why would you play on steam for $100 when you could play for almost free on gamepass, especially a new game you want to try out to see if it's worth playing long term
>why would you play on steam for $100
Anyone who unironically payed $100 to play a few days early has brain damage >gamepass

gotta ask, Ive seen so many of these kinds of posters throughout life, that I have to ask what exactly they try to prove with that, dont ALL those kinds posters look like that?
Not him but there are actually over 30 Chinese studios in BG3 credits. Ironically, Larian handled the Chinese localization at their main studio, which is the only one they did locally.
The only alternative to Tencent having their fingers in the whole ordeal is that Larian randomly decided to hire a bunch of Chinese employees one day to handle outsourcing ~70-90% of their work to Chinese studios for no reason whatsoever. The former is the likely case, since Tencent factually meddles with games, having been documented extensively due to them doing it repeatedly.
>are actually over 30 Chinese studios in BG3 credits
No there aren't, you dumbass. There's 5, four of which are specifically localization studios >chinks localizing a foreign work into chinese confuses the autist
There were way more Malaysian studios in the credits in relation to the assistance of development in the game than China.
bg3 had under 1 million on steam (and maybe 5% of that on gog). starfield had several million more concurrent players over steam, consoles, and gamepass
Starfield cost 200 million without marketing, another 150-200 million and got mogged KEK, you cant make this shit up
Fallout 4 peaked at 472k players on steam against 2 consoles and Bethesda launcher, since then steam tripled in size.
In 2023, Starfield can't even beat fallout 4 against ONE dead console (20 million units, steam wipes the floor with it several times) and ONE dead store. >But gamepass 6 million players
1.)Forza Horizon 5 had 10 million players in 2021 and gamepass numbers grew since then
2.)Steam is probably making up 1-2 million of those players. Let's be generous and give 1 million xbox+Microsoft store.
3.)Even a well known flop, Hi-Fi Rush, managed to clear 2 million players thanks to gamepass
4.)Most importantly, steamfags are extremely loyal to their online drm store, which is why claiming they went to Microsoft store is fucking laughable.
5.) In total, the gamepass deal drew 3-4 mil players. But what is "player"? A person clicked on the play button once.
Bonus: >but one million concurrent players bearchuds btfo!
Baldur's Gate also came out on gog, and gog numbers are unknown.
>IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER >NOTHING MATTERS >NUMBER 1 >YOU HAVE TO BE NUMBER 1 >ONLY THE MOST POPULAR THING IS IMPORTANT >THATS WHY I POST ON Ganker THE MOST POPULAR WEBSITE ON THE INTERNET
You have terminal brain damage.
Just spotlighting where the shills are at since it’s never brought up that Bisexual’s Gate redditors and Gankerirgins organized all playing at the same time to juice the numbers. Sonyfags and insecuroes, bisexually-awkward autogynephiles that live to post and play as the girl.
This game dissapointed me. We have 2023 year, and game is worst than 3 years old Cyberpunk except bugs.
1. Graphic of game is not equal. Characters looks like at Andromeda, and are worst than 5+ years old Kingdom Come. People has not faces. They have allways the same look, if you zoom a weapon on them, they just walk. Zero reaction, if you shoot, they will go throught.
But armours and other stuf is great. I have to say that this piece of game is delicious. I can stay and watch my ship and armour for hours.
2. Main story is worst than Fallout 3, even Fallout 4 has better story, where this game has the worst story before this game. Side quest are better, but still tons of fedex.
Imagine that you have to talk with someone at first planet, then you have to back to main npc to another planet. Where are phones, or ship radios?
3. Exploration is the worst since morrowind. Why at random planet are 3 POIs, Included abandoned fabrics and other buildings. Okey maybe it has sense, cause planets are empty, But in 2300, some of them can be settled. Still why at random planets are the same fabrics with the same loot and enemy spawns x15 etc.
4. Flying is dissasted, when enemyies attacking me i am crying. I dont want to fight. I am waiting for mod to delele this encounters.
They make 1 game every 10 years, with tens of thousands of games coming out every year, why do you care so much about how shitty the one bethesda game specifically is?
There really aren't that many good games though. We used to count on Bethesda to be one of the few good ones, but they can no longer be counted on despite insane resources at their disposal. That's why it hurts.
it represents a lot of what I hate about the industry
