oh my God another sequel to the biggest franchises with plenty of sequels? what a fierce and independent leader

[-] BananaOnionJuice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 81 points 6 days ago

I'm certain that this will have no negative consequences on the quality and reception of the releases.

Yeah, rushed games are always the best. Love them.

[-] yakko@feddit.uk 21 points 6 days ago

Sure, normal take. But ES6 would not be 'rushed' even if they finished it a decade ago.

[-] Jesus_666@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago

It can absolutely be both rushed and way late. You just have to move very slowly (or inefficiently) for a long time and then try to get what you have release-ready in a hurry.

[-] tiny_hedgehog@piefed.social 4 points 6 days ago

You make a good point.

[-] mech@feddit.org 4 points 6 days ago

This doesn't affect me, cause I never buy games before the first >50% off Steam sale.

[-] justsomeguy@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

Ye but there have been plenty of games that never got fixed because once a game flops the publisher usually isn't super interested in dumping more cash into it.

I still remember anthem and how they wanted to fix it up for a 2.0 release but when EA realized they wouldn't be able to sell it again because players HAD ALREADY FUCKING PAYED FOR IT they just abandoned it.

All that being said something seems to be going wrong in current game development cycles. It took 4-5 years to make Skyrim and now ES6 will 3 to 4 times as long.

[-] FireRetardant@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

Right Bethesda is defintely gonna release an update and fix all the bugs by then, they are well known for that.

[-] femtek 1 points 6 days ago

Modders will though.

[-] juipeltje@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

It worked out great for jedi survivor

[-] KokusnussRitter@discuss.tchncs.de 29 points 6 days ago

Oh cool. More devs being worked to death. Yippie!

[-] TheGoldenV@lemmy.world 14 points 6 days ago

Worked to death and then fired to increase the stock.

[-] vinnymac@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

They’ll create more mandates that you have to use AI to meet quotas or else, and then fire you anyways

Fallout's been dead since before 3 was released

[-] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

Liquid Nitrogen ass cold take.

If you like to play simplified trash, go ahead. New Vegas was playable, but the soul of the series has been gone for a long time

[-] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

I'm almost 40, my guy. Sometimes I just like to have fun, not focus on a spreadsheet.

CEO needs money... More at 11 ¯\(ツ)

[-] MisterCurtis@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

Let's demand a studio known for rushed buggy releases even when on schedule, rush to release early. Nothing can go wrong.

[-] warmaster@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

The next Xbox will be the last Xbox.

[-] orochi02@feddit.org 1 points 5 days ago

Isnt the last ES over 12 years or so? Even though im all for a Game taking its time, Isnt a Little push okay? I even heard that es6 wasnt even a priority internally..

[-] OrgunDonor@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

I mean, I can understand why it wasn't much of a priority. Was seemingly announced as a way to increase the value of Bethesda before MS bought them. And was known to be just a title, nothing hard started on it, as they were working on Star field.

Bumping it's priority now and then maybe not remaking it dozens of times seems like a good idea in general.

[-] MoreZombies@quokk.au 1 points 6 days ago

this could put the pressure on that results in more third party or spin-off games, rather than rushed main titles.

Give me Brian Fargo having a modern go at it.
