Also, it being held off a popular platform will impact it with negativity as well.
Oddly, part of Skyrim's success is not even the core game, its the memes and stupidity of all the glitches that made it funny. I don't think they're aiming for that anymore lol
The reason Skyrim had so much staying power, is because of it's community.
It's the modding community that has been fixing and improving Skyrim to this day. Not Bethesda.
If the community doesn't support Startfield, then it will be just another game release.
Yes, the same Skyrim that was basically a MESS for PS3 with solutions being - stop doing so much in the game or you will have save crashes Skyrim - and other, reported issues.The same Skyrim that launched to stellar reviews and multiple GOTY awards? Metacritic 96%? Selling 20 million units In 1.5 years?
Why would they want to buy it if they can just create a new account for MS and use the conversion trick to play the game for few dollars tops?You expect that people will hesitate to click the ‘Buy’ button on Steam or Xbox Store
Wouldn't be surprised if that's more a PS3 problem than a Skyrim one. PS3 had some serious performance problems towards the end. Can't tell you how many times I had to pull the plug because it froze while syncing trophies lol.Yes, the same Skyrim that was basically a MESS for PS3 with solutions being - stop doing so much in the game or you will have save crashes Skyrim - and other, reported issues.
Sure, it's been how many years since the game was released originally? I have a bug, where i can't literally play THE WHOLE DLC, because, wait for it, I traveled the world TOO MUCH and the only thing that Bethesda achieved is fixing the workaround with wooden platter to gain access to castle Volkihar or whatever this name. So yeah, I recognize the achievements Bethesda did, but this time, the number of connections between stuff will be a magnitude bigger . I have little hope it will work flawlessly for a year after launch.
You really are stuck in a gaming hardcore bubble, in order to sell 10's of millions it needs to hit non-gamers.You expect that people will hesitate to click the ‘Buy’ button on Steam or Xbox Store simply because it’s not on PlayStation?
Hmm
Memes and bugs didn’t drive Skyrim success. Pre-release hype, stellar reviews and the quality of the final product itself did that.
I think it’ll be huge because of the popularity of TES series. I definitely think it’s going to do Harry Potter numbers.
damn, YES!! you just hyped me the fuck upBethesda want it to be.
There is so much scope for expansion in this setting.
You have multiple factions, 1000s of planets and Bethesda has been working on this for a long time.
It's going to be huge.
It's without doubt the biggest and most important game release of 2023.

Nearly flawless western RPGs? Not counting all 13492 bugs I had, are you?Skyrim is HUGE. Over a decade later people are still playing it and talking about it as if it was just released a year ago. The game has so much attention it's unbelievable.
Do you think Starfeld will have the same impact at all? Do you think it will even have a fraction of the impact that a game like Skyrim has? Skyrim is so massively and insanely popular and Bethesda really knows how to make games that hold up. Even Fallout is still kind of a big deal nowadays.
What can we do without Bethesda and their nearly flawless Western role-playing games? What will happen with this new game do you think?
