Got a question for ya’ll. Why do you think Sony has been hard on timed exclusives? Do you think it’s because Jim Ryan likes blowing money on console wars? Or do you think it’s because they have data to suggest it brings people into the ecosystem?

Months ago before the Bethesda acquisition was announced Shinobi asked people to think about why Sony is suddenly aggressive with timed exclusives. Though it was probably because Sony knew this was happening, Shinobi might have known too but us regular people sure didn’t.

They legit said in the Bethesda drop we’ll hear Game Pass news later this week, I think that’s all what the “event” is suppose to be. EA Play stuff for PC has been happening + some other Bethesda titles hitting PC on the MS store pages.

[Borealis]

This is what excites me the most about the zenimax acquisition and because I would expect the games to be made solely for pc and xbox, I want to see the level of detail and polish that the coalition does. My only concern is Bethesda, their worlds are large and highly detailed, but the studio has not grown as much as Rockstar, I am not sure if the staff they have is enough to do TES with next generation graphics and details in an acceptable time and without so many bugs.

I’m sure they’ll grow a lot more now, just like every other studio is growing under Xbox. Sky’s the limit.

I’m sure Microsoft will pump some real money and support to make TES6 one of the greatest things to ever happen.

That’s Phil’s plan actually he said it himself: Helping make future Bethesda titles the biggest and most popular games in their history.

They’re going to make Bethesda THICC.
