Starfield-E3

After two and a half decades of Fallout and The Elder Scrolls, Bethesda is finally ready to invest in a new franchise of their own. While not much was shown or even revealed, that new chapter was given a name: Starfield. It’s a bold new chapter for the company, that’ll take players to the furthest reaches of space and beyond in a new single-player story that happens to be sent in a bold new universe.

    This is why they keep releasing Skyrim on every device possible: to make money so that they can make awesome looking games like this.

        Bethesda’s track record speaks for itself. Way more hits than misses.
        I’m going to assume this is going to be awesome, despite any naysing I may encounter.

          Yeah but justifying something that a lot of people are not happy with (re-releasing of skyrim) with something that you assume is awesome, makes your argument seem a bit wonky. But I am sure it will be a hit as well.

            Bethesda ain’t stupid. And I’m also quite certain that they were fully aware of people’s reactions to them constantly releasing Skyrim.
            But who did most of that moaning? People who already had the game on their platform of choice.
            Like, when Skyrim was released on the Switch, I’m pretty sure there were quite a few Switch owners who were happy.
            Yes, I am playing devil’s advocate here, because from a purely business POV, I can understand why Bethesda did it. Releasing a new IP can be a costly thing and if it fails, even more so. Bethesda was making certain that they’d be okay in either eventuality.

            Yeah and I agree with you, except where you point to an empty video claiming it is awesome looking. I understand why they did it and think it was very smart. It added more fuel in the tank for them to make new IP, But remember this is new IP, and a new type of gameplay as well. That is why I think claiming a pretty empty video of an upcoming game is awesome, Might be a bit too soon. But I agree they were making the best move. Now let us wait and see how it panned out for them, when they release an actual video showing what this is, before we claim it is awesome.

            I prefer to be like Monty Python and always look on the bright side of life. It’s going to be awesome, we’re all going to love it.
            no more naysaying now, it’s unbecoming.
