After London they should create their own version of a fallout game and release it so ps5 players aren't left out, since Sony clearly doesn't care if ps5 have any wrpgs. Sony never did anything after ms bought up the western rpg market.

anast109d ago

Bethesda and Obsidian are running on fumes. There is enough quality WRPGs to go around.

k2d108d ago

Such a golden IP, but Bethesda is technically and creatively bankrot.

shinoff2183108d ago (Edited 108d ago )

Naw I don't think there really is. Some might not be but even with bethsada dumbing down fallout 4 I still really enjoyed it. I just love the lore(something starfield was missing) and whatnot. So there might be plenty out there to you but I see that far from the truth. Sony dropped the ball on rpgs(1st party). A reason alot of us roll with sony.

anast108d ago

@Shin

The RPGS have to be 1st party...Who has rolled with Sony because of their history making banger 1st party WRPGs? No one, because they haven't been known as the #1 exclusive maker of WRPGs. Sony releases quality Action Adventures, ARPGs like Bloodborne, Survival Horror, and JRPGs. I would guess most people buy Sony for the Action Adventure stuff in the west, not deep WRPGs.

Sony gamers will still get award winning 3rd party RPGs and MS well...they get an empty Bethesda and Obsidian. Avowed looks like a serious throwback and not in a good way, and ES6 will be a loading screen for modders.

@anast

I'm talking rpgs in general if I meant wrpg idda put a w on it. You took what you wanted to take and where I said rpg you said wrpg not me. Jrpg is my favorite but I'd take anything at this point from Sony. They gave up on jrpgs, and I'm aware they've not had any wrpg but it's a genre they could try. That's why I said rpg, because I know they don't have any wrpg. I've Rolled with sony since ps1 due to their RPGs offered not just first party but 3rd as well. Far as what I said about the wrpg market idk how else to say it ms bought up so much of those developers and sony sat on their thumbs. They bought bungie, fking yay

Just saying it wouldn't hurt sony to try a different genre these days. I stick with ps cause the Japanese support it gets with jrpgs, not sonys first party. Last of us, horizon, ratchet, I really enjoyed. Gow, Spiderman aren't my type of games. Spiderman was cool for a few hours but I'm super heroed out. Gow I was never really into so i cant really judge it. I'm not saying those are bad games at all. Returnal was alright but I liked dead Nation better (I think same dev). I'm also not expecting every game sony makes to be tailored to me hence I wont knock their first party that I'm not into.

And your right avowed looks bad. It looks like a game ms forced obsidian to do.

-Foxtrot109d ago

It looks super good but the sad thing is this kind of squashes any small chance we had of Bethesda or Obsidian doing a London based game now.

anast109d ago

I wouldn't want Bethesda touching anything.

mastershredder108d ago

The Location sounds interesting, but it does not belong in Fallout Lore. It's not about the UK and never was. Thanks, Me-too fan-hard-modders, but no thanks.

Fallout 4's 'next gen' update is over 14 gigs, breaks modded saves, & doesn't change much at all

We were expecting problems with mod support, but there are a lot of other issues.

isarai1d 16h ago

Wow what the actual hell 🤣🤣🤣

just_looken1d 15h ago

This is why you get the GOG version on gog you can select the version of the game to download.

On pc fallout 4 fallout new vegas and skyrim are all broken on steam because they all got the same "next gen" update.

Skyrim dec 2023
https://www.pcgamer.com/sky...

Can not find new vegas but anyone that modded it knows the script extender there was also broken

GamerRN14h ago

The amount of shade that gets thrown at Microsoft! This is a free next Gen upgrade that bumps up visuals quite a bit, and it's free! Not $10 like some companies...

Jesus, it's getting thick in here...

Valkyrye1d 14h ago

Not accidental, they want modders to stop modding their older games to force them to mod Shitfield.

just_looken1d 12h ago

There doing the same on starfield with a mods store and blocking mods

There goal is like blizzard and what they did with fallout 76 you make mods they can sell and you become a slave.

On skyrim they have "trusted" mod devs now basically a badge that lets your mod on the store you get a crumb of the sale when someone buys it.

GamerRN20h ago

The mods aren't broken, just modded saves

Michiel198920h ago

@gamerRN shhhh don't tell them, if you do they can't mindlessly hate a company when they're so uninformed anymore

MaximusTKG19h ago

My modded save is working fine. Perhaps it’s not a blanket issue.

Inverno1d 10h ago

lol to the disagrees, the last Skyrim update broke mods too. They've been trying to kill mods to monetize them in creation club for years, it's not a stretch that they purposely put out patches just to break free mods.

porkChop1d 9h ago

The disagrees are from people who have common sense. They aren't trying to kill mods. Most mods for any game will break with a new update because they rely on files/code that have been changed. This isn't new. Even with Bethesda this would happen way before the creation club. Mod support is literally one of the things that got Bethesda to where they are, and they're one of the only devs that releases comprehensive mod tools for each of their games.

Sirch23h ago

This is business 101.

These are massive companies who are here to make money, not please us gamers. They will charge whatever the market will bare, and will monetize everything they can until gamers stop buying.

People need to wake up and smell the capitalism that has come to gaming. They aren’t here for us any more, they are here for their profits.

just_looken13h ago

Thank you inverno it seems even after starfield there are still thousands that will do anything todd says and gives free blowjobs to team B.

Anyone with a working brain and a pc knows the on going war that is modding fallout/skyrim there dam paid mod store along with forced updates has done more harm than good.

For those that are like but update break mods all the time have never modded a unreal/unity game it takes a large update to break those games were as a simple 30-100mb skyrim updates kills the game except those paid mods.

But fallout 76 has a high player count and is considered by many of the new "gamers" a GOAT game so that says it all.

