Fallout 4 Pre-Announcement Bullshit Thread [GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Jaesun]

The dragons are what made Skyrim sell so well (as well as the beautiful hiking scenery).

 

[Curious_Tongue]

Those were both released in 2011, there's absolutely no way DA2's release influenced anything regarding Skryim.

I doubt DA2's reception influenced Skyrim

Maybe not, but I'm sure they're aware of the increasing risk of backlash from fans who feel slighted.

Dragons flying backwards and lack of DLCs ruin the immersion. Max Payne 3 is where it's at.

 

[DalekFlay]

As simplified and mass-market as Bethesda games are you'll still catch me playing them over almost any other modern mass-market game. Think of them as king of the shitmonsters.

I doubt DA2's reception influenced Skyrim, but half a year is enough time to change some stuff around I'd say.

Unless they're slam dunking like Obsidian, they should be focused entirely on polishing content/fixing bugs with that much time left. Not adding anything.

An open world game without much tight scripting is easier to change. Remember Bethesda's own "Game Jam"?

And they said the reason they couldn't include those features in the game was because of all the additional testing they would require.

 

[Rahdulan]

Yes, god forbid Bethesda tests something properly. Ask PS3 players how they feel about it.

*Feels no pity for people who buy a game like Skyrim on the PS3*

Skyrim only sold really well because all soul brothas out there who love NBA and Madden thought it was a basketball game.

 

[Psquit]

fuck bethesda bring me some obsidian pls, at least they know how to make arguments.

In all honesty it sold well because Oblivion was perfectly timed for big sales and Skyrim was the sequel to it. Fallout 3 sold well because "the people who made Oblivion are bringing you the same thing with guns and cool armor."

So much of sales is right place and right time, build a reputation, sell that reputation.

Screw the idea. Bethesda needs to move on. Enough Fallout, try something new.

Key word: buy.

A new IP? That'd be a first since, heh, 1994.

I actually bought that.A shit game, but I played it for almost 95 hours total, so I can't say I wasted it.

Reckon BGS could handle developing three IPs?

 

[Turisas]

Easier if they just bought one. Who owns Arcanum these days?

 

[ohWOW]

Arcanum 2 on shitty gamebryo and it will be in fact Oblivion 5.

Bobby Gnome-tick.

Sequel to FO3?

Shit begets shit.

 

[Black]

Oh yeah, gotta fight the good fight some more.

 

[Turisas]

I thought Three-Dog died in FO3.

 

[Lancehead]

One can only imagine what they'll do with the game in order to sell Skyrim numbers.

 

[TheEntitledOne]

Cloned by aliens.
