A Skyrim clone in 2019+?? MS must want to throw some money away. Do you know how many walking/hiking simulators are there on steam? Also, Skyrim lived on hype. Can you really believe that another such hype is possible after 8+ years again for the same game? Jeezus. This Safov Hamon guy is really desperate. I get it, dude, you want Obsidian to succeed. Sure, so do I. But how will they succeed when they do nothing original?
Skyrim lived on hype? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Dude, people keep playing Skyrim to this day, 7+ years after its launch. They are still making mods for it, they are still making youtube videos for it with hundreds of thousands views+ for it...
A game that was sold mainly on hype but was bad, does not last anywhere near that long. You want to know a few hype-based games?
The last of us. Was considered OMG OMG OMG MASTERPIEEEEEECEEEEE when it came out. No one gives a fuck today.
GTA IV. Everyone lost their marbles when it came out. No one gives A FUCK TODAY. And it was only just 3 years prior to Skyrim and 2 from New Vegas...
Dragon Age Inquisition. Anyone giving a shit about that garbage these days?
Bioshock Infinite. 95 metascore, RETARDS couldn't stop talking about this masterpiece work of genius, in 2013. Anyone playing it now?
Far cry 2, 3, 4. Who plays those now?
Diablo III. The penultimate hype game. Sold 30 million copies on hype alone. Anyone playing it today? The expansion sold like what, 4 million copies only? It has been dead for years...
I could go on and on but you get the idea. There are tons of games that sold like hotcakes and had tons of hype, but no one gives a single flying fuck about them today. Yet skyrim is more than 7 years old and still going strong. You think that was hype and marketing? Get real.
It is fine to dislike a game, it is a matter of taste after all. But it is not fine talking bullshit about a game... Recognize that is an important game that is good for plenty of people...
