>What is a AAA Game? >While there is no official definition for what makes a game “AAA”, this designation has historically been reserved for multi-year game projects with industry-leading budgets ($80m+), sizable development teams, and significant gameplay depth. In short, AAA is an assumed stamp of quality that is granted based on the resources that go into developing and marketing the game versus the success it ultimately achieves in the market. These games are generally created by the industry’s most prestigious studios and are highly anticipated each year.

Stopped reading right there. Dumb fuck.
I know this is a little off topic but it relates to recent controversy with the game. I think bethseda has very deep problem. Todd was gushing about facial animations, rigging, rendering realistic people. But I think he forgot the fantasy aspect where people do not inherent want to see reality, they want to see what is believable. Making so many people ugly is an issue. I understand the racial component is important to people, but what is even more urgent is the need to make characters feel believable. And what people do with fiction is look for the idealized version of what is believable. They intentional tried to depict a reality that many within those racial communities don't see as beauty, across the board. I don't know about the politics and idealism. But you can't do that to people, they don't respond well. You will get hate from all sides. Bethseda made some truly gruesome stereotyped NPCs and it is offensive. In a way I think Todd is somewhat isolated in a bubble, and within that bubble he talks to very progressive people, people that can sometimes be overzealous and ignorantly racist, the ugliness of everything reflects that and as a black dude, I feel it.
I think he was just grasping at shit to talk up about the game. Him talking about the all new lighting engine reminded me of FO4 when he said the exact same thing lol. And when they re-released Skyrim and one of the actual honest to god selling points he was trying to talk up was "we have godrays now"

Bg3 isn't aaa, it's single-a or double-a at best, which is why it's so hilarious to see it utterly mogging starfield. Really highlights the extent to which Bethesda just mailed it in.
GTA 4 was 15+ years ago. what does that have to do with anything? completely different industries. Angry Birds has more people that work on its games than Pac Man did. What's the point of making that comparison?
Video games in 2008 =/= video games in 2023. The industry is many, many times bigger than it was back then and games take many, many times longer to complete. Not difficult to parse what I meant by that you low IQ cheese brain mong.
GTA 4 was released in 2008. That's 15 years ago. Are you incapable of figuring out that the industry has changed in 15 years and that the definition of AAA changed with it? 15 years is the difference between the NES and the GameCube, imagine saying a gamecube game is AAA because it had the same budget as Super Mario Brothers 3.

There has never been such a divisive game before where so many people hate it and so many others pretend to love it just because of who released it. If it was multiplat and people had to pay full price instead of $10, it would be Cyberpunk all over again

It's honestly insulting that Starfield even gets compared to BG3. A big win for Larian that they made a game of that quality. Those Belgian fucks did a lot of things right.
Starfield is nowhere in the same league. Hell, it's not even in the same league as Sea of Stars.
I generally don't buy games so I wouldn't know what I could compare Starfield to. Even Cyberpunk at launch is better than Starfield.
I like the game but I think the "least buggy bethesda game" spheal isn't exactly true, Or at least I didn't have this constant sense of forboding while playing the game. Maybe it's because I've already encountered two bugs relating to the "100% persistance of anything in your ship" that's resulted in me needing to restart to an earlier save so now I'm constantly checking the inside of my ship in case some random NPC decided to start squatting for the 3rd time and it's been too long in my playthrough that i don't have an earlier save to revert to. Seriously, twice now i've gotten up from my seat, turned around, and there's jsut some random miner on my ship hanging around with no way to get rid of them outside of selling your ship or deleting the part of the ship that they're in.
my uncle knows someone who drinks with sven larian and one night when he'd had a few too many he admitted they had about 700,000 computers set up in their office just logged into the bg3 launcher

