Xbox Game Studios |OT9| How many games would a game studio make if a game studio could make games?

Resetera confirmation means absolute zilch.

I know a guy who did some ventilation work at Mojangs offices. He would get verified as a Mojang insider on rEseTeRa. It’s technically true lol.

@Borealis

The ex dev story is contradicting itself from what he said before. I don’t believe anything he says

He might as well be a contractor, but openly not loving BGS games is a blasphemy

[PaMello (Mello)]

Still don’t understand what is the problem of this user’s message to some people here?

He literally further explains what he means by “The engine is shit”

He says that it’s just not very convenient.

He’s not saying that the end result of the game is going to be crap. He says that it is inconvenient to work with him. About flights, this is his personal opinion.

He himself said this several times, and even pointed out that other people might like it. About the fact that Starfield will not be as beautiful as Horizon FW Was it obvious to someone?

When was the last time Bethesda was a graphics pioneer? In 2006, with the advent of Oblivion. This does not mean that the game will look bad. It will look good, he says it himself.

Most likely, more attention is paid to physics, AI and so on. Whatever Bethesda considers more important.

If the message is delivered by a questionable person, on a questionable site, the message is questioned. Simple.

How bout we just wait and see in about month and a half time how the game is, we waited what 4 years or so what’s another 45 days.

Well, at least on that forum, people began to actively ask him questions.

I even saw a message from Klobrille

Probably, many users who sit both there and there would also like to chat with him.

The day before the showcase Starfield will turn into a Wii U exclusive and be delayed 2 years and be a farming sim.

I think you’re right, yeah

In the case of this user, the administration literally knows who it is, and gives him the appropriate status.

If you run a verification process, and if you want to be verified, you have to have a public profile and name for people to actually trust you are who you say you are. I don’t care that the administration of that (horribly administrated and moderated) site say or imposes as a verification process, if I personally can’t know who that person is, then they’re not verified, because, I literally can’t VERIFY who they are, their words are as good as any unknown’s.

@PaMello

I remember a lot of people attacking him last year because he said Starfield wasn’t coming out at the end of 21.

Most people were saying it’s a 2022 game. The most optimistic were saying 2021 but it didn’t make sense.

Blasphemy! You have to think about the click-children! Now is the time for baseless rumours, made up acquisitions, “I know a guy…”, “I’ve heard…”, LOOK AT ME!, “is X in trouble?”, click me!, bait and attention seeking bonanza.

Wait to see the games? Pfft, you’re crazy.

I’m not gonna lie it is crazy how much power a single individual can have on this industry, just a single comment from people can send shit into a frenzy about something being bad or awful. All it takes is one comment then websites pick up on it then it’s the new thing that’s being talked about on podcasts.

I hope Microsoft unleashes the potential of Series S with various colors and editions. I mean it should be no brainer to have Ovewatch themed Series S (for different characters) in the future for example.

And I still have no idea why they did not try to make Japanese flag themed Series S. They literally need just to color the black into red.

I find his statement on Horizon Forbidden West strange I’ve played the game and to be honest I didn’t find it that good anyway no more impressive than last year’s Starfield trailer which is an Alpha version

Starfield: Official Teaser Trailer

I mean it’s a fully Next-Next game with Next-Gen engine and technologies

Morrowind and Oblivion were the best at the time I have no doubt that Starfield raises the bar above anything we’ve seen on console so far

Wheher what they’re saying is good or not, it’s an extremely suspicious situation because we know NDAs exists and they discloses multiple NDA breaking points, the way they talked about the game is just unprofessional and unlike how devs usually talk about games, and the fact that we can’t trust they actually worked Bethesda. Is there a chance that they’re 100% correct and did work for Bethesda? maybe, but excuse me for not believing that based on this. The burden of evidence…

Yeah, after last years complete bullshit I’m done with rumours and the shit that grows from them. If it’s not an official source Idgaf.

Josh Sawyer has consistently said the Gamebyro/Creative Engine is one of the best engines in the industry for sandbox creation…

I think I’ll believe him Lol.

Yeah, for sandbox creation I have no doubt. Even UE5 copied its features.

Toolset is a separate matter. Considering how old the engine is, I would not be surprised that the tooling for it might be quite outdated in comparison to modern engines like UE or Unity.