games directed by corporate suits and focus groups, and developped by californian normalfags whose experience with video games is mostly derived from mobile gaming
Sony has lost A LOT of potential money from not having it. Europoors are also staunchly Snoys and will defend Sony to the death. For free.
They'd rather side with James Stephanie Sterling's chud agenda than just admit a good game isn't on Playstation.
God of War doesn't pretend to be open world, especially in space, which is a word that means spaciousness. Loadings cut spaciousness up and kill the whole purpose.
Because it's not on ps5 lol. I've sunk over 50 hours into this game and enjoying the hell out of it. Not even done with the main story nor a fraction of the side and faction quests. Let them play their 12-20 hours of spiderman 2 and go another two years without games. They'll just get more and more remasters lol and somehow they're satisfied with that. Might as well change it's name to state of play remastered lol
In a perfect world bad games would fail so their developers actually need to improve for their next game. Unfortunately we do not live in that world. That's why Pokemon games keep getting worse and worse but keep selling better and better. When consumers have no standards, publishers can keep lowering their own standards for what's acceptable to ship as a "complete" product.
Todd Howard even lied about taking lessons from Fallout 4 and improving things with the next game. Their next game was Starfield has it has minimal RPG. They didn't do jack shit. And now people are rewarding them for it. They needed a harsh lesson in order to save Elder Scrolls 6 as a game. But these hardheaded fanboys keep vehemently defending it and in turn producing a shittier TES6 for everyone. Good job. All those Skullzi's and other Redditors who can't stop hyping themselves up over it are responsible for the downward spiral of Bethesda. Listen, fanboyism has never ever helped a single series ever. Only intelligent players improve games. The developers have to have a fire lit under their ass, not just comfortably feed garbage to their slave-gamers.
because people are obsessed with it succeeding despite its obvious flaws
it's like they figure bethesda suddenly gets a pass because we "expect" it will be shitty in some way and they are too afraid to have standards
Not sure how Bethesda managed to make discovering the universe so lifeless and monotonous, but most of the exploring plays out like this:
enter your ship - > loading screen -> sit at console and "take off" -> loading screen -> choose new planet -> loading screen -> select landing site on planet -> loading screen -> exit ship -> loading screen -> "explore" procedurally generated planet (kill a few bugs and scan some plants/rocks) -> fast travel back to ship -> loading screen -> go back to step one
. . . sure, you can skip a few of these steps by traveling directly to another planet thousands of light-years away without even entering your ship - but at that point, why do the planets and galaxy systems even exist if they are simply options in a menu?
I've played over 300 hours of Fallout 76 because I love the Fallout universe so much, but Starfield just feels so sterile and devoid of the same heart and character that is so present in their other universes. I can even usually ignore the Bethesda "jank" that often accompanies the launch of their games - but something about Starfield's core mechanics seem inherently flawed as well, and I'm not sure I could even explain why. Whether it was the underdeveloped enemy A.I., the poorly designed base building (a giant material storage container can only hold 150 lbs of items, while the safebox in my bedroom can hold infinite), the emotionless (and ugly) character models, the lackluster main story quests, or just the general lack of adventure - Starfield ultimately proves to be an underwhelming RPG that fails to deliver on most of the promises Todd Howard and the marketing team pushed.
That is not to say that there's nothing good here, the weapon design and shooting mechanics are a vast improvement over their past games, the ship-building is very intuitive, and the scenic landscapes of distant planets and galaxies can be absolutely gorgeous! I just wish I had more of a reason to explore them . . .
Starfield players are busy enjoying the masterpiece, retard. It takes 130 hours for the game to start. Once those 6 million players sit down to review the game the score will skyrocket.
In our world numbers speak for itself. The loudest voice is heard most afar. From that logic it's objective that Starfield destroyed its critics. There are far more people praising it for the masterpiece it is. If you got a problem with it then take it up to mathematics. You are literally fighting futilely against greater numbers here.

