I really wish this was Howards swan song instead of Elder Scrolls 6. Bethsoft is in dire need of new leadership.
Comment on StarUI, a must-hvae mod to replace the bad inventory UI

Design the whole game so that it’s equally bad on all platforms then rely on modders to make it functional on PC

I mean they are making games for literally everyone. It was only ever going to be a watered down theme park.

That’s the direction that Howard took the company.

lol seriously? they had 6 million people play starfield literally days after release and it was the highest selling game on steam before early access even started. theres no way they are in “dire need of new leadership” 😂😂

I’m sure the shareholders don’t think so, and a lot of the fans are fine. Starfield is the RPG equivalent of Madden 2024 and some folks were expecting Football Manager

Among my top ten favorite games: Morrowind Oblivion Skyrim Fallout 3 Fallout new vegas Fallout 4
Starfield is definitely fallout/elder scrolls in space. Morrowind and fallout new vegas, despite being very dated, I think are better than what I’ve seen so far in Starfield
I’m still enjoying the game and think your comparison is overtly insulting to the game. We aren’t going to get that old magic back. Every game franchise gets watered down as the tears go by in an attempt to maximize market share, it’s just a fact of life, and part of the ecosystem that gives us games in the first place.
Give it a few months and grab some mods and it’ll be just like to good old days
I get that we shouldn’t have to do that, but actually we kinda do. Better than not having a game at all.

starfield isnt even in the same universe as madden 24. thats an insane comparison lol

Sales does not equal quality
BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 1 year ago

And by standard, you mean bad. Bethesda doesn't get away with QOL improvements that every other major game company figured out years ago.
