Not really. As much as I've enjoyed Bethesda and Obsidian's output over the years, they've never made any platform "The RPG platform", so I don't see why that changes now.
I’m not saying what is better or not because that’s highly subjective but it being a remake of game doesn’t mean much especially if it’s not just a graphical remake.It's a remake of a PS3 game.
So now Western RPG is trash, only JRPG matters. Got it.
Obsidian doesn't have the best track record lately and Fable? Was there an actual good game in that series? Starfield we know nothing about. For me the only really exciting one is Elder Scrolls. Assuming it comes out in the next 4 years.
Wishful thinking. If you want those games it's highly likely you will need either an Xbox or a decent gaming PC.
You are saying fable is coming to ps5? Really?
they are coming to PC, yes. So not only Xbox. But not PS5. Stop dreaming.
Timed exclusive on your own I.P... That is a new one.Fallout 5 PS5
Elder Scrolls 6 Timed exclusive
Ok? So why are you so concerned about these games not being on Playstation then?I already have a high-end PC
soon to be higher once i see 3090 benchmarks

I don't want to cheerlead this acquisition, but I don't see them releasing multi-plat once the current contracts are finished.
I have a feeling that Microsoft are where they want to be studio and I.P wise. In 3 yrs they will be in a position to be releasing regular new games on GP every 3 to 4 months and should be able to put an RPG a year to. Making GP into something pretty much unmissable.
Microsoft near their end game

Benchmarks are already out for the 3090. 10% better performance than the 3080 on average. Absolutely not worth it.
They want to push gamepass exclusives do that. This deal will sell series consoles and gamepass but only if the games are exclusive. Gamespass subscriptions are console gamers. Playstation gamers been saying exclusives sell consoles how long now?$7.5b is going to take a long, long time to recoup if they restrict sales to just PC/Xbox. Bear in mind that's just the cost of ownership, they now have all its running costs going forwards which with 6+ sites and 2300 employees on payroll is millions in burn-rate per month.
This is true but on the other hand, potentially back to being the shooter machine.
Halo
Quake
Doom
The holy trinity of shooters.
The 'hope' is palpable. Maybe THIS time!
FF16?
I dont see why. Those are very healthy IP's with existing long sales legs on PC/xbox.Fable no.
Fallout doom elder scrolls etc yes
Western RPG is trash because AD&D is trash.
Fable no.
Fallout doom elder scrolls etc yes
Not gonna happen. You don't spend 7.5 Billion dollars on ip to give it away.Fable no.
Fallout doom elder scrolls etc yes
Not gonna happen. You don't spend 7.5 Billion dollars on ip to give it away.
They spent 2.5 billion on just Minecraft, and they're giving that away.Not gonna happen. You don't spend 7.5 Billion dollars on ip to give it away.
Who told you that?
Fallout 1 / 2 DEFINITEVE EDITION treatment would be something else. I would flip out.PC has always been and will be THE platform for western RPG.
For example, you cannot play Fallout 2 on any Xbox.
Been like that for years now. I mean who's really excited after Fallout 4 and Outer Wilds aka The Ellen Degeneres haircut game?So now Western RPG is trash, only JRPG matters. Got it.
Minecraft had already established itself on every platform and would've cost them big time to take it away, it doesn't count.They spent 2.5 billion on just Minecraft, and they're giving that away.
Elder Scrolls has been on Sony consoles since Oblivion and not releasing a new entry on PS5 would make Microsoft miss out on a lot of money. Same difference.Minecraft had already established itself on every platform and would've cost them big time to take it away, it doesn't count.
I don't see Sony not fighting for the western RPG genre. Larian Studios is a logical acquisition.
I will revisit this topic in 2022.
No, the hell its not. That's like saying Sony and Nintendo should release their games on Xbox because they'd make more money that way. Exclusives are what makes a platform viable its the reason why MS would buy a studio like this at all. Those old Elder scrolls games won't be pulled off the playstation store.Elder Scrolls has been on Sony consoles since Oblivion and not releasing a new entry on PS5 would make Microsoft miss out on a lot of money. Same difference.
it rates higher than the silence you offer as proof.I read it. If you want to take that as some kind of confirmation so be it. I don't. Especially from someone who isn't calling the shots anymore.
They're gonna keep the Bethesda stuff to themselves and PC. If MS was that friendly you'd be playing Halo on your PS4 right now.it rates higher than the silence you offer as proof.
Those are completely different scenarios. I can play Minecraft on Ps4 though.They're gonna keep the Bethesda stuff to themselves and PC. If MS was that friendly you'd be playing Halo on your PS4 right now.