Well, it increased during the weekend but not by much. I guess all those that paid early were the only ones willing the pay money for it on steam with a few stragglers on full release and the rest would just rather play on gamepass.
I really hope Cyberpunk's DLC is great. I really do. People need to wake up and look back at Starfield and get some standards. Otherwise they will just Todd Howard-meme way their to a shitty SJW TES6 which Bethesda will certainly create if nobody voices their opinion.
bethesda games also have some of the best legs in the industry. it may not reach 800k+ meme steam peak like ball's gay 3, but it will far outsell that game over time.
You are attributing voluntary fanmade mods for Bethesda, you disingenuous shill. Bethesda are thoroughly incompetent and miraculously lucky to have people create content for them, almost as if they felt sorry for them.
They didn't give a crap about that in the past, yet people just clung to their janky games improving them in ways the incompetent developers could have never. Daggerfall has Daggerfall Unity with zero official support. Morrowind was improved also in so many ways, which was not preplanned by Bethesda. Todd Howard and his band of lying thieves don't get credit for any of this mod content. If Starfield sells it's not because Starfield is selling but because the mods are selling Starfield for the mods.
By the way, Baldur's Gates always remained popular. You keep ignoring the fact that BG3 is a game that will stay popular as well.
baldurs gate 3 wasn't developed by the people who made the first two, so comparing them is moot. it's also a game that will fall off as people finish it. it's already at like 25% retention of its peak concurrency. bethesda games have for decades been games that people play for several hundred or even thousand hours over years. only the most severely mentally ill of cuckolds are going to play baldur's gate 3 for that length of time.
You have to be super dummy to not see it's following the exact same formula as all BG games. Great reviews, highly replayable, now even getting mods. BG3 isn't going to experience any sudden drops. It managed to capture Bioware fans from BG1 to Mass Effect under its umbrella plus new players.

That's not the definition of a sudden drop. For that to happen it has to be dying. If your argument is some arbitrary percentage then you fail to see how many players it currently still has, and will retain.
>Peak playercount is nowhere near Baldur's Gate 3 >Peak playercount is below Fallout 4's on launch
This is abysmal. People are getting tired of Bethesda and their slop.
I won't lie I was temped because a piece of me likes Bethesda jank, but the lack of seamless travel was a big deal breaker for me. Didn't help that they lied about it.
It’s funny that Fallout 4 and Skyrim players haven’t moved to Starfied. Like, I’d imagine those were the ones who ordered the premium edition. So that means they dropped it and probably go their refunds.
stfu!! it didnt!!!!!

Damn that’s fucking sad that fag fucker sim is winning so hard.
it's only fag fucker if the main character is
my whole playthrough has been fag killer
The mogging will continue until morale improves.
Xbots on Twitter are taking a victory lap because Starfield 'beat' BG3 with 1 million concurrent overall. Embarrassing.
1 million concurrent players is in fact more than 500k concurrent players
One million concurrent across:
1. Steam
2. Xbox
3. GamePass platforms
vs
500K at full price on Steam alone (GOG numbers unknown).
Totally the same thing.
Jesus... all time peak doesn't even reach the currently BG3 numbers.
I know. It's pretty insane. Bethesda has finally fallen I think.
Larian bros, we can't stop winning.
>BG3 is the moron
How I can tell this pic was made by a Fromdrone lmao
I didn't like the nuAC but it's just a meme.
it really is a great but also terrible time to game. Theres so much to do in both games that im getting basically nothing done

Shut up they are 90% bots, real number is 4000

Even with gamepass this should easily be clearing 600k peak on steam AT LEAST

Stop questioning the official narrative, don't forget about the 6 million players.
No it's not fair it was his turn toddbros what now what do we do?

