Bold to go up against Starfield like that.

 

Insomniac has their work cut out if true.


Think it’s the other way, genius. Spider-Man is a HUGE IP with equity outside of gaming as well. Starfield is well.. just there

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.

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.

You’re saying bugthesda will come out with a polished game given their track history and insomniac (with such an excellent track record)  will be poorly optimised ?  Also in terms of scale, starfield is probably bigger and therefore far more likely to be less optimised/ more buggy.

This is hilarious to read.

Taking it to VS thread.
