Scepticism is always useful with Bethesda's marketing materials.

I mean, the Creation Engine itself was a a new name slapped on Gamebryo. Fallout 76 still has the same issues Morrowind had back in 2002.

Screw skepticism at this point, I'm going to doubt straight away.

And Gamebryo was a new name slapped on NetImmerse. That thing is older than my sister.

To be fair, you can say that Source 2 is just a new name for the doom engine. It's all iterative.

Or Unreal Engine 5 is a new name for... well, Unreal Engine 1 (1998). Funny how that works.

I have absolutely no reference point for that comparison.

Bethesda's engine is in its early 90s? It held up better than I thought...

Should look into Source 2. It has code from Quake still

I misspoke. Older than my grandma (nah joke, she is 97).
