Geniune question: Do you think Bethesda can get away with another game like this?

There's been a discontent with Bethesda's video games for a long time, lots of dedicated fans are displeased with casualization and a general lack of polish; but with Fallout 4 I honestly thought this unhappiness reach a level it's never done before. Game's like Morrowind and Oblivion were considered groundbreaking for their time, but with the rise of Open World games Bethesda now has some stiff competition; and their games are still very janky and unpolished, and they're still continually removing features from previous installments.

Fallout 4 might have been a massive success and loved by normalfags the world over, but even in mainstream circles there started being rumblings of the game being a disappointment. When TESVI rolls around, will this level of quality cut it?

Yes
They are releasing Fallout 4 VR in a month for 60$

They can forever get away with this cause there's always gonna be retarded normies Bethesda can feed their shit to and they'll be liking it.

A critically acclaimed game? Yeah probably.

TESVI will sell no matter what but if it continues down this path I think it'll sell worse than Skyrim.
>>
Bethesda can keep churning out garbage and make billions.
Open world games aren't new or innovating anymore, and Bethesda can just spend all of their money on advertising for their minimal effort minecraft simulator with a garbage story that will sell no matter what. While Fallout 3 was passable Fallout 4 isn't even a fucking Fallout game. It's bad fanfiction, hell fans could make a better game than Beth.
>>
>>388187001
Yeah
As long as they don't fuck it up as bad as Andromeda they will continue to sell exceptionally well to the normie crowd. People just want a stupidly simple shooter with a Fallout aesthetic, so as long as they can do those two things the normies will continue to eat it up.

Hilariously bad animations of "not giving a fuck" proportions notwithstanding, everything wrong with Mass Effect Andromeda applies to Fallout 4, maybe even the game's troubled development.
>>
>>388187850
You look familiar, you wouldn't happen to know anything about Skyirm coming out on Nintendo Switch by any chance.

On some level I think Bethesda already know they fucked up.

The legs of a Bethesda game is determined by the modding community, and all though Fallout isn't as big as TES the activity in the modding scene between Skyrim and Fallout 4 is night and day.

Depends on how the game is recieved critically.
Todd admits the voiced protag and dialog wheel were a mistake and most agreed that skills should have stayed, however literally no one outside of /v/ or NMA so much as made a peep about the writing so that aspect (which unfortunately happens to be the most important aspect of a Fallout game) is going to remain untouched. Same goes for TES.

Oblivion is literally unplayable without mods. It's not just bad the shitty leveling system will eventually turn enemies into immortal bullet sponges once you level up too much.

this game is very highly praised by normies and they don't have the same elitist tastes of people on /v/, if you think theres outrage over bethesda games, its only because you live in a /v/ echo chamber.

Yeah no. A console friend of mine who loved oblivion, fallout 3, and skyrim thought f4 was boring as fuck. Only underage minecraft kids and cowadoody toddlers on consoles think it is good. The modding scene is fucking dead too, while even fallout 3 is getting new mods regularly.

Doesn't matter if some of the quests are good when the core gameplay is ass cancer that punishes you for leveling up.
Oblivion has plenty of shitty quests too the entire mages guild, knights of the nine, and main quest are garbage.

the dedicated fans are a minority, fo4 is made for your average dudebro who hasn't touched the previous games, and it works, in the future I see them streamlining the game even more and pulling some scummy shit like keeping certain nodding tools exclusives to creation club members or having a tier system with more features of you are part of the creation club, at that point they could very well do it since they killed complex quests mods with their dialog weel and voiced protag, all that's made nowadays is weapon/armor mods, they could even look like good guys doing it by using Loverslab as a straw man saying it's sexist and bad and that why they need to monitor what is made.

Fallout 4 was literally the biggest disappointment of my gaming career. I gave into the hype and was so let down by how stripped the game was compared to New Vegas which I naïvely thought Bethesda would try to emulate and build on. I honestly cannot stand Fallout 4, it is not a Fallout game as far as I'm concerned and it's barely an RPG. I can't say that I'm all that surprised at how well it sold though, unfortunately we'll probably be seeing even more casualization of Bethesda's games when TES6 is released.

I unironically enjoy Fallout 4. With the FROST mod, it becomes the best survival simulator ever made.

DUST is way better at this state but FROST might beat it ones its finished

LGR didn't shill for it. He enjoyed it and mentioned that it wasn't good as a fallout game, but had enjoyable crafting and shooter aspects.

Bethesda has no idea how to make challenging gameplay, their games have always just been walking simulators that try to create as huge and immersive a world as possible with the bare modicum of actual game mechanics. Just play Arena, it's a complete piece of shit.

Sorry to break it for you bro but they are selling like hot cakes, so why change?

I'm a Morrowind fan, I tried Oblivion at the time and found it too "not-rpg" for me, so I dropped it and haven't played anything bethesda since. I guess it boils down to "if you don't like them don't play them" because they surely will not change.

Why do Oblivfags even exsist? I understand the arguments for either Skyrim or Morrowind, but Oblivion is a piece of shit middleground between the 2.
