the entirety of bethesda is more comparable to Playstation Studios as a whole. it's at least 5 AAA teams. it would be like if Id Software released a AAA title every year.
Tom Henderson/Shinobi602: Indiana Jones is releasing in 2024
- Thread starter John Elden Ring
- Start date
The two aren’t even comparable.
Bethesda’s isn’t doing that all. All the games they released so far have been average to bad. They don’t even push hardware or software sales. Leading up to Starfield Xbox sales continued to fall. This is before reviews even came out.
Insomniac are in class all by themselves.
Your comparison sells PlayStation studios incredibly short in multiple ways, chiefly in size and the quality of content.
Hence why I said that Insomniac was doing a much better job. Not sure why you thought I was insulting them.
I meant to boost Insomniac. Playstation has like 8-10 AAA studios which is definitely bigger than Bethesda. I wouldn't say "selling them short" though since I made no comparison to quality or productivity.
I would not even compare them at all. That’s how much Insomniac is better. There’s nothing to compare!
Insomniac is like three or four teams. Bethesda/Zenimax, as a former publisher that retained internal independence, is more than double that. The main BGS studio (probably at least three teams, since Starfield, F76 and TESV are all being worked on currently), Zenimax Online, iD (two teams?,) Machine Games, Arkane (two teams,) Tango, and I think one or two more that I am forgetting about. Its really not a relevant comparison.
I don't get why all you people think that I was saying that they're the same size. I'm just saying that both Insomniac and Bethesda are releasing content for their platform holders whose other studios are taking a long time to get games ready, though Insomniac has put out more critically acclaimed and higher selling games this gen.
Thats really not fair to Sony then, GoW and Horizon both launched a year or two ago, MLB comes out every year, GT gets regular releases, TLOU gets lots of drops even if many are just rereleases, Asobi does lots of smaller games, Returnal is only three years old, etc. Thats totally different from the multiple "big" Microsoft studios that have been going something like six or seven years without a release.
I mean Tomb Raider 2013 is literally up there with the Uncharted games. But everything else after was just them coasting.

"Sooner than we think," so what you mean is, no real marketing push from MS, which means nobody will be aware of it, which then means lack of chatter, lack of players due to all of the above. Add the fact it's a bygone IP, and---
Pretty sure it's been confirmed to be a 1st person game
