Use nitter, this link should workIs there a way to view Emil's full rant without creating a twitter account? I deleted mine about 10 years ago and I'm not going back.
Thanks

I read this whole thread on the toilet while taking a dump… when I finished I named it “Starfield”
Mostly of the ones in the united states comes from down south from central america (northern-central mexico) or are native to the midwest desert/prairie plains.I was referring to how most types of tumbleweed are native to Russia (and Europe) and basically an invasive species in the Americas.
I don't.Honestly feel kind of bad for him
Honestly feel kind of bad for him, but I hope the lukewarm-at-best reaction to Starfield is going to shake him and the rest of the team awake. Getting trampled by Baldur's Gate 3 at every GOTY award should help too. Ideally they'll look at what went right for Larian, look earnestly at what went wrong for them, and then make TES VI one of the best games of their entire career.
I know that what will actually happen is that the only thing they'll take from BG3's success is "we should spend half our budget on mocap" and that TES VI will suck balls and play like something from 2010 but still, hope springs eternal.
Developers are scum.He got what he deserved - a roast in the comments.
Seriously why does anyone in Bethesda think it's a good way of tackling criticism?
Regardless of the content of their character, they could have been smarter about it.Developers are scum.He got what he deserved - a roast in the comments.

... I'm getting some serious Oblivion flashbacks, Does anyone remember the A-bomb glitch? Where a variable slowly counts up on your save file, after you reach a certain amount of time in a save file, that variable will reach a value and everything will break.It all boils down to something called dynamic form IDs. These are strings of data that Starfield uses to keep track of items in the game. As you move through the game's vast, lonely galaxy, you'll find yourself moving items around, taking gear off of deceased enemies, and leaving behind unwanted space junk. This creates more dynamic form IDs to keep track of what you've done with all your loot. The more there are, the more moving parts your save file has, and, as any coder will tell you, this means there are more ways it can crash.
F76 took them a lot of resources. It wasn't only that side studio.Fallout 4 came out in 2015, I just want to know what Beth was doing for those 8 years, do they just sit around the office and occasionally make a model or texture without clocking off?
Lmao dude should just get a blog.

Twitter also has ways to post really long tweets now, like article length. Although maybe that is just a feature for paid accounts.
In general though, a company that makes a service or product excusing a product or service for being of lower quality than the consumer expected or not meeting the consumer expectations in some other way by saying making the product is hard to do is going to be poorly received by consumers and it is a bad excuse.
A lot of services are hard to provide and a lot of products are hard to make. Consumers don't care. The company needs to better manage consumer expectations of your product if you think there is a decent chance you won't meet those expectations. What makes companies good and stand out is solving those problems to provide good services and products despite the challenges faced.
And what helps restore consumer confidence is acknowledging the problems and having a plan for addressing them. Excuses certainly don't restore consumer confidence.
And "team" is absolutely the operative word there. Lots and lots of folks doing lots of lots of work. Writing, level building, making character models, coding game systems, trying to schedule it all so it can get done and folks don't burn out, and on and on.
100% spot on. But I have to add that this goes a few steps beyond "GAYM BAD". The entire videogame industry has gotten far too comfortable with standards so low that in any other industry they would have most likely been locked up for fraud. They pretty blatantly lied about the game and this time there is no cushion of pre-established fan base or mod community to break their fall. For once it looks like they will not just get away with it and Emil is too dense to realize that is what is happening.Of course, such a catastrophic failure in a country's electrical grid does not compare to VIDEO GAME BAD, but in this business you don't get to drop a "job hard" and expect that to be it.
