In a move that will probably shock nobody, Bethesda has started hiring for what seems to be another RPG. - PSLS
The Fallout and Elder Scrolls developer is a union shop now.
That's good to see. For the last 5-10 years every spring the gaming industry has seen mass layoffs after reporting record profits. It's disgusting. This industry needs more unionization to offer some protection to the people who make these games possible.
that's the price you pay to conduct your business in the land of the free. Stuff like that doesn't happen over here
Unions are rarely if ever good for the consumer. Often good for the worker but not for us consumers.
Yes, consumers no longer benefit from overworked and underpaid labor, aka decrease in overhead that allows them to sell goods made at a lower price. Kind of the reason things are made in China rather than the U.S. Well thought out.
But, now hear me out, what if the 'good to see' comment wasn't about being a consumer but a caring, apathetic fellow human being who wants to see people get paid what they're worth and not just get laid off all willy-nilly when the suits need to make their books look good for the FY reporting and make more money for shareholders who don't do any of the work either?
It's too late for Tango and Arkane Austin but fingers crossed that this will help. MS could have a friend in the White House soon though, and his thoughts on Union's should be worrying all in the US.
GOOD. Stop taking it in the ass from shareholders "we want a space game" but our fans want elderscrolls "YES BUT SPACE IS HUGE LOOK AT STAR CITIZEN!"
Multiple games are currently in development at Bethesda Game Studios' id Software, based on the latest information.
I’d love another Quake, maybe even a more horror slanted Doom.
I’d be very happy with a new IP though.
I would like a wolfstein reboot by Id, machinegames ones are good but too enfatuated with cinematics
Bethesda Game Studios' Montreal office is filing for unionization with the Quebec Labor Board.
The whole west end market needs any and all bullshit related to gamergate, sweetbaby Inc and the erosion of agenda built titles. Sony needs to be back in Japan and stop ruining what has been established. The forced multi-player shit in single player games needs to die immediately.
True. Saw sony just laid off 250. It's a business wide issue. Unfortunate but glad to see MS isn't standing in the way of unions.
They won't stand in the way. They will let them in, but people won't have jobs because of it...Let's make a bet.
Fallout!
I'll wait for the Bug of the Year edition next time.
wouldn't want them to do anything less!!
skyrim is near perfection on pc, oblivion and marrowind are masterpieces imo!
Bethesda could learn a thing or two from CDProjekt and Witcher 2.
It will be fallout 4, the perfect game to launch with. I cannot wait to see a next gen open world. I just hope that the gameplay gets some tweeking. It could use it. But, i am psyched. Fallout 3 remains one of my fav games. I remember the night i first played it very well. Its one of the very rare games that makes a huge impact on the gamer, unforgettable and highly addictive.
