I’m thinking a meta of around 92.

Nothing dethrones TOTK, GOTG runner up to It Takes Two.
TotK and BG3 are my choices for GOTY right now… I will play BG3 to choose one.

While that I hope for a nice surprise until the end of the year.

Oblivion and Skyrim are amazing (Fallout New Vega too).
Bethesda are master in story writing and world building… the sense of freedom and adventure in their games are unmatched.

CDPR is very similar to Bethesda… bad at gameplay and good writing (in the Witcher due not being their writing) and world building.

Nah.

From Software are good in combat gameplay… something Bethesda is not good.

CDPR is very similar to Bethesda… bad at gameplay and good writing (in the Witcher due not being their writing) and world building.

I still put Bethesda over CDPR dure their games being so unique and unmatched in the market (yes… there is no game like Oblivion or Skyrim in the market).

You guys don’t need to put off a developer just because MS brought them… their games have issues? Yes but what they do best are unmatched in the industry and that counts a lot.

Saying games like Oblivion or Skyrim are bad is suck a sad read in forums.

Yeah the worldbuilding of Bethesda games is always amazing,

The execution usually leaves to be desired

Those that praise it like the coming of Jesus, yes. A lot of others are leaking just how bad this game is.

BUT, most are saying they're having fun.

Most leakers are saying it peforms exactly like Fallout 4 and Skyrim, a lot of things to do and explore but with the classic Bethesda jank. So if you liked their previous games you will love Starfield

That is expected from Bethesda... tons of bugs, issues and performance not there.
Still I think it is weird some guys thinking Skyrim is a bad game.
Seems like hate blind people "opnions" 🤷‍♂️

The thing is that folks that like "prestige" one and doners don't understand that the base game of a BGS release is just a canvas (mainly on PC) as long as the game is not broken it's fun and immersive, the rest is up to the community. The game will continue being relevant for a decade or more thanks to modding and total conversions.

Just like Skyrim, oblivion, Morrowind and the fallout games.

Nah i love Skyrim, it's just that Bethesda games usually age pretty badly.

Hope not, but, you can't stop that.



That's dumb, anyone can try the game for themselves on xCloud for a month.

She’s still a Microsoft shill even as a PlayStation Dev
She is friend with that lead guy from SM, so they give her a "job" to secure her visa.

So without PS helping her a hand, she wouldn't probably get to stay in US.

What an Aussie wankah cunt.

She is not and never has been a PlayStation Dev.
She lied saying she was working as writer in Ragnarok but her name was never show in the credits as writer or anything else.

Games media really been getting eggs in their faces with their reviews for this gen. Halo Infinite, Cyberpunk, Deathloop to name a few all scored in the high 80s and then were met with the absolute opposite reception by everybody else. Starfield is next up to see whether it will share the same fate and with the way MS been handling the review codes it possible Starfield might not be that homerun Xbox was hoping for. I hope I am wrong cause I enjoy Bethesda RPGs but this whole build up to Starfield to me feels different in a worrisome way compared to the build up of past Fallout games and Skyrim.

While she is not a dev, she didn't necessarily lie.



Music artist that worked in the game but is not in the credits. So Alanah's contributions are probably small, but it doesn't mean she lied.

And she does work for Santa Monica.

Edit - Her linkedin lists her as a contractor, so it's not only possible, but very likely, that they did not list some contractors due to them... being contractors. Just a theory.

Jessica Mao was a intern at Santa Monica between May and August 2021 (that is proved).
She alleged that worked in the editing and arrangement of initial scene of Ragnarok.
As she was a intern then I believe she was supervisioned by somebody else... so her work was not directed done by her or the decisions was not done by her... she is learning.... but I know there is interns abuse in some places.

I'm not saying I don't believe here but she needs more than a twitter account post to prove herself.

I mean I worked at The Last of Us 2 and got not credited either 🤷‍♂️

+ Very Stable Performance and very few bugs.
+ Epic Ost

Negatives

- Bad enemy AI in general
- The spaceship combat is weak
- Inventory management is very difficult
- Weak character models and facial animations.
- The game doesn't explain much of its systems.

He gave it a 8.5
