Do they think anyone still plays their dogshit game?

Ban steam chart threads

>>719211514 (OP)
Isn't there that one asspie guy on /v/ who defends this shitshow religiously? So it has plays, just not a fraction of other games. They all might also be playing solely out of spit and are being contrarian

I find it funny how MS keeps buying companies then intentionally makes them shit and failing. There will be a time in our timeline where COD won't make profit.

>>719211582
blast steam chart threads in the face with glass

>>719211759
I genuinely question if retards like you are capable of bathing yourselves.

>>719211582
this one is funny tho cause that lil bump in Oct 2024 is when the first DLC came out and literally no one cared

>>719211514 (OP)

Has MS released any good game in the last 10 yrs?
Hardmode: no Hi-Fi Rush and Flight Simulator

Hopefully whoever's making elder scrolls 6 knows how to make a fun game.

>>719212282
You forgot South of Midnight, which also flopped kek.

>>719211514 (OP)
No, but I am pretty sure that they were contractually obligated to make another DLC.

The last free update was a quest to introduce you to the Paid Mods vendor.
>buying mods

>>719212282
OW1 was a success considering its AA not AAA

>>719212310
It doesn't matter. There will come a day where more people will be playing Skyrim than ES6, and the gap between them will continue to grow wider.

>>719212282
Don't forget that they somehow managed to kill Halo

>>719212564
What is a DLC if not a paid mod?

>>719212579
That was before MS bought ActiBlizz though

>>719212282
Didn't flop
Didn't flop
Definitely didn't flop
Remains to be seen
Every cod is "disliked"
GoW1 is shit
Would've done worse without ms, the game got delayed over a year because of them

YOU FUCKING INGRATES. STARFIELD WAS MY MAGNUM OPUS. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MANY INDIANS SACRIFICED THEIR LIVES TO MAKE IT POSSIBLE????

>>719211514 (OP)
Starfield is shit, but OP is retarded.

>>719214601
Hey anon how many ppl are playing Skyrim right now?

>>719214452
not enough apparently

No one played Sharted Space why would they place this?

>>719211514 (OP)
They're under obligation to deliver DLC because they sold the Premium edition that promised DLC. It's that simple.

>Todd finally tries to create his own IP (he didn't create TES)
>fails miserably
this just proves he has been carried by the work of others his entire career

>>719211668
>asspie guy on /v/ who defends this shitshow
I only see people on /v/ ever making unprovoked threads about how bad Starfield is.
Why would they do that multiple times a day for two years?
Buttfucked by Todd or something?

>>719215039
It was a success saleswise and is still one of XBox most played games

>>719215239
yeah I forgot 10 billion people played it on gaypass

>>719211668
>that one aspie on /v/
>one

>>719214601
it's true that steam charts aren't very useful long term for single player games, but they're very useful in the first few weeks after a game is released because that's when we can get a sense of how well a game is going to perform

>>719211514 (OP)
not even modders care about that abomination, when lies got so big and content so little there are no incentive to keep going

>>719211759
your retarded this isn't really ms thing this is a pure Bethesda thing already on the pipeline out before the sale.
>todd probably tied it to the deal for release.

>>719211514 (OP)
Made me check but it actually has 5k players right now.

Starfield was a global phenomenon and a success, anti-Starfield shills are the minority

>>719211514 (OP)
Bethesda invests heavily in "grassroots marketing", which means they have a lot of shills in forums and sites to push the game, and everyones been pointing out the game is shit and got dropped near immediately, and tes will likely be shit too considering this game, 76 and fallout 4. So todd is probably seething and looking for a way to fix a bit of bethesdas rep.

>>719212310
good one anon

>>719216673
>players

>>719216814
It's funny, because the game is so bad that no amount of shilling will save it. They had Skyrim and Fallout kiddies ripe for the taking, and they still managed to make all of them wake up from their brainwashing and go "What the fuck is this shit?"

>>719211759
It's not just microsoft. They probably have a toxic work culture, but its all compounding on itself
>replace experienced devs who cost too much with indian hires or kids straight out of university
>the indians dont actually know how to code, they just get their cousin to do it or ask ai to do it, or vibe code only
>the kids can barely code either, only know how to work in ue5, and are filled to the ears with marxist propaganda from university
So not only are your games coming out shittier, less complex, less optimized, forced into ue5, but they're also preachy and political, and its all slowed down because of whichever bloated corporate culture they're coming out of.

>>719216963
its amazing how shit it is honestly. I dont know what the fuck their devs were thinking, or todd, or microsoft. Not only do most of the npcs look like the la creatura meme, but even the brothels just have fat men dancing in them. Basic common sense could have fixed 90% of bethesdas aesthetics issues in the game.

>>719214374
Delusional xboxtroon.

>>719212310
Anon I've quit on that game entirely after Fallout 76. Didn't even pirate Saarfield and sure enough it's a dogshit game.
There is no hope.

>>719214374
outrageous cope

>>719217085
according to Tim Lamb in the developer spotlight Bethesda released today, gamers didn't appreciate that they paid for one game but really got at least 4 (RPG + ship-builder + outpost builder + dungeon crawler + space exploration)
it was actually too good, you see, and you're a pleb for not noticing

>>719217920
who the fuck is tim lamb?

>>719218192
this nigga

>>719217920
isn't it 0 of those things?

>>719218313
Don't point that out

>>719211514 (OP)
Will probably get the definitive version with all the expansions when it is 20 euro or so

>>719211514 (OP)
They're making another starfield dlc? Didn't the last one get critically panned?

>>719211514 (OP)
Can you play it on Steam Deck yet? If not I still ain't playing this shit.

