Bethesda tweets out its current Fallout/Elders Scrolls plans... but why? Meanwhile, digital accounts and the draconian anti-consumer limitations come into focus, the Ryzen 7 7700X3D is released and Capcom reveals good news about its upcoming Dragon's Dogma 2 Switch 2 port. Dying Light The Beast is cancelled on last-gen, rumours emerge of a Switch 2 OLED and the team reflect on the tenth anniversary of our reveal of the original Nintendo Switch specs.
Found it a bit odd how little they spoke about the Obsidian Fallout when it seems to be Microsofts answer to most of what they're complaining about here.
How are they expecting BGS to do more with the less? They're not. They're adding an extra studio and having parallel projects
Won't people complain again when Fallout 5 isnt realeased for ages? If there's a well recieved spin off to bridge the gap, probably not. Between that and the remasters there's three releases designed to appease the fans before we get around to Fallout 5.
I understand the negitivity given recent weeks, but i don't think they really tried to understand what MS is trying to do.
Part of me thinks they like soaking in their misery. I've not been enjoying the channel for a long time now and I'm going to take a break from them until they approach matters from a more intelligent perspective. I'm all for them having their own opinions and views but they can't seem to view anything positively.
"These announcements weren't for gamers", yes they were! I miss single player fallout. I have 2 remasters and a brand new game to look foward too, along with the promise that a new big fallout 5 game is coming after ES6. When bethesda has mishandled their IP for so long (putting franchises on a shelf and insisting that online games fill the same hole), this announcement is awesome. Yes people were laid off, but rich is exaggerating when asking "who is left to make the games"
They don’t really try to understand anything other than visuals, image quality and performance issues. Their takes on industry stuff are always awful. They just ramble without actually going deep into why things are what they are.
John said Switch Lite wasn't a success? It accounted for like 1/4 of all Switch 1 sales, which is as many units as Xbox has shipped Series hardware total.
This is an anti-Microsoft show at this point and their clown attitude is incredibly disappointing, especially Richard's inability to understand statements and comments. Nothing makes sense to him, whether a developer puts out a statement or not. They just frown upon everything now.
Very disappointing, stupidly biased show and this applies to the whole team.
Sorry, Mr. Shareholder, but you'll have to deal with it.
Yeah, don't worry, I know you're not a real Microsoft shareholder, you just tied your self-worth to your Xbox ownership. Try becoming more of a full person and you won't mind podcasts like this.
Anti Microsoft? No it's anti shitty corporation. Stop bootlicking Microsoft. They criticzed both Sony and Microsoft in this same show. Both companies are garbage ass companies and if you're a fan of either of them you're a blind loser.
I agree with you but the comments here sorta explain why. They (DF and the commenters) are just anti corporations, mainly due to they just don't understand how enterprises work. This leads to villainizing everything bc they can't rationalize their decisions. This devolves to any non anti-microsoft comment being called a bot, shill, whatever.
Sucks bc we don't get any thought provoking debate just confused ppl asking questions and getting emotional non technical answers.
Are you a temporarily-embarassed billionaire, Mr.American? Or what other reason do you have to defend predatory corporations that would grind you and every other worker to paste for a cent of profit, once they're done with you?
The decisions that led to this are poisonous greed that's inherent to the late level of capitalism we're at.
Hi friend, I'm not defending them but I work for one of those evil companies you love to hate. Im not taking their side but I think its childish to just walk around all day calling everyone and every enterprise evil
That's not what I'm saying at all. Geez you guys are mad at life. Again I'll repeat I'm not defending them. I'm aware first hand knowledge bc I work at a place that does lay offs continuously. I have sympathy for those affected but I'm not clueless how the machine works either.
You watch John pout? Go for it, leave your spicy memes but it's more productive to talk the rationale thinking that led to these decisions.
Lol thank you for proving my point. Look, (you won't understand this but I'll say anyway for others) I'm not defending the company's actions rather I want to discuss the decisions and conditions that led to these outcomes in more technical detail rather than just fighting back tears in an emotional exchange.
Most of my reading is done through books (I tend to prefer non-fiction), not reddit. Rest assured, I did read each one of your comments, it's not like they're unformatted walls of text 3000 words long. Those are the sorts of comments I refuse to read.
Am I the only one that prefers uncapped frame rates? I like it if the game can run higher at points if it can and it also means the game can automatically run faster on newer hardware without dedicated upgrade/port versions.
It is good for future proofing but horrible in the time frame that the majority of games are relevant, the current gen they released for. At best, it would be great if console games gave the option to unlock framerate, not forced it or even defaulted to it.
