All this rant for Spider-Man 2 to outsell Starfield by miles and get nominated for GOTY. The copium is strong.im not taking anything away from Bethesda. But they’re not know to launch their games in a good state. That will definitely take a hit on their scores.
Unless it's Fallout 76 type of launch, scores will not be deducted. As proven by all their previous launches.
Also its looking like it has made some progress in latest showing. It could launch is decent state, we never know.

Frankly, even with that - I would chalk it up to Insomniac being a far more efficient studio than Bethesda Game Studios (Note: I mean only BGS, not the sister studios like iD Software, Arkane etc.) There was a 5 year gap between ES: Morrowind to Oblivion and again a 5 year gap between ES:Oblivion and Skyrim. 4 year gap between Skyrin amd Fallout 4 - and F4 was nowhere near the quality of Skyrim. Then they rode on the Skyrim train - remastering that same game from 2011 till present. Even with such huge gaps - they always depend on mods to fix their game, and many times even their main quests have game breaking bugs that have to be fixed.
Insomniac meanwhile can give 85+ games or 90+ meta games every 2 years or so. Sony is a very good task-master, while Zenimax/Bethesda is a horrible publisher IMO. They have needed a whip, and this is the first time they will be getting one with MS.
This does not even count the time that development would have completely stalled or stopped while the acquisition talks were going on between MS and Bethesda.
IP-wise though - Spiderman is far bigger than Starfield, and maybe even Elder Scrolls. Between Starfield and Spiderman - Sony/Insomniac have nothing to fear. If anything, MS might have to adjust their release dates to not compete with Spiderman. They need not even do that though, since Starfield will be on GP and most people will have an active sub and will play with that. Sales of Starfield will be minimal, while Spiderman will be huge. Due to GP - both will co-exist.
I was going to reply point by point, but it took too long.
So i will just say this.
Pedigree of studio is important. This is not Xbox One era where just making a competent game would be enough.
First of all, Bethesda is a pioneering studio. I have Skyrim installed right now. Whatever Elden Ring / Breath of the Wild achieved, they did it in 2011.
That is, landmark based exploration. You see interesting city/settlement/landmass right in front of you, that you wanna explore cause it's interesting. Not just to put a checkmark in the map.
Outside of that, just the scope of the game is immense. True RPG elements, ship building, ship combat, 100s of solar systems.
I will be highly surprised if Insomniac made any improvements beyond graphics, lip syncing, side quest stories etc. I mean, that stuff is nice to have, but hardly something I pioneering studio would be satisfied with.

This is hilarious to read.
Make smaller posts, I will get tired replying to this.
Taking it to VS thread.

Think it’s the other way, genius. Spider-Man is a HUGE IP with equity outside of gaming as well. Starfield is well.. just there2 hours ago, 0verlord said:True. It will be a real hard work for them to try to count all the money they will be making from the sales
Am talking about game development. Starfield is being worked on since 2016. Development seems to have been finished and it's mostly about play testing/ polishing. We have seen multiple videos.
Insomniac on the other hand released 2 games after 2020. They have two teams. Must be scrambling/ crunching to finish the game in September.
On top going against competitors big game would mean extra pressure.

Grain of salt and all that. This guy is supposedly playing Venom in SP2.
Bold to go up against Starfield like that.
Insomniac has their work cut out if true.

Interesting new locations in trailers.
Just wish combat was improved and was more enjoyable from first game.

You have no idea about their fanbase. They have still kept it alive after such bad PR at launch. Also heard it's in pretty good now. Crossed 13.5 million players recently.

embarrassing lineup. Nothing that comes close to god of war, Spider-Man, got and so many othersBig Bethesda rpg is embarrassing
Also funny to see a lot of people taking U turn on Arkane games.

Darksiders type game is good.
Shame combat is not souls type.
Why Dev's can't think out of the box? A game like that would break mould and will be far more interesting.
It's what I enjoy most about Atomic Heart.

You shouldn’t be talking about dry when lord Phil hasn’t given you anything meaningful since 2021s halo
Wut?
They opened with Hifi Rush.
Redfall is just a month away. Starfield is 4 months away.
They also usually have something for holidays, assuming Forza.
Gamepass is offering AAA third party day 1 titles in droves, impossible to keep up.
On top they were 2021 publisher of the year. I wouldn't be surprised if they repeat it this year.

Choose one. Marvel or DC. You can't have both.

Still waiting for PS to announce AAA first party games for this year.
Seems kinda dry.

Did you play both scenarios in RE2 ?
Like if you played first with Leon then did a 2nd run with Claire ?
Onto it.
Second run doesn't feels as well made though. Much smaller in scope and weird difficulty spikes. Now I have to fight a clicker with a pistol.
Unfair, not fun.

FU. Tried offering one to my god child. I have now been relieved of godparent duties.
J/k of course. I did offer but he wanted a tablet instead 🤷
My nephew also only plays on tablet. He has both xbox and ps5.
Just plays Roblox. Wants me to play on phone as well if i try to join him via xbox.

Point is 20K for a pre-owned 'current' gen console with lower fidelity and lower performance is way too much.
Infact pre-owned should be 7K, else 11K ish. That makes sense, maybe kids would be happy with that.
When was last time you got a system for 7k? 2004 maybe, that PS2.

you don’t feel a 94 meta critic game but suicide squad is what appeals to you. Now I know not to take your opinions seriously at allWho cares about scores? I don't need scores to tell me RE4 is already a masterpiece.
But I do find originals to be better.
Ending in RE2 Remake felt a bit abrupt. I was expecting a bit tougher sections at the end that never came.

Not feeling it.
Finished RE2 Remake just yesterday. It was great, but I would rather play the original.

20K for that potato, and a pre-owned one?! f**k no.
Get Series X for 60 k then.
Or better yet, make a PC for 1 lac that outperforms both PS5/Series X. PC prices have reached that point.
Lots of choices.

Wut? Their Extra tier was released recently.

Series S is like a jackpot deal for all the ponies. Get a used one for 20k instead of crying about COD going exclusive
Seriously though, you will get access to stuff like Starfield, Redfall, Minecraft Legends in few months.
Best deal in gaming.

How is Series S + Gamepass for a year for 400?
Also, why isn't digital edition of ps5 an option with ps plus sub as well?
That is an old tweet.

The combat is repetitive because there are basically 2-3 types of enemies, however boss fights are great.
Also its not a rhythm game per se, its an action hack and slash with rhythm elements
Same enemies are not an issue for me. Especially for 10 hrs game.
Unless mechanics are not good or if it's too easy/too hard.
