Waiting a decade for new instalments in franchises as massive as Fallout and Elder Scrolls feels like a waste.
Microsoft have Obsidian but I feel it's Bethesda who just don't want to play ball as they've always said they want to do it themselves.
Once MS bought Zenimax in 2020 they should have put the Outer Worlds 2 on the back burner, allow Bethesda to finish off its own Space RPG with Starfield (despite totally different tone why have two in your first party portfolio with two developers who's gameplay is a tad similar) and got Obsidian for one of their projects to make a spiritual successor to New Vegas.
When the Elder Scrolls VI is finished Bethesda can then onto the main numbered Fallout 5 themselves.
The Outer Worlds 2 started development in 2019 so putting it on the back burner wouldn't have been the end of the world, they'd have always come back to it once Fallout was done and it would have been nicely spaced out from Starfields release once they had most likely stopped supporting it and all the expansions were released.
If they did this back in 2020 when they bought Zenimax and the game had a good, steady 4 - 5 years development, you might have seen it release in 2025.
We are literally going to be waiting until 2030 at the very earliest for Fallout 5 and all they seem bothered about is pushing Fallout 76.
"The Vancouver-based (Canada) indie games developer Blinkmoon Games are today very happy and proud to announce that their dark fantasy bullet heaven "Necromantic", is coming to PC via Steam Early Access in 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Athenian Rhapsody is a JRPG with a difference: alongside turn-based combat & exploration, you'll need to complete WarioWare-style microgames.
The legend of dragoon isnt even in there , it deserves to be in the top 10
Horrible list. They had Star Wars the old republic (mmo) over final fantasy x? The old republic doesn't belong anywhere near the top 50 RPGs of all time.
Don't agree with some of the placement.But overall it is a well done list.
Just because you don't agree doesnt mean it's a bad list, he gave his reasons for each one and for the most part they are legitimate. Top xx list are subjective, no matter what not everyone will agree.
I'd have loved to see FF8 up in the top, that game is truly spectacular.
My favorite genre by far, if Skyrim, oblivion , fallout 3, fallout new Vegas, ni no kuni, Gba Pokemon games, legacy of goku/buus furry, dark/demon souls, ff 7-10, borderlands, all arnt on this list then it is a fail IMO.
Saw FFX in 47th place and closed the page.
