Fucking Bethesda. If Starfield wasnt such a failure (amongst others) this might not have happened. Yet rather than cut where the issues are they decimate the studio that actually produces the great games.
It sold like 4.5M copies so I'm not sure it was a failure per se
I think it still lost money though it was like hundreds of millions of dollars in costs
Just once I'd like a game to spend tens of millions on writers.