Todd was definately talking about the face scanning thing a lot. Is face scanning really easy to do or something? What I've seen is the opposite of impressive.
No, no... I'm an audio engineer, I want to say a few things about this company, and I can do that with a decent quest mod that I know I can make. I don't inherent hate the work put into creating the game. I've seen some models that look fantastic.
Honestly speaking, having looked at several people's impressions, I can't believe this game is getting more than 6 scores.
The game isn't mediocre like the space lesbians game, aka outer worlds, nor it is more than good enough, I think they struck a rock with the use of generative technologies, it has made the game overwhelmingly big but completely empty and pointless, the zones and characters handcrafted by bethesda are actually good enough, but everything made by the AI is just bad, really bad.
I'd be hardpressed to think there's people who enjoy a thousand planets with absolutely nothing to see just made so you lose your time roaming around them.
It's not just that, even the actual HAND MADE stuff is probably 80% a bland and boring slog with no character or identity. It just feels like a no name brand fallout clone without the endearing setting or world. It's just like a CoD rpg or something. Completely bland and by the numbers.
and then you have to do it 10 more times to "finish" the game
[...]
what was one of the main marketing argument already?
oh yeah "we're not like the others, you get your full game with the initial price"
yep 200 hours of content where the last 20 is a bit rocky is still a pretty full game where as betheslop made 1/3rd of a game, filled in the gaps with AI generated garbage, and said "here do this 10 times over thatll keep these fucking gumps satisfied until tes 6"
interesting, but I don't care about Starfield, please remain focused on the current subject instead of pointing fingers.
but you can't right? I don't blame you for acting like that since the entire marketing of Baldur's Gate was to be a direct comparison with Diablo 4 which was one of the worst disasters in recent history, suddenly The "no battle pass" became a premium argument when every singleplayer game in existence didn't have one for example

I was shilling this game for 72 days and not only I did not get a singler dollar from Todd, this game is also GARBAGE.
WHAT THE FUCK! WHAT THE FUCK. FUCK YOU. I literally shilled hard and didn't even get to shill something good. Fuck you fucking retarded bethesda fucks fuck you. I was l literally shilling it in all July and August. Fuck you bitch. Fuck you fuck off fucking shilling shill. I'm done shilling.

No, because they're reskinned abominations of the monsters from Oblivion and Fallout still
Not going to lie there's been several times where I was tempted to buy this game.
But then I remember how the roleplaying is non-existent, moreso then fallout 4 or 76, and how it's full of absolute jank, glitches and bugs.
I might buy it when it's on sale for 5 bucks a year from now or something though.
it's choosing thing from a list
with infinite NG+ so you can max out every perk on the list
you can also do all the quests in one shot with all the factions
its just fallout 4 in space, literally
Good for you just wait because the whole creation kit will be released I think next year so the modding scene is still barebone Also it's an average generic "mid" Game and if you hate fallout 4 even with mods don't play this shit.

It's honestly insulting that Starfield even gets compared to BG3. A big win for Larian that they made a game of that quality. Those Belgian fucks did a lot of things right.
Starfield is nowhere in the same league. Hell, it's not even in the same league as Sea of Stars.
I generally don't buy games so I wouldn't know what I could compare Starfield to. Even Cyberpunk at launch is better than Starfield.
Hogwarts and BG3 up there too
Both have the same shills pretending their chud infested game is "secretly based" while also calling you a chud for disliking the gay shit in them
I like the game but I think the "least buggy bethesda game" spheal isn't exactly true, Or at least I didn't have this constant sense of forboding while playing the game. Maybe it's because I've already encountered two bugs relating to the "100% persistance of anything in your ship" that's resulted in me needing to restart to an earlier save so now I'm constantly checking the inside of my ship in case some random NPC decided to start squatting for the 3rd time and it's been too long in my playthrough that i don't have an earlier save to revert to. Seriously, twice now i've gotten up from my seat, turned around, and there's jsut some random miner on my ship hanging around with no way to get rid of them outside of selling your ship or deleting the part of the ship that they're in.
my uncle knows someone who drinks with sven larian and one night when he'd had a few too many he admitted they had about 700,000 computers set up in their office just logged into the bg3 launcher
REMINDER IT RUNS SHIT ON PURPOSE