Armaggedon14h ago

Why do we keep bringing starfield into this. Purge the wrongful hate from yourself

just_looken13h ago(Edited 13h ago)

Because it still has the same framerate as fallout 3 on a xbox 360 with the same resolution 6 months later we still have only gotten a photo mode and every update there has been killing all mods but a paid mod store is on the horizon.

Fix starfield? na fuck that take this $40 blue skin mod bitch

If you read before the game was live you would see that said before and after official mod support on the way you can make your own planet but like i said 6 months later nothing has been added.

Starfield the biggest budget biggest team but smallest amount of content the most censorship the most control over the community including auto steam review reply with auto delete and exclusive to windows os with the same performance of 2005 hardware.

Armaggedon12h ago

There are plenty of articles and videos for you to go and be wrathful towards starfield… but this one aint it. This is a fallout 4 article.😂

Chocoburger1d 10h ago

Over 14 GBs and doesn't change much at all? What? Taking up that much drive space for a pathetic 'remastering' is shameful.

Par for Bethesda.

Aussiesummer1d 9h ago

It's not a remaster, it's a next gen update.

GamerRN20h ago

It actually bumps the settings up to ultra, 1440p 60fps. Added some new content. And it's free. That's a great upgrade to me...

badz1491d 8h ago

LOL people are actually expecting massive improvements or something? From Bethesda?? the same people who released Skyrim multiple times and the all look like shit? THAT Bethesda? are people for real?

Profchaos1d 8h ago (Edited 1d 8h ago )

The ps5 version doesn't change a ton but from my small playtime it's enough to make me want to replay it just to have it running at 60.

A side note to this my PS4 version no longer boots after it's "update" so I guess that's what it feels like to own a Bethesda game on PC

1nsomniac20h ago

My ps4 version boots fine after the update. It flashed up some long message about the ps5 version when I got in to the game menu but as soon as it appeared the message disappeared so I couldn’t read it. But the game loaded in and I was able to play.

just_looken13h ago

Its a psplus deal with licenses they already went opps we hit wrong button we sorry.

Bethesda Looking Into PlayStation Plus Subscribers Not Being Able to Upgrade Fallout 4

Bethesda Customer Support Manager confirmed they're looking into Fallout 4 not being offered to those who redeemed via PlayStation Plus for free.

Why would anyone downvote this? Don't be silly. This is great news. Thanks for sharing, darthv72.

MWeaver5891d 14h ago

I think it's because the main question for many was whether or not the PlayStation Plus Collection version would support the upgrade. To me it seems obvious the PlayStation Plus Extra version would, though it is nice to see confirmation it will.

That said, Bethesda highlighting the PlayStation Plus Extra version low-key confirms they do not plan on upgrading the other version given to players. Naturally some people are pissed, as even the in-game phrasing says "free for all players."

VenomUK1d 13h ago

@MWeaver589 Exactly this point, it was advertised as free for everyone.

VincentVanBro1d 12h ago (Edited 1d 12h ago )

It’s just a lame solution to the problem, even if it is a solution. The comment shouldn’t be downvoted though.

Christopher1d 12h ago

I mean, it's at least something. It's 'good' news compared to the alternative. Not darth's fault even.

Also, I highly believe this will get fixed. PR nightmare if they don't since the PS store doesn't differentiate/have different text for those with or without the PS+/PS Collection version.

Even though I claimed the PS Plus version, I still have my physical GOTY PS4 edition and was able to get my PS5 upgrade a little earlier today. Physical media FTW lol. Hopefully it won't be too long before the PS Plus owners also get to upgrade their copies.

JackBNimble1d 13h ago

My digital version works just fine , what's your point?

raWfodog1d 13h ago

My point is that even though I claimed the digital version via my PS+ Essential sub, I was still able to upgrade to the PS5 version using my PS4 GOTY physical version that I bought years ago. Otherwise I would have had to wait for the fix to be released, however long that will take. Isn’t that what the article was about?

JackBNimble1d 7h ago (Edited 1d 7h ago )

No, you claimed an upgrade that everyone with the physical or digital license can other then ps+ extra .
And what you hold is nothing more then a physical license.

And the article is talking about people with ps+extra who didn't own the game previously to it going on ps+ .

I bought the game years ago to ... digitally, my whole point was to your statement " physical media Ftw" . So what does physical have to do with anything?

raWfodog13h ago(Edited 13h ago)

Dude, the comment about physical ftw was supposed to be funny. Did you miss the ‘lol’ after it? That was an issue specific to my case and wasn’t meant to be taken as a stance on physical vs digital. The problem with these forums is that everyone takes everything too seriously lol.

FYI I have bought more digital games than physical over the past five years so I’m good with either format.

k2d1d 2h ago

Should have looked into the 75% deal before the update, but I just assumed I owned it. Thankfully I found the physical disc, ha...

raWfodog13h ago(Edited 12h ago)

But wait! Listen to the dude who also commented above. You can’t be thankful that you found the physical because you don’t actually own it LOL, and you can’t be thankful that you didn’t have to wait for them to fix the issue with the PS+ version. So what was your point? 🤣😁

blacktiger1d 11h ago

I expect this and also no releasing on next ps console. Pretty simple. Please don't be suprise

purple1011d ago (Edited 1d ago )

More like not releasing on next Xbox, all games sell better on ps due to 1 more consoles in the wild, &, 2 ps players buy more games. The fallout games take a long time to make I assume, probably want to make a good profit on that development time

Literally yesterday “Chairman And CEO Microsoft Satya Nadella:

"We committed to meeting players where they are by brining great games to more people on more devices."

anast18h ago

They don't need to. They have shill game writers trying to point people to the $35 version...yeah, let that sink in.
