This guy does retro gaming (surprisingly most of them are blind play-throughs). Dude never played classic Doom until this video series.

Crowbcat's back. Codex doesn't like this popamole shooter, but this video just highlights the incompetence of both Microsoft's leadership and their studios. 343 must be the worst AAA developer right now, even with such stiff competition. I don't expect Obsidian, inXile, or Bethesda to get any better under their leadership. Hope I'm wrong, though. But it's doubtful.

I like this guy's videos, no overlay, tends to just dive right into games blindly to give a good first look, doesn't seem to be retarded and doesn't discuss politics at all(made one politically-related comment so far making fun of twitter libs out of many videos)

Remember Halo

Yeah, well it can goes both ways. Bethesda did not need Microsoft's help to turn licences into shit, or at the very least to dumb them down in order to appeal to a broader audiance. They have their fair share of shitty behaviors as well but it pales in comparison to 343 own records.

Take Sea of Thieves as an exemple. It is a simple game, "arcade" would say some of my friends but it is fun as well and so was Halo in its time(it still is in few ways). The former was empty at first with little interest but it got far far better later on. The latter was always thought to be fun casual games. 343i tried to turn a mass-appealing licence with tools for the community(the forge, the file-sharing, the custom games, Bungie.net, the local and online coop, etc) to a licence full of unfinished/incomplete games focused on competition/e-sport, needless complexity and predatory monetization. Bethesda are scumbags but they never realy abandonned their broader audiance gained by their "casualisation"(is it the right word ?), 343 did and did nearly everything to do so .
Microsoft might have had something to do with both SoT's succes and Halo's demise, we will only know it in a few years when articles about their developments will be published.

Now if you want to see Bethesda doing RPGs with mechanics and plot not taking its players for morons under Microsoft leadership then I would just be cautious if I were you. Even more so if they try to recreat a kind of Morrowind or Daggerfall in the futur.

I absolutely hate the peps who do these "retrospective", "looking back", "x game in y year" types of reviews.

It's a fucking game, nigger. Games don't age, much unlike your sister

I think it's for YouTube algorithm reasons.

Appraisal of their impact within the industry does change though. Whether it's with janky games that subsequently found recognition as a cult classic (e.g. KotOR 2, VtMB), drama that had to blow over before the game could be objectively appraised (e.g. ME3*) or just a matter of mapping the influences of a particular game on subsequent releases within the genre (e.g. BG1 as the quintessential isometric CRPG whose model was replicated by both subsequent BioWare titles and by other devs).

*Not implying that it's a good game, but critical reviewers were too focused on (& emotionally involved in) the ending fiasco to be able to properly appraise the broader game.

Microsoft's futility in managing Halo is stunning to me. Usually these big corporate franchises settle into a dull, risk-averse monotony but at least they're mostly competent and please their fans - like, I can't recall CoD fans ever rioting over the games - but MS and 343 seem incapable of not enraging their core audience with every little action they take.

It's Microsoft, when is the last time they wouldn't have mismanaged something? They mostly managed to handle XBox 360 Red Ring of Death decently, which was surprising.

The "What Went Wrong" vids are always interesting even if you haven't even heard of the game:
