pokmon, elderscrolls. but Persona trully got me back into rpgs, i love it cant put it down. its wha i look for in an rpg/jrpg fully. i do like harvest moon too. fallouts a good on, just nevr playd the older ones.

delmartian3882d ago

I think I spent as many hours on Harvest Moon 64 as I did on Diablo 2, which is definitely saying something.

Have you played Persona 4 for Vita?

PoSTedUP3882d ago

oh yes, its incredible, i still go back to P3:P too. golden is my favorite game on the vita, i spend so much time on that game there is so much to do. i like p3p's music a lil better tho. but p4g just did everything right.

Roccetarius3881d ago

Diablo had me hooked for a long time. Too bad Diablo 3 didn't live up to its previous master.

Blachek3881d ago

I played Diablo 2 for soo many years, and my brother continued to do so well after me.

I could have an absolute nerd fest talking about Diablo online lol

delmartian3881d ago

How bout those Baal runs

Blachek3881d ago

I remember silly little balance shifts that changed popular build types to introduction of runewords altering how people mf'ed and even dumb stuff like finding an etheral perfect templars might & upgrading it on ladder... the game was seriously incredible in the amount of variety you could find and the time you could dump into a character and your account.

An Update on This Year’s BlizzCon and Blizzard’s 2024 Live Events

Blizzard writes: "After careful consideration over the last year, we at Blizzard have made the decision not to hold BlizzCon in 2024. This decision was not made lightly as BlizzCon remains a very special event for all of us, and we know many of you look forward to it. While we’re approaching this year differently and as we have explored different event formats in the past, rest assured that we are just as excited as ever to bring BlizzCon back in future years."

Microsoft should have left them stay 3rd party

GamerRN1d 1h ago

If they are let go, they can be whatever they want. They ARE 3rd party now... 🤦

Barlos23h ago

Yeah, they're also jobless.

GamerRN16h ago

They can form a company if they want, they are just as jobless as if "Microsoft had left them as 3rd party".

"MIcrosoft leaves Bethesda do what they know how to do best" ... close! Oh the irony ....
(Citation from a week old article)

ChasterMies14h ago

I think Microsoft and other game publishers are letting people go because they think ai will replace them. Doesn’t matter how much profit they make. They were always going to be let go.

Bethesda France was made up of roughly 15 people... they couldn't of being doing much

Bethesda France mainly did publishing and marketing within the region

blacktiger1d 1h ago

that's a shame for you to say that, i'm sure Elite loves hearing what you just said.

Mr Logic11h ago

What a stupid thing to say. The elites give 0 fucks what we say on an obscure website in the comments section.

Crows9011h ago

You can always reach out and give them jobs at your company man. Don't wait

Profchaos1d 3h ago (Edited 1d 3h ago )

Bethesda France focused on publishing and marketing in the region. And 15 people lost their jobs as part of the closure.

I wonder if this is part of Microsoft's strategy to abandoned physical media or possibly gamepass advertising makes their roles redundant you don't need to market a game as hard when the majority of players get the game as part of a sub which already promoted upcoming games

Tacoboto1d 3h ago

It's France too, there's a high likelihood only 1-2 people on the team even had an Xbox.

Profchaos1d 3h ago

Possibly guven all the leaks we know the Xbox brand is really struggling in the region.

Yi-Long1d ago

Well, if your consoles and games are barely found in any stores any more, of course you're gonna struggle finding consumers ...

XiNatsuDragnel1d 2h ago

Tbh Microsoft I think Bethesda being 3rd party same with Activision would probably more competitive than thus scenario imo

Profchaos1d ago (Edited 1d ago )

I think it would have been better for all parties really especially gamers

TheColbertinator1d 1h ago

The recently purchased Activision French offices might take over all the licensing and marketing for Microsoft in France from now on.

I’m Glad Atlus & SE Changed Dates To Avoid Competing With Shadow Of The Erdtree

Saad from eXputer: "I'm glad I don't have to choose between Square Enix, Atlus, and FromSoftware due to bad release windows and Shadow of the Erdtree."

H91d 22h ago

More intelligent than guerilla games

raWfodog1d 4h ago (Edited 1d 4h ago )

Atlus is releasing their game one week before Erdtree, SE is releasing theirs one week after.

HZD released four days before Zelda, HFW released one week before Elden Ring.

It seems to me like they are still releasing their games too close to Erdtree.

VincentVanBro4h ago(Edited 4h ago)

What a word vomit, rambling, turd of an article that simply states the obvious. Classic exputer.
