  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.

        Yeah but don’t you realize that the UI sucks and therefore Todd Howard and all of the leadership team needs to be fired?!

        Both are mass market theme park games. Madden has a different pricing model but make no mistake the type of gamer (not genre) target audience is largely overlapping. These are games for casual players first

        True.
        Starfield is set in the future.

    Sales does not equal quality

    • BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      well the game is quality so whats ur point?

      • WarmSoda@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        I mean sure. If you enjoy bare bones winning no matter what and consider that a quality game, then yeah it’s a game with that quality.
