Starfield IMO should have leaned into the multiverse stuff earlier - reduce the scope of MSQ/systems, let the player experience the "base story", then you start jumping to alternate universes that range between "what if?" scenarios to show deviations from the base story to completely off the wall shit. Eventually you have to figure out connections between universes which allows you to access the final nexis point.

That would have actually been pretty neat.

They will fuck this up more than they will fuck up ES6.

No one at Bethesda has the talent any longer and unless they get off renamed versions of Gamebryo nothing new will come out of the IP that we haven't already seen.

Add Gamepass as an access point to the game and we will see shoveled shitware.

Bethesda is dead.

Pretty much. Can't even get excited at something like this anymore.

Well, at least they're making more FO games instead of diverting all that attention to an MMO like what happened with the ES series. Then again maybe I should appreciate the existence of ES Online because it's probably the only way I will ever actually get to see Valenwood, Elsweyr, Summerset Isles, Black Marsh, and Morrowind 2 (the south half) at this point.

Please no settlements and crafting bullshit. Please.

That's what killed my Fallout 4 platinum run. The one major game ever where I went for 100% and failed to reach it at the end. I got the platinum itself but I ended up at like 91%, with a bunch of Nuka-World content and crafting/settlement bullshit holding me back. I think the Nuka-World content was glitched or something because the objective markers had me going in circles. It was all so annoying that I couldn't deal with it anymore and uninstalled the game. Tried again later and gave up again. Pisses me off because when I set out to platinum something, I platinum it, but FO4 successfully drove me off at the 11th hour. It cured my OCD, at least.

Still have Fallout 2 unplayed from this series and it's one of the 3 things on my retro CRPG list for January. I think I'll just live in the past and be fine with that.

Fallout 2 was the best. I miss the nitty-gritty darkness of the early fallout universe, it has since devolved into a cartoon.

bethesda needs to clean house and hire just an entirely fresh batch of internet trolls from 8chan to write it. i don't even trust obsidian or inixile to write it well. bethesda's habit of just having a barely sufficient main quest and window dressing side content is sad. I'd rather let grok go wild with no one from bethesda even validating it.

Sort of Obsidian's fault for taking things so far in that direction with New Vegas, particularly Old World Blues which was hysterical, but they knew how to balance the silly with the serious. Honest Hearts and Lonesome Road weren't comedy acts in the slightest.

Now Fallout is just a poor imitation of the humor style of Old World Blues.
