How can studio so shit and so incompetent get so much praise?

>>382987518
It's starting to change. More and more people are seeing through their bullshit.

They just have god tier marketing. Also a very charismatic spokes person.

Remember people were buying pet rocks before. So some people can be beguiled to buy anything.

>>382987841
Or vote for anyone for that matter. Pls don't kill me /pol/.

>>382987841
>implying a rock isn't the best pet a man can have.

Get the fuck outta here, nerd.

You see Bethesda has jumped on the "Life style" marketing. Most "nerds" know everything about Fallout and Skyrim it's pretty much embedded. So Beth capitalizes it and sells it with "hey gamer gurls and gaymer guys, look at our new awesome RPG" And they shill on Twitch, Youtube etc.

It's why car commercials are very profitable. When you see a Cadillac, most people associate it with luxury. People want luxury.

And right now people wanna be nerds cause it's cool right now.

Just my two cents.

For shame anon.

That would be Nintendo.
Bethesda is actually hated a lot lately. They had success with Skyrim but now most people opened their eyes on them.

>>382988494
Nintendo actually has a good marketing campaign, and makes good and enjoyable games, unlike most devs nowadays, the one problem people have with nintendo is the power of their consoles, but many think that they actually don't want to be compared to PC like the PS4 and XBox one consoles, which had worse specs than an average PC on release.

After TW3 and BOTW Bethesda realized there are many things they do wrong, be it in terms of design or technology. I believe they are currently working hard on improving their engine or even better, work on a better engine.

Todd himself is well aware of technical limitations from the gamebryo engine and realized that they need to work more on the open world design and story telling.

Anyway, if the next TES is dumbed down any further I'm done with bethesda

>>382987518
Yes

>>382988832
Nintendo is still the most overrated company out there. According to most people, journalists etc. they literally can do no wrong and they will defend even their most disgusting practices.
It all falls into the "It's ok when Nintendo does it" meme.

>>382988907
Shut up Todd.
Creation Club proved they don't have any intention on creating anything quality.

Well, pal, we're all entitled to our opinions but I'm sure no one at "vee" shares yours. There's the door.

>>382989212
What's up with that anyway? Creation Club, I mean. Are they attempting the paid mods business again?

I'm yet to finish Skyrim, and I can't even feel an ounce of will to do it.

>>382989470
Yeah, but unlike the last time, not any faggot can submit stolen assets, so they hope it works this time.
Unlikely, tho

>>382989470
Basically yea. They hide behind buzzwords like that they will work with mod creators and create content together. Basically how this works is that you have to buy a currency by real money and pay with it for shitty mods like Link armor with textures made in MS Paint. Their video even has a fucking "Horse Armor" in one option. They are fucking aware.
Gaming is dead.

>>382989146
Yeah, I agree, but at least they still make good games. Look at BotW, I am agreeing that the game is overrated, but it's still a unique experience, and I can only give myself as an example here, but as someone who didn't play any other zelda game before, the first 80 hours of this game for me were aweinspiring and I am thinking of getting an emulator to play the other games.

I actually love Fallout 4 and every beth game since Morrowind. idk they rub my autism the right way.

>>382989807
Sure. I actually wish that most of triple AAA meme open world games were like BotW. What i don't like is that Nintendo basically pushed this stupid trend even further when it actually just kills games.

>>382989470
Essentially. They try to hide behind shit like
>only brand new content is acceptable
>no currently existing mod can become part of the creation club
>it will be QA'd and supported by Beth (o i am laffin) so that updates and DLC don't fuck it up
>think of it more like outsourced DLC rather than a mod!
but at the end of the day its still a user made mod that people are paying for. Especially considering what they advertised it with, that dwemer crab thing which seems like little more than a retexture.

>>382987518
Not really overrated because even with the success of something like Skyrim even normies still shit on it and make fun of it for weird bugs and glitches or whatever.

They're in this weird territory where their games are hugely popular while at the same time a large number of their fans and players tear down its flaws at every opportunity.

They're starting to get less and less praise after FO4 and this years E3 which still featured Skyrim shilling 6 years after its release.

>>382989854
Same here. I like each for different reasons and have sunk hundreds of hours into each one. They all have their ups and downs, some more than others but it doesn't really take away from how much I play them.

>>382989854
because you're a dumb redditor/neogafer

>>382989854
I hate autists like you that enjoy repetitive garbage with no value. Your opinions are subhuman and you should know this and keep them to yourself.

>>382990185
Yeah, there is a surpluss of open world games on the market and the worst part is that they would work better as linear games rather than open world.

>>382993785
what a pathetic nerd

>>382993913
nah, you should really just kill yourself, faggot. take your objectively shit taste and go back to wherever you came form

People tell me morrowind and skyrim are video game staples.
Are they not?

>>382993964
go and fap to your dating sim you autistc faggot, you need to relax this micro penis of yours

>>382993964
You're really proving his pathetic comment.

Imagine getting this mad about video games.

>Hate Bethesda games with the exception of New Vegas which they only developed the framework for
>Love everything else publish.
Wolfenstein TNO, Doom 4, Dishonored 1 and 2, Prey. Some of the most enjoyable games to come out in modern times.

I applaud Bethesda because they're the only major Western company that gives a shit about Single Player.

Bethesda is one sneaky jew

>>382994148
Literal autists should not be allowed to voice their opinions.

>>382994207
They're good publishers, but they should just stay away from developing Fallout games. They've done more harm than good.

In short, normies. Look how popular and highly praised Skyrim is, that is the new level of what is acceptable. Can't blame them for capitalising on it to be perfectly honest
