Sony wonders why it sold 10 million PlayStation 4 units worldwide. It’s clear to us: That amount was sold due to positive word-of-mouth, plain and simple.
Disney Dreamlight Valley devs have officially teased the second part of the paid expansion titled The Spark of Imagination.

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.
I disagree. Part of these games is the support for the mod community. If they move to releasing a "next game" every 2 or 3 years, the modding support plummets and the franchises turn into just another run of the mill RPG.
Make the games good enough to withstand the test of time, to keep people coming back to them and expanding on them with mod support.
Yeah, let's all advocate for smaller gaps between series' releases, then we'll probably get headlines about how the series have dropped in quality and they could have benefited from more time in the oven. Let them cook.
Bethesda [or Microsoft] would have to reallocate internal and external studios towards fallout and elder scrolls titles. Bethesda has the issue of developing 2 big IPs that are large RPGs on rotation. If you want more Fallout and Elder Scrolls, development will have to be outsourced.
well to be honest, they got an amazing first impression at E3, they literately kicked butt at the show
......but is the 5 million gap between X1 and ps4 reflect the reality of quality between the two systems?? no way, that just show you the importance of nailing first impression
i used to say first impression stuff is BS but psychologists are right
i expect Xbox one sales to get a major boost this year due to more exclusives and the master chief collection
that's right you just keep telling yourself that
I can see the reasoning but hype is a product of other reasons not a reasons in itself. The last generation went on for a long time which added to the hype for a next generation system but why the PS4 is unusual is because of careful planning and a correct price point. It is cheaper than the Xbox One and the third party issue of them, generally, performing better on the PS4 made hype. Then the launch went off with little to no issues which the Wii U and the One stumbled last year. These generated the hype and in particular for the PS4.
If people are regretting on buying a Next Gen Console and are complaining that there are no games, that is your fault on buying the system, you could have waited, simple as,
I know this gen is going to be great, some of my favorite games are getting sequels and new IP's are showing up, its an exciting time to be a gamer.
The games will come, compare last gen consoles Launch til now and you will see a great difference.
It is not that complex. The PlayStation Brand always had a stronger global following. It is outselling the Xbox One at about the same rate as the PS3 is now outselling the Xbox 360. And it was outselling the 360 for years now. What we are seeing is a good marketing push, combined with the status quo.
