Today's divisive comment comes from Forza 7 Software Architect, Chris Tector.
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
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
Tbh Microsoft I think Bethesda being 3rd party same with Activision would probably more competitive than thus scenario imo
The recently purchased Activision French offices might take over all the licensing and marketing for Microsoft in France from now on.
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."
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
lol multi-thousand? Our deluded Microsoft comment of the day.
Sure 500$ won't get you a full PC but if you're smart you use an existing PC, buy a 300$ GPU, check for bottlenecks that you need to upgrade and you've outdone the BEAST with the same money. Not only that but you:
- have a system with a 10x bigger games library
- save the monthly XBL subscription
- save more because PC games are cheaper
- have ALL games in 4k / whatever FPS you prefer without the need for patches
- an actual all-in-one solution for your home entertainment if you just hook it up to a TV
But if you're really, really smart (like, Microsoft-"smart") you just wait until Volta comes out (GDDR6 Memory, HBM2) in the next few months and GPU prices drop to a level where Scorpio seems like a bad joke.
lol This is so obviously an incorrect statement. This is plainly just false advertising. It's basically $275 RX580 (6tf) paired with a $50 Jaguar CPU. A multi thousand dollar CPU is basically a dual Geforce 1080ti's that's pushing 25TF
I can understand trying to hype up your products but this is just a lie.
Wouldn't be suprised if it took a $1500-2000 pc to get 4k at 60fps on this, using brand new components.
A multi-thousand dollar PC will run rings around every console.
Seems right on target. Digital Foundry had this to say and it was overlooked :

"We put together a comparison on Nürburgring track on both sides. Weather conditions are not exactly match for match. But you can see in terms of visual quality we were running on a Titan X to get these results on pc and to have this on a console is incredible"
Pretty crazy to be honest.
People on here being armchair analysis to what turn10 is saying need to pump there breaks.
Digital Foundry has spoken.
