      I mean they had a crack at making a new game and it’s not really worked that well

      As long as fans keep paying full price for unfinished and buggy mess they will keep doing that.

        The average consumer of games is a 12 year old with Mommy’s credit card

        Though I seriously doubt you are correct in this assertion, I’m not sure how this attitude is helpful?

        It’s like if someone said that the average person complaining about games online was just a loser living in their mom’s basement with too much time on their hands.

            I never claimed you said they were losers, it was part of my hypothetical example. Are you sure you read my comment?

            Nothing was mixed up. You just seem confused with my simple example. My point was that taking an attitude of condescension is unproductive.

            And your premise is flawed from the start, as the average game is definitely much older than you are claiming.

        No thats good for current business. They are forgoing long turn prospects and instead settling for milking an already drying cow. At least rock star make consistently enjoyable products, but even then without the promise of gta 6, gta5 would eventually dry up

    Bethesda lost me for good when they thought Fallout 76 was ready for release and refused to give me a refund when it very much was not.

    I charged back the purchase price and haven’t given them a penny since.

    I guess some people might be interested in that… fallout 4 is fine. I don’t need to replay it.

    Maybe bring that rumored fallout 3 remake out

    Fallout 4 looked like a last gen game when it released, does that mean it’s gonna be a last gen update now?
