Probably not so much COVID and instead trying to coordinate 27 different outsourced studios. Why not just make it mostly inhouse like before??? If we're talking scale issues; why introduce these by aiming for deluge of samey procedurally generated worlds instead of the one quality handmade world you're already known for?

My thoughts exactly. Whatever issues were in Morrowind, Oblivion, New Vegas, Skyrim etc there was still a uniquely engaging game there.
I've been poking around and their lead concept artist died before he got to work on Fo4, and the two main writer producer guys Emil & Pete(?) have basically admitted on game dev talks that they're no longer trying to tell a coherent story or create a world anymore, just keep a player playing. Maybe this is why?
I was kinda hoping for this too as much as I like ac as ac itself. I don't think the issue is this new genre as much as everyone confining it to dark fantasy
Blud they literally made the genre. There is no like. This is their form
Yes, but where that inch takes you is important. Even if Morrowind, Skyrim, Oblivion and NV etc were super shallow, their worlds only fell apart under scrutiny. Fo4 is immediately nonsensical and these reviews look like they place it in the same ballpark.
I do worry even that vague standard of quality is just vanishing and being filled in with "cool moments" and shoddy systems meant to provide "content" when people were already willing to play your games for a while just off of the work already being done by Beth.
I wonder if 40k would've been really weird if the primarchs were female but sms were male. It feels like you can find a ton of cool father-son or mother-daughter or father-daughter character dynamics but mother&son ones are usually dark psychosexual weird things for serial killers or something.

I feel like it's diff when it's literally a dry part of the food item meant to be grabbed like that and most ppl would still use napkins and shit.
I'm south american so converted I could live like a king and never work again for the rest of my life. Uh, or start financing a way out haha
Isn't everyone everywhere breathing toxic air? I don't see what the big deal is
