I know there’s great love for Oblivion (I never played it when it was new), and of course Skyrim is the gold standard for new fans (I played the shit out of that and it was my first entry into the elder scrolls back when it came out 14 years ago…) but I really feel like this shadow drop of a half assed remake is just priming everyone to lower their expectations for the likely dumpster fire that is The Elder Scrolls VI.
I know its old hat nonsense of a complaint but whatever Bethesda used to be it stopped being that 20 years ago and we’re all just stuck thinking they’ll put out some new masterpiece when in reality all the talent they had back in the day has likely left for other jobs and they are now just a shitty company among countless other shitty companies putting profit over anything else and stifling anyone who might actually have good ideas on how to make good games (how unsurprising).
Imagine if capital G Gamers actually enjoyed playing games instead of nonstop bitching on online forums.
As someone with no kids and a work/life balance that allows me to enjoy video games, I wonder how much of this vitriol comes from bitter millennials who are mad at the world because they don’t have time to play games anymore.
Nah. The millennials would need to play and beat the game and then come to online forums to bitch. We don’t have that amount of free time.
They are nearly always Zoomers and younger. (Or college kids and teenagers if I’m getting the generations wrong again)
Lol 9 times out of 10, they don’t actually play the games they whine about.
the internet would fall silent.
