  @Aurelian_27 @danno_omen Well if they start holding back Day 1 games they're going to have a big subscriber drop off. CoD makes sense, it's the biggest selling game every year and is stupid expensive to produce. Removing it and lowering the price $7 was a decent trade off, but if you start removing Halo, Gears, Elder Scrolls or Fallout you're going to have backlash. Think of it this way, for every 10 subscribers that keep Game Pass Ultimate over Premium for a month, they get the same revenue as 1 sale. It's easier to sell a $23 sub than a $70 game but then if those users stay on the service, Microsoft gets that money every month no matter what other game they put out.

  I love Creation Engine. Proprietary engines play a significant role in forming a game's identity and I would never wish that away. Bethesda is who they are in large part because of this engine. That said, to spend countless years and millions of dollars on a new game and NOT strive to break new ground or do something you haven't before feels like a waste. The Creation Engine hasn't shown a meaningful capacity to grow and change with modern gaming expectation and that's a problem. I still want Bethesda games to feel like Bethesda games, but if Creation Engine 3 doesn't massively impress and prove that it can deliver a truly modern gaming experience, it will be imperative that Bethesda make changes that I don't think they're willing to make. At this point, promising the future of The Elder Scrolls and Fallout on Creation Engine feels like a giant gamble.

  MAGIC: THE GATHERING IS BECOMING A CORPORATE FRANCHISE SOUP Wizards of the Coast is leaning hard into the "Universes Beyond" strategy, turning Magic into the Smash Bros of cardboard collectibles. While the purists scream into the void about lore integrity, the market speaks a different language: crossovers print money. Bringing Narnia’s Narnian Pevensies or the dense, magic-heavy Cosmere into the game isn't just fan service—it's a calculated raid on adjacent fandom wallets. The real shift here isn't the IP itself, but the dilution of the game's original identity. When you can cast a spell using a character from The Elder Scrolls while your opponent plays a Fallout Commander deck, the "Magic" feel starts to evaporate. It’s no longer a standalone fantasy universe; it’s a digital-ready IP billboard. Is this the death of thematic consistency, or just the inevitable evolution of an aging card game? Source: IGN $HAS

  The Elder Scrolls VI is going to be... big!? Wow! Whoa! I could not care less. Bethesda's obsession with scale over focus has been a problem since Oblivion, and it's only gotten substantially worse over time. "The game world is the size of a real country!" I don't care.

  @PassiveProphet Waiting till they spent like 3+ years on the game and it being like 90% done then cancelling it was not cancelling it in time. A true leader would've been able to see the problems much earlier on and would've given the relevant feedback/stop it in time. Dude kept saying 7 years to make a game is fine how many games did that this gen besides the obvious GTA VI and Elder scrolls VI which are massive games?

  Chubigans (@metatransformr) reported 17 minutes ago

  (nerd alert) what im working on right now is the interesting human-ai interaction problem of: > how best to author arbitrary types of canon/lore/level design/game worlds The way I think of your game's canon/world is as - A wiki - A graph - A database Collections of data with a schema and relations. for instance: - we need to be able to lay things out spatially like town / dungeon / maps - we need to be able to create arbitrary schemas for things in our game world such as monsters / players / factions We need to be able to link things together, for instance a certain NPC linked to a certain faction. So essentially you're creating a database of stuff for your game world. The problem is, no world builder i know uses a database perspective to author their world. They sketch things in notebooks, they "play", they just "vibe it out" So Im trying to figure out which abstractions I need to make (i.e. spatial, "entity", *thing*), so that we can "enter a game world" and author things naturally. Sometimes you're authoring in 3d, sometimes in 2d, sometimes in pure text. And then the AI translates your authoring intent to a diff on the database - Potentially, data schema diffs - also data diffs themselves - Image generations and sketches. The AI acts as a mirror "reflecting" the world back to you (like a DM) so you can follow a thread and work something out. Im still nowhere near where I want this app to feel - I want it to feel seamless to dive in and start envisioning your world. The objective function I am using is *simplicity* and *completeness* with which we can author the canon / data schemas of existing RPGs (i.e. elder scrolls, baldurs gate etc) - so I can allow my developer agent to "search" for possible UI/UX solutions to these problems. how do you author worlds?

  @St1ka @nameresu Again, if we look at actual development time its more like 8 years. They also arent forcing larger budgets and dev times on other devs at all. There are probably 4 or 5 franchises in total that do this. Elder Scrolls, Cyber Punk, Witcher and Rockstar games. Cyber Punk also made the mistake of releasing too early (which cost them dearly). I have no problem with that for these franchise (although elder scrolls is dragging and potentially because Bethesda track record isnt what is once was). Literally every other franchise does things differently... The ones that do it yearly burn out and lose customers from repetition. Other devs focus on more unique experiences. Each to their own.

  @Lord_Of_Shorvia @stormfall33 It's probably not gonna be another Starfield. The biggest problem of that game is the space setting. The combat is fine, the hand-crafted content is mostly decent.. the setting is underdeveloped, which isn't a problem for Elder Scrolls.

  @lastchalice @XBOXTIMDOG And that's exactly why Xbox should make Elder Scrolls and other non-live service games full exclusives. If they go all in like the 360 era, Sony is cooked with their 1sr party network in shambles, most 3rd parties going full multiplatform and player trust dissolved.

  @CTPhipps1980 @RazorFist No one’s saying every programmer or artist decided to delay Elder Scrolls VI, but the issue is that Bethesda expanded its workforce while its output and quality took a nose dive the last 15+ years. Layoffs are a consequence of the studio’s overall severe lack of performance.
