I feel like we’re in a place where extreme toxic negativity has been met with extreme toxic positivity. Just two extremes with no nuanced convo. The majority of players never felt like the game was unplayable trash that had no redeeming qualities. It’s just boring and mechanically outdated. And it it leans on Bethesda’s weaknesses and not their strengths. The starfield fandom acts like people were calling this Concord levels of bad or something. It was a lack luster entry from a historically profound RPG maker.

@DyingLightGame 1 year ago I would have said its time for those players to move on but given console manufacturers have significantly raised prices, I feel bad for those that are stuck on last gen. Honestly its not their fault gaming has become so unaffordable. Sad really.

@pcgamer Good for him. Its really just these brainrotted losers who go “I didn’t like Avowed so Obsidian is bad” meanwhile they made Pentiment, and The Outer Worlds 2. Tbh most people who don’t like Obsidian are just tourists who don’t play games 🤷‍♂️

@pcgamer Yes! But sever ties with Xbox. Xbox is dead as a brand and is being ran by AI execs who have no idea what they are doing. Going independent would be the best thing for them. Glad Bethesda is fighting back!

@Der_Kernel_ @asha_shar Asha is never going to notice you bro 😭 I can’t believe how many brain dead cattle there are defending the layoffs. And people who believed the whole “14 layers of management comment” lol

Oh thats why I said they’re still probably woefully underpaid. This person probably didn’t make much unfortunately. But I imagine after 27 years of service you’re probably the MOST paid or one of the highest paid people there. So when they look at cost cutting they would probably target her. Its not right at all but its probably apart of why they laid her off.

Ya because xbox imposed 14 layers of management on them so they could never make anything. Xbox/Microsoft execs to upper management should be gutted. Honestly fire Asha and all these AI losers. Then sell Xbox off an independent. Once that happens we’d be getting a new game from these teams every year.

How numb are you? This is the largest gaming layoff event in modern history. This could single handedly kick off a crash for the industry if these studios don’t make it to next year. Most of these people who were impacted will need to permanently move out of gaming. Anyone down playing or trying to spin this as best possible outcome is out of their mind.

@SynthPotato GTA 6 really screwed us here. Execs are going to point to how successful digital only launch of the game was and say “see people love digital only!!!” Sad honestly

@JakeBaldino Honestly, for 1 billion dollar+ game, what a lackluster preorder bonus. There were endlessly cool ways they could have had amazing pre-order bonus. But decided on this.

@G27Status Do you even need to ask? Performance is comparable to an rtx3060. Every console out currently beats them in performance and cost less. You can’t really blame the state of the market if your more than your competitors. Thats just bad planning and greed.

@robsoniecker @DevEthos “Make more fallout, make more cod, make more psychonauts!!” Ya lets just make games in the same franchises forever and never do anything new. Crazy how these armchair gamers talk about big studios being risk averse then turn around and bitch when they try something new.

@ElChapmanoo @DestinLegarie Xbox is currently profitable on its own. Just not enough for Microsoft.

@jarrichvdv @DestinLegarie Ya wanting your entertainment division to perform like your AI department in terms of profit margin is bad. They’re getting 4%. Thats not bad for gaming. Not to mention Microsoft is causing gaming budgets to inflate with its slop data centers.

Gears of War E-Day having 400 million dollars is insane. Game looks sweet but no way a game like that should cost that much. Xbox has a spending issue 👈 #gaming #gearsofwar
