You're all going to buy the next Bethesda game anyway. CDPR can be running a literal pedo ring and people will still buy their game.

I stopped buying beth games after skyrim and skyrim SE was free to me but I have never wasted time with it and have instead stayed with skyrim LE.

well if you stoke the fire with self-fulfilling prophecies it's only a matter of time, especially since the staff in their infinite wisdove have decided to ban discussion of 76 because reasons. So they just have to skim through the thread and if they do, they'll probably lock it.

Translation: 'Say anything we don't like and we'll shut you down.'

[DoctaSax]

Pfft, you've baited them to do it in every thread like this so far. Don't come crying to us.

Pfft, they pull that shit in every thread they don't like; and it happens in threads I don't post in.  I'm not the commonality, they are.

 

EDIT: And you just admitted you know they do it.  ?

[Ernest Lemmingway]

Just ignore the troll. They create threads like this just to try and get attention.

 

EDIT: And I realize some people think I'm the pot calling the kettle black, but I've never created a thread or posted something just to draw attention to myself. If I see something or think of something that I want honest feedback on, or I just want to entertain folks or vent, that's when I post. If people read into anything I say, that's their problem.

I have the impression, there are no real RPGs anymore (via The Witcher, Dragon Age, and The Elder Scroll)!
everything shifts towards shooter with end time history. 
I have the impression the game industry wants the humanity thereon to prepare, what the future brings.

 

I mean the reality.

The guys at Marvel Comics thought similar things about their fans only for them to eventually abandon them in droves.

Of course, Marvel's movie unit more than made up for the cratering of the comics division. Such is the advantage of being a multi-national corporation. If one portion fails, another will pick up the slack with a new fanbase.

Pillars of Eternity, Tyranny and Divinity:Original Sin 1&2 were released after all of the games that you mentioned yet they have not taken one solitary step towards becoming action games.

you're right, but all these games have a thing I do not like, click and fight or turn based, just like final fantasy.
I also do not like the camera leadership, from diagonally above, I like 1st person or 2nd person, camera from behind, and in any case 360°. 

 

edit: for Divinity: Original Sin 2, there is not even the German voice output. 

edit2: my mistake German voice was released much later.

So CDPR is such a horrible company because of "crunch." Every gaming company is guilty of it lately, it seems. And the number of people complaining about it to reporters and quitting? Four. The rest of the company's employees are offering very mixed reports.

CDPR; a Polish company holding their employees to a Polish working standard.  Oh, the horror.

Wouldn't say it's polish standard, but definitly game dev standard. At least CDPRs employees don't have to move every two years a few hundred miles to the next lowest tax haven like some other companies do. At least that's what a docu reported a few years ago, can't remember the exact names of the companies, but employees complaining about it said it's not really a single one, it's just standard for working in that field.

that's the funniest thing for me, Character creation in a first person game, where you can not see your character anyway.
roleplay, you will find new armor, where, not visible, oh yes, is ego-perspective.

Classic cRPGs are either turn based or real time with pause. You're talking about hybrid RPGs, like Gothic (and other games from Piranha Bytes) and Bethesda's Elder Scrolls / Fallout series. Which are in turn loathed by RPG purists. There are not many studios willing to deal with the challenge of creating such a world, it's way easier to make money through typical open world games filled with busy-work or flavor of the month multiplayer games. Though you might want to look at Dragon's Dogma, it's not the same, but the closest one I can think of.

[Ernest Lemmingway]

Of course we've not heard word one about what's going on in Bethesda--or any ZeniMax subsidiary. They've blacklisted any media outlet that dares say something bad about them and circled the wagons. Forbes writes an article mentioning Rage 2's lack of marketing and someone tweets "lol who even are you?"  No one knows what's going with them.

If it's like Witcher3 you'll see yourself during dialogue and cinematic cutscenes.  The game also has mirrors and you can see yourself in window reflections.  Driving a vehicle is also in 3rd person.  There will be plenty of chances to see the character you create.

Bethesda has always been like that.  Call them out on their lies and bullshit or do something as basic as pointing out the obvious and BAM! blacklisted.

such as that.

there are game developers who can do it and there are some they can that not.

I think it depends on the quality of the product. If CD Project Red has good shit then hail fucking Pedobear! If Bugthesda has good shit then hail fucking Bugthesda!

Shutup and take my bloodstained cash!

I won't buy any future Bethesda games on principle.  They lost me as a customer with FO4, and the on-going FO76 fiasco confirms I'm making the right decision.  They're in the same 'never-gonna-buy-anything-you-make' shithouse as EA and Ubisoft.  If CDPR ever crosses the line they can join too.  I don't have loyalty to corporations, only good games and my satisfaction (it is my money, afterall).  Fuck that up and I'll speak with my wallet.

BETHESDA GAME STUDIOS When we first started work on Fallout 76 three years ago, we knew you insufferable grognards would flip your shit. You've only been arguing about multiplayer in our games for more than a decade, after all. Well, we finally fucking did it. And yet, after the B.E.T.A. and all of the gameplay footage thats come out, you still cant wrap your minds around the concept of a multiplayer Fallout. You say in your little youtube videos that its a Rust clone, or that its a fucking Battle Royale game, or some other inane bullshit. As someone who has been repeatedly called a liar, Todd thinks your videos are fucking hilarious. But we know the truth. Its not that you're too stupid to understand Fallout 76. It's that you simply refuse to accept it. When Interplay finally ran itself into the ground, we took Fallout and transformed it into the most successful RPG franchise of all time — and you little shits were kicking and screaming the whole way. Every time we release a game, you ingrates shit all over it and cry that it's not a 'true" RPG. But as soon as we release a newer game for you to bitch about, the previous game is precious. Whenever we start a new project, we like to ask ourselves, "What do the fans want?" Well, you dont know what the fuck you want and you never did. But that's okay. We're used to it. Because, face it: You're going to eat this shit up anyway, like you always do. So go ahead. Play our game for 300 hours and then write a negative review claiming it has no content. Make your memes about how many times we re-release Skyrim, you'll fucking buy it again anyway. Accuse us of "raping the lore', even though you havent actually played the original games. Just like in our games, you can do whatever you want and none of it will ever matter. We own you. Bethesda Game Studios