Why are people so obsessed with this game failing?
because there are no games to play on the ps5 and snoys need to let their impotent rage out before their inevitable suicide
It's too much of a threat for Sony
Because Bethesda needs to suffer for making shitty games. You would feel the same way if you didn't care so much about console war shit.
They make 1 game every 10 years, with tens of thousands of games coming out every year, why do you care so much about how shitty the one bethesda game specifically is?
False bull of sale, that’s why. Fuck em over until they improve.
Because they have 10 years to make a good game and fail miserably. Are you retarded?
And? It doesn't affect you, you can just not play this 1 game and play thousands of other really good games instead
>please don’t attack the multi billion dollar corporations!!
Stfu you fucking robot.
There really aren't that many good games though. We used to count on Bethesda to be one of the few good ones, but they can no longer be counted on despite insane resources at their disposal. That's why it hurts.

Are you old enough to post here?
Don't market it to me, then I will ignore it.
Horse armor is why gaming collapsed, Fuck bethesda
I play on pc
Bethesda is a blight and essentially another Bioware
We could have had The Elder Scrolls 6 by now. Starfield deserves to fail for that alone.
TES6 is going to be a pile of total shit, right from the shitting street.
You WILL enjoy the political agenda in Hammerfell.
if it makes you feel better, in an alternate universe where Bethesda released FO4, FO76, and then TES6 next; TES6 would still be a giant turd.
it represents a lot of what I hate about the industry
games directed by corporate suits and focus groups, and developped by californian normalfags whose experience with video games is mostly derived from mobile gaming
I wonder the same but with the entire opposite; Why are people obsessed with making it look like a success? It's just another Bethesda game
Sony has lost A LOT of potential money from not having it. Europoors are also staunchly Snoys and will defend Sony to the death. For free.

but starfield isn't good game. refund it day 1

It's poorly made, but sure Microcucks, accept garbage that comes your way, you're that desperate at a win, even if it's a 6/10
You just know sonybros would slurp it as well.
My thoughts exactly.
They complain about 5 sec loading screens
When god of war is mostly cut scenes and Sonys eat that up
God of War doesn't pretend to be open world, especially in space, which is a word that means spaciousness. Loadings cut spaciousness up and kill the whole purpose.
The absolute state of third party model brands. Yamauchi laughs in the afterlife louder every day
A specific group of people who reach peak hours during what is early morning/noon for the US are very bitter that it did not come to their console.

It took that long, damn I bet Todd is regretting giving out that Early Access preorder bonus
We did it.
I'm so proud of everyone at Ganker
What's the reasoning behind buying it for $70 USD when it's on gamepass for like $10
This is it, huh, Starfags? This is your great weekend flood. Where are the gorzillion players we were promised?
>b-b-but normal people are out having fun on a Saturday night of course they aren't playing Starfield!
Shit... I guess it's a good game after all!
vpol's crusade has come to an end. They tried to hard but in the end...
>he doesn’t see it…
Don’t tell him bros.
There isn't anything to see. Also why do you talk to yourself?
I agree. Nothing to see there at all, literally whos giving high scores while fans and real critics pan it. It’s over.
In our world numbers speak for itself. The loudest voice is heard most afar. From that logic it's objective that Starfield destroyed its critics. There are far more people praising it for the masterpiece it is. If you got a problem with it then take it up to mathematics. You are literally fighting futilely against greater numbers here.
>against numbers
I assure you the numbers are against Cringefield.
Christian conservative Starfield has 6 million concurrent players, Flop Gate 3 only had 875K. It's a crushing defeat for the leftists.
>muh 6 million
>only 200k playing
Oh I see you choose to believe lies.
The four they choose to put in bold.

>Windows Central

Lol. Lmao even.
Never even heard of most of the rest. Also

Remarkable. I'm surprised they don't have Roger Eberts intellectual estate up there.

