There’s a reason Bethesda’s become a giant in gaming. They have a specific storytelling, game design and world building that’s unique to them.

Sure, other games may have better designed worlds, but something about Bethesda games just makes them unreplacable(?). There’s also the fact that they’re the only xbox games with an actual modding community and some really in depth mods.

Yes, their old masterpieces.

They have a specific storytelling

Being honest, their storytelling feels very outdated by now, even old trilogies like Mass Effect and Bioshock had a storytelling that has aged far better; not to mention TW3, RDR2 and just recently Baldur's Gate 3.

something about Bethesda games just makes them unreplaceable(?)

"something" is called nostalgia.

You seem pretty bitter against a company that you deem outdated and unvaluable.

Why the argumentative response to someone liking something that you don't?

Honestly, why try to convince someone to not like something that you don't consider worthwhile in the first place. Your words say Bethesda is obsolete and worthless, the time you put into crafting this says the opposite.

I've never met a group of people as fucking weird as the starfield fanboys. Every criticism of the game is some awful personal attack on them designed 'to stop them enjoying it'

PEOPLE ARE ALLOWED TO DISLIKE THINGS AND THEY HAVE HAVE THE RIGHT TO EXPRESS AN OPINION ABOUT THEM.

I honestly don't get it, do you people think if you shut down all the criticism about the game it will suddenly be actually good or something? Like a tree falling in the woods type situation?

I'm not even defending it. Criticize the game all you want. However, why criticize someone's enjoyment of the game?

Seems to me that you are supporting the same thing that you are condemning - criticizing opinions.

Also, if the game is really that bad, why get into debates about how bad it is?

I don't like the PlayStation or Sony as a company - I'm not gonna rant about it in the PlayStation sub. Lol
