Nintendo might have just dropped a major tease for Animal Crossing fans with the latest Splatoon 2 update, while a Senior Analyst At SMBC Nikko Is Predicting Pokemon, Smash Bros. & Animal Crossing Switch News Around March.
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.
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."
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.
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
"According to the analyst Pokemon, Smash Bros and Animal Crossing Switch are going to be announced in March."
Makes sense being they will meet with investors for their year end and would want them to be excited for 2018.
Please lord let this be true. I love the main AC games but they’ve really got to step it up
Animal Crossing is one of those games I always get hyped up but during that hype I think they’ll add feature X, Y and Z only for them hardly adding to it. I mean let’s be honest the Mayor thing should have been in City Folk...but even in New Leaf you feel you don’t have much power or control over your town. Move a house, remove a rock, deny/approve new residents, make it so your best animal friends who you talk to a lot don’t randomly leave (like a happiness bar), let us sculpt the town more by changing rivers or removing them...and so on.
So many things they can add but they don’t
