Well their fuckery with that “update” last year backfired in that regard. I haven’t played Skyrim in quite some time because they broke every fucking mod I’ve been using for years. I haven’t even seen the content they added.

With the buying of Bungie at the hands of Sony, What will Happen to the Xbox One versions of Destiny 1 and 2!?

Nothing, probably. This is just so that Sony has a hand to play in the interest of keeping stuff like Call of Duty multiplatform. And, at least currently, Microsoft is still saying that they won’t make Activision games Microsoft exclusives.

I want to get it, and from what I’ve been hearing; It’s really good.
 
This is why I’ve never been one to want to fully swear off a company (Yes. Even Blizzard or Marvel) If they do produce something good, I want to buy it, it’s the people in charge literally telling me they hate me is to why I don’t want to give them money. Konami never did that, so as long as they produce a worthwhile game, I’m interested.
 
I wouldn’t be surprise if wrote this off because it’s not by their lord and savior Kojima, and if it gets good sales could be a hamper on him getting his hipster hands all over Castlevania. . . Again.

If who wrote this off? Also, when was the point where Kojima went and became extreme hipster along with drinking the cinematic hollywood kool-aid?

Why is Sifu blowing up all of a sudden? Is it good? The only videos I’ve seen make it look like you just walk around starting random fights like a highly trained retard.

Because they believe it’s worth more that way. There are still people that gaslight themselves into believing Death Standing wasn’t a bland, open-world walking sim and giant waste of time because His name is all over it - and since they want him to essentially just have all of Konami’s IPs bestowed upon him.
 
The second there’s a whiff of Konami being a decent gaming company again, they’re going to panic.

How good do you think Starfield will be once they release that? I want to be excited for something fresh and new from Bethesda for a change, but given their recent history, I have my doubts it’ll be anything above average. In fact, I expect a glitch fest with 3 voice actors voicing 99% of all the characters.

I believe how good it is will depend on two years of patches and how large and how skilled of a modding community it attracts. I don’t believe it will be good on launch, though I expect it will take a month or two for people to realize that. Especially since they’re doing something new.
 
I do, however, have slightly more hope in them being able to refine the game after launch than I would with an Elder Scrolls or Fallout release.

So because fans of Kojima’s games like bad Kojima games, you have concluded that a logical explanation for why this game might fail is due to a massive backlash out of absolutely nowhere because Konami didn’t assign Kojima to direct this game to which he has zero relation?

Morrowind was created in the Gamebryo Engine, as was Oblivion and Fallout 3 and LE Skyrim. Creation Engine is similar but has its differences from what I can tell.

It’s the same. That’s why Fallout 76 uses recycled code from Fallout 4 and Skyrim. Since Fallout 4 also uses recycled code from Skyrim, Fallout 76 is really just copy/pasting code from Skyrim twice.
 
The scorchbeasts in 76 and the vertibirds in Fallout 4 are both just Skyrim dragons under the hood.

Oooooooooh, is that why vertibirds can’t ever land anywhere normally, always flying around in wide circular patterns, only to land half a map away from where you told it to set you down, phasing straight through solid objects on it’s way down?
 
Explains a lot.