>>719218463
see >>719215037

>>719217920
>RPG + ship-builder + outpost builder + dungeon crawler + space exploration
bethesda is just autistic and thats how they think of their game, as discrete parts that sort of exist next to each other instead of one cohesive whole that informs the other parts

>>719218514
They added ultra low mode so maybe

>>719218313
What the fuck did you just say, you little bitch?

>>719218572
NO TODD NO

Starfield won

>>719212282
I completely forgot there was Gears of War 1 remake

>>719214768
How does other people playing single player games impact you?

>>719211514 (OP)
Realistically, what could save this game?

>>719219019
Removal all the procedural bullshit and make worlds with more than a single interesting POI. Difficulty level impossible.

>>719219006
Well anon your point seemed to be that no one should be surprised when a single-player game like Starfield drops players like flies. Yet games like Skyrim, New Vegas, and Fallout 4 consistently have higher player counts despite being much older. Which leads one to conclude that Starfield didn't die because that's what Bethesda RPGs do - it died cause it's a shit game.

>>719219295
>I ONLY LIKE POPULAR THING
Speaking broadly here but LMAO at your life
>NOOO REEEEEEE CANT PLAY GAME PLAYER COUNT LOW PLAYER COUNT LOW
Embarrassing.

>>719219295
You can make the argument the game sucks balls without bringing up the player count. Steamcharts posters should all be shot.

>>719219372
That's not what I said at all, but if it makes you feel better to imagine winning an argument in your head then have at it I guess

>>719212310
You have more faith in TES 6 than Bethesda.

>>719218538
Ok nice. When does the update drop?

ummm oblivionsissies...

>>719211514 (OP)
DLC is planned before the game comes out

also Microsoft foots the bill so who gives a fuck

As with all Bethesda games,
I played it on launch for a bit and it was fun.

I'll play it again once all DLC is out.

>>719211514 (OP)
Piranha bytes had the last laugh in the end. Elex 2 is far FAR better than shartfield

>>719220094
Never heard of it. Does it have 12 million players?

>>719219372
blud spun out hard after being explained to what a tard he is... baka at these niggas

I honestly think it isn't as bad as everyone says it is.

The selling point of free exploration is about as bullshit as "You see that mountain? You can climb it!" Sure you can explore but there literally is no point. Nothing weird out there to find. Same with outposts. Even more pointless than the settlements in Fallout 4. Still a fabulous game about finding meaning in a meaningless universe, even if that is a bit meta when it happens to be in a video game.

>>719220529
People were expecting some grand space exploration game like scam citizen from a company that debelops RPG's.
They set themselves up and they don't realise the bitterness is from their own expectations.

I got what I wanted out of it and I enjoyed it.

>>719211514 (OP)
It's unsalvageable. They should move on.

>>719220634
They were pretty clear that it was a Bethesda RPG. People took the space aspect and ran wild with it in their imaginations

>>719216970
What happens to senior devs when they cant find work? Does coding for games translate into other fields?

>>719222484
You'd honestly be surprised at how many people have a use for programmers experienced in realtime physics simulation

A bunch of them ended up in the space sector, like me, actually

>>719214374
hahahah

>>719212282
Those are all game pass games.

>>719223284
are you working for Elon Musk

>>719220529
>I honestly think it isn't as bad as everyone says it is.
it is because it was a new IP from one of the largest AAA developers, and it was as undercooked, unfun, unpolished, and terrible as it gets.
I get you and every other apathetic retard have continually lowered your bar over the years so shit is now palatable, but stop trying to downplay bad games and be delusional about what they are.

>>719219019
A no man's sky level of work, overhauls and updates.

>>719223284
I was not expecting that answer thats pretty cool

>>719212391
and hellblade 2

>>719212579
It was only a success because they advertised it as New Vegas in space. Meanwhile the game didn't even have 10% of the quality FNV had. What a piece of shit that game was. The only thing that kept it in the conversation was that it was constantly mistaken with Outer Wilds

>>719211514 (OP)
It's 2 years later and Starfield's playerbase is growing while making trannies seethe. That's based.

>>719224962
DUNC Bros... what happened?

>>719219583
It is you fucking faggot. Don't lie to me you bitch
>WAAAAAAH NUMBERS
There's a million ways to describe why Starfield sucks shit and the only thing your tiny fucking brain can come up with is
>durr low player count
Yeah no shit it's got low players. I don't fucking care about that shit though and never will. Why something is good or bad is far more interesting than your constant steamcharts spam. Kill yourself.

>>719225334
The only people who hate starfield are the same people who hate popular games like expedition 33, baldur's gate 3, silksong and etc and chose to be contrarian about it.

>>719222484
they try to start their own studio by advertising themselves with "from the people that worked on X" in order to get people and investors interested and try their luck
either they stick to small scale indie stuff and usually do alright making something novel or they try and ape what they're purporting to be their original claim to fame and typically fail awfully
granted failing awfully could just mean financially failing or they duped a lot of people into buying a game that was trash and burned their good faith, but then at least made a bit of money
stormgate comes to mind for the latter and E33 for the former sans the small scale aspect

>>719225417
starfield isnt a popular game though...

>>719219845
>shills strategically ignored this post

>>719224962
Also
>>719226321

>>719224997
It's another dayz/rust/ark game. People don't care about that much anymore. One day the investors will forget about battle royale/survival/FPS games and the industry will start healing again.

>>719226624
Not after Palworld succeeded.

>>719219019
its beyond saving, the best they could do is completely pivot against trying to make it a serious game and turn it into an even buggier ridiculous piece of shit possible for laughs. the only things i even know of this game are the hilarious bugs. i just know theres a completely average game behind the few notable exceptional wacky scenarios