I know this is a little off topic but it relates to recent controversy with the game. I think bethseda has very deep problem. Todd was gushing about facial animations, rigging, rendering realistic people. But I think he forgot the fantasy aspect where people do not inherent want to see reality, they want to see what is believable. Making so many people ugly is an issue. I understand the racial component is important to people, but what is even more urgent is the need to make characters feel believable. And what people do with fiction is look for the idealized version of what is believable. They intentional tried to depict a reality that many within those racial communities don't see as beauty, across the board. I don't know about the politics and idealism. But you can't do that to people, they don't respond well. You will get hate from all sides. Bethseda made some truly gruesome stereotyped NPCs and it is offensive. In a way I think Todd is somewhat isolated in a bubble, and within that bubble he talks to very progressive people, people that can sometimes be overzealous and ignorantly racist, the ugliness of everything reflects that and as a black dude, I feel it.
I think the Indians working on the game just put themselves or family members in it as NPCs.
Todd was definately talking about the face scanning thing a lot. Is face scanning really easy to do or something? What I've seen is the opposite of impressive.
>STARFIELD SHILL
>BG3 SHILL
What if...
BOTH SHILL????????????????????????
bg3 is the better game objectively
then why aren't you playing it instead of shilling it gay?
you have no idea what shilling means do you
bot reply
yours is yes
>dog shit is better than cat shit objectively
meme aside it's true
It's The Most non-shilled..
Yes. Why is this unremarkable chudcore game being pushed so fucking hard? It's fucking Bethesda, they were never good.
>chud try to divide and conque
bethesa is the anti chud game for exellance
not a single movie inside it
Ahem, khalistan is a real country
I'm picking up modding with this game. Bethseda kinda pissed me off. Now I want to fuck with them.
honestly?
don't waste your time
No, no... I'm an audio engineer, I want to say a few things about this company, and I can do that with a decent quest mod that I know I can make. I don't inherent hate the work put into creating the game. I've seen some models that look fantastic.
Honestly speaking, having looked at several people's impressions, I can't believe this game is getting more than 6 scores.
The game isn't mediocre like the space lesbians game, aka outer worlds, nor it is more than good enough, I think they struck a rock with the use of generative technologies, it has made the game overwhelmingly big but completely empty and pointless, the zones and characters handcrafted by bethesda are actually good enough, but everything made by the AI is just bad, really bad.
I'd be hardpressed to think there's people who enjoy a thousand planets with absolutely nothing to see just made so you lose your time roaming around them.
It's not just that, even the actual HAND MADE stuff is probably 80% a bland and boring slog with no character or identity. It just feels like a no name brand fallout clone without the endearing setting or world. It's just like a CoD rpg or something. Completely bland and by the numbers.
Only when you consider current shilling.
I believe both Nogwarts and BG3 had more shilling in their peak shill periods.
I agree, just got to act 3. And I entirely get it. Jesus christ
>oh no after 50h it gets a bit wonky!!! OH NO!!
more like 100 hours
whereas starfield gets boring after around 5 hours
and then you have to do it 10 more times to "finish" the game
yep 200 hours of content where the last 20 is a bit rocky is still a pretty full game where as betheslop made 1/3rd of a game, filled in the gaps with AI generated garbage, and said "here do this 10 times over thatll keep these fucking gumps satisfied until tes 6"
what was one of the main marketing argument already?
oh yeah "we're not like the others, you get your full game with the initial price"
as opposed to starfields "you need 5-10 mods to make the game run and look almost okay"
interesting, but I don't care about Starfield, please remain focused on the current subject instead of pointing fingers.
but you can't right? I don't blame you for acting like that since the entire marketing of Baldur's Gate was to be a direct comparison with Diablo 4 which was one of the worst disasters in recent history, suddenly The "no battle pass" became a premium argument when every singleplayer game in existence didn't have one for example
>but I don't care about Starfield
kek why are you in this thread
because i'm interested in the subject of this thread: the aggressive marketing surrounding recent releases, starfield happened to be the latest example, and a basic clickbait made by the fag
weird how these threads are always samefag city
NMS has more content than starfield
BG3 has more depth than starfield
But xbotters and todd lickers do not want to acknowledge that
starfield is more fun to play than NMS
internet historian lied to us all
Kek no just no
NMS has literally nothing to do in the entire game
Thats starfield
what’s your favourite NMS quest and what’s your favourite NMS character bro
playing rust on an empty server has more going on than NMS
wow competition between which of the 3 turds is least stinky
brainrotted consolechud
You didn't play any of those games
Why do you think that is retarded consolechud?
Because you can't afford a computer to run them and you don't play video games?
Swing and a miss
Care to try again? Hopefully with less projection this time.
How is it projection if I played all 3 and am trudging my way through starslop on my PC right now?
