Not rushing devs? Good thing.
Devs still shoveling the same shit but a year later? Bad thing.
I’m 36 now and we’re still at least 6, probably 8, years from Elder Scrolls 6. If there’s going to be an Elder Scrolls 7 I probably won’t live to see it.
Honestly it’s just stupid how few good open world fantasy games exist.
At least Elden Ring exists.
I feel like you could put on a blindfold, click around a few times on Steam and end up picking an open world fantasy game.
He did mention “good” open world fantasy game
The definition of “good” can be adjusted, depending on how desperate you are.
That said, I m against sacrificing my standards when it comes to paid things, I want to get what I paid for, and definitely back the people praising BG3 and want games of that caliber now that Larian has shown everybody that it’s possible.

Hold the fucking phone, did you say Alan wake 2?
There’s no way, tell me what you just said is real. I have heard nothing on this, I’m gonna go look this up ASAP.
and that’s perfectly fine? As a Zelda fan, the wait for TOTK was absofuckinglutely worth it
I swear to god, I don’t know how anyone could be impatient about this. Have you played every other video game that’s been released during the ~50 yr history of video games? No? Ok, go play one of those or touch some goddamn grass
I mean there’s definitely a limit right? Like if you take too long you’ll need to scrap some tech to keep up to date. Or you get into dev hell. Look at Duke Nukem and other crazy long sequels
There’s more games out there than the time I have to play them.
We also expect much more from sequels these days. Most old games’ sequels are just more content on the same engine with minimal new features. Spyro 2 was Spyro 1 with swimming, ice, and powerups. I don’t remember Crash Bandicoot 2 changing anything but the hub world. Did Guitar Hero make any major changes between 1, 2, or 3? Nowadays, Elder Scrolls gets significant engine upgrades between each game, as does Halo, as did Horizon. Totk’s biggest critique is “its just DLC cuz it’s in the same engine”, even though there have been some substantial, non-graphical, physics based upgrades.
One of the advantages of being a patient gamer for sure. Shoutout to [email protected]
Doesn’t that mean that for you the wait is even longer?
You’re not getting it on release date like most people, you’ll get it at least a year later.
By the time I get to playing a series usually several games in that series have come out. I usually play games that are 5+ years old, I don’t have time to keep up with current releases and that’s more expensive anyway. Playing on a multi-year delay keeps me away from over-hype of game releases and by the time I play them they’re patched, have all dlc, whatever else is applicable. I don’t do it for every game obviously but it’s my typical way of buying games
Play like a dead franchise like parasite Eve or syphon filter or something. They’re moderately short only a few sequels and you’re done.
That’s a good point too. I like that idea
