Stanfield was such a piece of shit, I don't know how even diehard Bethesda brigade types even defend it. Back in the mid 2000s all tge RPG nerd types were going on about how Oblivion killed the RPG, If only they could see it today
I don't think they could pull off a dark sun setting. If they do will get thri-kreen sex.
I'd make the argument that level scaling has been a blight on RPG's in general. I doubt Oblivion started that trend, but it certainly seemed to be the first game I saw get talked about it. and I feel like I saw it pop up a lot more after it came out.
Well there are a few ways. For hardcore Morrowind enthusiasts Oblivion was the direct sequel to their most beloved game, and while a drastic increase I graphical fidelity, tye oversimplification of so many aspects, from dialogue to to city design down to not being able to equip to different fucking gloves if you wanted to, was seen as a stab in the back.
People complain a lot about Oblivion's level scaling because it doesn't work as intended, with how the level up system works if you don't minmax you'll find yourself quickly out scaled by the level scaling making the game impossible or very frustrating to play.
Even with efficient leveling in my last playthrough it started to get annoying and tedious around Level 10. There's a point where unless I'm constantly enchanting my weapons or I'm lowering the difficulty a tick every level or two, the enemies just start becoming damage sponges.
I was never big into DnD, wether TTRPG or CRPG, but this shit is so mindbogglingly retarded.
Definitely, same for most of the 90's powerhouse RPGs, only V5 and the other new WoD releases are worse than Current Year DnD. Insane what happened to the medium in the last couple of years.
Yeah, definitely, i remember that, too. Only thing worse than Morrowind elitists is Daggerfall elitists.
I've never encountered any Daggerfall elitists, what are they like?
The few I've seen complained they couldn't climb shit and that Morrowinds dungeons sucked.
Much like with Fallout fans, this is just what Elder Scrolls fans do I think
Might be true. I bought every Fallout game up to NV (except that PS2 title) at release and i was stunned at the amount of fags shitting up threads in the F3 pre- and post release days on /v/ with stuff like "Hurr, this is not Fallout!" "Oblivion with guns!", morphing into absolute revisionist bullshit like "F2 was the Borderlands 2 of its time!" because of the pop culture references in it. Never understood this shit, i was hyped as a motherfucker for F3 ever since its first trailer and had a blast playing it, same for NV.
Critical Role happened. I mean, everything became gay and lame for various sociopolitical reasons, but a bunch of faggy socal VAs opened the floodgates to an armada of danger hair social justice faggots.
I think borderline lolcow Razorfist is a Daggerfall elitist but I may be mistaken. Basically just huge contrarians.
No, it wasn't 10mln$, it was around 5mln$, by the end their last grant was cut in half even, also they got around 4mln from VKPlay to be an exclusive for their gamestore (how it was with Atomic Heart, but the price for that was 7mln). Also, the only thing Syberia Nova did was make concept art for online browser games. Impressed he didn't mention how the game used a special software that records voice lines and then creates models to sync up with said voice lines. Course he still needs to act like a good western cocksucker. Also, it was never "We Russians defeated Hitler and went to space" or whatever other shit, you brainless fuckhead, it was always "We SOVIET people defeated Hitler and went to space" , the only time "We RUSSIAN" was started getting pushed down everyone's throats, was AFTER the collapse of the USSR , you worthless waste of genetics.
Dude, Greedfall is way better than this. Frankly, I wanna call bullshit that this faggot even finished this game, for you see this game was SO badly optimized (seriously, even people with a GeForce 4090 and RTX3080 can barely run this POS), but you see this game can not only break on several occasions and hardlock your progress, which itself resulted with players needing to trade fucking save games just to continue playing. Yet, he never mentions it.
Greedfall reminds me of Piranha Bytes games, lots of interesting ideas, but jank as hell and it never all comes together.
Why did he bring up Hitler?
