XboxEra Community Hangout |OT9| Waiting for Developer_E3

I mean, I’d argue the monetization issue with FM7 and Gears 5 MP not working opening weekend are major quality issues.

Playground also had weird issues supporting FH2 (I saw people talking about this around FH3 launch time iirc).

The not so amazing Lucas is an embarrassment to humankind.

I genuinely don’t believe he’s joking, just like he wasn’t in his video when MS acquired Bethesda and so many more Xbox related videos.

I think he’s “joking” on a couple of things he’s saying, but him being upset is absolutely true.

Its people like him that make the gaming community worse. Not to mention the vile comments he makes in general (whether we he actually believes them or is just farming clicks doesn’t matter imo).

Eh it was the first major time Turn 10 and The Coalition tried adding MTX to their games so I’d give them a pass for that and Turn 10 did fix it and the game itself was good. I don’t play Gears 5 MP so don’t know much about it not working, I still think they both are quality games that released on a regular cadence.

It was pretty baseless speculation, so I wouldn’t worry about anything that was said.

Oh I absolutely agree they are quality games in certain ways, but these are still glaring issues we should be aware of for the next releases.

As a huge Gears guy, the MP not being functional absolutely pissed me off. Lol

Yea the reason they were pumping games out every 2 years was because they had to

Not because they wanted to

I take the “is Xbox TOO Hands off” topic as a “we really need something to talk about” level of discourse. I wouldn’t worry about it.

This is one of those reasons why the game is so great.

It’s the small things. Someone in that studio thought “Some gamers will wait and see if Kenny makes a comment if they don’t use the gun, we have to make him react to that.”

Same with the Suit OS AI, if you don’t do as he says he will start commenting on it. My brother said he had paused the game and when he unpaused it Kenny scolded him for actually pausing the game in the middle of combat.

Fucking love such things.

Holy shit I didn’t actually see the original GP comments, no fucking wonder he got blasted what the hell. He kept on digging a bigger hole for himself and the does the whole woe is me Xbox fanboys bad. Reminds me of someone else who gets a little bit of push back then goes on to say console wars is bad and makes them want to stop doing coverage, then goes and console wars and degrades people himself.

Any guesses?

Elder Scrolls 6 was announced in 2018. I have a hard time thinking it’d hit in 2028, but they can stretch a year or two if you’re trying to get a point across.

Edit: nm it says unannounced

I wanna say everwild, but that’s one dead horse.

Halo Infinite 2: More Infinite.

It’ll take that long because they have to make a new engine again. :smile:

Is there anyone at XGS and Bethesda that isn’t currently rumored to be working on something? So it could be any game that hasn’t been announced, maybe something that’s been in development for several years already. Even than it could be a GAAS, meaning the game will launch and be updated for the remainder of the time before work is started at a new game.

Sheesh, I do hope TES VI is coming out around that time. That would be five years after Starfield. Surely that’s doable?

Maybe a project for Zenimax Online?

I have no real expectations for that, but I sure do hope it’s not dead. They gotta be busy with…something.

Hmmm, well the one where we have rumors about and I think even ZOS officially mentioning it has been in development for a while now. It’s probably not that I guess.

Maybe that IOI game it’s supposed to be huge.
