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.
That's why you need to have strong CEOs that have talent and not just a name in a suit.
But yea, I don't think I have a favourite franchise. There are a few solid ones, which is mostly old Blizzard games and TES. But then again, can you count it as a franchise when it's only two games?
I don't think you can
I just like individual games, franchise or not.

Video Games Are Better Without Characters
The real legacy of SimCity is its attempt—and failure—to make complex systems the protagonists instead of people.

Video Games Are Better Without Stories
Film, television, and literature all tell them better. So why are games still obsessed with narrative?

“Making a video game? “
“Yeah, but it doesn’t have a story or characters in it”
“Oh so a Tetris remake?”
Bethesda forgot to register the domain name for the Fallout First subscription. Angry fan gets there first and decides to express their discontent for the game.

I find it funny that biden's campaign also did this.
That goose game article REALLY shows that games journos hate games
OMG, this looks exactly like a tencent game... Not even fucking with people saying this.
But well obviously, it is from china, as an exported IP.

Bruh wtf
That's like 3-4x that of GTA5 IIRC
Only thing I’ve ever installed that came that close was The Division 2
ikr
It's retarded
So much for compressing files down to make it easier for the end user.
But noooooooooooooooooooooooooo
>what if that IS the compressed size

That'd be retarded
It's got an 8/10 on metacrytic from the users. Those that say it's bad give shit reviews, and those that are saying it's good are saying it's a return to form
So I got it
tbh it's downloading relatively quickly for me
Better than Steam actually
It gets better...
Starfield will probably come first since Todd said it's already in a playable state
