Comment on Anon expects more
mke@programming.dev 2 weeks agoBG3 might not be a healthy reference for videogame development for different reasons, but it’s definitely remarkable how nothing has made me less excited for ES6 than Starfield.
I can’t predict how long it’ll take until it releases, but I’m doubtful it could be enough to fix whatever mess is already making its way through production—if they even planned to fix it, that is.

As far as characters & engagement goes, I think it’s fair to now want more from the Elder Scrolls than their typical surface-level cutouts they’ve given players so far.
I play games for the characters and environments. Sure, good ol’ Bethesda doesn’t have to copy BG3 as a template, but I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t raise my expectations for them now, after seeing what other games have shown what can be achieved. Y’know?
