Comment on Anyone else reckon Bethesda will go the way of Bioware?
JustARaccoon@lemmy.world 2 days agothey are owned by XBOX tho, sure internally it’s the same but externally it needs to make them money, and even Arkane wasn’t safe from getting axed in spite of the good games.

Arkane was a tragedy, a company that made it’s name from immersive sims forced to make a multiplayer, live-serivce game was destined to fail from inception.
I’d like to make this clear, I don’t like Bethesda for a lot of reasons I won’t get into right now, if there is one thing they’re still somehow good at is making money. Microsoft has never cared about review scores so long as their quarterly earnings were met/blown away.
Bethesda does a lot more than make one or 2 games a decade, they’re a successful publisher and recently a questionable developer (personally hated Starfield and Fallout 76). They have more in common with EA than they do Bioware in a business sense.
