin dog shit ass game.

Imagine removing 'one' thing Bethesda actually did right from their games - the world design. What were they thinking?

>>718524670
todd is the target audience for the AI "games" people post on twitter. His studio got famous for handcrafted worlds but all he wants to make is an infinite slop game that's entirely computer generated.

>>718523476 (OP)
Still haven't played it, and I don't think I ever will.

>>718524809
You aren't missing anything. It's such a shallow game with zero edge.

Elder scrolls 6 is going to be hilariously bad but will still sell billions.

>>718523594
you were able to make a webm of that 120 minute long credits reel? damn son

>>718523814
i watched a stream of someone playing a complete overhaul mod a few days ago and despite the mod being pretty good all of those issues still ruined it

i completely get why the mod scene is completely dead compared to other bethesda vidyas

>>718523476 (OP)
I want to play it but I'm still busy being Sam Delivereedus

>>718525613
Yeah it's too big a turd to polish.

white man's game

I don't know about that. People are extremely fatigued by bad games and if anything the last few years have proven that cash customers are willing to avoid crap. There's been a long string of games from huge publishers, lots of marketing and from established IPs that have bombed spectacularly. If Doom can't carry Dark Ages, then there's a real possibility that TES can't carry Redguard. Take Two probably forced a delay on GTA6 to rewrite the story after seeing how badly DEI has flopped. You just know it was all Floyd shit until the last few months when they started leaking media with a totally white and hetero MC. The reason there's no leaks about the story is because they're frantically trying to make it fit the zeitgeist.

If you're hoping to see the industry crash, flops from GTA6 and TES6 will make it so.

desu bethesda still has a ton of idiotic millenials that will turn off their brains and attack anyone who criticizes the game if it's even vaguely oblivion-tier

look at the fucking oblivion remakester, people were literally making up fake gameplay differences in the first few days for what was effectively an HD wrapper for the original oblivion. it was one of the best selling games this year.

When 2001: A Space Odyssey came out, people were literally walking out of movie theatres because of how "boring" they thought the film was. But it stood the test of time for being atmospheric, minimalistic, and using a lot of silence. Starfield has had a similar kind of reception. History will be kind to it the same way, say, history has already been kind to Death Stranding.

>If you're hoping to see the industry crash,
You'll be waiting for until 2100 and even then it won't happen.

there is no universe where gta6 flops
they could literally not even release a game and third worlders would still pay for it just for having the logo on it

>>718527123
there is no universe were the foundational PC game series flops
there is no universe where a $400 million game shuts down after two weeks
there is no universe where Star Wars flops
there is no universe were there's more players on Eve than WoW
there is no universe where...

2001 really is a shit boring movie. Being an arthouse staple isn't a strategy can sustain a series. The Big Lebowski has probably made more money over since release than 2001. When's the last time a threatre could play 2001 and serve $15 white russians to throngs of stoners every summer?

>>718528453
>2001 really is a shit boring movie
just watch it on x2 speed bro

fun fact, moons around gas giants are all on the same plane as a potential ring system.
You would never be able to see the rings from that angle

I really have no idea how you could be fooled into thinking this game would be good prior to launch. It's been painfully obvious for ages that Besthesda has been riding on the coat tails of infinitely more talented writers and designers who created their two main IPs: Elder Scrolls and Fallout. They don't even take full advantage of those IPs and frequently misunderstand them. Their fan-favorite games totally rely on their settings and generally have very shallow gameplay. Now they're making their own IP from scratch, and everything they're showing and saying about it is absolutely generic (of course! how could it be anything else?) And then people act surprised when it's a super boring, generic universe with generally bad-to-okay gameplay.

I-it just needed a car, guys.

2024-now has had more than $1 billion in losses from game flops. 0% loans and DEI money are over. Even if the Bank of Japan and the US Federal Reserve were willing to back Sony and Microsoft to the hilt, the social stigma from releasing flop after flop would make PS and XB literally non-functional. Workers would figure out that nothing they do actually matters, skip work entirely or move on with no one to take their place. See the working environment at Arcane Austin for a recent example of this. Anyone smaller than Sony or Microsoft cannot count on such institutional backing and will fold much earlier. The games industry moving to gacha and gaas while still not being profitable is a clear sign of collapse.

basically this.
todd lost his competent people and failed to understand what made morrowind successful.
he was a tard wrangler at his supposed best.
a team lead that only touched things in the game because of the hellish grind, and what he touched in morrowind was dogshit.
he was then promoted way beyond game lead but insisted on having the same sort of detailed control a game lead would have, fucking up development massively.
he hired a retarded spaz to replace kirkbride, but never got a filter to tardwrangle said spaz like kirkbride always had to filter his schizophrenia into something consistent.

I went for all achievements in this POS of a game.

>main quest line
Someone at Bethesda really loved fetch quests because thats all you'll be doing.
>Crimson Fleet quest line
Was neat to infiltrate but otherwise full of girlbosses who really want you to know they are the boss.
>Freestar Rangers quest line
I don't even remember this quest line, probably means it was too boring or nothing going on.
>Ryujin Industries quest line
Meh, more girlbosses, I just wanted to kill everyone in this faction.
>UC Vanguard quest line
Probably the best faction questline but thats not saying much.
>The DLC
I was just skipping all dialog, its so boring.

Bethesda has always been a shitty slop company. They just got lucky and amassed an autistic fanbase who fixes their games for free. Very sad state of affair.

Mmm.... Let me guess, OP... Mommy didn't love you enough?

it was a dire warning of the consequences of indians having access to the world

It's like they banked on space being so inherently cool and interesting that they didn't have to put in any work designing fun gameplay.

Nobody plays GTA for the story retard

Starfield is literally TES Arena, but 30 years later and without as much of an excuse. Think about it.