>all the standard reviewers don't matter because I don't agree with them
i bet your gay ass agrees with them when they rate your favorite games highly tho
Bass Todd won again it’s a solid game.
Not perfect but it does have the Bethesda magic
The fuck happened here?
Internet went down in India.
Maybe there was a hot fix patch?
Well, it increased during the weekend but not by much. I guess all those that paid early were the only ones willing the pay money for it on steam with a few stragglers on full release and the rest would just rather play on gamepass.
What happened to that million in the first weekend
coped away
>noooo 6 gorillion on gamepass!!! the ceo of xbox said so, it must be true.
Fallout 4 had a higher peak player count
Inb4 gamepass cope
It's not a cope if it exists there. Also Starfield is a new IP.
Starfield is Fallout 4 in space
It even has the bonus of having the same story as Skyrim.
>Also Starfield is a new IP.
So were Elden Ring and Cyberpunk. That didn't stop them from having more players. Being a new IP isn't a good argument.
I really hope Cyberpunk's DLC is great. I really do. People need to wake up and look back at Starfield and get some standards. Otherwise they will just Todd Howard-meme way their to a shitty SJW TES6 which Bethesda will certainly create if nobody voices their opinion.
The other 5,700,000 people are just playing on other platforms. PC just isn't a big platform for moddable shooting games.
Starfield is an incredible game, I initially was irritated by some UI elements but once you get the hang of it it makes sense.
A complaint that worlds are empty, in fucking space, is madness.
It’s one of the most beautiful games I’ve ever played.
bethesda games also have some of the best legs in the industry. it may not reach 800k+ meme steam peak like ball's gay 3, but it will far outsell that game over time.
You are attributing voluntary fanmade mods for Bethesda, you disingenuous shill. Bethesda are thoroughly incompetent and miraculously lucky to have people create content for them, almost as if they felt sorry for them.
yea it turns out when developers allow modders freedom, more people play the game over time. retard.
They didn't give a crap about that in the past, yet people just clung to their janky games improving them in ways the incompetent developers could have never. Daggerfall has Daggerfall Unity with zero official support. Morrowind was improved also in so many ways, which was not preplanned by Bethesda. Todd Howard and his band of lying thieves don't get credit for any of this mod content. If Starfield sells it's not because Starfield is selling but because the mods are selling Starfield for the mods.
By the way, Baldur's Gates always remained popular. You keep ignoring the fact that BG3 is a game that will stay popular as well.
baldurs gate 3 wasn't developed by the people who made the first two, so comparing them is moot. it's also a game that will fall off as people finish it. it's already at like 25% retention of its peak concurrency. bethesda games have for decades been games that people play for several hundred or even thousand hours over years. only the most severely mentally ill of cuckolds are going to play baldur's gate 3 for that length of time.
You have to be super dummy to not see it's following the exact same formula as all BG games. Great reviews, highly replayable, now even getting mods. BG3 isn't going to experience any sudden drops. It managed to capture Bioware fans from BG1 to Mass Effect under its umbrella plus new players.
>BG3 isn't going to experience any sudden drops.
it literally already did retard. it lost 75% of its players.
That's not the definition of a sudden drop. For that to happen it has to be dying. If your argument is some arbitrary percentage then you fail to see how many players it currently still has, and will retain.
STOP THE COUNT
>Peak playercount is nowhere near Baldur's Gate 3
>Peak playercount is below Fallout 4's on launch
This is abysmal. People are getting tired of Bethesda and their slop.
>review score dropped 12 points within a week of release
>getting tired
>getting
I won't lie I was temped because a piece of me likes Bethesda jank, but the lack of seamless travel was a big deal breaker for me. Didn't help that they lied about it.
Everyone seems to agree that the "magics" gone anon
it's certainly gone from the playstation, you seething snoygger.
It’s funny that Fallout 4 and Skyrim players haven’t moved to Starfied. Like, I’d imagine those were the ones who ordered the premium edition. So that means they dropped it and probably go their refunds.
>following user engagement on goyslop products
Poor zoomies, they've got nothing to play
78%
STOP THE FUCKING COUNTTTTTTTTTTTT
LETS GOOOOO BETHESDA BROS
the game is actually fun, its a lot like mass effect which is good
>another game Ganker was wrong about
I'm not surprised
>wrong
kek there's potential for xbox memes in there
Obsidian trannies... I thought we had that victory in the bag...
starfield is still shit, but I'm sure Toddler Howard is happy he won't have his asshole turned inside out by Microsoft
