For his segment this week on BJ Shea’s Geek Nation on KISW FM; Gareth at Skewed and Reviewed discusses Fallout 76 and DOOM Eternal news from Quakecon, and he Red Dead Redemption 2 Gameplay trailer.
GB: "After its disastrous launch all those years ago, many players are rediscovering Fallout 76 and how much it's improved."
INDIE Live Expo, Japan’s premiere online digital showcase series , will debut never-before-seen games & content updates across more than 100 titles on May 25th.
Fallout 76 fans are calling on Phil Spencer to aid in the development of the game. They want more map expansions and the ability to visit other areas of the USA.
Or maybe get a new single player Fallout game out so we aren’t waiting until the 2030s
Not gonna happen. Will probably be out 5-6 years after TesVI, which isn't coming anytime soon.
Even if they asked someone else to do a spin-off it would take atleast 5 years from now, if we assume they haven't begun allready. It's weird they didn't atleast attempt to have a game ready for the series launch.
I heard Microsoft are quite rich. They should spin BGS off into 3 separate full size studios. Then rotate their big 3 ip's between them. So staff don't get bored. Or rotate staff.
Minimum, they need to increase the size of Todd Howards existing team. Like, double at least.
Bethesda is busy with Starfield and then Elder Scrolls 6.
The only other studios that I would trust with Fallout are Obsidian and InXile.
But InXile is busy with Clockwork Revolution and another game that hasn't been announced. Obsidian is busy with Avowed and then they'll do Outerworlds 2.
They'd have to have one of them drop their next project for Fallout. Which imo is not cool. Unless they are willing to do so themselves. Obsidian has expressed interest in Fallout though so who knows.
Didn't Obsidian at some point state that they were more interested in Outer Worlds than returning to Fallout? And now Avowed is basically their Morrowind set in their own universe. I don't see them returning unless forced, which would probably lead to poor results.
What, they want the game to be delayed a year and then still release in a half baked state?
Indeed.
Phil "Crackdown 2 is shaping up very well" Spencer doesn't exactly have a finger on the pulse. Frankly, I'm not convinced he believes in the pulse.
Let the studios figure it out.
And what exactly are they expecting Phil to do? This man greenlit Redfall. Let that sink in.....He allowed Redfall to release in that state for 70 Dollars.
He didn't greenlight Red Fall. Zenimax did. He could have delayed or cancelled it, but didn't. But then again, they were probably pretty far into the development when he arrived at the scene.
