thats what pretty much everyone has been doing XD

I think there was an early/old interview or article where they confirmed it was the same engine

Oh god yes

It's going to be so shit <:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

tbh they could pretty much release skyrim 2 electric boogaloo and it would be better than 76

But who knows, maybe they finally decided to retire the old engine

God, it would be better if they just used Unity.

or unreal

yea lol

***FUCK IT, MAKE IT AN EPIC EXCLUSIVE IF YOU ATLEAST MAKE IT GOOD***

They’ve kept rather quiet about anything recently

Fuck off with your game engine, Bethesda. It's poo and old.

if i'm gonna be hopeful they could literally be going all hands on deck buidling an engine from the ground up and just starting there

Bethesda, the CoD of RPGs <:smugon:512048583806025739>

And even cod have undated this time around

they might have the money if 76 is enough of a cash cow

I don't remember if they announced anything about having mod support, but if Fallout 76 is anything to go by...

yeah XD

if they yeet mod support into the creation club they're fucked

even if they make a good game

I'm sure from their position, they want to have full control to monetize.

God I hope they do

Genuinely

It'll be fun to see Bethesda completely destroy their reputation further

lol yeah, get up there with activision and EA

Activision is at least made improvement this year for CoD. Can't say it'll last until next year, but still

But we all know people won't learn their lessons and will keep buying because "it's my favourite franchise"

Fuck playing teams.

I just want a good game, I don't care who makes it.

For some reason I tend to get to a franchise, play the games, be like "this is neat, I'm excited for the next one" and then the next one is crap

how many of those happened before like 2013

TES

Fucking Oblivion, reeeeeee

Also with Diablo and Starcraft

Good games excite me for franchises, but if the next one bombs, it's just kind of like, "meh not getting this one".

i mean, everyone says that the world didnt end in 2012, but has anyone really felt alive since?

Though to be fair, Diablo III didn't really have a chance to be better than II. It however didn't have to be such a pit of shit it is.

lol

Also kinda happened with Gothic, because 3 was a broken mess.

At least they released like 4 other gothics under various names since <:smugon:512048583806025739>

When you have shareholders to please, priorities change. It's like this in every industry.
