Re: Square Enix President Orders Development Review to Improve Quality of Future Games

Thrussted

@MrMagic Keyword being "should". BG3 makes a case for best game of the decade. Meanwhile, Call of Duty still outsells everybody despite being mediocre at best. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and while RPGs (for what SE is known for) are my favorite genre and eagerly await those kind of games, millions more wait for the next CoD to drop. Every. Single. Year.

Meanwhile, Final Fantasy 16 took 7 years to complete. Octopath Traveler 2, 3-4 years. FF7R atleast 6 years. I think they want to pump out more, but I really fear for quality, since I really love those previously mentioned games.

Re: Publishing Exec Claims 'There Are Too Many Games'

@Darylb88 You mean WERE the publisher of The Sunken City after they didn't or refused to pay Frogwares, the creator. I'll admit, Transport Fever 2 and Sherlock Holmes do look ok, but I'm not sure about the others. I am going to say this: I will actively try and avoid Nacon as much as possible if I have to be honest.

Nacon for me doesn't have the right to talk about quality. I remember Blood Bowl 3, Werewolf and lest not forget Gollum. Then games that I don't play but see show up every year, Tennis, Cricket, Pro Cycling, ...
Maybe they should follow their own advice and stop publishing games and go into quality control of games since that's the part that is sorely lacking here. A studio devoted to testing and QA. (Maybe not Nacon given their track record.)

Re: Bethesda's Fallout 76 Suddenly Runs Better Than Ever on PS5

I'll jump to New Vegas' defense any day. For me, the best Fallout game to date, with only 18 months of development, a deadline set by Bethesda. Obsidian did a fantastic job in that time. I really do not see why anyone would say it's a black sheep. Just say it was not developed by Bethesda. And if you're talking about development, it makes zero sense to include it the way you did in this article, since all other games were made by Bethesda anyway.
