As part of its plans to cut 1,900 jobs, Microsoft has reportedly shut down operations at Bethesda France, letting go roughly 15 people
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
that's a shame for you to say that, i'm sure Elite loves hearing what you just said.
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
It's France too, there's a high likelihood only 1-2 people on the team even had an Xbox.
Tbh Microsoft I think Bethesda being 3rd party same with Activision would probably more competitive than thus scenario imo
I think it would have been better for all parties really especially gamers
The recently purchased Activision French offices might take over all the licensing and marketing for Microsoft in France from now on.
Sony has recently published a new patent that wants to dynamically handle the games' difficulty and gameplay based on the player's emotions.
This is something I might use. Sometimes I play some good games but they don’t have difficulty option and are a little too easy.
cool idea
cool idea for horror games especially
the way it's explained here sounds like it could never be forced hopefully, so that's ok with me

Its not really a case of being shafted by nVidia or not, they aren't represented in this country, hence no way to really do so, so what other remedies would there be?
sucks that only people in the US are eligible. I bought a computer during that time period so thus would qualify in theory. But because I reside in Canada, I get diddly squat.
PC gamers get shafted all over the place.
- High hardware costs
- Few games that utilise the hardware
- Shoddy console ports
- Stagnated gaming scene with counterstrike still probably the most played fps on the platform
- Massive DRM, spyware, malware watching every keystroke you make, every website you visit, everything else you do
- Poor consumer support
- Imbalanced hardware between players, making gaming imbalanced
- Zero decent exclusives since Far Cry
Man, the list just goes on and on and on.....
