Zerot posted:A new Elder Scrolls game comes out rarely enough that I don't think it's a big deal. Might be good because fans of the genre might be more likely to buy an Xbox now than before. Are people going to stop playing Witcher games when a new Elder Scrolls game comes out? I mean, I don’t know. maybe. But they both seem to be doing well enough right now. Witcher 3 still seems to be selling briskly and ppl playing it (esp because of the show) and Skyrim still moves gangbuster units in 2020, was relatively recently ported to VR on two platforms and put on a Nintendo portable device, and TESO is apparently good and big enough to be a healthy, thriving MMO. So maybe two fantasy games can exist under the same publisher.

Ok Comboomer posted:Are people going to stop playing Witcher games when a new Elder Scrolls game comes out? even if there was a witcher game coming out, if elder scrolls is truly an exclusive to pc and xbox only of course that is going to increase xbox marketshare. There's no point arguing against it, its a huge series... colossal. we're talking about a series with horrible ports on ps3 outselling pc because console audience is so huge for it. that's assuming... they have a es6 coming out, which currently seems to be far in the future

Microsoft can use all their IPs to make a smash brothers clone. But instead of half the roster bei.g generic sword guys its generic doomguy clones.

Stux posted:yeah everyone wild about obsidian finally doing another fallout after seeing what theyve been missing out on with [chehcks notes] outer Worlds Would fallout going from Bethetic to Obisidian be an upgrade, downgrade, or lateral move? (lateral move) It’s like when they got Joss Whedon to replace Zack Snyder making Justice League Thom12255 posted:Yes they bought all the studios owned by Zenimax with includes TESO (which is already on gamepass). oh word! Gonna get GamePass now, I’ve always been TESO-curious but never felt like buying it ethanol posted:well there is no witcher game now. we're getting cyberpunk. I honestly think of elder scrolls / skyrim as a rpg subgenre that has yet to be captured by another game. it's more than just the open world. witcher 3 is much more traditional open world rpg imo, closer to ubisoft's formula. Agreed, I just meant that the idea that good and popular fantasy games steal market share from each other doesn’t seem to bear out. Like people give enough of a poo poo about Kingdoms of Amalur for that to be getting some fresh attention. More content=more consumption, period. Netflix proves this every year. And especially now with COVID and into a post-2020 future.

This is a surprise. GamePass is going to shake up the industry now. It was always a good idea but dependant heavily on what games are actually on there and whether things will be available at release or delayed. If they’re releasing AAA games at launch, that is amazing. Not sure how the tier system works though.

Then there was the whole 76 launch where they leaked the credit card info of everyone who bought the collector's edition. Bethesda will be right at home under MS

I was probably always gonna buy an XSX, but it won't be for a few years. A few years is probably also when this deal starts having an effect on games...
