40 Mil across Stream, Windows 10, and Xbox. Healthy numbers for sure, but when PC is the biggest platform, I expected more. It’ll be interesting to see how it does on PlayStation. Very well could be double that player count in 6 months with PS too. It’s crazy for developers to skip the most popular platform, not sure why they’d want to, but they must have had their rea$ons.
If by “pulling out all the stops” you mean, “heavy micro transactions” then yes, they are ruining the game, But Ubisoft is certainly not the first company to pull this bs and they can ruin and put out a crap product if they want to, it’s theirs!
There’s a crazy notion floating around that consumers are somehow “owed” the entertainment and that these companies are “messing up” their games. What’s with this entitled consumer mindset? The devs don’t owe us a thing and we certa...
Still play the original and I’m dying to try this! There is no mention in article of a console release, you’re killing me Red Hook!
It is rare to get that Mario 64, graphically blown away, this-is-the-future feeling as a gamer anymore.
I do know the last couple times I did have close to this feeling. It was when RDR2 and GTA5 launched and this will be no different. The game will look better and be a more detailed world than anything else, that’s basically guaranteed.
Are we set up to be disappointed? Maybe, framerate junkies or those expected god-tier graphics may be disappointed. Fo...
Don’t worry they’ll sell you it again in a few years…and again…and again…
They could make it $100 and I’d still preorder.
Go work in a restaurant if you want to work for tips. You get no insurance and paid $5/hr.
How about you make something worth buying? He can blame constant video game sales if anything. Most Games are half price in just months.
Everyone knows games go on sale constantly, devs need to make and market properly and maybe we get excited enough to drop $70. I remember seeing WAY more game commercials back in the day. They don’t spend money marketing anymore an...
Returnal, Astro Bot, and Ratchet made having it since day one worth it.
GT7 free updates and Spiderman 2 and others at 60fps have made this last year more than okay.
But yeah, it’s been dry lately. BG3 and third party have made great filler, but we ready for that SOCOM or Killzone announcement and some more 1st party goodness. Crossing fingers for Ghost of Tsushima 2 announcement this summer.
Didn’t know Helldivers was exclusive! Wtf i...
Oh I get it you’re a troll. Being paid by M$ or not getting laid, or both.
M$ puts their games on Gamepass day one to sway you to not buy the game but rent the service, Sony doesn’t do this. It’s safe to buy their games day one.
Microsoft’s problem isn’t the “fanboys” it’s the fact that blind loyalists such as yourself don’t realize the “fanboys” are responding to how M$ has moved.
Wake me up when they release something noteworthy from ...
Same here, my backlog is full of 9/10 games.
More shovelware and MTX than ever. The greed is real and companies want that sweet cosmetics dlc cash from EVERY game, it’s disgusting.
But…BG3, Spidey2, Elden Ring, Flight Sim, GT7, Mario Wonder, Zelda, and VR! Holy shit VR is thriving too, yeah, hard to say gaming is struggling right now when there are gems out there worthy of your time and money.
In R* we trust.
Will it be as good as we all want it to be? No, it’ll be 30fps, lol.
But will it be the game we want it to be on PS6? Probably!
We are basically guaranteed to get the most detailed open world ever created, so there is that.
It is a conversation for some YouTuber or journalist though—that graphics are now on the precipice of being able to…create a response in the body, lol!
How real is too real or is there such a thing? And when you knock on that door and walk through it, what’s the next one look like?? Will we eventually see adult products in the industry and would it sell?
So much jiggle bring up many questions!
I get that and actually agree with you. Still, buying COD and Bethesda and Id is a little different than Guerilla or ND 15 years ago.
Plus, you are still Missing my point that Sony supports theirs while M$ does not.
Also, I lived through all of gaming history, I’m old! Bought Xbox in the past and probably will again, so yeah, that’s part of the reason I’m not supporting them now. They seem to not care about the day one product.
Young people need to stop caring about such trivial shit in the world and grow some thicker skin.
Being easily offended is the same as getting angry easily and a lack of control over one’s emotions is childish.
Freedom of speech allows for hateful speech too. It’s healthy to hear all sides and get outside you r own bubble, this is how we expand our understanding so maybe we don’t get so triggered next time.
Those snowflakes on Resetera ...
Former is the key word here, must be looking for job. Pretty glaring and obvious how bad it is over in that M$ games division when all the big wigs left after being acquired and now that they don’t work there they are quick to applaud the competition.
I’ve worked for Restaurants next to better ones, lemme tell ya, sure you get their overflow when they are busy, but you often look over walking in to work and wonder why you don’t just work there instead!
Difference is Sony has helped build those studios and put them all under one umbrella that gets their support.
M$ clearly does not support their acquisitions or want them to grow like Sony does with theirs. Studios have been built up under Sony’s guidance, whereas M$ bought already established third party in the industry and is leaving them hanging, blowing in the breeze, as evidenced by Redfall—that Nintendo seal of quality or Sony oversight is clearly lacking when even th...
I just want options, 30 fps is not unplayable or unacceptable, and you are right about GTA6, but that game will be re-released on the next two consoles and eventually be 60fps like gta5.
Hellblade 2 could have easily offered a performance mode, giving them the pass is laying down as a consumer.
Congrats Bethesda! Just let this baby ride out and let the sales and cash pile up. Surely there is no need to improve this gem of a game as tons of people are playing it and it’s a real system seller.
Wait, didn’t most of those millions of players access this game for free? Oh yeah, that little detail.
Author asks what’s the point but gushes on about how great the game is and can’t recommend playing it enough!
I get the disappointment that the second game isn’t being remade too, but again with this owed consumer mindset. It never was a guaranteed they were remaking the second game too. Be thankful this remake was worth playing and move on. Besides, rooting for more remasters and calling for another remake for a sequel we already played sounds like a waste of time I could ...