>YOU DIDN'T SHOVEL THAT SHIT IN YOUR MOUTH
>HOW CAN YOU TELL ITS BAD
lol
lmao even
OWNED
BY
MICROSOFT
its literally just stink bait for gamepass, made to trick people into a monthly subscription and let them use those numbers to further sell the myth. there is not a single publication on their official award slide that isnt microsoft owned, partnered, or paid for
BG3 is as indie as Star Citizen is.
so, completely independent?
Indie loses all meaning if you take budget out of it and just go by who owns it. So all Valve games are indie games too?
Skyrim was an indie game!
Indie literally means independent. If they're not relying on a publisher they're independent.
colloquial usage means small budget and small crew.
Says who? It's always meant independent
says this thread
this thread says the belgian government is running a botfarm to inflate bg3 player numbers who cares what these mongs think
no one is going to label BG3 indie.
they aren't independent of their ip license holder.
yes they are anon they licensed the property they weren't hired or commissioned to make the game
so they have free creative reign? the license holder has absolutely no say?
I was shilling this game for 72 days and not only I did not get a singler dollar from Todd, this game is also GARBAGE.
WHAT THE FUCK! WHAT THE FUCK. FUCK YOU. I literally shilled hard and didn't even get to shill something good. Fuck you fucking retarded bethesda fucks fuck you. I was l literally shilling it in all July and August. Fuck you bitch. Fuck you fuck off fucking shilling shill. I'm done shilling.
SSIIIR !!! DO NOT
People shilling a 85 metacritic game wtf. These bethesda shills are retarded
please understand us
A lot of games get shilled hard especially if it's a big AAA game. Shame Starfield is dogshit, I don't care if good games are shilled.
The shilling with ESL posts, the whole "6 million players"
Marketing for this game is fucking awful if you look closely
I do wonder if they used 6 million to try to get gamers to meme. Fucked up if true.
Good game, futureproofed engine
>Is this the most shilled AAA slop in Ganker?
NO
It's the most shilled AAA tortanic and I'm tired of pretending it's not
>pronoun field
>it's not a big deal
>bans anyone who opposes the rainbow religion
wrong font fag
>most shilled AAA slop on Ganker
Oh, so you weren't around for the Re4Demake, TLOU2, Dead Space Punjabi Very Good Edition(TM), SF6, BOTW, TOTK, Elden Ring, Rangarok, Diablo Immoral, Diablo 4 and BG3?
Forgot about Cyberspunk too
Only bg3 comes close, tencent c-suite feeling threatened I guess
>TLOU2
>shilled
huh?
>trying to insist that a game that got fellated hard by the entire industry for a long as time and which STILL gets "this is the best game ever made and you're just stupid" threads was never shilled
Are you actually trying to pull this trick on someone that's on the spectrum? We are excellent at noticing.
>playing rust on an empty server
That would still have more going on than a typical Starfield planet
your typical Starfield planet literally has more going on than 10 million planets in NMS kek, you clearly don’t understand how absolutely empty NMS is
Please do enlighten me about all the things a starfield planet has "going on"
more than NMS procgen slop kek, at least the creatures in Starfield aren’t retarded procgen abominations
NMS is possibly the most boring game ever released
>the same empty flat wastelands with some type of creature and copy-pasted outposts inbabited by the same varieties of "spaceman with gun"
>repeat hundreds of times
>this is better than Starfield
>the same empty flat wastelands with some type of creature and copy-pasted outposts inbabited by the same varieties of "spaceman with gun"
yep that’s NMS, at least Starfield has quest and shit you can do
it’s an incredible achievement that NMS manages to feel more empty than mine craft superflat maps
Wow. You know what else has quests? No Man's Sky.
radiant slop doesn’t count, there’s no actual writing or stories in NMS, there’s no real content
Sounds like Starfield then because that game is nothing but fetch quest checklists and shooting galleries
>more than NMS procgen slop kek, at least the creatures in Starfield aren’t retarded procgen abominations
No, because they're reskinned abominations of the monsters from Oblivion and Fallout still
that apply only to Baldur gayry 3, i don't remember seeing 30 threads about BOTW daily for weeks or months
there was a full month of shilling for bowt just like every game released the last 15 years
idk
I will blame everyone except Todd. He's a good man with a grand vision. But knowing him, I know he will make it work.
>game releases
>pass users """buy""" the game immediately
>this indicates the game is popular
yids
Not going to lie there's been several times where I was tempted to buy this game.
But then I remember how the roleplaying is non-existent, moreso then fallout 4 or 76, and how it's full of absolute jank, glitches and bugs.
I might buy it when it's on sale for 5 bucks a year from now or something though.
the roleplaying is far better than fallout 4, which literally has none
is it role playing or just choosing things in a list?
it's choosing thing from a list
with infinite NG+ so you can max out every perk on the list
you can also do all the quests in one shot with all the factions
its just fallout 4 in space, literally
Good for you just wait because the whole creation kit will be released I think next year so the modding scene is still barebone Also it's an average generic "mid" Game and if you hate fallout 4 even with mods don't play this shit.
baldur gate 3 shilling campaign still going strong a month after launch, especially during europoors and third world subhumans hours
BG3 is still the better game, tard
Cybertrash77 is
